I know what they tried to do. And I know that it would not lower prices because you have to have competition first for prices to be lowered (they aren't going to do it just to be nice) and what they were proposing to do actually removed competition.

Ah, it's honestly very typical MS. You have to remember they're biggest money maker and what has propped them up for most of their existance is Windows which has been a very dominant product in its marketplace. To the point that it is hard to use any other OS because there is not enough market for the other OS's for…

No, I'm pretty sure Sony wants to make a profit, I mean that's what they are here for. You missed my entire argument. Sony just can't afford to lose fans by pissing them off because right now they don't have the money to take a loss if they're wrong, therefore are motivated to try to do things we want and give us good…

Doesn't have a company that thinks it can put out BS and people will buy it? Yes, Sony has done that before but right now they can't afford that attitude and more importantly, they know they can't. MS though has always been arrogant and on top of that has the money they can afford to anger people in order to test…

Yes, they are almost the same. Sony's is probably slightly better.

You were the one saying there is a lot of truth in that image, and that is what that image is portraying (that females suddenly start liking games to get the attention and then want them changed for them).

>hockeyd13 Because I'm sure the same females turned around and started claiming to like videogames (and honestly, even if some did, they could geniunely have discovered what they were missing). It couldn't possibly be other females who liked videogames saying that last part (you know, cause all females are the same,…

Well, I don't have much useful to add except as an American it's comforting to know we're not the only one with our fair share of idiots ;). Unfortunately we're now known by our share of idiots it seems who have done a good job of making it look like they represent the rest of us.

Yeah he's better. And I'm not saying there aren't authors I like better than Martin, but I'm sorry, while Tolkien wrote the original story that most modern fantasy is based off of, he wasn't the best author out there. He was pretty over rated honestly (he wrote cardboard characters! I never could get into Lord of the…

Sumada (sorry, it apparently didn't decide to say who I replied to though I replied to your post):

Hear hear! Besides, I'm not always somewhere where having audio is appropriate (basically I can stealth read an article but I can't stealth listen to a video).

I liked them, they created a lot more tension (which is exactly why they did it that way. I saw some article where they said they tried other ways and it just didn't create the same kind of tension/fear as making it so that if the clickers grabbed you it was game over. And it really did make for a lot more tension…

Well, please don't go too hard on me if you find your experience varies as I find people have very different experiences with Skyrim (Though it seems a lot of the people who really hated it tried playing it when it first came out on the PS3, apparently they put out a patch that at least made it better. And i think the…

My own personal experience (and remember, I said it seems everyone's experience varies so I really can't say it will be for you) was that Skyrim ran decently (especially without DLC) until you really racked up the hours (I had 400 hours on that game but it was getting steadily more and more laggy towards the end, I…

I find that to be true in general of Bethesda games. They don't always run the same for everyone (like Skyrim, some people no issues, some people so bad it wasn't even playable. Same console). And yeah, I had the opposite of you, Vegas so far runs smoothly (well for Bethesda ;) ). It has bugs but more obnoxious than…

I've mostly finished Fallout 3 but it did tend to crash, especially when I bought the GOTY edition, then it became really horrid on how well it ran. It would crash constantly (sometimes 5 minutes from when I started) or run really really really slow or lag so long that I would give up and think it crashed (only reason…

I dunno, after a while getting caps is easy and you get more than you ever need so I could see a successful wonderer not really caring about leaving a bunch just to set a trap.

Yeah, some one's been playing pandemic a lot ;).

Maybe not fungus, but we do have diseases that affect how we act. Rabies virus for one ;). Just cause we are more complicated doesn't mean an organism can't figure out how to affect how we act. Rabies may not make us do anything specific like climb a tree and wait there (just makes mammals aggressive), but it still…

Good job, you're good at making assumptions! Good for you. Oh, and using ad hominom attacks too for that matter (but then that shows how little argument you had against what the person said that you had to attack the person instead).
