Okay people, now's your chance to tell them what you think. www.ea.com/news/the-origin-conversation my post for the record: "I do like the ability to download games that I've purchased through other distribution sites and overall the program works rather smoothly.I do not like the privacy policy, the integration with Battlefield 3 is horribly obtuse and obstructive and only through the brilliance of BF3 do I suffer through the quagmire of the Battlelog and origin integration. I do not purchase anything through origin directly and I fully intend to uninstall origin the second I'm done playing Battlefield 3."

Apple: It just works* *so long as Apple gets a cut

I fully favor getting rid of the filibuster. I think it's an unintended procedural exploit.

Oh I was just saying technically he's not a war criminal.

His charges were dismissed though... so that makes it okay... You've gotta love the ACLU.

Except that Republicans have not had control of the senate since 2007 and democrats controlled the house from 2007 to 2011 so it's been democratic legislature at the helm. Your argument is completely false.

http://www.politico....ter-122272.html Is it common to make "composite" characters in autobiographies? Also, How many years of failing to meet economic predictions do we have to endure before we can declare Obama's economic policies a total failure? So far he's batting 0-4. http://www.forbes.com/sites/abrambrown/2012/05/02/u-s-added-only-119000-new-jobs-in-april-stocks-double-their-losses/

It's funny because I have had a WoW itch ever since I escaped years ago. I didn't realize that I didn't really want to get back and play WoW but I really just wanted an offline WoW with a good story and Xenoblade really seems like it is just that.

Well, the solution to your problem is creating jobs. Law and Engineering degrees are actually pretty good about paying back so I'm sure you're going to be just fine assuming you can find a job. Now how you actually create jobs is a whole different issue but taxing the rich won't do it.

Nobody forces people to take out school loans though and taking out a school loan for a degree which won't really ever pay for itself just seems like bad money management to me. The college tuition rates are rather high but I see it as a similar problem to health care where government intervention has separated supply from demand and as such costs are spiraling out of control. Not everyone should go to college. Edit: Also, it's not simple hypocrisy if people are complaining about not having money while they have tons of money. That's just called lying.

Yeah, I just don't think randy is on the rise here, like Ethan said, everyone says horny.

It's about time they did this. XBL has done this for a while where I can buy a game at work and it'll be downloaded by the time I get home.

Randy is a pretty common name in Texas so people don't usually use it for the sexual connotation.

I am a little excited about near future but I was actually hoping for a not near future COD in the style of BF2142. Edit: Dang P4 beat me to it ^

Real Conservatives are not against government regulation entirely just overregulation. Saying that conservatives want complete free market capitalism is once again: ignorance. Really? all defense spending is fear? Really? National Security is fear? I'm so confused Again, nobody is anti-science. You're preying on ignorant people by trying to say that conservatives are anti science for not believing bad science. Anywho, you can pretend like the Republicans are evil because they sell with "fear and ignorance" but you're kidding yourself if you think that's a Republican thing. It's a politician thing. Also, this is interesting. http://dailycaller.com/2011/11/02/nyc-arrest-records-many-occupy-wall-street-protesters-live-in-luxury/ for the TL;DR crowd. "Among addresses for which information is available, single-family homes listed on those police intake forms have a median value of $305,000 — a far higher number than the $185,400 median value of owner-occupied housing units in the United States." So yeah, basically those people complaining about the rich one percent are mostly above average income to begin with.

Hmm, ignorance and fear? Global warming: fear Keynesian economics: ignorance Obamacare: based in ignorance sold by fear

Good now we can bring back the "in which we argue eternally" description of the piracy thread.

Well, in Gamestop's defense the game may never have seen a release here if it weren't for them. Probably works two fold, they get to sell it and will sell a lot of copies at their stores for lack of competition but it probably wouldn't have sold well enough to warrant a mass release. I believe it's only sold 250k copies right now.

Yeah, Gamestop got the exclusive on it so they're the only ones besides NOA who sell it. That's the reason I went ahead and paid full price for it.

I was pretty shocked at just how much tessellation destroyed the performance on my 6950 and it wasn't until that article came out that it made sense. Crazy stupid how they did the DX11 on Crysis 2.

Oooooooooohhhhhh.... I get it finally. So the point is that you can get a full $60 for a game at retail launch from a large chunk of people. Then if you release it again on digital later for full $60 you can get another chunk of people to buy it. I'm not sure why that works but I can see MS wanting to milk it twice at full ERP.

I think I read about it in EGM at the time. I honestly can't quite remember. I mean, there was the internet back then though. I remember waiting for hours for videos of Perfect Dark to load at IGN on my 56k dial up.

Yeah, they got sued. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mario_Party_%28video_game%29#Lawsuit

It used to be so easy in Pokemon, not anymore.
