Consoles have unique services and games that PCs don't always get. As well as the uniformity that enhances compatability with the games and simplicity for consumers. Translation: Consoles = Video games for dummies.

Exactly my thoughts. Sand was quite awesome. I love his quips in the trial with Torio

jcjpjjj I miss CSS. I think i'll do more of it now.

Just Kidding. He wins.

You just won the debate.

The Media in my mind isn't a 'Necessary evil", it's more of an "evil that shall always exist". BTW like the topic. Hmmmm. Quick thoughts I suppose. 1. True, but that's a very vague description of said sensationalization. 2. I think we all trivialize those stories inside our homes once we hear of them. However, to experience them is another matter. I think the media might be to blame for that, so I agree with that statement. 3. They need to fill in a time slot. Simple as that. Quite annoying really. 4. BBC sucks doesn't it? 5. Probably the thing I hate the most about it. When the government in a socialist country doesn't control the popular opinion; the media and the investors do. It's really a question of who you want controlling the masses. Obviously, Mass Media is a horrible thing at times; but with out it, we would be lost.

Ummmmm How do console games even begin to compare? Like, at all?

Sigh, I would like to see how it runs. Though I'm not really worried about it at all, I would still like to see what the game might be like... I'm not going to download that 360 demo when there is no way in hell I am buying this for my xbox.

Cheating is fine by me, as long as it is not multiplayer. It's quite useful when one wants to get through a game to experience the plot and not necessarily the gameplay (I.E. Deus Ex Invisible War..... I did not like the gameplay at all (MEGHHH) ) Yet I find it great that cheating is being slowly eradicated. If you cheat in a game like F.E.A.R it completely ruins the experience of the intense firefights that occur. It ruins the game. And don't we all have an immense feeling of satisfaction when we finally get over that big hump?

You underestimate the stupidity of your average computer user. And of mankind itself.

Did you read Molyneux's comments? (Obviously you did if that is your sig) I really believe he has stooped to a new low. He is now not only blatantly exaggerating claims on his own games; he is insulting game developers that have put out multiple titles that are BETTER than ANYTHING he has ever done in his pitiful life. Fable was a joke. Fable 2 will be a longer joke with a one button combat system.... That isn't really different from the first's.

The first 2/3 of Indigo Prophecy. Then I realized that a video game could never have a story as good as a movie or a book, because the plot completely dies once the police are chasing you. Then I regained faith through Deus Ex.

In Soviet Russia, Windows Vista owns YOU! (It does in a weird, funny way. You don't own your copy, you own a license for Vista to operate on your computer + it is the most paranoid system ever. It doesn't trust anything from the internet or other external media, it hates you for changing hardware and it spies on you to make sure that you don't do anything funny. It simply hates.your.guts.) Have a nice day That really made me lol because it is so true. I just disable all of those annoying little things. They're more in tune with: "Are you sure you want to start word?" "Are you really super duper sure you want to start word?" "You know, if you start word, you might start typing something really weird, and you shouldn't waste your time." "Why don't you lie down?" Honestly Vista is starting to make me think of HAL 9000 ; )

Please don't waste your money on a server solution by M$, use something linux or unix based, it's not extremely difficult to learn at all.

Honestly I enjoyed the sequel more. But before I go on and talk about that, I first want to recommend the movie "Sunshine" to you. It has the same actors, writers, and directors as 28 Days Later. It's an extremely good low-budget sci-fi thriller. However, like 28 days later, the film turns into a slasher at the end. Anyway, I loved the moral ambiguity of 28 Weeks Later. It's rather, do you want to become infected, or get shot by the snipers? I loved how the virus started spreading again, through a kiss. This is somehow very symbolic of the nature of love "betraying us", or maybe I am simply reading into the film too much. Because someone took "more than a heartbeat" around the woman who was infected; all hell broke loose. Either way, I loved the premise of the sequel, though the execution leaves a little bit to be desired. I'd still give it 3 1/2 out of 4 nevertheless. The opening scene in 28 Days Later is to me one of the greatest scenes in recent film history. Just imagine being in his place....
