Also how he contradicts himself, in this thread he says that he doesn't have a dualshock anymore when not more than a week ago he made a comment about how the PS3 firmware update almost killed his 60GB PS3. So unless he happened to sell his PS3 in the course of the last week (which I'm sure he'll suddenly claim he has…

Oh don't I know it. It bugs me that he pretends to be objective while harbouring a clear bias.

I'm going to voice one thing that's always bothered me about Gawker, and that's that there's no separation between editors and moderators. There's too great a temptation to moderate based on the fact that someone is disagreeing with your article, rather than whether they deserve to be banned or not. Granted it's not…

Wow, what a convenient revelation. Christ, you're the worst kind of armchair expert. Next you'll be telling me that you're a lawyer too.

No, it's a science you think you're educated in because you've had some casual conversations with people who are educated in a related (but entirely different) field. That does not constitute an education.

That's just bad writing though, it's no the fault of the character. When you have to take away or otherwise modify a superheros superpowers just to challenge him though? That's a problem with the character design. Good Superman stories generally aren't about playing to the characters strengths, they're about covering…

They can if it's public domain, which I'm pretty sure the official map is.

I'm guessing an ND artist just mistook it for the official one. I don't buy Booths argument that they'd have to licence the official map. I respect that he just wants his due for his work but his reaction was incredibly over the top.

A science you are not an expert in.

Ignore him, one day he's an expert in game design, another he's an expert in anatomy. He always seems to be an expert in the field he needs to prove his point.

I just don't get what your point is here. Losing in board games is just more fun? That competitiveness in video games makes it boring if you lose? I love board games but this argument just doesn't work for me. It's not something that's defined by the medium, but by the games themselves. There are video games where…

Being a hyper competent combatant isn't the entire problem though. You're right that plenty of games and stories have powerful protagonists who win against increasingly insurmountable odds and innumerable enemies. It's the fact that he's indestructible, which takes away any challenge or tension. Fighting a horde of…

The examples you presented still present problems though, with his ridiculous speed what's to stop him from simply solving both problems? I mean delivering medicine? While sources vary on how fast Supes actually is the general consensus is "pretty fucking fast", I'm pretty sure he can still stop Lex and deliver the…

I'm not talking just about console wars though, I'm talking on a much broader scale. And I'm not comparing them to the Japanese either (which at any rate is more due to xenophobia than nationalism), nationalism isn't a contest.

That's a bit of an over-exaggeration. The US is a large market, but it's still part of a larger global market. And this is precisely what I mean, Americans nearly always overestimate their importance on a global scale. And with Japan it's generally more xenophobia than it is nationalism.

And as Satan is like the serpent, twisting and slippery so are his agents on this earth. So are you. You would twist scripture and faith in God to mislead and deceive, but God sees plainly. As may any mortal man who looks upon the lies of Satan with God in his heart. You answer not the question put forth to you false…

And that is what you believe, and if you confess that I believe you. However neither your belief nor your confession of the resurrection mean that you understand or believe in his teachings. It is one thing to believe in Gods existence, yet another to serve him. Your confession is no more than misdirection sinner,…

That's largely because destroying things is fun, and it's totally in character for the Hulk to go on a rampage. For goody two shoes Superman? It's not. Secondly in terms of durability and power they're definitely in the same league. But the Hulk has limitations, and the problem with Superman is he doesn't have those…

It's hard to make a good Superman game because Supes is a terrible superhero. There's a reason he's often referred to as a god, he essentially is. The only reason why he has to have a ridiculous token weakness is because otherwise there's precious little other ways to challenge him. Stories thrive on tension, tension…

Doesn't matter, they're still American companies. Besides Microsoft is primarily a software/ enterprise services company. Not hardware. So yeah, most of what they sell does not come out of China.
