Let me know when actual slave men who have been raped by dickwolves suffered from the comic, and there might be something to talk about.

I dont know about Google Books, but EZPdf will do it no problem as long as the book has been OCR scanned for text recognition.

Very good points concerning the hardware, but I think it's probably not as hard as one thinks in the long run. A bigger issue might have been the fact that the PS2 was still selling, and finally making profit (as opposed to when it first came out and the money they made was supposedly only from games). Is it a…

Or... rather than repurchasing every single game, or having an older (soon to be breaking) system set up, they could just give us BC. But then people wouldn't pay twice for the same game, which would probably need to be purchased again for the next system, to infinity. How many digital purchases on the PS3 will…

Geez. I'm speechless. The touchy whiny culture of the American internet is offended by an anime from another culture with a less touchy sense of humor. Better castigate the anime-makers for their work.

I like Sony more than the others (always have, due to the PS1 and PS2 controller) but still want a simple thing: backwards compatibility. "Get in tune" with what many (yes, I know SOME of you don't care, so move on please) have wanted reinstated for years now. When my original PS3 died, I had to settle for a shitty…

My only complaint concerning the change from DS2 to DS3 was the change of the L2/R2 buttons to triggers. The previous style was fine and useful for all types of games. I have to use an old PS2 controller to play fighting games and others that require quick and repetitive input. Triggers are very limited and do not…

He has considered it...and rejected it. Just like Tomb Raider has never had a "Larry Croft" as a playable characcter, some stories cannot be told from a neutral-gender perspective. And as he said: if you don't like his choice, don't buy it. Not everybody is a sellout, thank God for that. Oh, I hope my use of "God" in…

Long term vision can be fun! I purchased two games the other day.... on disc. I actually went to gamestop to buy them, and they were used. The surprising feature was that if I did not like the games, within 7 days I could return them for a full refund. This is a very welcome development, because there have been many…

I fail to see why people should not discuss specs, even if Microsoft says we shouldnt. They say a lot of things. There ARE some people who do understand specs, and components do make a difference. Just remember how the PS2s specs made trouble for developers. I guess we should not have discussed that - not even the…

Exactly. People want this. Others don't. They don't have to buy it. Oh no! A video game peripheral without a stupid plastic tip! If this is such an issue, start making the guns IN the games look like they were made by Fisher Price. The hypocrisy is amazing.

Pussygalore, that would have been the best answer to give, indeed! But also the worst one for her chances at winning heh heh. I like to imagine that whoever posed the question was really out to get her, and the whole time she was standing there she was thinking "Oh come on! Really? ..... Say something deep that won't…

In a pageant glorified for upholding traditional views of women, what could she possibly say? Any reply decrying the situation would also decry the pageant and would seem just a weeee bit ironic. Bad answer, but I can only imagine what was going through her head - knowing that male judges were listening.

I agree. First thing I noticed. All those ambiguous promises to appease people? They will probably fall under that provisio - like when the newer PS3s removed BC, etc.

Yes, needs Classical - not pop.

That is good to hear... It is a good sign of a writer's skill when he can make a character's thoughts more compelling than a sword to the gut!

That definitely piques my interest a bit more. Would you say that it is effective, or that its self-consciousness takes away from it?

Ah, that suspension of belief gets messed with. I try not to think about it when I'm watching something, but there were a couple of years in which I could not watch movies because I was too aware of the fact that they were actors. I have to just go with it now. A similar feeling is when I watch a classical musician…

Only by us ignorant tv only people. Oops! Don't kill me, please.....

Thanks! Do the books have a similar internal dialogue around the speech, similar to Dune? I'm curious. :) That would be a good reason for reading them some day.
