The powers that you say are reserved for the states stopped being reserved for the states when they crossed state lines. If a company is from, say, Colorado and only does business in Colorado, then I would be inclined to agree with you. That's why states have their own departments of health, agriculture, etc.

"The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;"

You'd be surprised that how untrue that is. Programming knowledge doesn't mean HCI knowledge. I've had to fix many a CS major's PC issues.

I'm pretty sure he was just quoting the Office Space line and already knew what it meant.

Launch trailers, especially Bioware ones, generally don't have any gameplay. Just take a look at SWTOR's or ME2's.

So you're saying that a dog sitting in the driver seat of a car while its owner is shopping (which I just saw yesterday btw) is driving said car?

Headline is part of the article, so fail reply is fail. Last I knew you can't drive a car that's not moving with the engine switched off.

The first tweet after the race started came at 9:58PM, which was well after all of the cars were parked and the engines turned off.

Eh, let him complain all he wants. He's probably just an angry, bitter man who's been beat up too many times in his childhood.

The way I see it, $10 DLC subsidizes the base cost of games, allowing it to stay at $59.99. Publishers have to make their profit somewhere.

And the day that people stop buying DLC is the day that the base price of a game gets jacked up again.

That's not their problem. Blame the government for not having better lawyers.

I got this. See IEEE 1541-2002 regarding conventions:

I'll respectfully disagree with you. Defense lawyers, and I would argue especially the ones like this law firm, are critical to our legal system. No matter what a suspect allegedly did and no matter how they run their mouth, a lawyer needs to work on the presumption that his clients are innocent and defend them to…

Actually, it is. Since the end of the 90s, the correct way to refer to a terabyte is 10^12 bytes. 2^40 bytes is called a tebibyte.

Simple. I'd rather people buy their DLC than have the base price of the game get jacked up. Game prices have stayed at $59.99 since 2006. You tell me how that's sustainable and I'll throw you an imaginary cookie.

L4D was announced almost a year and a half before Valve bought them out.

To me, it all boils down to "I want to watch x, play y, or listen to z without paying for any of it."

Amen. PR should either become a state or declare its independence.

@The Squalor and the Fury: Neither. More Jennifer Morrison (in brunette form).
