Your screenshot says the 3DS is shipped and sold by Amazon.com. So they apparently are selling the hardware.

How many of those that voted in the survey have played any Final Fantasy game prior to X?

If not directly then there are always system emulators (DosBox etc).

This was done in Sim Isle: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SimIsle:_Missions_in_the_Rainforest

SimEarth: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SimEarth

I got to play it for a few hours on release night and had a good time with it. I've enjoyed Sim City since the original and have to say this one feels spot on. It is possible to play it on your own (albeit still online). I think that anyone who liked the earlier iterations will like this one as well ... once they can…

Here's to hoping they get BASEketball.

Negative much?

The only way to enforce this would be to remove a woman's eggs at birth and only allow them to fertilize them once the test is passed.

A ban on parents, obviously. Parents have kids that grow up to become killers. So if we get rid of parents we won't have these kids growing up to be be killers anymore.

I believe that the original pieces were chosen because they were objects that reflected the current state of the nation and/or world and would resonate with players. The new tokens, I don't know how they were picked.

Problem with that is that most people's internet upstream speed isn't good enough for streaming high resolution, high fidelity video and audio, meaning that you'd be playing a slide show of your game.

A nice option, but this actually messes with some games (ex. Star Trek Online), locking the brightness, thus negating any benefits of the application.

There does seem to be some irrational expectation that a paid subs has to be in the range or $15/mo. Although if I recall correctly FFXI was only $10.99 (for one character), but it has been years since I played that.

Where do you even find pay phones these days?

Maybe see if there is an Amazon Locker in your area: http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html?ie=UTF8&docId=1000841451

Most likely they're going to use some form of duplication and just generate a massive amount of individual citizens doing every type of interaction and then just pass a copy of the necessary amount to each player, rather than each player having their own set of Sims.

Except for the "93%" that like it.

Excellent choices for all time favorites.

Rage much?
