Had this not been the case, then either the GCN is forward compatible or that there'd be Wii controller kits for the GCN.
I mean, it's not like someone was playing it for a while, then looked down and saw a GCN and said "Eeewww, I've been playing on a previous-gen console."
More seriously, the big difference between most of these leaks and the Plame one is that it was an intentional attack by those in power to discredit a critic (or just get back at them). Not sure if that's quite what you said or not.
Actually... it's pretty close, but not for the same reason.
Roughly speaking, adding more lines of code (or compressing what should be multiple lines into one) adds more complexity to the application (when you look at debugging, maintaining, and improving it). It is not a measure of value, but can demonstrate how complex an application has become.
Small amounts of nudity are allowed in PG13 (I think they rate it as "brief nudity").
However, having a character's model be nude constantly throughout gameplay is a bit more.
The others are right, logic doesn't play into it as well and people still have the image of video games being a kid's thing (and so they try to protect the kids).
If not the ethernet into your home or office, they will control the wireless access points.
If it's a free service in one of the many coffee shops that offer it, then you can't really expect them not to try to find some way to make a profit off of the free bandwidth they are giving you.
Well, it's not a game console exactly. But there are people who are waiting for it to come out before buying a new computer with a soon-to-be obsolete operating system. It will boost the sales right before the end of the year and give the investors some good news and probably boost the stock price some.
What's a power supply, carpet and TV in comparison to a 360? I mean, as long as the 360 is made of heavy, fire-resistant and bullet-proof materials, it can survive even the most intense of infernos caused by an over-heated power supply.
Plus, Microsoft will make money on selling replacement copies of all the games that melted from the heat.
With rising concerns about spam and viruses sent by e-mail, we shall return days when mail was secure because it was written on paper. Riders on horseback would race across the expansive west with only the worry of Indians and dehydration.
I mean seriously, after scalping the rider would the Indian then send a slightly reworded copy of each letter?
Many businesses, Microsoft included, have lost their focus of "how can we make / save the most money" and have been willing to throw away billions (or not pick up billions) in an effort to dominate several sectors of the market. It's a bad business strategy. Make 5 billion now instead of 10 billion in 20 years.

Ofcourse it leaks. This should be filed under "old."
Now... if it didn't leak, that'd be news.
Tell that to the captain of the Titanic...

Hmm, drug addict or manager...
While not always the case, because of some managers one wonders which group is smarter.
Well, we might not be. But this has happened for past operating systems, and I would assume that Microsoft is banking there are some for this release.

"We won't be releasing it any time soon, but please enjoy the view."
Tom Clancy's Army of Three will revolutionize the tactical shooter in the same way Rainbow 6, Rogue Spear, Ghost Recon, and Splinter Cell have.

Pentagon fires warning shot over RIAA's bow.
Congressional inquiry expected.
As in, commit electronic seppuku?
They are not free. Phone companies in America keep forgetting this detail.

Some day I'll figure it out. Thanks.
Intel admits that it's loosing to AMD?
What's going to happen next? Politicians admitting they lied to the people?
There are only twelve types of BG spinoffs.
But there are many copies...
And they have a plan.
To have their own TV network. The Cylon Fiction Channel... (or Cy-Fi for short).
I apparently wasn't clear. I meant:

Imagine the Princess inside that Castle.
... or another castle.
But we do make as much as doctors...
Atleast, those of us who have the slightest bit of experience and aren't pot heads.
