It's a repost, yes. But cutting back on the professional product means they'll be cutting back on the high end customer one too. They're usually very similar. View

Meh.
For one quick moment the critical consensus (which I disagreed with) placed Goldeneye on top of the genre.

Even then, it only held the crown for one year, before Half-Life rewrote everything. View

Only he was right about Fermi "being too big, too hot, and too late".

Anyone who believed that nVidia's lies that Fermi was going to out this year is an idiot. They've known all along that it wasn't ready, but constantly spew out PR to try and introduce doubt into those who would want DX11 now.

It makes it hard to have any sympathy for nVidia, when it's clear that ATI have a product - and they don't. View

Re: JoySticksFTW
Shoe took EGM in the right direction. It got rid of multi-reviews, which were pointless in the age of Metacritic, moved their focus to features, and hired some decent designers.

I didn't know what the hostility to EGM was from some of those here, given that even at it's close, it had stable circulation figures.

But then I saw a few posts referencing the PS3 cover. Yep, it was all down to that single cover, what petty vindictive sh1ts.

Let's ignore that it was actually a better magazine with better content. And concentrate on that one cover you didn't like because it made fun of your favourite little console. "That later EGM lost their integrity" - Shut up, you didn't even read it. View

Re: mint royale
Reading Pennywise's comment, I really don't think he's familiar with EA's output this generation, at all.

Sony have been lucky that EA bet on them, they've certainly had more support from them then they deserved.

This is old news by the way, EA's been saying this for way over a year.

Should have just released it on Steam
Saves you doing the work.

And you get to advertise to all those football fans who use Steam for Football Manager. View

Sham Shui Po was awesome back in the day, the only reason being the massive computer market there.

Stalls and stalls and stalls just selling pirated product, brazenly in stores. Back in the pre-broadband era, this was a must visit destination for me every time I was in Hong Kong. View

Re: DChalfont
So even though Charlie is clearly right about this and broke the story, you're going to dismiss it still? Like he was right about nVidia's fake Fermi? And the masses of broken nVidia mobile chips?

The Larrabee is not coming to consumers, as confirmed by Intel. I don't think this has surprised anyone. View

I had just logged in to post that NowGamer piece, based on a 2007 GamesTM article.

I don't buy this new piece. View

Submit a near-blank story.

Edit it in your user space.

Submit from your user space.

Requires a bit of lateral thinking :)

I did this a few hours ago with the Steam sales story - I'm surprised no one picked up on it then, and that it's been broken so long. View

"The cell is too expensive and powerful to be that mass market"

I'm just going to join in with chalfont in calling you an idiot. If your statement were true, Sony wouldn't be using it in their machine.

It has not been pushing the industry more than any other development. The future is clearly symmetrical multi processing, coupled with a GPU. The CPU is staying SMP, it's the GPU that's evolving to take onboard GPGPU functions, such as OpenCL and Intel's Larrabee project.

I hate it that people think that just because an architecture is more obtuse to program for (a disability), it makes the thing better. View

You're suggesting that supermarkets don't cut prices? Stop digging.

Modern Warfare 2 was sold by the super markets from launch at £26. Is that struggling at retail too? View

Whereas Valve would need to make an investment to begin PS3 development, the retailer just needs to say yes - at absolutely no cost or risk.

Valve would rather invest in getting Steam out there such as the latest Alienware deal.

The retailers are only boycotting Steam games, because they feel they can't compete otherwise. Like as soon as one customer goes Steam, they're never going to go back.

It's obviously true. View

The co-ordinates - 59.935903, 30.321429
Are in St. Petersburg.

The nearest point of interest seems to be the Stroganov Palace and the Beloselsky-Belozersky Palace.

The marker could possibly be directly opposite the two.

Re: raztad
"However I disagree that the USA AIR FORCE is just trying to save some bucks. LOL. This is a powerful organization which happen to have HUGE budgets for this kind of stuff."

I mentioned the price/performance ratio of the PS3, price/performance is two words - they're worried about both.

The USAF might have big budgets, but they're getting squeezed and they're getting slashed. The cancellation of the Raptors shows you that.

You mentioned that the Cell is more akin to a GPU, well if price were not an issue - they'd get themselves the latest ATI 5x00s or nVidia Fermis. Hell, if price weren't the issue - they'd have just bought IBM cell blades! View
