Please be a 3DS XL. I'm tempted to get a 3DS, but the DS Lite, DSi and 3DS are all the same size — too small for my long-ass fingers. Plus, a bigger screen is always nice.

Meh. I just use Thunderbird on my desktop, connecting to Gmail via IMAP. Makes things simpler when I've got 5 Gmail accounts I need to check.

Check out the Toshiba Thrive. Android 3.1 on a 10.1" screen, nVidia Tegra 2 chipset w/ 1GHz CPU, front and back cameras, full-size SDXC card slot, full-size HDMI output and USB-host functionality. 16GB wifi-only version costs $429.

Sense? On top of Honeycomb? Goddammit, HTC, stop smearing your ugly bloatware all over your best Android devices.

Gravity is asymmetrical because the distribution of matter is not perfectly symmetrical. If they ran the simulation again, with a different random initial distribution of matter, you'd likely see something similar but from different directions.

Yup. Definitely opossum.

Reading through these comments again, it hit me: If it were a direct port of the game, it would probably wind up under Virtual Console. But it's not a direct port, it's being rebuilt almost entirely from scratch in a new engine, which means (A) the total file size of the original has no bearing on that of the new…

No problems here.

+1 Seconded.

Was that the Logitech wireless one? Yeah, I had one of those. Getting that thing was the first time I was able to acclimate to the S layout.

No, the comic is not in the 360 version. ME1 isn't that expensive any more; you can download it directly from the Marketplace for $20, or find a place to rent it from. I strongly recommend playing through ME1 before moving on to ME2.

I liked that button layout better than the S. I could rest my thumb right in the middle of those 4 buttons, and hit any of them with barely a twitch. Black and White were just a small shift up.

The 360 controller has just as much in common with the Duke as it does with the S. It took the duke's shape, shrank it a bit, rounded it out a bit, then took the S controller's concave thumbsticks (bleh) and button layout (meh). The Black and white buttons became the bumpers, and the jewel became the Guide button.

The Black and White buttons were used for almost every game. In the evolution from Xbox to Xbox 360, they became the bumpers.

[EDIT] Damn double-post.

Indeed, the Xbox jewel should have been made into the Guide button.

Seconded.

Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom, Sonic Booooom...

It's not being released for Nintendo systems because it's going to be download-only, and it won't fit under the WiiWare or DSiWare size limits.

BLEH. That's awful. No. Just...no.
