Yeah, if only they'd crack down on guns, which pretty much always makes gun crime safer for criminals to use on unarmed victims.

Many guns are also made specifically for target shooting, ranging from the Sako Triace, Hammerli X-esse, or Ruger Mk II, to the ubiquitous Desert Eagle.

I could get behind that if, and only if

Much like cars are great fun until someone smashes you into a tree with one... Though if you're shooting guns for sport it's very unlikely you'll be shot with one. Think about it - on a range, there's a range officer, and a bunch of other patrons adhering to the rules. If someone decided to start shooting people, it'd…

All ranges I've been to have staff who are happy to show people around some popular guns. It's good to do because if you have any nervousness around them, it'll go away with a little experience, and they just become another tool. Target shooting is also one of the safest sports to participate in because of the need…

A Nerf fight is a gunfight everyone wins. :)

Sony didn't make Halo, so I don't know what you're trying to get at there unless you confused them with MS. You have the right to resell games, of course, and they have the right not to waste resources on freeloaders.

They're apparently all Aoi Nishimata characters. I don't know if these are direct screenshots or if it had to be tweaked a little though.

[edit: Gotta love an image posting system where you don't know if hotlinks will be refused!]

This. Along with abandoning their old strengths (the 3DS is fiddly and the battery is the shortest I've ever used) I'm done with them until they can do something REALLY good that will last. I feel like they've just been going through the motions for the last 5 or so years.

This may get garbled until it's clicked on, but...

Not really. Many artists, like Kenichi Sonoda, will use different styles of eyes for each character to give an impression of their personality. It's also impressive how many times I've seen multiple characters who are "white," but have slightly different skin tone.

The heroes' sponsorship itself is a device to sell gratuitous amounts of advertising to real companies. Doing it in jest is just doing it in a way there will be less resistance to it. Also, plugging a product that doesn't exist is just plugging the brand itself. Once you're aware of it it can just get a bit glaring.

But that curious player didn't give them any money, so why would they care about whether or not that person plays their game? Like I asked before, if you don't support them, why should they support you? If you only buy used games, you are literally buying from a different games market than the developers are making it…

Teh intarweb. :p

I don't like any retconning of old works, especially for pure $$$. It's kind of interesting for new shows though - I read that Tiger & Bunny does that. While I think the idea is cool, I've never watched the show because it sounds like the biggest sellout in the industry (not wrong, but distracting and tacky) - enough…

Counter-Strike got that way for me eventually. People only cooperated 1% of the time, otherwise it was always random deathmatch. Even when I forbid myself primary weapons, the ratios I got were obscene. Still, rather than devising ways to kick out anyone new, I just acknowledged that I'd been playing too long for…

Yes please. I don't even want online in most games that have it. If I could pay less, that would be great - but then, I suspect most people who buy a game never go online, so I don't expect that to happen any time soon.

Cool... I'll normally rant against cutting out basic features and selling them as DLC, but this approach means:

What was free, is free. What's new, online, and optional is starting to cost a bit - but if you're buying new, costs no more than ever.
