Im assuming the casino compensated the high rollers as I thought poker match staked player money vs player money with the casino taking a percentage of buy in.

That's what it sounds like and it would make sense. It would destroy them to damage their rep with high rollers like that.

It's amazing that they caught them based on spotting 'advantage play' as is what was reported. I suspect there is a lot more to this story that may never be made public

I always thought GW had "Imperial Space Marines" or "Chaos Space Marines" so I'm surprised that they own the generic "space marines".

Played it all the way through (extra bit also) and I felt they didn't go as far as they could have with the puzzles. Maybe it was because they wanted to avoid alienating their typical casual players.

As for porting it? Come on! It should take less than a month to port it to an ipad let alone a pc LOL. There's nothing I saw that was beyond a simple Flash game. Heck it could be ported to HTML5 canvas too.

I kept my pre-ordered copy of Elemental and I look at it whenever I get the urge to pre-order a game.
I'm not joking. I really do.

There is usually more to the story than is revealed publicly at this stage of a case but I find it difficult to fathom that her actions were directly responsible for the reasons that this game has stopped me from ever pre-ordering again

That explains Skip's voice

The guy works a ton. I'm always surprised when people say he needs more work.

Larry 3000 is still my favorite.

BRING BACK TIME SQUAD

Oh, and I'm stoked about silver age Batman. Hope they do it right. Stylized and badass.

The internet has taught me many things that I did not know before such as...
People are glued to toilet seats in public restrooms at big box stores on a monthly basis.

...I remember reading it here before but don't see it the archive, must've been a comment.

I remember that too. I saw the link and thought "OMG! Someone made a video game worse than a GD concert", clicked and said oh, it's just this old interview again

LOL!
Those 60 first class tickets are supposed to be for the production staff and their friends to scout exotic locations.

What a cesspool of greed those negotiations must have been. They probably realized MS was not the pushover cash cow they thought they were and cried foul.

Same thing happened with Marvel. Hollywood tried to eat them alive for years before they took control themselves.

Regardless of the current state of XBLA Steam is probably very concerned about the next gen XB. Their best bet as far as I can see (and I'm no pro at this ) is to have access to Steam as a default on the new PS and MS consoles. Like Netflix probably will.

Epic, awesome, the computer wargamer's wargame.

Unfortunately, requiring players to use their own brain doesn't make money anymore, hence the higher price to compensate for less units sold. Well worth it to the players who want a rich experience as opposed to 'dumbed down' restrictive 'hand holding'.

I will easily play this one for the next five years.

Good luck tomorrow, Blue.

Had a similar situation and it was very easy thanks to the magic of nitrous oxide. Afterwards, over the counter painkillers were enough for me after the novacaine wore off.

Probably a result of that backwards date thing the Europeans do. Sometimes they let their produce spoil because they get so confused over which number is the day and which is the month. Oh, those wacky Europeans.

or maybe they read it upside down. Those wacky Nords!

It looks like the DRM for this will be "a one-time activation on install, NO always-on DRM." However I also hear murmurs of "players who are online will get bonus incentives" which sounds like Heroes VI's essentially always-on DRM.

Your move, Ubi. Will this be the, geeze, fifth game of yours I didn't buy because of your DRM, or will you wise up?

'One time' or 'always on' will decide whether I buy this or not.

It looks excellent.

This is exactly the kind of decadent disgusting garbage that will kill the video game industry. It makes our children violent, sexually abusive miscreants who will bring about the post apocalyptic hell that they seem to revel in on their facebooks and in the twitter!!!

Just two questions.

1. Am I doing this right?

2. Will I be able to pee on people and things?

Ashley, that's just the shitty tabloid-style editors at the Escapist making a headline that will successfully troll their retarded forum members into chewing through 400 posts of recycled console vs PC argument.

I don't understand. Are you saying that Mr Capps did not say that.

LOL PC plans until the next interview...

From Andy Chalk at The Escapist 17 May 2010

Epic Games President Mike Capps says the studio switched from PC to console development because "the money's on console" and that the future of the PC market lies with games like Farmville.

I think the Oblivion interface was serviceable but I'd stop far from calling it good. Barely adequate maybe? This game seems to be taking the same approach. It's not enough to make me avoid a purchase but it is a very lazy design and seems to say "ok well modders will fix it up again".

This quote made me miss Code Monkeys so much. As I read it I heard it in Todd's voice in my head.

I'm playing Morrowind GOTY again while waiting for Skyrim. I forgot how weird it was compared to Oblivion. Hope they put some of that weird into Skyrim.

NASA, DARPA looking for your input for futuristic space exploration dialogue.

I think the creators of Vault-Tec would be excellent at helping with long term space flight habitation offers. Hope they contact DARPA.
If they do, I would not want to be a crew member
