Games are boring for the same reason.................
new music is boring and new movies are boring. Cliche.....the marketers and bean counters have too much control over the creative proccess. Therefore you get standardized formats, with well polling character types, simple to follow yet "engaging" plot lines, and a host of other "features" designed to minimize investor risk. Nobody is investing in the creative process anymore just the business side. View

I think that if.........
Any of the players in the computer industry are interested in staying in business are going to have to adapt to a U.S. in recession. One way to do this would be to eliminate either the CPU or Graphics card. I think AMD/ATI were smart as they could bring something to the table with harmony. The Intel/Nvidia fight can only play into AMD/ATIs hands...if they don't screw up. View

I know why.............
What everyone seems to forget was that when Sony first started talking about the CELL it was suppose to be the only chip in the system. There initially wasn't suppose to be a graphics chip. They touted the cell as a floating points and physics monster also capable of rendering graphics. At some point this fell to the way side and they introduced a graphics chip. The RSX doesn't do all the graphics workload itself the cell processor is able to assist, heavily. At one point sony was parading around figures that showed what the cell was capable of and what the cell and RSX together were capable of. At the time, 2004, the numbers were crazy.

As for the graphics card being more important than CPU, I've known this forever. The last time I built a gaming computer from the ground up was 2001. I bought the most advanced motherboard and a 2nd tier proccessor I could find at the time. I only had 512mb of ram and a top of the line geforce 4. By just upgrading the ram to 3gig, the graphics card, and over clocking. I was still able to play most games at good settings two falls ago. Then a fan crapped out when I was at work and my g/f was on the computer. She didn't know and frrrrryyyyy. Really though I couldn't have taken it much farther AGP was holding me back. I can't remember what the graphics card was but it was one of the last good ones to come out for AGP.

My PC build strategy has always been: Top tier motherboard with onboard sound and network, scrimp on HDD size and Optical drive,cheap case that I cut ventilation holes in to add fans, 2nd tier processor, minimum ram for the times, and monster graphics card. Overclock as much as possible. I can usually undercut builds I see on the internet by about $250 and still get the same performance. I usually start throwing ram into it after a year. View

I'd hack mine.
To get rid of that god awful OS. The PSP came so close to being portable electronic nirvana, it pains me to see it in it's current state. View

Every time I see a does Blu-ray matter article I'm
forced to link to this.....

http://hornymelon.com/?p=77

DD is the future but it's no where near ready for mainstream adoption. Streaming isn't the same thing as owning. You can't watch whatever, whenever with streaming. That's what makes owning so much better. For those nights when your home alone and can pull out your copy of Spiceworld and enjoy it without ridicule. View

Price of BD movies..........
Is why I haven't switched my DVDs over to Blu-ray and why I buy fewer movies. I'm not buying a DVD now. If Sony really wants Blu-ray to catch on they better do it before somebody puts out true 1080p upscaling TV...isn't Toshiba working on one? I think it acutally has a cell chip inside it. Can't remember though. View

1up top most useless site on the
net...oh wait that wasn't the title. I stopped going there When they did a really bad feature/price comparison between the ps3 and 360. Of course the 360 is cheaper when you leave out the wi-fi, HDD and HD- DVD add-on. View

N4G got a cash infusion
a couple months back. Guess they are using it. What's funny is I used to go to gamespot until I saw an N4G ad. Yeah the articles are not as good here but there's more to read. Gamespot sits static for days on end sometimes. Doh replied to the worng one...oh well. View

I've always thought rumble was kind of pointless.
It scared me playing resident evil once back in the day but soon got shut off due to the annoying factor. How does hand shaking enhance game play? The only way this could be fun is if you put the 2nd player controller down your pants while playing a fighting........YOU GUYS ARE SICK!!! View

Holy self promotion batman!
Isn't this the guy that over saw the dreamcast? Man that console was sick the second one was even......oh wait.

Didn't he over see the 360?

Man my 360 is as reliable as a....oh wait.

I consider this guys career extremely successful......for himself. The companies that have hired him though, have been left in disaster.

"he's running the brand into the ground!"

No. No. No. don't think that. The new guy has been running things for what 2-3 months? He hasn't had the opportunity to run it into the ground yet. All the problems with the xbox 360 that are coming to light were Moore's doing. He just jumped ship/booted out before the public was aware of them. View

I'm using an 8 year old computer
as I type this. My gaming rig had a heart attack about 6 months ago, thanks to a power spike and a PSU that did not function as advertised. I was just getting ready to build a new one with a couple of 9800gx2s. Now they are announcing 9900s? WTF. It's caused me to stop and think. Many cards from two generations ago still play games fine, aside from crysis, so what's the point of buying the newest wiz bang card? I think I'll just hold off until they put the GPU on the same die as the CPU, or ditch the GPU all together, or ditch the CPU, depending on who's hype you believe. View

GTA is such a big release it will do good
no matter when it is released. It will do great now and it will get a good bump in the fall. It's a system seller. View

I think a better way for EA to test the waters
is to monetize spore cast and enable users to make money off their content then take a chunk off the back end. View

It's no more wacko than
Kotaku.

But in all honestly the name comes from an actual fruit. And you can blame the choice on drunk grocery shopping and branding rule #2

If all the good content oriented names are taken, choose something brandable. View
