Yes. Played all of them on PC repeatedly, loved them, had a great time.

I'll wait for one. I refused to play GTAIV without the ability to aim with a mouse, and sluggish assisted anologue-stick gunplay doesn't cut it with me. I love the IV games and bought them all, and the market's only bigger today, so I'd be amazed if we don't get V by next January.

A complete lottery, I'm afraid. My years-old PC was fine with LA Noire on quite high settings, while people with systems that left mine in the dust were struggling. The same thing happened with GTAIV - seemed to love my GTX280, but not everyone had the same good fortune. It could be any number of variables around my…

The anti-flu drugs situation was merely a very high-profile one, but most cases of the more mundane attempts to use aggressive pricing strategies aren't front page news since they're not sexy enough. They tend to languish at page 10 or later in the broadsheets. We need to be angrier about things like this, but there…

You have a good point about submission periods, and maybe those are too strict - perhaps those lengthy breaks actually encourage the companies to play with the data. The submission regulations could be reassessed in the process of tightening regulation of the trial data though.

If it makes you feel any better - and it won't - in the UK, we already have those controls, and prescription drugs are not advertised on the TV or in print.

I wouldn't have so much trust in the FDA if I were you. Trials are very poorly monitored, and pharmaceutical companies are masters of undermining the principle of double-blind testing.

Sometimes, but most of the time, no. For a lot of long-term users, being high is their time to feel normal and get out and do things, perhaps the only time they feel balanced and happy enough to be social with anyone who isn't in their same situation.

The Illumiroom is the Kinect-enabled projector.

It's a lot more than that. Most of all, your projector won't use intelligent distortion to wrap itself around the objects in your room to create an illusion of flatness. As for the rest: watch the video :)

No, you're right. In real life, objects don't have sharp edges; they're always softened to some degree by the effect of light. In artificial 3D entertainment, the current technology achieves the sense of depth through a series of tricks, and the major one creates that "cut-out theatre" effect that you're describing.…

Your thumbs have a very slow response time compared to your other fingers. Your fastest digit is the index finger. Perhaps that player has L1 and L2 mapped to something that can benefit from the index finger on the controller though.

I hope they crawl across the ground, wobbling like a cross between the girl from The Ring and a drunk student.

Who's saying annual CoD is fine? Have you never heard someone say AC (or any release with a fast turnaround on sequels) is "becoming the new CoD"?

You're welcome, nice talking with you too. Sorry for the immense rambling answer!

Thanks for the answer, sad though it is!

Yes, there's a constant bubbling of concern about the degree to which the benefits system is thought to be abused. It doesn't stand up to scrutiny - see this article, for example http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2013/apr/24… - but the press is overwhelmingly right wing, so it's a battle. Only The Guardian, The Independent…

Yeah, she was great (although, saying that, I've never seen her fail to shine in anything she's done). Her acting range is phenomenal, but she's also got that ability to shift both her accent and the weight of her voice to suit the role.

I see your argument, but surely there's got to be room between the two extremes for a system that works? I'm sure it happens from time to time in the UK, but either it only makes the news in the US or the problem is much smaller for the UK's NHS.

She's in her early 40s and he's in his mid 30s, so she is a little bit older. I think they look great together.
