There are some quality games on iOS but yes, there is a lot of rubbish. Though the DS and 3DS aren't exactly much better. The sheer amount of brain training/cooking mama clones/fashion games/Nintendogs/cats/horses/you name it clones is staggering.

Hey - no one said the masses wanted quality. Quantity and perceived choice is what matters - it's how Sony toppled Nintendo's market dominance with the PlayStation.

maybe if DS games didn't cost more than 10 times as much as their largest's competitor's software (iOS), people would be less inclined to pirate

Exactly. Even when consoles were the shit, the Pippin was ignored.

no, the world isn't going to miss all those unused copies of Bayou Billy

If i'm choosing from cars I've never driven, Aston Martin DB7 GT. I would never tire of the sound of this beauty for as long as I live and breathe. It's also one of the most beautiful cars ever made.

I am normally not a fan of this generation of Impreza but this is hottttt!

I love this game. I bought it for my DC as soon as I heard it existed.

I have no idea, but it was a common design element back in the 80's. The Atari 2600 and 7800 were like that, as well as other machines. I think the NES was actually one of the first consoles to start putting it on the controller.

I am torn between the gross irresponsibility and the staggering level of car control on display.

I raise you one ASCII GameCube keyboard controller

If this were the mid-60's, and I were buying a car, my brain would say Toyota Corona, but my heart would say Ford Cortina or Fiat 124.

It was my first car - cost me $450 and I fanged the shit out of it in a pine plantation for a couple years. Had over 220,000km and still drove fine - only sold it because the air con was knackered (the compressor actually fell out of the car during some particularly rough driving) and it only ran on leaded fuel.

Second-gen Sega Saturn controller is the best digital controller.

I used to have the Australian J-car - the Holden Camira.

I'll apologise and recant what I said as I responded to your third post. The subsequent ones after that one hadn't loaded when I opened this page and typed/submitted the response. Sorry :\

Hooray! I've been enjoying TGUSA a lot, especially the second season. The lower budget I actually think helps it - I like it when Top Gear is more down to earth, and I think TG UK is starting to forget that.

So there should be one standard for public displays of affection for straight people, and one for queer people? Really selling the 'not homophobic' idea there.

"Homophobia is a range of negative attitudes and feelings towards homosexuality or people who are identified as or perceived as being LGBT. Definitions refer variably to antipathy, contempt, prejudice, aversion, and irrational fear."
