Well, the farther back you go, the more your ripples can expand. But I think historically, stopping 9/11 would probably mean far more good than bad. The trauma of that event has made us more fearful, more willing to bow to authority and give up rights, more polarized as a nation, and it allowed certain racisms to be…

Are you sure that this hasn't already happened?

That shit should have NEVER been passed. NEVER. :|

This is madness! Are we in Communist China or Putin's Russia or Saddam's Iraq? Why isn't Obama or the progressive wing of the Democratic party speaking up about this totalitarian behavior? Talk about jack booted thugs! The U.S. is officially a police state now.

Two words: Bush administration. The police became paramilitary forces to fight the nebulously defined "War on Terror," arming themselves with surplus military weapons sold to them by the federal government.

I'm leaning towards that belief too. However (and this probably dooms it to that fate even more due to the cost) this would probably work really well with Move. Arm and hand tracking with Move would be amazingly accurate, plus those motion controllers have buttons and sticks. Elder Scrolls with Skyward Sword-esque…

lol you PC people are cute.

I'm still waiting for a gritty and realistic (as far as approach and tone goes) co-op Kaiju FPS game on the PC (not an arcadey console deal). I want to be able to team up with my buds and battle (on land, sea or air) giant monsters wreaking havoc on huge virtual cities!

Much of the credit given to George Lucas should rightfully be applied to Akira Kirosawa. There is, of course, the famous severed arm from Yojimbo; however, my personal favorite is the dueling scene from Seven Samurai in which we meet Kyuzo.
