It is a party game, but the way it works is that everyone there is taking a shot a minute separately. So everyone there ends up drinking 7-8 beers.

There is, and it's mention in the reply above this one. It's the EOS Movies DSLR conceot that they announced at that film even a few months ago. I bet that one will have it, and be for the people who want to primarily shoot video and maybe take a few pictures.

I think the main reason it's a one game playoff is so that that World Series doesn't get pushed even further towards November. I'd be fine with cutting 10-12 games off the season and making it a best of 3, though.

In a nice, perfect world, that's what would happen. In the world we live in, it's not. The truth of the matter is that just like with many tangible goods, when it comes to streaming rights, companies will buy more so that they can pay less per show. For example, FX might offer the streaming rights to "It's Always…

If the character is Native American, it would be really easy to put America in a pretty harsh light.

There's a wide number of PC applications that use that much memory, yes. But most of them aren't going to be running on a console. Watching video (even at 1080p) does not require anywhere near that much memory. Listening to music doesn't require anywhere near that much memory. Basic internet surfing doesn't require…

I was going by the specs I remembered reading for PCSX2.

6GB of RAM is overkill for a mainstream PC right now, and is WAAAAAY beyond overkill for a gaming console that's only ever going to be doing 2 (maybe 3) thing at a time. 1GB would be skimping, but doable, and 2GB would be decent. Especially if they have around 1GB of separate, dedicated video memory). And even a few…

For Netflix to ever actually replace cable, it's going to have to cost somewhere around as much as cable. That's how much the content licensing is going to cost them. I don't see how people don't realize that.

In theory, I think this would make it really hard to implement FULL PS3 BC. Hell, right now AFAIK it still takes a very powerful computer to emulate a lot of PS2 games well. But, I could easily see a dual to quad core CPU being able to emulate the PowerPC based PPE, and if they use a Fusion-type chipset, the APU might…

The vast majority of people who disagree with him haven't actually seen Comcast's streaming options. There's much more recent content that people actually want to watch there than there is on Netflix, most newer shows get there faster, and they can get streamed on a lot of devices (on iOS and Android, and about to be…

That was.....impressive.

Yup. How do people think FX survived as a channel for so long with absolutely NO original programming?

Rumble + audio can depict something pretty easily. Which is part of the point of this audio. The question is whether you'd call what they depict a "video game".

The thing missing from this entire conversation is resolution. It might actually take a 580 to run it at 1080p (with acceptable framerates). But that doesn't mean a 560 couldn't run it at 720p. Or a 550 couldn't run it at 1024*768.

With responsiveness specifically, the main way people will judge that is in the time between when you touch something, and when the intended action occurs. While, in theory, a twice as fast processor will get things done in half the time and run just as well, in practice giving the touch interface it's own thread so…

Mobile OSes tend to let a lot of stuff run in the background if you're not careful (by design), so more cores should help with responsiveness, especially on Android.

It's called football because you don't play it on a horse.

When writing an Android app, you have to declare each and every permission that you need pre-compile, or else when you try to call that function, it won't work, even in testing. For example, if you don't declare that you need internet functionality, then you can't even compile the program, let alone test the internet…

Harmonix has announced a panel at PAX East this year that's basically going to be about the future of Rock Band, and have said there are going to be major announcements there. I think Rock Band 4 (whatever it ends up being) is going to announced and released this year.
