But that's my point. What if Sony is trying to get into the arcade market and reshape the arcades to what they were in the 80's and early 90's? The PS3 is a little too high for the general consumer market, but would it be too high for the arcade owners?
It would also be this hybrid between a gaming cafe and arcade. Kids would gather to play multiplayer games online with their friends. I think I would head back to the arcade if this feature was available.
What if Sony is changing their focus from a home console to an arcade console? Bring people back to the arcades at the malls, but now the consoles will be linked to the net. Sounds like a pretty good idea. I haven't been to an arcade since PS1.
The article does mention they want to put 15000 units in stores for people to pay and play.
What is the percentage rate of items getting stuck, like in a food vending machine? I would be pretty pissed if I just fed the damn machine $250 only to see it dangle at the end of the arm. Then some dude puts down his $250 and gets 2 ipods for the price of one.
I say lets do it. Like the others have mentioned, phones already exist on planes. People make things out to be worse than they are going to be. It's like when a parent tells the kid that they are moving. The kids like "this sucks, I'll lose all my friends and I'll hate the new place." Then they move and the kid loves the new place and makes new friends.
I bet $20 that you'll be using your phone just as much as the next guy or gal. I bet people complained when TV's were being added to planes, but they aren't a problem.
I prefer it any day to pops and crackles. Also I'm tired of flipping that damn record over or having to get up to put on a new one on because the last one only held one song on each side. No one can hear the difference and after several play throughs the grooves become worn and you lose the quality on records.
$150 is too low. I didn't think they would make $250, but that's awesome they did. The only problem I see is $10-15 for classic games. That's a little steep for software that's older than some of its users. How about $2-5 price point? Those games aren't even worth that much now.
I don't remember hearing that the vote or die failed. In fact I heard more younger voters voted in 2004 as well as older voters.
This could work if they used it like a lobby group. Keep all gamers up to date on issues and how it will effect them. Then organize some places to protest and see if anyone shows up.
Maybe make a game called "Protester" where your character has to protest in different parts of town. Then if it doesn't work they get in a car, a la GTA, and chase down the politician in a limo and get him/her to listen. Oh yeah, and there's weapons of all sorts including a rocket launcher.
It's all part of Lucas' plan. If he gave you the original in good condition, then what would you buy from him. So he puts out the crappy version now, then it goes in the Disney Vault. Then he releases the semi better crappy version of the original originals. 15 years from now you'll be able to get the original originals in high quality super format.
When you create an account you get the opportunity to create one article. Then the moderators get to vote on the article (because lets face it those editors read everything posted). If you get enough votes, then you can post another article. If you don't get enough votes, then you have to fix up the article until it can get enough votes to write a new article.
The votes will also go into a total votes system. So after a month or so of submitting one article at a time you accumulate 100 votes, then you can level up to someone who can submit 2 more articles, then those articles need less votes to allow 2 more article entries.
So those who contribute a lot will have the opportunity to do so, and those who want to goof around can only do it to one page. Once you reach a certain level, then you'll be able to go in and correct articles or dispute articles you find incorrect.
What confuses me even more is that we only get one day to vote and it's on a Tuesday. Why hasn't this been moved to a weekend and to several days to vote? In Florida we have early voting, why not just make it official and call it Vote Week. It's like Spring Break Week, but cooler and the chicks working there are hotter.
I don't know if they should go away, but for crying out loud adapt to the Internet. This is the new format. They all need to work together and remarket their products. They still expect people to buy their CD's by the billions as if CD's are still new technology. They still think they can put out 1-2 songs and then throw in 8 other songs to fill up a disc. The market is changing, so they need to change with it.
The author should have made a new buzzword for it, like "Fishing 2.0". By the way I am very interested in the next gen motorcycle that gets unlimited miles to the gallon. Do you have pictures and specs? This could revolutionize the world.

Most businesses will keep using MS, but for home use I don't understand why more people use Open Office.
You aren't alone. My freedom for security just doesn't sound like what I've come to know as America. Well I guess it couldn't have lasted forever.

I hear it's really just COL (China Online).

were you looking for links. Here's one that is good and has some funny videos on it.
They need to bring the price down even more and also make the Zune a wearable head piece, kind of like Billy boy is wearing on the icon above. Tight.
What about "mother"? She likes to hear from me every once in a while.
I've also got patents on the following:

Christmas in Japan is actually a big deal. Even though it doesn't contain the Christian influence the big gift giving part is.

what about the nurf gun
I say test it on pedophiles and other criminals serving time. Microwaves on the testicals can't be good.
I went to a job interview dressed as The Riddler, but was turned away. Riddle me this, why didn't I get the job?

We need mandatory voting here in the US. That way politicians have to kiss everyones butt. I would like my butt kissed every once in a while.
