I won't be surprised if Nintendo announce the Wii's successor at E3, but I won't be shocked if they don't, either. Certainly the Wii has peaked both in terms of sales rate and mindshare, but there's no reason to suppose the system won't continue to be profitable for at least a couple more years. As others have…

An extraordinarily erudite play, my friend. Very finely done indeed.

That only served to reinforce my belief that Crysis 2 is unnaturally pretty.

Seriously. That shirt was fucking aces. Good old Fletcher.

As a general rule, I don't look a gift horse in the mouth when the gift horse has been enjoying a steady diet of crap sandwiches.

It looks ridiculous. Good ridiculous, not the bad kind... but still. Completely and absolutely bollocks.

Sorry, but you missed Omikron. It was released for the Dreamcast, and for Windows. Whatever you looked up was providing erroneous information, friend.

I think you're pretty much obligated to rock three monitors, nothing under 23"... although I'd go 24", myself. I can't remember if you went NVIDIA or AMD (ahem, ATI) for your GPU solution, but if you went ATI then I have to say Eyefinity works so well. You can never have too much desktop real estate, particularly if…

I was totally with you up until the making eye contact part. Everyone knows avoiding eye contact is way more awesome.

I'll agree with the others saying each participant should be provided one swap and/or rank switch... I think it would definitely help people to avoid drastically altering the list when they don't mean to.

I see you've obviously confused J Allard with N'Gai. Everyone knows Allard was the one in Battlefield Earth.

Just the living room, anymore... at least for consoles (360/PS3). My gaming PC is in the bedroom, but that's just because I keep the cats from coming in, they've got the run of the rest of the place. Don't like cat hair on the PC. The older-generation consoles are all boxed up in the closet.

Are you unfamiliar with Quantic Dream's other titles? They spent years on other titles, developing and refining the techniques they perfected in Heavy Rain... and those earlier works are good. Just look at Fahrenheit (Indigo Prophecy in the US). That game was one of the real gems of the last generation. You seem to…

I cared about achievements in the beginning (November 2005) but I think the bloom was off the rose by early 2007. I'm just under 30,000 (I think) and if I make it to 40,000 by the end of this generation I'll be surprised. They're novel, but once people started taking them really seriously the fun died off for me.

I'm playing a bunch of crap this weekend: Dante's Inferno, Dragon Age 2, Fable 3, and maybe replaying Heavy Rain. Have to balance out the fatassyness of it all with some exercise, though. Can't do to get all heavy.

T-Mobile does permit users to select a data-only plan, though. Which works beautifully with Google Voice, as that renders the voice portion superfluous. And they're the only ones that still do, to the best of my knowledge. But perhaps they won't let her drop the voice portion of her plan until she's off-contract (this…

I'm game. The first one was solid enough, and the second had a lot of good ideas and a quality story (though I found the execution lacking in many regards, particularly the controls). Heading to the present and making it about antiheroes sounds pretty interesting... and since I actually didn't despise Army of Two OR…

I find that as I get older, and games are easier to come by, that it's hardly an issue if I don't finish things. CAG doesn't help, either... the chase of a great deal is almost as much fun as actually playing the titles I find. And it's always nice, to dig through a huge backlog for just the right thing to play on…

Don't feel bad. Eclair was the same way— 2.0 and 2.1, both. And there were plenty of upgrades in that thing.

No, this isn't an LTE device. You're pretty much looking at the Thunderbolt and the couple of Samsung/LG devices Verizon's got pegged for late spring, at the moment.
