And I have been for 4 years. It's a great experience, it's totally retro and I find it a lot more immersive than some of the "impressive" graphical MMO's can offer. Imagination is equally as powerful as graphics if you ask me.:D
Even if the laws were updated, wouldn't everything PRIOR to the new law be grandfathered under the old law still? Kind've defeats the purpose in this case, but will be good 70 years down the road.:)
They've been getting a lot of fierce, FREE, competition from ioi over at VGChartz. VGChartz was doing month to month comparisons of their data versus NPD's. They even come out with weekly North American figures opposed to NPD's former monthly figures. David Riley has had a lot of encounters with ioi and has acted very childishly, as seen by this blog release, calling these "amateurs" sociopaths. The real reason NPD is doing this is to try and go for a cash grab to those that want the data, and to more than likely sue anyone that releases the monthly figures, and to try and snuff out these amateur tracking sites.

Such blatant racism. Not all Asians are short. But we all know most asians are very intelligent. You really think lowering the price to their eye level will make them buy it?
That Cedega supports DX10, that way if you don't WANT to move over to Vista (At least legally, but that's not what/.ers do:P) you can do it for free and do it on a dual boot on XP, or go full over with Linux. Also, we're all aware someone will make a hack around to play DX10 games on Vista anyways, so it's a win win in any situation. No Vista, more games:D FREEEEEE
At least/. can put it in perspective. Comparing launch dates, Wii comes out on top. Compare the holiday sales, yes the 360 had MORE sales, but you need to remember... How many 360's were collecting dust on shelves BEFORE the Wii and PS3 were even released? What console currently remains sold out and has a grey market on ebay still? What consoles sit on shelves to this day now, even with a recent launch? Real winner? We know who it is.
I was VERY interested in this MMO. But ANYTHING that is Pay to Play, REGARDLESS of the amazing content and driven story line it MAY or MAY NOT have, NO GAME, EVER, is worth paying monthly fees for. The only exception is if it's a VERY low amount, like $10/year, or if you don't have to buy the game as well, which I doubt.
Don't use M$ products if you can afford to. Don't support them and voice your opinions to others in your field. Perhaps enough noise will grab the attention of the PR department and get it changed in the future.
I personally would avoid anything M$ related and find other ways to get your work done, even if it means paying a premium for a MAC.
because of it's extensive handheld games. RPG's are HUGE in Japan, and I'm personally a huge RPG fan. Another great RPG addition to the DS will further increase the divide with the PSP.
Jack Thompson will now use this as part of his anti-video game rhetoric. Getting all 3 games in ONE deal shall increase the likelyhood of your child killing someone by THREE or maybe 3.5!
Are any of you surprised about this? Reminds me of an elderly person that has a problem with shitting their pants frequently. To prevent ruining their pants, they start to wear some depends. The next day they've shit through their depends and ruined their pants again. Quit your shitting IE.

Does that mean if Godzilla wants to make an appearance and work for the first time in a few decades, he'll be denied?
Godzilla: What do you mean I can't go back to work? Royalties are at an all time low and I gotta support my kids!
Executive: Ya.... Thing is... We're going to face some fines.... So uh... Ya...
Godzilla: Maybe I could eat some of the fatties to help out?
Executive: Maybe....? We'll get back to you.
Godzilla: WE BOTH KNOW YOU FUCKING WON'T!
What about the sumo wrestlers?! Don't they get a say!?

They just want you to drink the koolaid. Drink it. FUCKING DRINK OUR MOTHERFUCKING KOOLAID.... Please?
Didn't realize Coca Cola made powdered cola.
Women are perfect, and they're physical objects. Or at least they've always told me that...
Battle to the death. If they won't fight for their lives for a job, why let them manage your company?
On the ass of a hooker.... I know, good huh.

The picture of the DS bleeding is inaccurate. The DS prints money so it bleeds coins. GOD, GET IT RIGHT.

because the Phantom will destroy all the consoles in the end!
Of the iPod seems to be that of the PS2 in the last gen of games. Zune needs to be able to play Halo on it for it to be a huge success.

Just send a bunch of scornful women to the moon, and there will be LOTS of ice in no time.
By that I mean, I hate my wife.
