My rule is: You can joke about anything, but you don't have to laugh at everything.

Flame thread. Don't make these.

My two cents about aliens is that there is an extremely high chance of there being intelligent life on other planets, but have they visited us, not likely. Loch Ness monster is pretty much bunked. For a gigantic being to be able to remain hidden in a lake is impossible. And if you consider...

Are you even reading the posts before you? These matters have been adressed on several posts. 1. Standard (aka. the pro) HAS a hdmi port now. Every new standard console has it. 2. 60GB is enough to store you games in it. You can store ten or nine games on it at the same time. After you are...

Saving games on hard drives does boost the loading speeds. One such is Fable 2. It really depends on the game how much it will boost it, but it will. Some speed up by one second in load times, some by ten.

There is no need to go elite with HDTV, standard has the same ports and connections as the elite now. If you buy a new console, it will had HDMI. Just don't go with the arcade.

Only difference between elite and standard is that the elite is black, has a bigger hard drive and might have a couple of extra cables in the box. Standard has enough storage space if you don't want to store everything for a really long time. 60GB in standard is easily enough. Game stored...

Arcade is a bit useless for it has no hard drive (pretty much mandatory) and if you are not going to download and store every single video and demo while playing simultaniously several games (images stored on hard drive, you have no need for the elite, besides that cool black color. Middle...

One key to this is the rate of developmental changes. Back in the old days when something revolutionary was developed in gaming, it was really something big and different. Think back to the times when you saw your first FPS game. Those changes were huge. These big leaps were the great things we...

Obviously they made Beautiful Katamari because XBOX was selling like crazy at that point, and it had a strong consumer base. WII'a controller would be great for this. Twisting the wiimote would be such a natural way to control your rolling. At this point they can't seem to decide, or bother...

The first ever Doom game and the first Alone in the dark. These might not sound very scary, but let me remind you that when these games came out, there was no scary games at all. Those of you who have played these in the old days know what I mean.

Actually the PC version of FF7 has already had lots of mods done which change the graphics to much better. It is not PS3 level, but now the characters have fingers.

No offence, but get ready for a massive amount of disapointments. If you are so impatient, you propably glorify these things in your head to the point where pretty much nothing can live up to the expectations. I have been gaming for over two decades, and I have had so many disappointments, that...

Is it so mandatory that you get it in the middle of the night? Can't you just wait a couple of hours so you can get it. Besides, think of the bandwidth usage that the first release spike will cause. I know I won't be bothered to download the update until late tonight, or maybe tomorrow.

I do think that games/movies should have a clear indication that tells if it is not appropriate to some young consumers. Something like a clealy marked box on the back cover with a number. The amount of different age limits could even be higher, why not just put a limit for every age (I know...
