Care to cite examples. I can't remember the last time I played a game where I was at a disadvantage because I didn't buy something. In all of the CoD franchise, have they even ever offered anything other than maps? No. There's nothing to worry about. The best gun is always unlocked early anyway.

I traded Brink in. I'll try to hold back my disappointment and frustration and give you some honest thoughts.

Map packs, more file storage online, free skins for guns, early access to content. I highly doubt this actually has any effect on gameplay beyond bundled DLC. In fact, they talk about this as something that won't put anyone at any disadvantage. It's an optional service for those interested. I'd sign-up for the free…

Honestly, I think Facebook sucks, but it's ability to allow you to find and connect with all sorts of people is undeniable. I'd be down with playing in a group that was kids I went to high school with, people I've worked with, or just the ability to not have to play with or against a bunch of annoying teenagers.

I find it awesome that he gets paid to keep doing this. I doubt he just did that for free anymore. The original is one of my favorite videos online.

Sounds like exactly what CoD Elite is also giving to users for free. Sounds like Bungie.net, sounds a lot like a lot of other similar services.

This is exactly what it is. A giant CoD social network. It's going to be the facebook of gaming. Honestly, I think it sounds like a good idea. I'd probably find more people I'd want to play with in this situation than the xbox live integration of facebook.

Why? Exactly how is the hurting the CoD experience. In fact, when did FREE things become a bad thing. I don't know if I'll pick up MW3, but I think the groups feature and advanced stats tracking, custom learderboards, etc. are all really good additions.

I never really got into the first game, nor do I remember it looking anything like this. That looks like a game I would buy.

So I get that if you want to run this on a keyboard/mouse computer you can, but the video was 100% about touch screens. What I saw looked really really great for touch devices (at least portable tablets) especially in form factors like say the ASUS Eee Pad Transformer.

Back sweat would be on the top of the list, alongside the acceptability of a backpack among certain workplaces. Or just how large backpacks generally are by comparison. Theft comes into play.

I'm of the belief that if a shoulder/messenger bag is uncomfortable, it is usually because you have too much weight in it for it's intended use. Keep it light or find a different style bag or straps.

I can see this going downhill fast.

There is a reason I keep some people as "facebook friends". They are not exactly the same group of people I personally want to be contacting outside of facebook and those who I am that close with, I already have their info.

Except unlike Apple, Google doesn't care if you are side loading apps not in the market.

The stock dialer is lackluster at best. I wish it would be updated and add some standard features. I can search for everything, but it just makes more sense to press the phone icon to make a call, then the contacts, search key, or anything like that.

I'd say the most important thing is to actually RIDE the bike you're looking to buy. Fit is a big part of making that experience better, but riding a bike will tell you everything you need to know about it. Starting with, will I actually use this thing. Any bike shop should be happy enough to fit you on the bike you…

Is it bike are too expensive or is it our perception of what a bicycle is that makes the price seem to high? Accessories are expensive. If you consider a bike your main mode of transportation, $600 is not that high. For recreation, it can be pricey.

I think your point is better left at "I don't like them". I understand what you are trying to get at. Some people just use things because they think it's cooler. It's not my money wasted.

They were not invented to be "cool", they were invented for messengers, mail delivery, etc. They never have to be taken off of your body to access the contents inside the bag. The single across chest straps allows you to swing it around to the front of your body when you need access to the bag and swing back to your…
