    U.S. Air Force Finishes PS3 Supercomputer of Epic Proportions

    On one hand it's cool to see video games systems used this way but on the other hand it's kind of douchey. The only reason it's "cheap" is because Sony can't charge what the system is actually costs to make.

    Id's Carmack Positive Digital Distribution Will Destroy Retail

    I may not be an economic genius, but I do notice trends. Sure it might make the games cheaper to sell, but how much do you want to bet that you ISP will start changing more and more for bandwidth. There are still many ISPs that limit the amount of bandwidth a person can use during a monthly...

    Id's Carmack Positive Digital Distribution Will Destroy Retail

    I find it funny how naive people are. So many of you assume that digital distribution will make games cheaper because it is on Steam. I hate to break it to you but the only ones who it will be cheaper for are the developers, especially for consul. Why lower the price when they can just keep...

    Copyright Lawyers Sue Lawyer Who Helped Copyright Defendants

    I would like to point out to these douche bags that they probably are breaking some sort of law if they actualy do double the settlement amount for people who put up a decent legal defence with this package.

    Mark Wahlberg Confirmed For Lead Role in Uncharted Movie

    YeaH it was basicly allegory to the Cold War and what might happen if the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. would push the big red button.

    Does Bill O'Reilly Think The Simpsons Are Real?

    Wow. You guys honestly think Bill O'Reailly gives a damn about the Simpsons? He probably only used it because there were no other idiot celebrities to make fun of for that day. To quote O'Reilly you guys really are Pinheads.

    Former Sony Exec Believes Sony and Microsoft Will Join Forces

    Personally I think it would be a horrible thing if they partnered into one console, like a few have said Capatalisim leads to inovation. If there is no competition then they I think the gaming industy would stagnate. As for the whole anti-trust aspect. A lot of my fellow Americans here forget...

    Rumor: PSP2 Images Hit the Streets

    Well all I have to say is that if this is true then Sony better have learned it's lesson from the PSPGo debacle and put some sort of disc format if they want it to sell out side of japan.

    Spike Releases Moderately Perplexing 2010 VGAs Nominee List

    Wow this is seriously a mixed bag of WTF!?!?!? For christ sake best Music Game and best Sound track are almost the same fracing catagory with the exception of one game in each. Personally ever since Fall Out 3 won GOTY 2 years ago I consider the Spike VGAs a joke.

    Codemasters CEO Calls Pre-Owned Sales Model "Destructive"

    Yeah there is risk but you also have to take into consideration that these companies only sell new games. Every used game was new at some point. So they have all ready made their money off of the used copy when it was new. If these companies are losing so much money because of the used...

    Codemasters CEO Calls Pre-Owned Sales Model "Destructive"

    I'm sorry but I have to disagree. If the developers want a piece of the profits from used games then they should front some of the cash. Remember places like Game Stop have to actually buy back the game from someone in order to resell it. Since they are fronting all the cash/credit, and risk for...

    Square-Enix Extends FF14 Free Trial Yet Again

    I feel your pain on this one megs. I, like alot of people, became a fan of Square with 7, but ever since 10 and the merger with Enix it just seems like a completely different company. It's a real shame. After playing 13 I think I have pretty much given up on Square.

    Square-Enix Extends FF14 Free Trial Yet Again

    Same here man. I was a level 52 Galka Red Mage before I finally had enough. I just didn't have the time to sit around for a party, find one, spend an hour to travel all the way out to it, and then have it break up upon arrival. I think the last 1/2 year I played I only stuck around because I...
