You're discounting the fact that this is NOT the first time this has occurred. The same thing was done for the Nexus One.

No, they were not. At all. Other articles have detailed the breakdown of the jury. The jurors ranged in age from twentysomething to sixtysomething and not all of them were even college graduates. They were average people. John is just full of crap, or he's joking.

That's not bad looking, but I'm a bigger fan of the wood. Definitely more involved, and reasonably doable as a DIY. The Tek kit is neat and well-designed, but the clear plexiglass looks like any number of cheap N64 case mods.

If I'm understanding this correctly, this site wants to monetize the habits of exhibitionists— in this case, those who want to have others see them engaging in sex— but they want to monetize it while taking half off the top, and making the exhibitionism semi-private? That seems like a peculiar business plan, but maybe…

+1. Thank you so much for that.

It's a bold maneuver, to be sure— but I'm really curious how they intend to pull it off. Without any actual technical know-how at all, does GameStop intend to just buy a company that could come up with these competitive strategies for the changing market?

Eww! Are you using an Xperia Play? That sucks, dude... Sony makes achingly pretty phones sometimes, but between the horrendously complicated skinning they do and the laughably awful updates they provide (see: X10. You could see other stuff, too, but seriously: X10, just X10, only the sad, sad X10) I wouldn't touch a…

You can make what are after-the-fact-obviously-dumb decisions— in this case, choosing a phone with an expectation of reasonable OEM support through the phone's lifespan— without actually being a dumb person. I didn't mean to insult anybody but the manufacturers leaving skinned phones high and dry. Sorry for the…

You're correct in saying that it's not automatically dumb to buy a non-Nexus Android device. If you are someone who's much concerned with being updated in a timely manner? Yes, you'd be dumb if you bought a non-Nexus device. But— as you pointed out— if you wanted a great camera, all-metal construction, Gorilla Glass,…

Thank you! That is much better.

By your definition, and admittedly it's just quibbling, Eclair (2.1), Froyo (2.2), and Gingerbread (2.3) were all just service packs. Of Donut. Respectfully, I disagree. 4.1.1 is certainly an incremental upgrade to 4.1.0 (same way 2.3.7 was to the mainline 2.3.6), but the named releases are named releases for a reason.

I'm not calling something that is nine months old, "old" in a disparaging way. I am calling a software iteration (ICS) that has already been replaced by another, newer version (Jellybean) "not new." The same way I'd argue that calling Windows Vista "the new Windows OS" after the release of 7 (and now 8, I guess) would…

I get that it's only now gaining traction among the "why am I dumb and bought a non-Nexus device" crowd, but it's an extraordinary stretch to call the not-even-current, nine month old Ice Cream Sandwich the new Android OS. Just because your phone manufacturer is made of tards does not make your shiny old toy and less…

I agree, it's a peculiar choice for the squids to have made. That seems like the greater of two evils, where the other evil is anything else they could possibly have done.

Agreed. While using the WiiU touchpad as a primary display is pretty neat (I wouldn't mind being able to play full console games in the other room sometimes, or in bed) most of these uses seem pretty counterintuitive. I'm holding out on the WiiU until I see a reasonable number of titles using the controller in a way…

The question marks on the Tablet/PC apps doesn't make sense... I thought they confirmed that the non-X86 processors would only run Metro apps?

To be fair, he said best-selling of all time. Not necessarily best-selling of this, or any other specific console generation.

It's entirely possible... but if there's suddenly another, additional $1.3 million dollars involved in porting it to the Wii U, I can't imagine publishers won't try to make that money back somewhere.

Sure, you've every right to your own prediction... but your prediction is based on irrational deductions, selective memory, and flat-out misreporting. So that prediction, the one you're totally entitled to, comes off as comedy. Sorry, guy.

Except that the Vita is priced extremely competitively given the hardware... Sony is selling the hardware at a loss, and the 3DS itself launched at the same price the Vita did, just months earlier, and with considerably inferior hardware. Your selective memory is betraying you, my friend. The Vita launched at the same…
