Game design-wise, co-op 3D is a different beast. 2D allows multiple players to share the same screen, therefore "share the experience". In a full 3D game, you have to do split screen. Which is possible and has been done -- but it's very hard to make those games foster the same feeling of cooperation. You pay more attention to your own side/corner of your screen, instead of the big picture. Everyone's free to wonder off and do their own thing -- and so, they do. The only way 3D co-op is done well if when players are FORCED to work together, which generally requires puzzles. That's why Portal 2 could work in this environment. But other genres? I haven't seen it figured out yet.
More and (arguably) better exclusives. Check out this list: http://www.ign.com/wikis/xbox-... It seems even at first, until you scroll down more and realize the Xbox One list doesn't even make it halfway. (29 for XBone, 70 for PS4)

I've always assumed that's the reason they're making phones thinner. More likely to break means more likely Joe Schmo will have to buy a new one after it breaks 8 months in.
Just to clarify, this ruling is in regards to their Steam page. Most of the blatant OMS false advertising was done through Sean Murray in interviews and conferences. Unfortunately, this doesn't cover that.
He's a delightful person, much beloved in the UK, but definitely not as known in the US. He's known for being 1/2 of the comedy sketch duo "Fry & Laurie" (Laurie being Hugh Laurie, aka Gregory House, M.D.) and for being the current host of the British program Q.I.
Can't vouch for quality since I haven't tried many providers... but it is super affordable. Their usage is tiered, but they'll automatically move you without any penalty to whatever tier you use for that month, even if you use a lower tier. Yes, that means if you're on a 500 MB plan and you use less than than 100 MB, they'll charge you for the 100 MB for that month. How crazy is that?
My cell phone bill went down $15 switching from a voice + text w/ AT&T to voice + text + data with Ting. Only downside is that the phones aren't subsided, so I paid $200 for mine. But obviously the prices are still going to work in my favor in the long run, especially since I'm not a phone hopper and can easily see myself keeping this one for 3-4 years.
Wish every prof was like you. My gf is now taking a class where the professor requires them to take notes in the book. And the kicker? He also checks beforehand to make sure there aren't any notes written already. Which means she has to spend $120 to buy a new one at the book store, instead of the.50c (+ $5 shipping) to get the same textbook, same edition from Amazon.
Complete bullshit.
I've also had cataracts surgery, when I was a toddler. And I've always noticed that UV has bothered me and not other people, but I've never thought about if I "see" UV, or at least see it in a way that others can't. Sometimes it's enough to cause my eyes to spasm. (In fact, my aversion is so strong, while reading this summary my mind _imagined_ seeing UV light, and my eyes spasmed for a few seconds in reaction.) Anyway, now I'm wondering if anyone else has this sort of reaction.
Intentionally leaving out 3/4 and 6/8, because those are too common. Oh, and also leaving out the more "proggy" bands like Tool and Dream Theater, because then this would be too easy.

Are there a ton? No. But are there really THAT many songs in the classical realm that aren't 4/4, 3/4, 6/8 either?
From what I've seen community college IT Tends to be pretty horrible. One of them out here had a server password of "password" and remoting on. Others tend to use a generic password on everything such as Mascot1 or gomascot1
IT Dunce A: Crap! Someone out there knows our password "gomascot1"!
IT Dunce B: No worries, I'll go ahead and change it to "gotigers1".
IT Dunce A: Phew!
Let's not forget that these games are pretty old, and a few of them have sequels out. That sweetens the deal for developers... maybe there are people that haven't tried LittleBigPlanet, but through this, will try it, like it, and buy LittleBigPlanet 2. Personally, I never thought Infamous looked interesting, but now that it's free, my interest is piqued to at least try it. And if I like it, well, the developers could end up scoring a sale of Infamous 2 that they wouldn't have gotten otherwise.

"Time Remaining" indicator is correct, true issue is users reading it wrong.

Maybe the FBI was attempting to investigate the mafia -- and must've gotten that mixed up with Mafia Wars?

For a minute there, I thought they were talking about Aaron Burr.

Wow, they compared a whole four languages: C++, Java, Go and Scala[...]
Yeah, can't believe they didn't include LOLCODE...
