Hey, don't forget Magnavox. They put out the very first console ever, the Magnavox Odyssey, in 1972.

Ralph Baer is to gaming as the Wright brothers are to flying.

Atari is to gaming as Henry Ford is to driving.

Sony is to gaming as Ronnie Barrett is to shooting.

You try something to say if it's good or bad.... really?
Are you one of those arrogant little boys? You know the ones. They present their opinions as if they were set in stone objective facts. Act like there's something wrong with anyone who disagrees.
I do agree with you. 3D needs a little work (HTC Evo 3d), but it can be mind blowing (Avatar). However. One game is not a representative sample, and anecdotal evidence won't hold up in either a courtroom or a labor...

I just played two hours of Portal 2 in 2d. So yes it is a failure.

What? My comment is just as valid as yours.

Everything is a huge failure at some point.
The ps3 was a huge failure during the "no games" affair
the 360 was a huge failure during that RROD fiasco
The 3DS was a failure right after launch. I forgot why.
I bet if you look, you'll find some articles calling the Wii a huge failure.

And Xbox has exactly nothing to do with whether or not Rockstar has peaked.

So your reason for bringing it up is.... oh I see.

Scale of 10 on the trolling meter you get a 3. Minus several hundred just for trying too hard.

I would think that an author would have more respect for his readers than to butcher the english language like that.

Reading a comment should take less effort than writing it did, not more.

Am I the only one who remembers why Assassin's Creed was made featuring Nizari Ismaili in the first place?

Ninja are a cliche. Wikipedia has an awfully long list of video games featuring the ninja.
Japan will likely never happen. The other four look good. WWI is a Tad worrisome. It was the first war to use airplanes. Could be tricky setting the assassins in that time.
Modern day Los Angeles would be cool too.

The laser lights count the same as the strobes. A velvet cloth gets a +1. A cheap cotton towel gets a -2. A pretty girl gets a +1, but a -1 if she's dressed like a streetwalker.

You're unveiling new hardware. Keep it tasteful.

A new console should be worth ten points.
-1 if priced over $350
-1 if it has a stupid name (have you seen some of the "project" names?)
-1 if you have less than a dozen titles lined up for release within a month of launch.
+1 for backwards compatibility
+1 for msrp<$300
+1 if available worldwide by the end of the calendar year
/2 for every strobe light used during the unveiling.

So a $400 system with onl...

It doesn't matter what you write about. The post itself will get nowhere if it's not well written.

So the Shoah is no big deal compared to 9/11 why? Because you saw 9/11 on TV? Let's run the numbers.

9/11 - 3400 people killed over the course of one day at the hands of 19 Islamic extremists.

The Holocaust- 5.9 million Jews (about 2/3 of the total jewish population in Europe), 3 million Soviet POWs, 2 million ethnic Polish, 1.5 million gypsies, 250k disabled, 80k freemasons, 25k slovenes, 15k homosexuals, and 5k Jehovah's Witnesses killed over the ...

Yes there is. It's the iPSWii60 DS with Android 4.0 and a gv546vx 2.5 12k resolution video card (on a 1080 tv) and Dolby 7.54387 surround sound (over Bose stereo speakers).

Straw polls aren't reliable, because anyone with access can answer the questions (one straw poll during the 2008 presidential election had McCain taking all 50 states, we see how that turned out).
A lot of people with a lot of PhDs put a lot of work into making sure these surveys get a representative sample of the total population. The margin of error comes from a lack of precision inherent in the sample size (smaller sample = less data = less precise results).
This is r...

Lol. I actually stopped playing lbp for awhile because I was jealous of the creative skills I was seeing in that game.

Agreed. I'll take 5 hours of MGS4 or Portal 2 over 50 hours of CoD.

Nothing against CoD, I just don't care for FPSs.

How about: President Sarah Palin, Middle Eastern Terrorists getting an atom bomb, McDonald's hash browns, changing cat litter, top 40 radio and the Ice Capades?

Oh we're talking about video games? 75% of user created levels on LittleBigPlanet, half the user created missions on InFamous 2, PC elitists, Xbox fanboys, PS3 trolls, Nintendo fanboys, Band Hero, Fight Club (the game, not the movie), and Blackwater (the game, don't know a lot about the mercenaries).

I've never played any CoD. I've played Doom and Portal 2.

Guess you could say I'm not really a huge fan of the FPS.

"So why are you here then?"

Because a few people I know are huge CoD fans. I send them the info. And in return they send me stuff about cheesy science fiction and other FPSs. Nice guys. I send you stuff that interests you, And you reply by sending me other stuff that interests you. Dig up something about...
