This entire series is better than the nonsense (and prior canon-breaking stuff) Lucas can put in his CGI TCW series.

VGA is a total joke, and has been for quite some time. They didn't even have the best graphics games as contenders for the best graphics...and Unreal Engine 3 won. That's laughable. Crysis 2 and Battlefield 3 are undoubtedly among the best in graphics - neither were even part of the selection pool.

HOLY MOTHERFUCKING SHIT, I DO NOT BELIEVE THIS! Just last week I commented that I would like it to be a Generals sequel.

Is Gawker just bitter over their own site redesign and the negative reaction? Because Gawker deserves the negative reaction - I no longer visit this site at all - I only read the articles through RSS feeds now.

Oh, I agree. But my concern is for increased Chinese influence in the world, especially regionally. I favor U.S. hegemony, and China's increased military strength presents new complications for the American sphere of influence in that region (and in others).

This.

It's mostly assured that they did not shoot it down. The thing crashed. Quality engineering, huh?

Depends. If you favor U.S. interests, yes, because it makes conducting American foreign policy a bit harder. And it also might eventually lead to the U.S. itself being spied upon.

LOL, I just saw it as a brilliant comical caricature of different people. They made the Americans absurdly gung-ho, the GLA preposterously goofy, and the Chinese very...nuclear? Haha, I'm staunchy anti-racist, but I just saw this as good comical fun.

Agreed. Very few RTSes since have been even close to adequate, IMO. They've all been...O.K. But none of them have had the amazing base-building dynamics of Generals.

I never liked any C&C stuff aside from Generals. Seeing as how it had nothing to do with the franchise, and how much I freaking love it, I'm actually hoping this game, if it is a C&C game, also has nothing to do with the franchise, because then the chances are much higher that I'll like it.

He also was a Muslim-hating bigot, totally fell apart when asked about recent involvement in Libya, and thought we needed to stop China from getting nukes...which they already have.

Oh, O.K., thanks for the clarification.

O.K., thanks. I didn't rule out that they were wrong. Your last sentence seems a little assumptive and unnecessary.

Hmm, I was told that because of the sub-pixel situation (less sub-pixels per pixel), that the higher screen resolution of the Galaxy Nexus appears less sharp than that of the Galaxy S II. By several sources. It also doesn't help that the Nexus has a larger screen.

From what I understand, the Galaxy S II still has a better quality display because of a difference in the sub-pixel situation.

It should be noted that this is a Galaxy S II Skyrocket, not a regular S II. No idea if that makes a difference, but it is certainly a differentiating factor that could lead to different situations.

100% agreed. CoD is awful, and Rock, Paper, Shotgun hit the head on the nail in both articles.

You are being sarcastic, I trust? Hence the whole Applegate...
