Reminds me of the Gamecube boxes. And that is hopefully a good thing. A return to when they went after the hardcore crowd. Can we maybe see Player's Choice games comeback? That would be awesome!

Smartest move of the 1984 Olympics in LA was using almost entirely pre-existing venues. All they really did was clean them up and upgrade them. It meant that initial costs were very low, and at the end they didn't have to maintain or tear down new buildings. They just returned to normal uses.

Yeah, it's not like Mass Effect is about letting you choose how to play.

I think it was supposed to be your mission wasn't to kill the bad guys because they would just get new goons. General Shepard said as much in the intro: "But you bring down one enemy and they find someone even worse to replace him." Rather, it was to infiltrate and destroy their entire group.

Only to the last one you used though :/

They just announced that it will have the motion comic. So if you haven't bothered with ME1 or 2 you will still be able to make the choices.

It's not difficult so much as the hardware design is radically different from what most computers use. It's like a game having completely different controls from its peers: Even after a lot of practice, you sometimes hit the wrong button to jump because that is the button for jump in every other game.

Ummm... You can go through the entire level without pulling the trigger. It's how I did it. And the other levels give you a game over for shooting civilians.

From a lot of the people I've talked to with Land Rovers, its a matter of comfort to them. Jeep Wranglers are not the most comfortable car ever made. They bounce a lot, are very loud at 55+MPH, the seats begin to make you sore after an hour or two, seating for only 2 maybe three adults comfortably, and the stereo is…

I know, and I paid $16 for FFIII and am more than happy with that. The major issue I have with it being priced at $16 is how I don't link my credit card to my iPhone (I'd burn through all my money in a day), I instead get the prepaid gift cards. And The one I usually get is... $15. One less than what Square's games…

Amen.

I could accept that explanation if other developers and apps were suffering the same decline. But they're not, so it has to be on Google's end.

All of Google's support for Apple Products has been crap lately. Ever use Google+ on an iDevice? The app not only crashes on every use, it more often then not tries to take the whole phone with it. Google Docs? Might as well go back to pen and paper, those actually work. And I doubt it's Apple's fault since even noobs…

Yeah, ever since the OPEC embargo we buy very little oil from them. Mostly they sell to Europe.

This, plus be willing to adjust the price based on the length of the SP. I firmly believe that if Mirror's Edge had been sold at $20 instead of $60, It would have the same level of respect as Portal.

The story is supposed to be revolutionary for any game. That alone puts it back on my radar.

Huh. You're right, never noticed that before.

Anyone else remember the bots in UT2k4? I think they were the acme of good difficulty. Health and damage never changed, just the skill and intelligence of the bots. Even at the lowest settings they still shot at you. And as the difficulty ramped up, so did their brains. they went from being unable to hit you to…

If this can run most windows programs, I agree.

Since you seem to know about this, I have a question about the forward swept wings. I was always told that their primary advantage was drastically increased maneuverability at the cost of stability. The reason for not using them being that they made planes so unstable they were likely to get you killed. Any truth to…
