It would also be nice if they were able to secure some rights to Aussie Rules Football. (Fox Soccer Plus currently shows some games if I remember correctly.)

You definitely need a Mac (or at least a virtual machine running the Mac OS) in order to develop for iOS, which I think is insanely stupid. Oh well though, and good luck learning to program! After you get familiar with scripting, I would also advise to take a look at Javascript/AJAX and HTML5 stuff just like skycat…

I'm in the same boat as you, so don't feel too bad. I'm starting to think about just developing a game with just stick figures and blocks, and then have someone else do the artwork after that's done.

That remark doesn't point to him working for EA though, if he did... he (probably) wouldn't have mentioned trying to figure out how to get there.

True story, I'm friends with a clerk at one of my local stores, we joke around how I try and find those cheap bad games to buy up.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I've announced this to all of my friends already haha.

Yes! Keep those FFXI tracks coming!

I can understand that you wouldn't want to "spoil" anything with the Sylvari, and I'm the same way. Even with these other beta events, I've only played maybe an hour or two. Since I just wanted to get a feel for the different races and how their story lines started. I have no interest in rushing to level 20 in a…

Finally! I've been waiting to try out the Sylvari this entire time, as that's the race I'll probably be playing as when the game comes out. Been kind of pissed they weren't in the other betas yet, but now we're good.

Things actually started to work for me late last night, and are working now too. So I guess they did bring out the DLC, just didn't want to work right away.

Same here, tried looking in the e-shop too... couldn't find it there.

Yep, and they brought out Sengoku Basara 3 in the States too (under Sengoku Basara: Samurai Heroes).

So Apple had to pay to have the name of a device that looks like it was copied off their iMac design... that kind of makes me sad.

I like that too. I also like Kotaku Raw, but that could be taken horribly out-of-context.

I like Rough Draft, but what about Editing Room or something similar in that regard?

Yea, I've thought about that too. Having a master forum would almost seem a little overwhelming after awhile, and having generic or day specific questions such as "what are you playing today?" or "what's your favorite game?" would get confusing for people late to the discussion. Should a new person reply in that…

What the courts just upheld today is the law that most (not all...) Americans will be forced to buy health insurance, or have to pay a fine. So he'll end up using that ruling as a case to allow his law to not be struck down. (or something like that...)

When I get home from work, I'm going to be buying all the new pyro stuff (and the balloonicorn) and enjoy the crap out of it.

Yea he might swing from thin air every now and then, but I did think it was cool how they actually made it so there had to be a building at your height or taller close to you in order for you to start swinging. I also like how he free-falls.

Congrats on the successful show.
