@thirdeye09: NPD compiles the NA numbers and is a marketing research firm. Enterbrain tabulates the JP numbers and is a publishing house (Famitsu). Basically the JP numbers are released weekly and the NPD's are done monthly. I'm foggy on who does the Euro sales tracking, but I'm pretty sure they make you pay for…

@battra92: That's not even the worst one. [www.ubergizmo.com] It has all of the unattractiveness of the dragon, but with 800% more jagged edges. I suppose it does have the advantage over the dragon one of not violating your belly button with its tail while playing.

@eeranyA39: Seconded. Gormeh Sabzi is top notch. [www.amazon.com] That cook book should be required reading.

@PunkyChipsAhoy: Yea, having snakes inside of you is generally a bad thing.

@d_r_e: I'd love to see some Bloodthirsty Butchers. For general reference, handguns are illegal in Japan.

It's because I don't feel comfortable giving my CC out to people who will invite me to a level 10 prestige lobby, duh.

@tetracycloide: Seriously, if it's the summer and I don't have company, I'm doing everything in my underwear. Likewise if I were at the beach if you sub in swimsuit for undergarments. If this were E3 or PAX I would be disturbed, and there is no fat joke intended (Ok, there sorta was.)

@Nawara_Ven: [z.about.com] So true.

@mrantimatter: That's because SE didn't pay for the advertising in majority, MS did. If you see a multi-plat that's heavily marketed toward one console, there were concessions made by the company whose name pops up at the end.

I don't think I'm really interested in paying for PSN. I don't buy any games for my 360 unless they're exclusive at this point because I don't want to pay to play online. Cross game voice chat would be nice, but that's the only thing that would interest me and at $70 a year I'm even less interested. If you can…

@falcon522: Ouch, well said. +1

@No I wouldn't like tea and crumpets: I'd much rather buy the songs that I like as opposed to having excess songs forced on me. I'm happy paying more per song than I would for a collection if I can pick and chose.

Good god. Just give me fucking DLC of the songs. I don't care if some cartoon is singing "No Quarter." If you want me to buy your music in Rockband, let me play the songs in the most convenient manner. Where as there are songs that almost anyone can like in RB2... Not everyone wants to play an entire setlist of a…

@interkin3tic: I like to paint a picture with my words... sometimes it's a Pollock.

@interkin3tic: Preventing the trucker population from going out of control and leading to mass starvation. Population control is important because they'll screw like rabbits and leave their progeny all over the states resulting in petrol shortages and lack of freight to support them all...

@interkin3tic: In other news, truckers may not reproduce asexually? : P

@VincentGrey: o.O Along with the Cowon S9, Sony's X1000 series of walkmans are considered the best portable media players on the market. They both pretty much so trump the competition in all audio/video/build quality related areas in the touch-screen media player market.

@Anemone: I suppose I should be serious. I think that this sort of game already exists in a way. I've never seen the movie, but from what I've gathered out of the article the experience would be similar to one of those "escape from the room" type games that you can find several good examples of including Viridian…

@Anemone: Here is the Rad trailer... just for good measure.

I'd rather see a Gleaming the Cube game. Rodney Mullen wasn't in any Sci-fi movies so the entire genre is pointless and undeserving of any games.
