...who's a Jewish fundy who opposes the existence of breasts. Oh, I get it. Circular logic. "Only fundies oppose titties on TV." "If you oppose titties on TV, you're a fundie." Can't argue with that. Well, I can, but not without feeling the distant sensation that I'm wasting my ...

'cause the USA is ruled by fudies and they don't even try to hide it that much

I got two words for you: Joe Lieberman.

The 7800 GT and GTX are not AGP cards. PCIe only. Read the OP.

Backwards compatibility is overrated. Maybe one out of every ten gamers goes back and picks up back-catalogue games.... and if they already own the games, they likely already have the system, too.

Is it a nice feature? You bet your ass. But it's by no means a system killer.

Heh, I've been looking into buying a new video card since the Radeon 9700.... still haven't done it.

As long as he heals my leprosy, I don't care who he goes to war with.

Two hundred bucks? Get a 6800. And yes, avoid the FX series like the plague.

Oh yeah, I am SO keeping my eye out for that. Hope it sells somewhere in the Valley....

Because it sounds technical and "kewl". It gives a subconscious sensation of authority. It's the mentality that drives Star Trek scriptwriters.

Nearly 500 bucks? How is Sony expecting to make any money off of this>

Sell an average of, oh, five or six games for every console sold, and they'll break even. Rough guesses.

This one's pretty old, and since this information has come out, there have been rumors about Sony pushing the PS3's release back... if so, it could be due to the cost of these components.

I can't imagine a good reason to reveal this.

Ratings. Circulation. Yeah, I'm jaded.

They're destroying a NATIONAL PARK!

But they're getting me high........

My own rig had to settle for low-low settings on this (P4 2.26, 512 PC3200, GF4Ti4400... sigh), but it was still some fun play. Wish the slow-mo were a little longer....

Why is it that they have to churn out crap Ideas and make a film out of it?

Because Hollywood is built around business/marketing savvy, not artistry. The people that can whore themselves out the best get the jobs, leaving the people with the good ideas waiting tables.

What happened with Thompson's thing against Sims 2? He cited another review of the game in that complaint, too.... a review that erroneously claimed that one could see genitalia of the characters in the game. Thompson was wrong about that one. Now he's citing ANOTHER review. He hasn't actually seen ...

I'm downloading the demo and trembling at the thought of what it's going to do to my poor, poor computer. I should be able to run it at low, low prices... I mean, settings.

God damn fucking bullet-time bullshit. I figured something so fucking faddish would be dead in games after the second Max Payne abortion. Take some dramamine and you'll be fine. Bullet time is one of the cooler effects for a shooter, especially if the main character is supposed to be super-capable....

I've never claimed what other people I've met and their opinions matter at all. "Another day and another "Sony is doomed" tirade (actually this isn't very common, most people I met agree that Sony will win again )." Bolding mine. You're welcome. I was wondering what "market...

So HyperionX will ignore what "analysts" say and demand "market research", but bases his own arguments on what "most people [he] met" say?

I think that says it all right there.

Last I checked, gangsters don't build sewer lines and subways.

Die Hard: Nakatomi Plaza. The worst part was that they employed other voice actors to attempt to recreate dialogue from the movie. It sounded terrible. The game was terrible. Children wept when it was released. Terrible, terrible game.

Dave was given a $50 million advance, but he gave it all back to CC when he decided not to do Season 3.

And let's not forget that it took several years for DVD to be accepted as a standard. It wasn't until the late '90s that it really started to take off, and that was without any sort of game console madness going on to muck up the works. Given the chaotic nature that standard shifts have had in the p...

Of course it can be built, but at what detail? Show me what kind of specs your talking about. Jesus Christ, dude, what kind of obsessive psycho are you? Do you not realize that bloating the price of the hypothetical PC in question HELPS my point? Do you even remember what the point WAS? Do you not ...
