He said "owners can also show their enthusiasm for the female form with a handful"

@Jimmy_Jazz: I see what you did there.

@Gex: If the consumer has hundreds and hundreds of dollars tied up in game disks, DLC, and downloaded games, the consumer doesn't have much of a choice. You either replace the console or abandon your investment. I have a PS3 too and I like it fine. I don't blame people who buy a replacement console after they got…

I had two RRoDs. You know I always thought that was bullshit. Microsoft claimed to be doing the "Right Thing" by its customers by extending the warranty. They were just giving you a refurb replacement unit with the exact same design flaw. It just delays the RRoD until the refurb is out of warranty. $400 down the…

@Baboonski: I think Steam is perfectly acceptable. I have played games offline with Steam many times. The only time I was a sad panda about steam was when I wanted to use a custom user patch for a game to make it support my laptop's 1080p screen. I read that I cannot apply the patch to the steam exe version…

@54r93: I recently finished FF 1. I tried FF 2 and didn't like it for a reason that escapes me. I moved on to FF III for the DS which is great. Next on the list is FF IV on the DS. I played about 40 hours of Dragon Quest IX but it turned into a slog so I've put it down for the moment.

@Relysis: You, my friend, are not alone. I have quite a backlog of things I haven't played at all or never finished. I have so many that I wind up not playing at all. Sometimes I'll start a game, get halfway through it, and then open another game I bought months ago. Then I come back and want to finish the first…

I agree with a lot of my fellow gamers here. Requiring an internet connection when I boot the game is still completely unacceptable. What happens if I'm riding in the car on a four hour trip and my son want's to play AC2 on Dad's smoking fast laptop? Too bad for us lowly customers, huh? How about you keep your…

@Vash_627: I'm playing FF XIII over my vacation. I really like it. There may be something wrong with me.

@DarthSaigon: I'm pretty sure it's stealing from middle class programmers/game designers/sound engineers/animators/publicists/cubicle warriors.

@Jandau: I buy these for my son for birthdays and Christmas. He loves them. It's not about the walkthroughs. The game art spread out over the book is a lot of fun to browse through.

GoDaddy.com has gotten a copy of the compromised list. They are disabling any email addresses that are part of a domain they host. They are making phone calls to the domain account holder. I already changed the password for the email address that got published to the internet. Now I have to change it again which…

Since my teenage son is a WoW player, I'm ordering him a Leroy Jenkins t-shirt. I would like to get him a Kevin Butler t-shirt too but I didn't find any funny/cool ones.

I had the exact same version of the same books! I read those over and over. I studied them while making my own dungeons on graph paper. Do you remember making out your own character sheets because the kits only came with a few and they were expensive? How about saving up your allowance to buy a really cool set of…

@leeloo: The random characters are a DES5 hash of your password, I believe. DES is pretty dated encryption. It is easy to decrypt with downloaded tools. I honestly don't know if anyone will go to the trouble. They (the wonderfrul people who posted our info to the internet) decrypted the ones that would "pop" in a…

@cityslicker: It has our usernames, passwords, and email addresses. If you use any combination of the three on other sites, you should go change it now. I'm in the process of doing that now. I am so disappointed.

@ngamesnick: Left a link for you in a private message. I just looked and I do not see ngamesnick in there. However, whatever email address you use and the original login name you used IS probably in there. I would imagine some jerk will write some scripts that parses the text file and attempts to log into various…

@Shami 'Wowie' Sansi: Last one I built from the ground up cost me about $1400. I built it exactly one year ago. Radeon 5870, i7, 8GB RAM, 650 Watt PS, etc.

@ngamesnick: Did you download the torrent? I did. All of our logins, passwords, and email addresses have been decrypted and posted in a text file. I cannot fathom how many people will be buying things they didn't intend to in the next few weeks. I think the dollars will be staggering.

@ihearthawthats: I just downloaded the torrent to see if any of my personal information was in there. It is. It looks like all our logins and passwords are in there in plain clear text. Gawker gave away all of our personal information. Now I am checking every website I use to see if I am using that data to log in.
