    EA Defends Origin From Hardcore Crowd

    At the end of the day, all other issues aside, my prime issue with Origin is simple. EA has proven repeatedly that they will not continue to run an online service that is not successful enough, which means that I have uncertainty that my games will continue to be available one EA decides that...

    MPAA Changes Tune on Megaupload, Sort Of

    There's a logical flaw in their position - according to the international Berne Convention copyright treaty, if it's saved in any way, then it is under copyright - it doesn't need to be registered, and does not need any kind of notice of copyright. Therefore, any of those photos or documents...

    First Tron: Uprising Episode Rises Up Online

    I've played the PS3 version of Evolution, and I didn't find any glaring continuity errors in this episode. My understanding is that they'd planned for this before they started production on the game or the newer movie, so hopefully continuity won't be much of a problem. I am a sucker for...

    PAX 2011: "Dungeons and Dragons Is Like Gospel Music"

    Simplifies it? Really? I'd like some of what you guys are smoking, please. Fourth edition is more complex, and I can summarize why in very simple terms - the average time it takes to play out an appropriately balanced fight. With 4e, a full size group is lucky to be able to finish two...

    David Jaffe PAX Keynote Speaks to the Importance of Voice

    God of War is a classic game? Really? I must be getting old, because I still consider that to be a predominately new game myself. A classic game would be, say, Pitfall or Elite or Pinball Dreams. You darned kids get off my lawn!

    Origin Online Exclusivity Won't Hurt The Old Republic, Says BioWare

    My issue with Origin is based on EA's past online behavior... I don't TRUST them to still have Origin running in a few years after it hasn't performed as well as they'd hoped.

    EA Promises It Won't Delete Inactive Origin DLC

    I personally gotta side with some of the other folks in this conversation - if it's something they have no intention of ever doing, then they should just remove it from their ToS. EA doesn't exactly have a stellar track record for keeping their online services going, and I believe that when...

    Drizzt-Creator Prefers First Edition Dungeons & Dragons

    I find it amusing that his preferred edition of D&D is the one in which his iconic character is bleeding illegal.

    Shenmue City Was Creator's Secret Plan to Finish Saga

    The big thing >I< want to know is this - does Shenmue City have any sailors? Does it know where I might find some sailors? Do YOU know where there are any sailors? Maybe your mum knows, would you check with her?

    StarCraft II Fan Breaks the Competitive Scene Using Evolution

    I was gonna let it pass, but since you mentioned it, I'll go ahead and chuckle with you on that one too... It actually took me a moment to realize just what the heck he meant by "never seizes to amaze me."

    Metallica Coming to Black Ops Launch Event

    In terms of video game fans, I'd be inclined to think this would alienate more fans than it would draw out.
