No kidding... We're smack dab in the middle of a two-month period where the only other big release on PC is a re-rehash of Street Fighter IV, yet they decide to delay it and go head to head with Deus Ex, Space Marine, and Dead Island?

Until ray tracing replaces current raster-based approaches, we'll never have graphics like movie CGI.

Does this mean I don't have to change my region to the Czech Republic anymore when downloading something during a sales spike?

There is only so much you can do with 256mg's of graphics RAM and (even worse) 256mg's of system RAM.

And Carter was still better than any other republican president. Just like Clinton he inherited the mess of 2 republican presidents before him and had to deal with an oil crisis and recession that wasn't his fault, and in spite of it he actually did quite well, not to mention banged out the Camp David Accords to boot. Obama isn't Carter II, he's more like the left hand of Bush. Love or hate Bush at least you know where he stood and where you stood in relation to that. Obama's just long on talk, and short on delivery. What a mjaor dissapointment that guy has been.

Carter was the last real democratic president you'll ever see, and Bush Sr. was the last true republican you'll ever see as president - and in fact the only republican prez in my lifetime that I actually respected. Now it's all 2 sides of the same coin regardless of the public spectacle and histrionics both sides engage in. Welcome to the puppet show!

Yeah, Yerli fits perfectly to any big publisher. Always willing to say anything to support the corporations interests, even if it's utter bullshit and Yerli has to contradict himself everytime. But that's ok. It's his life, his company, his descisions. I wish him well in the future. No, really

Well come on it's got a meta critic score of 5.4, which means it's higher than Dragon Age II. I suppose that's at least going for it.

It’s kind of funny how most PC only titles are coming out of the European theater while the USA seems to be going after the console market only. Not that I mind, I just wish more of the American developers would go this route too.

You forgot MXO... bought it fucked up... didn't un-fuck it up... and shut it down.

That said, their kiddie F2P MMO (Free Realms) seems to be doing good, and last I heard EQ and EQ2 was doing ok, too (Not great, but ok).

Just about every MMO Publisher / Developer fails these days with a stale genre and an over-saturated market. Even Rift is starting to plummet.

Guild Wars 2 seems like the only thing that will stand out / possibly rejuvenate the genre.
We'll see if that game has any lasting appeal... the rest of them, that have come out lately, are only good for 1-3 months... or complete utter flops, out the gate.

A conservative group backed that bill? But, but, but...that's impossible! After all, we all know that everything that's wrong and evil in the world is the fault of anyone who even glances left. Oh, that must be it. They're obviously not "real" conservatives then. Whew!

On the retraction of the Vesperia exclusivity claims - why do I get the feeling that part of the agreement between Microsoft and Namco Bandai requires the parties not to talk about any exclusivity deals? The retraction sounds more like "I can't talk about this" than anything.

Microsoft provided a lot of money for the project but I don't think they published it. It was released for the PS3 in Japan and I doubt Microsoft cares about the 20,000 copies the PS3 version might sell at this date. Despite what people think the Tales series is very niche for the most part, its more likely Namco-Bandai just doesn't see any money in it or misinterpreted their contract terms which is a common thing between western and eastern companies. It's a shame because it deserves more recognition, Vesperia was better than anything Square-Enix has put out since FF12.

PC's are already well beyond console capabilities. In 4 more years, it will be ridiculous. Looks like gaming will shift back to the PC.
