I'm half-serious. Now that we know that GoW3 isn't going to use that Online Gameplay Programmer Sony was hiring at SCE Santa Monica, it makes Warhawk 2 that much more likely.
I am not a musician, and I have nothing against Iwase's work, but my money's on unintentional plagiarism. Guy was probably going through loads of Cold War music to find strains he could introduce into the final product, and after one long night he woke up the next morning with the perfect song in his head.
In a perfect world, there would be no lawsuits and no money would change hands -- Konami would simply acknowledge the influence and publicly disseminate that confession, the R...
the cries of "you got served" will be nigh unbearable. Can't wait to see a comic about this, though.
but one of the particular cases Nintendo customer support handled was for a three-year old kid who flung the Wiimote into the TV. You could argue that the kid shouldn't be allowed to play Wii in the first place, but it'd be hard to say that he should know better and hold onto the remote.
I think that case involved the old strap, but generally speaking...
Will look like dirt next to the things the community will dream up for Fallout 3. Assuming the community can run the thing on their computers.
Consumer-facing philosophies like these, not just sales prowess, are what made Michal and Marcin entrepreneurs of the year in Poland.
Just how influential Penny Arcade really is. Child's Play, PAX, Penny Arcade Adventures... I won't be surprised if they open up a restaurant next, with Child's Play donation boxes at the door and each register.
After our interview, Tom told me that piracy is "not a major issue" for CD Projekt.
I don't know what happened... they had such potential, and looked and played so well in five-minute sessions.
Now, who knows if they'll get another chance.
Habitat. How many of you knew that LucasArts coined the term 'avatar' when they made the first graphical MMO -- and designed that MMO not for PC, but Commodore 64 -- and that the game ran on an early version of AOL?
Haven't read the book yet, but if it includes interviews regarding Habitat, there will soon be a copy on my shelf.
Rusalka was loads of fun, but fighting Brachyura was a constant thrill. What a finisher.
They stand by their story, as do we.
Not quite a five-star masterpiece, but it comes as close as you can get for something only genre fans will appreciate.
If your primary objective is reducing home power consumption, then yes. Falcons still get RRoD though.
...to save any of the big games this holiday, but lawyers can do to SecuROM what they did to StarForce, well, I'll be overjoyed.
It's not that I particularly hate the idea of SecuROM -- I actually like that the latest version at least allows you to stop having to insert the #*%&*#$ disc to play some games -- but the implementation is horrid.
And at the end of the Napoleon Dynamite quest, we can have Alya, Frog and Robo sprites dancing to Strong Bad's The System is Down.
Not as jam-packed as this, certainly, but the San Jose State University basement has SFIV machines and plenty of ping-pong to compliment its pool hall and bowling alley.
No student ID required, just a willingness to mingle with college kids... and the prices can't be beat.
*A 26-inch version is on the way
*Some complain that the iZ3D suffers from ghosting, and this is a hardware concern
*Even cheaper deals can be had at Provantage/Buy.com if you're willing to trust them with your money
I've added an update to the post. It reads:
It has come to our attention that not everyone, even those die-hard God of War fans who typically devote entire forum threads to such topics, originally read or now recall how in early April, a Sony job posting led to rampant speculation that God of War III would be an online game. We therefore apologize to any and all who fail to grasp the sarcasm in our headline above.
This post was supposed to forevermore crush the rumor...
