So I guess ActiveX having direct control over your Registry under normal running circumstances isn't grounds for unmeasured fear of Microsoft's inability to protect its own products from being needlessly exposed to attack?

Silverlight is another Microsoft product. They often aim for interoperability at the cost of overall security.

While true, I'm pretty sure that all of the females are using male avatars to avoid being hit on 24/7.

It's a rule of the internet: All women are men in order to hide from the real men on the internet.

Suikoden 2 really needs to come out on PSN... Short of the highly-overpriced eBay auctions, it's impossible to find a working copy of the game anymore.

Anyway. Miura did a good job when he took control of Suikoden 5. Let's see if he captures the spirit of Suikoden with Tierkreis.

I think people need to remember that SO4 and Infinite Undiscovery weren't Square Enix games at all. tri-Ace is an independent developer that had Square Enix publish their games. IU is a Microsoft IP, to boot. SO4 is the only aberration of the lot, most especially with the two newest Star Ocean remakes having been released on the PSP (I seem to recall the trailer to SO4 being on the remake of SO1 in Japan... whoops?)

The Last Remnant is the only game Square Enix made out of tha...

"It is intolerable that anyone would purchase a game that simulates the criminal offence of rape,"
Just like the criminal offence of murder in the many non-war games we have? Just like animal cruelty (read: setting up animal fights) in things as benign as Pokémon?

Hypocrisy has always amazed me. These types of games aren't even rated for sale in America by the ESRB. It was an imported game that was being sold by a private owner on Amazon's shop system. Wh...

Last I checked, Runes of Magic wasn't Runescape... JAGEX makes Runescape, while Frogster makes Runes of Magic. Two different things.

Title's misleading.

When it says to ignore the story, I can't help but say "screw you". I love the storyline of the Killzone series and can honestly say that not knowing the backstory makes it that much harder to understand why I'm reluctant to kill the Helghast.

Sarcasm, you do know that people would then compare the amount of people who gave "Buy it", "Rent it" and "Pass it" ratings, right? You can't avoid people wanting to flaunt their e-peen.

So, fiscal year 2009?

2010 Japanese release confirmed. Let's see if it'll also be given a 360 release in Japan as well... (*sigh*)

Firefox being Open Source actually means anyone can freely add open source content to its base code, not create add-ons that can't be removed. This is most definitely on the side of hijacking a program they don't have any rights to.

Here's hoping the Mozilla team actually finds a way to block this in the future.

You didn't understand a single thing I just said. "Start" or "Select" for "Yes" or "No" to a "Restart?" prompt that appears the instant you fail. I'm not talking about pulling up the menu screen, just suggesting out-of-the-way buttons to press to restart an event instead of having to go into easy drive.

That's the least ergonomic way they could have given us a restart option. I would've preferred they give us the option to press Start or Select for "Yes" or "No" when you fail an event and everything goes into bullet time (to tell you about how you won or failed).

I'm sure nobody short of programmers will understand what this even means. Then again, this sort of behavior is slightly similar to that of serializing program configuration and runtime data.

The same thing happened to the free Japanese LBP suits. They ended up costing money in America (Toro & Monkey)

Kinda hard, seeing as how Liberation is the explanation for the entire setting of this game.

If you even took the time to read Tycho's news post for this comic, you'd see these guys are dead serious about what this comic represents. They played the MP beta in the past and loved it, so I don't see why you think they're still trying to make fun of KZ2.

I'd rather just use VB.Net's drawing capabilities coupled with DirectX, but to each their own. XNA's the newbie programmer's game creator (though I actually prefer GameMaker).

"7. Heroes are bastards too."
This person obviously hasn't played games outside of Final Fantasy's main series. Even FFT had a conflicted character in Ramza.

Since the game division reported a profit compared to nearly everyone else, guess who's in good standing at Sony right now.

I think everyone's forgetting that Sony has complete control over emulator creation. They can just as easily use the RSX to aid whichever cores they dedicate to emulating the now-missing graphics processing unit the PS2 had.

While not impossible, it's sure as hell far harder and more costly to do.
