I'll paste various sections of the article here to make it more clear what I'm addressing...
For starters the article seems to not be much more than an opinion piece. I'm not saying he hasn't made some good or valid points... it just certainly doesn't appear he's taken an objective stance.
"Just one day after writing that here on The Digital Home, Microsoft did just that. And according to its own internal figures, Xbox 360 sales over the weekend subsequent t...
I have Qore and the beta is unavailable. I'm quite sure they said the beta would mostly likely begin towards the end of September. At least for those who've preordered and/or bought Qore Episode 3.
I think that's what Gabe Newell does as well.
Really if you look at gaming as a whole you'll find many different types of characters. Some the most extreme of stereotypes and others much more grounded in reality. However, it just so happens the game industry is much like the hollywood movie industry. Take for example your average hollywood blockbuster and put it up next to your average blockbuster game. You're likely to find the two aren't really that different.
More often than not you have hyper-masculine or hyper-sexual...
Technically the Amazon sales of the 360 SKU's could have doubled as well. Even if one of the SKU's only reached 17 at the highest (I believe that's what it was), at times before there wouldn't even be a single SKU in the top 100. So really the same thing could have been experienced at Amazon... it's just that sales were rather low to begin with at that particular retailer.
Though really I expected this increase. You can't look at this and think it will make NO difference. There...
We succeeded in taking over the entire first page. lol Bubbles to all who participated! :)

Sounds like you got 300 Bluray movies for $20. lol I'd have to start shopping at Best Buy.
104. Siren: Blood Curse
Haha, yeah I just did. Figured it couldn't hurt.
If you're accepted with this is it the same as just buying the Qore episode? I have the Qore episode and I'm just wondering if maybe it's possible to get in sooner via this method?
The problem here is this is a very subjective thing. Unless of course everyone agreed what makes it 'the year of' anything. Some will point to software sales, some will point to hardware sales, others will point the console that has the games they enjoy most. Anyone can 'claim' victory in some way.
I really don't think we should call any year 'the year of' whatever until it's over anyway. Of course you can speculate and make your prediction... but no one should be claiming vic...
Funny thing is if we were to go by Metacritic the Wii would technically have the 'highest' rated 'exclusives'. lol

While I think that's a little harsh, Silo... I must say I don't really respect the way she appears to flaunt her sexuality. I don't really understand girls like this. I have a very hard time taking someone like this seriously. Has nothing to do with the fact that she's a woman. I could be wrong... but it seems as though she's after attention as much as she loves games.
She also says, "One of the main things I look for in a guy is whether he is a gamer or not"... now I...
Haha, I don't even follow the whole cosplay scene and I was able to guess that Omi Gibson would be #1. Just because I've seen here in other lists and such like this. Though they really didn't get a great picture. She does some characters far better than that. Also wasn't surprised no guys made the list. Never do. lol
I think in general cosplayers are kind of looked at as 'geeks' and such though. People with 'no lives'... and while that may be true for some, I believe that's a p...
To add to what some others have said... I don't believe that the point is only that the teens mercilessly tortured a cat... but also that this cat belonged to their neighbor. Not that I'm saying it would have been better had it been their own. I'm suggesting nothing of the sort. But just imagine having your house broken into, trashed, and something you love killed. Yes, I do think human lives are more important than animals... but many people to love their pets very much. For some they're eve...
Animal Crossing did it to an extent. lol
Though I'm not really trying to compare that game with Fable. I can say though that Fable 2 looks to really be 'upping the ante' from the previous game. And this is coming from someone who really isn't a big fan of the first. Perhaps expactions were just too high for that title as I just didn't feel it delivered to the extent that was talked about. However, Fable 2, seems to be much more the game I was expecting with the first. Something...
In my opinion a 5 is quite a harsh review. I've been playing the game for a few days now... and while I agree it's a fairly average RPG, they make some of its flaws sound worse than they are. At least from my perspective. Really if you were interested in this game before and are a big RPG fan I'd recommend you at least give this a rent. I mean, I know the reviews haven't been all too good... but there is things to enjoy about the game.
The combat itself while seeming quite rep...
Now all they need is Kramer! Yes, I'm waiting for him to come barreling through the door in typical Seinfeld fashion...
"Whoo! I just got the new vista. It's b-b-bl-bl-blowin' my mind, Jerry!"
