I'd have to toss a coin to decide between The Crow and Queen of the Damned.

The cost of shipping is still a factor, and there's very likely an issue with pricing digital distribution in that the agreement with retail channels won't allow them to undercut retail sales by going any percentage cheaper through digital sales, else they risk losing their retail distribution...

Unsurprisingly, I'm in agreement with the general Escapist consensus that games are not the cause of violence, but why is everyone so willing to point the finger at more, stricter, gun laws while at the same time banging their heads on the desk about people pointing the finger at violent games...

When your original comment asserts that there has been a major change since the days of Quake as a challenge to the statement that id tried Linux and it wasn't worth it, in the context of a conversation about the benefit of dedicating resources to build a native Linux client for games, yes, you...

http://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey Click on OS Version in the January 2013 table and tell me how much Ubuntu usage Valve, who is currently leading the Linux charge, has recorded from their own users? Yeah, that's a MAJOR change alright.

Who also hates windows 8, as it turns out, just like everyone else. He just doesn't think Linux is a worthwhile use of resources. http://www.neowin.net/news/ids-john-carmack-would-be-happy-if-windows-8-didnt-exist

I notice it more in families that are relatively recent immigrants, or those that live in a community where everyone is originally from a specific country, and they marry from within that community. So for example, if someone's parents were from Italy, or maybe even their grandparents, they...

If you're complaining about the yearly sports franchise updates as though they're going to be the end of everything, then I calculate that they've probably been making them longer than you've been alive. First Madden I bought was 1994, it had already been running for a few years before that...

The reason everyone else went F2P is because consumers were unwilling to pay for WoW *and* another game. As shown by the failure of every subscription MMO since 2006. WoW still charges a subscription because they're the only ones who still can.

If you are certain that you will only want to ever work in games, sure, the specialized programs can get you a job if your school has a good placement program and makes sure the studios know their program is worth something, and not one of the late night infomercial type 'degrees' that is about...

Oh I totally agree that's the flaw in the idea, and I myself am one of those guys who has never once bought a pre-built computer but still has a tablet. The conflicting needs and usage patterns is why I hope Microsoft is smart enough to leave PC Windows alone while they pursue the tablet market...

I have to join everyone else questioning the hate for First Class. The first X-Men movie wasn't actually all that good, looking back at it now, but at the time I was excited for the fact that it existed, and there were some brilliant casting choices. McAvoy may not be the perfect choice for...

AMD's 20% will grow among those who care about controlling every part of their system, if Intel puts the squeeze on as described above. What percentage of the total market those people comprise is another question. I have to suspect it's small enough that Intel is willing to let them go in...

Kept the relevant part of the original quote for you. From what I've gathered, the concern Valve has is that, while right now Win8 (x86 and x64) is basically still just Win7 with the addition of the (not mandatory) RT-styled store, WinRT itself is completely closed. What if, one day down the...

While YouTube's definition of Hate Speech specifically covers racist content and insulting generalizations as reasons for content removal, and I'm sure they defined Hate Speech as such to avoid having to come up with a more nuanced policy that would be a pain in the ass for the customer service...
