There's plenty of stuff that isn't that, it just seems like it's all violent.

Anyway, as the article itself says you can't have it both ways, you can't say GAMES ARE FREE SPEECH AND SHOULD NEVER CENSORED and then also write an article about how game violence makes you feel twitchy or angry or whatever. A lot of sites seem to play both angles.

God almighty the level of Blizzard cocksucking on that forum is truly reaching never-before seen levels.

Someone said something to the effect that authenticators can easily be compromised if the main algorithm is broken. This is exactly what happened to RSA, causing them to have to replace tens of millions of tokens for free.

And some Blizzard fanboy actually posted "That's because RSA has shitty coders, unlike Blizzard's elite ones."

I... what... no...

The moment you mentioned ghosting, I thought of the cables...you swapped those?

I use HDMI. Usually from my PS3.
It's not often noticeable. Only when there are high contrast horizontal stripes. Ghosting probably isn't the right way to describe it.

Edit:
here's an image that shows what I'm talking about

Man, I can't see myself ever going for LCD over Plasma for my primary TV.

As for OLED tv's, I hope not. From what I understand, OLED's can lose like half their brightness in 5 years. Due this this, OLED's are great for smartphones and tablets that have an expected lifespan of 2-4 years tops so you won't notice it, but if your going to have a device that will be around longer, like a TV, it's not as good.

In the early 2000s when E3 and the big publishers was trying to bring the ridiculous spending and "one-up-manship" of the 90s into line, the show became a complete executive only affair with nothing shiny to display at all.

In the future, developers will keep the finished DLC off the disc and wait a while to release it. This will give the illusion that it was worked on after the game shipped.

While I don't doubt it happens. And at that happens often. Why would a publisher put money towards a project, especially in LA's case a core franchise involving starwars, and want it to fail

Here is the problem.

They took the concept from the Humble Indie Bundle, so when people see "Indie Bundle" they assume that this is being handled as a 'pay what you want' promotion, and some of the money goes to charity.

What EA did was co-opt the "indie bundle" brand, and charge 20.00 for it, with no money going to charity. If they don't see why people are upset about it, they're more tone deaf than I imagined.

Sounds nice, an easy way to build levels, might have to pick up Portal 2.

The funny part in the article is the assumption that Windows machines will be treated the same way, Phoronix never ceases to amaze, as highly technical as they are, they always sound like 12 year old fanboys.

This game is officially off my radar now. Shifting from one studio to another never goes well. They might as well start over with a new game using similar ideas then re-announce a few years down the line.
