I don't think I'd go as far to say it looks better than Prime 3. It has a highly polished look, true, but Prime 3 has way more visual complexity going for it. You know, the game is really awesome and all, but a minor gripe for me is that it's just too easy. In Mario 64 and Sunshine, getting...

Haha, spudz takes exception to my characterization of Those Who Make Things Happen With Money.

Well, since most everyone else in the industry besides the moneymen are on the side of the writers, I get the feeling a deal will be struck sooner than later. They could possibly replace writers (almost impossible), but they can't replace everyone (beyond impossible).

Question of the Day: Are these boards more or less dead for good? Sure feels like it.

I played Halo 3 all night on Halloween. :P

Haven't played Orange Box or Bioshock yet but I intend to. Then I can see which of the three big FPSs is my favorite. Halo 3 is pretty strong, though. Metroid Prime 3 is in the running, too, but it's still not on the level of the first one. This is definitely a good year for FPSs.

Ehh, not really.

It's mathematically unsound. If you convert both games (Disgaea and FFT) into their real-number values respectively, then the inequality becomes: 6.23423423 > 9.8732477 And that's mathematically impossible!

Well, what do you expect policy-wise when you have to wade through seas of bureaucracy and counteractive special interests? Usually the most convenient solutions and not necessarily the most effective. Or you can just ignore it and revert back to the dark ages and blame/attribute it to God or...

Well, global warming is a misnomer of sorts in describing what's going on right now. It's the unofficial term. The official and more accurate term is climate change. The trend is warming, but there can be other varying and extreme effects in different geographical regions that don't involve a...

Quite right.

Question of the Day: We all love the Geico cavemen ads. So what about the new sitcom on ABC? Any thoughts? I don't know. I feel like people don't get the show at all and its humor. It's definitely got an unusual tone to it. That's what is leading people to say that it doesn't quite...

I woulda grasped that without dumb fantasy baseball because I pay attention to the Red Sox stuff. :P But anyway, the Red Sox to me have big game players who crank it up a few notches in the post-season (Schilling, Beckett, Manny, and Ortiz specifically). That will rub off on the other players...

Phillies got swept along with the Cubs and Angels, so throw that out of the window. :P Look at spudz over here. He thinks the Red Sox still have underdog/curse/inferiority cred. No, they're a major player nowadays who I think are going to win this year. The Red Sox actually have that swagger...

Well, my Cubs logo signature didn't last long. They gone. Oh well, there's always next year. :P Will the 100th anniversary be the cursebreaker? As for QOTD, I'm in the same boat of not thinking about it. But it's kind of cool that it's lasted this long.
