@Rampage: Especially since it's been readily and willingly available for $5

@jerkbot: or use it sometime when you actually have backup. Also, when you're almost dead anyway it's worth it as a hail-mary in case they stand around waiting long enough for someone else to take them out and save you. In the multiplayer beta I did that once, and while no one else showed up, I got extra lucky with a…

What we americans now know as mayo (more heavily cheap oil based) and what is common elsewhere in the world (oil, vinegar, raw yolk/egg) is different. Real mayo has a much shorter shelf life.... but also tastes a lot better and probably won't sit around as long as a result :)

@Hello Mister Walrus: Last time I was in SF the BART barely had half capacity passengers even when I was coming from the airport near rush hour. I don't live there so I don't know if it's typical, but on the light rail in portland the trains get packed to sardine capacity, and people yelling at family members on…

@phatdog44: I started playing it last weekend, and it's seriously creepy. Don't play in the evening :)

@TheMightyEthan: They added water when the Pirates levels came out.

@gamebrain89: They didn't move that much. I get the hyperbole, but it kinda ruined the skit for me. A little more acting and a little less flopping would give it more style.

I would like to know if this is going to lead to a version for the ipad/ipod/iphone that has significantly better AI, controls, physics... something actually worth playing.

@Kevin Harris: Halo 3 was "Finish the fight".

@bjaxon: medical staff. private pager networks are much more reliable for prompt delivery, and have better coverage than cell signals in buildings. They're getting replaced, but they aren't quite dead yet.

"...might extend the life of your computer's own cooling fans, which isn't all that expensive a replacement."

This might just explain why apple still doesn't understand how to make or support truly enterprise scalable solutions.

In my experience with digital overexposure is the worst thing you can do unless you want it... there is usually more data in the shadows than in the highlights (especially with this latest generation of sensors), so no matter how much you tweak, certain areas of the image will be flat, bright, and ugly if they were…

The points card deals are duplicates (both are the same amazon sale), and it's also dead already. :(

shenanigans!

The RSS title for this article is classic:

@jonesey666: Sorry to rub you the wrong way man, I was just commenting on the design, not trying to pick a fight. I thought your first comment was fine actually, I just don't think that's as convenient. I never asked a question, I was talking about the original post, that charging can be annoying depending on your…

@jonesey666: I have a second dual shock, but I don't leave it out all the time. And if one goes dead when I do have a friend over, I'm still SOL. I prefer the xbox solution of having a spare $10 battery (or two) over a $50 controller... especially in another year and a half when the batteries start to die. :)

@dirtyasianslut: They can, but that's not the point. In many games with rumble the battery life is cut by a third or more, and that means spending a lot more time tethered to something, probably the console itself. Depending on your living room this can be really frustrating.

For network latency that is fairly typical, but that isn't typical for control-to-display delays. Network games still show your own character's actions immediately, and the host code works out the who-did-what-first stuff. The important part is that to your eye, when you say move, you move. If the delay is over around…
