". . .does that mean that Kinect *doesn't* actually capture personal info?"
Until we hear otherwise by credible gaming journalists who would decide to dive deeper into this answer (*scoff*), I think it would be safer to assume that 'tailoring' ads to personal info could possibly be simply gliding your hand over the advertisement on XBL (accidental or no) or even clicking on it. Similar to how ad placements work on the internet.

I consider this review untrue until a critical reviewer on metacritic posts at least the same score. /s
In all seriousness, I'm certainly glad to see fans are having a great time in the MP. Although it will be some time before I'm able to acquire this game, I shall try to keep my anticipation constantly peaked by diving in Warhawk whenever I'm able.
I had the same question as you in regards to SWTOR handling more action at once on mine. I think (<- stress that part) there's limited cases where a few higher-end laptops can do it, but forget you can forget about it in typical ones like Dell, Toshiba, etc etc.; only thing you can do is constantly check to see if a software update is available for that video card (which hasn't even happened for me yet).

The whole different actors/face change ordeal he did in...I think it was Diamonds are Forever.
It reminds me of that Seinfeld episode of that character Jimmy who always talked in the third-person.
"Jimmy's open!"
"Jimmy did pretty good out there."
"Hands off Jimmy! DON'T..TOUCH....JIMMY!&quo t;

Very cool to see you keep track of that. :)
I personally hope Blofeld is the main villian of Legends. It would also be a nice tip of the hat to have the original and changed form between the...was it three (?) Bond films he was in.
Hope everyone enjoyed the blog :D. Feel free to discuss other actions the company has recently to cause you to be angry at them (rants are more than welcome!).
I know this might not feel as "current" as it would have been ~30 days ago, but this small series idea had been rattling in my brain for awhile, but I just failed to act upon it. The series is essentially taking the Star Wars saga episode titles so feel free to PM me with what you think the next title will ...
It's definitely a treat to have an extended conversation on the game I'm reviewing, especially when said game is one of those complete hit or miss titles for critics and users. This discussion especially felt like an honest one-on-one discussion similar to those of reviewer podcasts trying to dive deeper into what made this resonate with him/her.
Thanks for your points, Mr. Goodno. :D

In regards to PS3 control complaints (first 2 or 3 dashes):
- Even when goofing off and experimenting with things such as grappling hooks, I don't recall terrible issues like that. The shifts he made were a bit touchy, but not to the point of were I would keep missing the right landing spots. Perhaps PS3 owners have to wait some kind of patch.
- I too had a few problems with climbing at certain points, but it was mostly segregated to pipes intersections...
- While I'm not going to disagree that certain game mechanics like the heavy storm or ability to gulp fruit cocktails while hanging from the side of a building are unrealistic, that never became a relevant complaint to me. I could understand the use of silly game logic for the sake of giving me such a great sense of urgency. The dust storm in the city really felt similar to the idea swimming underwater in a cave for so long and plotting certain points to come back up gasping for air. T...
I'll be sure to check it out eventually :). I can't help but expect the best in their narratives since SA.
I think 4J mentioned updating it from Beta 1.6.6 (current 360 version) to Beta 1.7.3 in the near future. I'll try to edit with a link.

Nice ending :P. My interest would be heightened if I had the necessary items :(. Is that immersion factor hindered terribly by playing with just a SixAxis controller?
Hope everyone enjoyed the review. :D
Like that of Dear Esther, I implore you to look at both ends of what I AM Alive received from critics and users (except IGN's review). I honestly can't blame anyone for utterly slamming this game for certain missteps. The aspect that really stuck to me was how depressing the game was able to be without overdoing it. *SEMI SPOILER* There was even one person I helped whom later hanged herself. *END SPOILER*

Yeah, Rainbow Six: Vegas is still my favorite FPS of this generation (it's close with a few others). I don't know about the 'gripping story' part mentioned in the list though :/.
-"Ah so even YOU are not sure what the point of the title was."
I think I made it clear enough that was my initial interpretation. Instead of whining about the score, you could have asked the reviewer yourself what the title meant(I know...crazy concept). Given that Val has had ample time to reply-and I have 4 agrees-it seems to me that my interpretation was correct.
-"This score is WAY below the average. About 2.6 points below the average. I...
Who are you to say what determines a final score or not?
"You should be grading the game itself and not comparing it to other games."
This might make sense for a new ip, but not for a third sequel. We're meant to grade sequels both by what advancements they've made to their predecessors AND the genre as a whole. Valenka simply believes those advancements were too minor.

+10 for making me giggle like a school girl in anticipation for the unveiling.
:P
Since this whole ordeal of Motorola and Microsoft coming to an agreement is happening in the US, I'm fairly sure that means the Federal court can file these types of injunctions for any global cases.
