| I figure that there will be a keygen for this and EA's version before the end of the year, if not the end of summer. |

| No, we are not getting too much information on data breaches. What little we do get does not come fast enough to be very useful, especially if your data was part of the breach. |

| The White House is just plain wrong, as are the ISPs that voluntarily went with this crappy idea. Apparently no one has learned a thing from the RIAA using IP addresses as the sole means of misidentifying actual people infringing copyrighted material. |

jimnms wrote on Jul 6, 2011, 05:04: I'm not advocating banning anything from anyone, but John Stewart made a good point on the Daily Show the other day. He showed a clip from what looked like a new Mortal Combat game of a two guys pulling a woman's legs and ripped her in half at from the crotch up. That is protected free speech, but if her nipple slipped out while being torn in half, it would be banned. Why is violence OK and considered free speech, but nudity isn't? Why are kids not allowed to see or rent violent movies, but violent games are OK?
I don't think the government should ban any of it, I think parents should, you know, be parents and choose what they want their kids to see/play. You are absolutely correct. That is why parents need to understand the ESRB ratings. There are very good reasons for Mortal Combat to be rated M and those reasons are listed on the box. |

The chicken thigh fillets I was going to cook turned out to be startlingly rancid. Ugh! Least you caught it before you ate them...
Too bad this wasn't caught before they were packaged. Had a human been present, the stench would most definitely been noticed at that time! |

A new bureaucracy will be created to 'properly regulate' the sale of mature games and all will cheer. The employees of this agency will vote for democrats and play the political game of taxpayer extortion and democratic voters will claim the earth will be sucked into a black hole without this essential agency, even though it existed for 4.6 billion years just fine without it. Many billions of dollars will flush down this toilet and all the while people will denounce game producers as immoral while monetary inflation from Fed counterfeit (deficit) funding of illegal federal programs (like regulating game sales) continue to rise. You need to turn off Fox News and get outside more often. |

Dev wrote on May 26, 2011, 23:08: Wow, now thats impressive. Putting money where mouth is. And as they say, it stopped pre-release piracy. Plus if publishers insist on having DRM in the actual retail version, guess what? Its still there to fit the letter of whatever contracts they have. But the users can easily officially remove it.
Come on ubisoft, I bought settlers 7 complete pack (included all DLC) on this $20 sale, time to remove the DRM. It was a pain signing up for all that crap. The game is now what, over a year old? It would be even more impressive if the patch didn't fail to install without uninstalling all mods and the game itself for so many people. This was a rush job and it shows. Yes, getting rid of the DRM for retail purchasers is nice, but hosing the direct-download purchasers to do so is not a plus. |

| Conducting experiments with a result already in mind typically leads to the desired result being found, regardless of the actual data involved. This not only applies to studies of the effects of video game violence, but to the hunts for 'dark matter' and 'dark energy'. Steven Covey called it 'beginning with the end in mind' in his book 'Seven Habits of Highly Successful People'. |

| What a shock, the studies Leland Yee used don't prove what he thought they did when he wrote that execrable legislation of his. Hopefully, SCOTUS will continue to rule in favor of corporate entities and scuttle this nonsense once and for all. |

Oh, goody! Yet another self-aggrandizing head-shrinker type making claims about video games that are completely unfounded. You know it's going to be one of these types of articles when they use an original Xbox game box image.
If this Pile it Higher and Deeper guy were correct then every other media in which violence is depicted would do the same job of dehumanization and we would have all killed one another already. |

| Zuckerberg has some serious issues. All he wants is money and he really doesn't care how he gets it or who gets hurt in the process. Facebook will be an educational experience, but I don't believe it will be in the way Zuckerberg thinks it will be. |
