Here's the deal: Microsoft put a lot of ads in the old interface. However, they positioned the main things you wanted to access within easiest reach. This time around, despite adding apps like YouTube, you can't put them on your dash. Instead, adverts bigger than the actual useful buttons invade the screen. Microsoft

Colour me surprised. I didn't realise everyone loved DX:HR so much. I pre-ordered it at nearly full RRP (not something I do very often), and played it for...12 hours. While the speech challenges in the game are fantastic, and so are the hacking minigames, the world felt totally lifeless and I found the combat terribly

Aye, I was targeting Nick there, I agree with you. Totally a shotgun approach. And not even a good shotgun, it's not hitting that many people XP.

I am totally confused as to how it is popular with adult males. I just watched about 3 minutes of an episode, and it seems just like a children's show still, just sort of more updated.

True, but booted it up today and the remastered music really adds to it!

I'm really puzzled as well. These just aren't big titles. And you forget Nintendo reveals stuff at the last minute now, it's possible we don't have a clue if something huge is coming next year.

Also, metaphor:

It's very different. The communication between individual people, and the communication between a company and a huge swath of people over the internet is clearly very different. There was no direct message asking for people to buy the game, or action would be taken. Some may say that was implicit in pirating in the

To be fair, this is a rather complicated matter. The biggest thing that scares me is that anyone of any age can do this, and since this basically never happens, people think it's fine. So you'll have 13-year-olds happily doing this, and may receive these letters having not understood the consequences in the first

Aye, as long as I have spare thinking time I feel like I have to go through every single circumstance. I also realised it's painful on my partner, who isn't like that at all. Well, she dithers a bit, but she doesn't think all the time like me. So yeah, I'd say the same as you, some advice would be brilliant.

Yep, I'm a 'maximizer' and I wish I wasn't. Decisions are terribly difficult for me. That said, I am occasionally happy with decisions, and it's intensely satisfying when I am.

See, I loved Memento. But I watched Shutter Island recently and I thought it had similar themes, but in ways was more entertaining. Perhaps I should watch Memento again to remind me of it again ;).

Still sore from the fact I sent the site in as a suggestion like a year ago, and only now are Kotaku going on about it :P.

You have a star goddamnit, explain yourself rather than chanting at me :P.

I think people keep forgetting to distinguish between blatant generalisation and actual finger-pointing. This is clearly an off-hand generalisation, that is proven for the most part, to be true. A statistically low amount of adult women would play (or as such, even have heard of) an RPG/Fantasy compared to younger

I'm glad you called me out on that. Yes, you're right, it is possible. I think I meant to say it was incredibly difficult, which is more what I meant. Don't forget different races will be subtly biologically different as well, although that won't have a huge bearing in what you're saying. Here's the thing though; some

I'm sort of with you there yes. It's interesting, it really is, but where's the audience? We'll never be able to stop people from being idiots (even ourselves!), and the people who are stupid enough to spout that kind of rubbish in the first place, are too ignorant to read articles akin to this. That said, THIS

I've done a HELL of a lot of thinking on gender equality recently. My conclusion is this: we're nearly as gender equal as we're ever going to be. While you can change laws, you cannot change the psychology underpinning society. Society so far has been predominantly shaped by men, and so women are going to be at a

Never really looked at Rdio before, is it available in the UK? Pretty damned happy with Spotify atm, especially the support for third-party apps on iOS and the new apps on the desktop version.
