I'm surprised they haven't dismissed your comment. Give it time.

After thinking about it, I'd have to agree with that. The Gamepad's pretty great. I don't consider it 100% original but its something I'd like to see future consoles have.

The Wii-mote on the other hand, I really hated. Whoever thought it and the nunchuck was a good idea (aside from paying mandatory lip service to it…

I'm with everyone else in this thread, I would buy a WiiU just for that.

As long as the hypothetical CurrentGen Star Fox isn't a rail shooter anyway. There were reasons for doing it that way during the SNES and N64 eras (on most of the Star Fox 64 levels anyway, others were fairly open flightwise, like the mission…

Mind you this particular old friend in an inanimate object. Just to be clear, if your beloved friend is a human being or pet, it is not cool to take them apart piece-by-piece and frame them — even if they specify that in their will. If I can't be eaten by my family and friends when I die, they can't be made into a…

Now that's very true, Nintendo is indeed the last of the pure gaming companies manufacturing hardware, though if Sony doesn't get its house in order soon in regard to consumer electronics they may very well wind up being "Playstation Co. Ltd" and nothing else because the PS line is one of their dwindling number of…

I'd have to argue that one with you Andros, the WiiU has nothing quite as groundbreaking as being first console with online play as a core, built-in competency as well as the first console with high speed internet being a capability, though admittedly a rarely used one.

Which is not to say the WiiU is a bad console,…

I believe it was. I got it post-patch and I've never had an issue with the framerate dropping even when all hell was breaking loose.

I'm still pissed at Sony for closing Psygnosis, or whatever they were calling themselves. One thing I do notice is that the vehicle colors are very very close to Wipeout's and hopefully that means the handling, speed and acceleration characteristics are roughly the same as Wipeout's. Basically, as long as my machine…

My guess is that it has to do with FEMA's Region VI center being located in Denton. Its like a miniature Mount Weather Special Facility, as most of the Regional centers are, like the one in Denver. Region VI put out a big press release about it on its 50th anniversary and its available here.

But It is purely a guess…

And do you know why their last name's Denton? Ive got my own theory, but I've never heard anyone from the creative side of the game confirm it and its one that people who don't either live in Dallas or know much about the physical infrastructure behind the Emergency Management field probably don't but since Ion Storm…

Interestingly, for the original Deus Ex there was also a woman character designed at one point who never made it in the final game:

Maybe if it wasn't the only fighting game since Eternal Champions to control like you're underwater, it might be better received among the Fighting Game community. At least thats the gripe I hear out of people that I can personally relate to.

Its been a long time, I turn 30 in two months, but I used to school people…

Enlargement? Hmm, sounds like a ban is in order.

Knowing Nintendo, you'll be able to say something like "I'll give it my best shot!"


And if you say it 20 times during a week, its a ban.

I dunno if it counts because of the ending with what I'm assuming is an FTL-esq ship as well as ESP being a really big part of the story. Still a good book for one of the Scribner's Juveniles though (although Between Planets is my favorite of that era), especially since the Time Dilation was done pretty well.

At those recommended specs, I don't really see how you couldn't be ready unless you don't play many PC games.

That's still a huge amount of HD space though.

The Japanese postmen got tired of the drop bears killing staff, they're straight up refusing entry now.

Corsair is also a name for Pirate. Pirates are associated with crossed swords because of Calico Jack's jolly roger flag which is a skull above crossed curved swords on a back background.

Y'know that's really strange, I see a gigantic loophole that you could lead an Aircraft carrier through but its fucked up enough that it sounds about right.

That's a pretty major loophole though because if a Reservist decides she doesn't like only getting paid 400 bucks or so a month or he doesn't like his TPU because…

I love it when Publishers fuck up pre-order bonuses.

For instance, I bought Star Trek Online when it was a subscription game. I believe I got it from Gamestop. In the end, I got not only the Gamestop pre-order bonus, but the Wal-Mart and Amazon.com bonus items as well. I didn't preorder the game. I still got the…
