  1. 360? PS2? on What is the Best Console Controller of All Time? · · Score: 1

    I don't really get why these two make it up there -they have the worst feature for a controller; namely, the two control stick things (forgot the names). I could barely play games that used both. Call me a traditionalist, but the one stick (or just the d-pad) works fine for me, although granted it would need more for, say, a 3d FPS. But I'd bet it would still work better than the 3-4 hands needed to play a simple game of Halo.

  2. Re:A doorstop on The Future of the PSP · · Score: 2, Informative

    A gaming device? The PSP does that-it's just that the games are basically handheld PS2 games. Sure, there's original stuff out there, but there are lots of ports, and those just haven't propelled it along.

  3. SL not Pyramid on Financial Analyst Calls Second Life a Pyramid Scheme · · Score: 2, Funny

    Of course it's not a pyramid. I've noticed a distinct lack of mummies!

  4. Re:Sony's dumb decision, with historical precedent on No Love For The Blu-Ray · · Score: 1

    Sony is selling a Blu-ray player on its own. $999. No joke. The game console+Blu-ray is cheaper than Blu-ray. It's ridiculous!

  5. Re:#1 problem. on What's the Problem With US High Schools? · · Score: 1

    What's real? Reading/Writing: Fiction. Nuff said. Science: Consider all the untested theories that could be taught. And some proven things seem more unlikely than anything religious. Not everything being taught in schools is as "real" as you might think.

  6. Re:News for Nerds, STUFF THAT MATTERS! on Surprising Burning Crusade Details for WoW · · Score: 1

    Last I checked (now), slashdot was news for nerds. WoW news does appeal to a large number of nerds.

  7. Missing option on Stephen Colbert vs The Hungarian Government · · Score: 1

    So no one will try voting for the Abe Vigoda Memorial Bridge? For shame!

  8. Re:Nintendoh! on Revolution Horsepower Revealed · · Score: 1

    But they're not competing. In an interview, Shigeru Miyamoto said that he didn't see it as a competition between Nintendo and any of the other things.

  9. Space-aging on Cosmic Radiation Speeds up Aging in Space? · · Score: 1

    So now it's going to be harder to convince others to send people to the moon.

  10. Re:Hahahaha! on Windows Vista Delayed Again · · Score: 1

    I actually somewhat agree with you. It's not a big deal that Vista is delayed a month or two. ou have a good computer already, and I think the world can stand to wait for this. Plus, if more time is given, the finished product will be better. Simple as that.

  11. Re:Fill Me In on No New Series of Futurama · · Score: 1

    I fail to see how this applies to anything.

  12. Re:Two Down, One to Go... on Futurama Returns · · Score: 1

    Well, the problem with that is those two shows clearly were no better.

  13. Re:No Katamari Damacy? on Japan's Top 100 Games · · Score: 1

    Apparently, it wasn't as popular there as it was here.

  14. Re:And people are already counting them out... on 10 Million Nintendo DS Units Sold Since Launch · · Score: 1

    The GC and N64 were successful-just not at the range of the other consoles. Just because they weren't #1 doesn't mean they were a failure. They must have done well enough to have more coming.

  15. Wait on MS Responds To 360 Glitches · · Score: 1, Troll

    Let me get this straight. People paid like 300 bucks for a 360, and they don't even work right sometimes? Its seems like they were just trying to be the first next generation console out even if it was unfinished.

  16. Wht makes Xbox run on How The 360 Works · · Score: 4, Funny

    4 words: A wizard did it.

  17. Re:Correction: on Sequels Turning Off Game Consumers · · Score: 1

    I honestly can't see what you see as a problem with MP 1&2. They both made an excellent jump to 3D, and I'm willing to bet that what I saw as insane difficulty is most likely (although I don't know this for a fact) standard in fps's now. Plus, it's Wind Waker, not Walker.

  18. Re:Yet another dup... on The 11 Year Soap Bubble · · Score: 1

    No, #2's the box. #1's the wrapping the item came in.
