My gut reaction (from somewhat of an outsider's perspective) is that focusing or even mentioning the off-TV gameplay could cannibalize into the 3DS sales since parents—who naturally aren't going to do the research—would assume that games for one system would overlap with the other. By keeping the feature hidden,…

Team Grace! She has Seattle iconography on her chalk board, I approve!

The funnier part is how desperate—and flawed—this letter is at making gaming anything more than gaming.

The Mario franchise needs its Christopher Nolan.

Your points on the film feeling emotionally bereft probably stem from the Cuarons' decision to have no stakes vested for Bullock's character. No child. No love interest.

@Fidgets: As I commented to Malonga, I'm not a lawyer and cannot tell you which defenses are allowed for different legal proceedings. My point was that the fervor I saw in the comments was aimed at the audacity of the convicted driver to claim the parents may have responsibility in the crime. If…

@riyadh: You stated:

@riyadh: I completely disagree with your argument. Victims are constantly questioned on what exactly they were doing when the incident occurs, the article even states that Weaving claims the child was going off of ramps into the middle of the street. Obviously, these claims would have to be substantiated but if…

Wow, I'm actually surprised with these comments, mainly because the recurring argument is that his legal rights should be devalued given the circumstances, as if decorum trumps the legal system. The fact of the matter is that the child, who was "declared brain dead," may have benefited from wearing a helmet. If it…
