maybe it seems like it in my own small worldview, considering the people I know.

For some reason this looks like an album cover for an alternative band. isn't that increasingly becoming the same thing?

i downloaded the beta, don't think I've ever used it.

these guys were okay.

I just realised the other what bugs me about the environments, especially the town. It looks like Guild Wars. Which was great... for Guild Wars, a game released in 2005.

paid off. also: preordered.

necro thread. Saw the Get Up Kids last night. Amazing. They were reaching way back into the vault, playing songs I hadn't heard in years, like off Four Minute Mile. Here's one of my favorite songs being performed: Only like the third video I've shot with my Bloggie Touch, I guess when switching hands I accidentally cupped the mic, only explanation I can come up with for the audio fade. Lots of bass in the club. I wanted to record Campfire Kansas but there were a lot of people doing that one, so I would have had a dozen arms in the way.

AT&T U-Verse has given everyone free access to the Japan News Channel during these difficult times, I find that to be very cool of them.

i'm a little confused here,are these codes as in codes the consumer enters in, a la project $10? or internal codes in the games information system that aren't able to be replicated with a pirated copy? Basically is Ethan correct in thinking this will basically disable the idea of used sales / rental / lending to a friend? That seems excessive, even moreso than Project $10.

oh yea, I didn't mean to make it sound like Sony was begging him to come aboard, apologies if I did. As for his stance, I can kind of see it; kind of not. Koush developes / codes / hacks android, having made the Clockworkmod Recovery and ROM Manager. I believe he's also done some work with CyanogenMod, as I found that tweet when Cyanogen RT'd it. The android device platform, especially for the CM Team, openness is quite important, especially when the manufacturer tries to lock it down for whatever reason. The console platform is slightly different, however. I agree with Geohot on his thoughts of "do you really own that console you bought," and why he does what he's doing. hacking, homebrew, and even cfw != piracy. But it's a short trip from one point to the next. Not to mention breaking the integrity of online gaming. Sony needs some control over the console to prevent modding and hacking of online play, as well as piracy. But that doesn't mean there should be some middle ground where homebrew, emulators, and custom can coexist on the platform with the manufacturer's intent. I really think Other OS was that middle ground, and Sony pulling that is really at the heart of the issue.

A noted android developer / hacker, koush, was contacted by someone from Sony expressing interest in having him apply for a Software Engineer spot in their R&D department. He's turned them down, in support of Geohot. http://yfrog.com/h23i3ctj

Sorry, yea, what I meant was my character on da:o has dlc tied to it, like his. I had no problem loading my character offline, and often forget/ not bother with logging into my ea account when playing da:o. He should be able to access his existing games and saved just fine.

yay! I'm getting a modular (unfortunately not full modular) power supply thanks to a newegg sale. I just wish they allowed for stacking codes, I have another $25 off code, would have loved to get it for less than 100. But the price I'm paying still isn't bad I think: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817182188 there's a 72 hour sale on newegg, check it out for some decent deals. http://promotions.newegg.com/NEemail/latest/index-landing.aspx

To everyone here in the affected reigions: stay safe, keep posting to let us know you are alive Best wishes to everyone in these troubling times. It's terrible; I know the feeling of mother nature taking away your home and possessions; what a dreadful experience. :(

ordered a new psu $105 and free shipping. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817182188 decent deal for a modular 1000w. So now I'll have a psu and a gpu for sale...

I really liked it; it reminded me of a decently done console diablo. the only thing I remember that I could do without was the death animation over and over and over mad that the end of the game ended on such a high note, was amped for a sequel that will probably never happen.

that's the overwhelming response I keep seeing too. Your character pretty much remains a mystery to even you throughout the game and really does little to create an emotional investment into his/her story.

chiming in here, during his ban, I think he could just disconnect from the internet / and pick up his da:o game from where he left off. hold on... yea, I can play my dragon age save file with no internet connection. He shouldn't really be locked out of games already purchased, just don't log in / disconnect from the internet, yes? Either way I think its ridiculous that you can't even register new games / dlc during a freaking forum ban, and would think its just bad for business, in that he won't be spending any money on EA games during a ban, or even after due to this experience. edit: oh well hello mr second page of replies.

I saw the movie in theatres. I loved it; thought it was great. Heard rumblings about a sequel... why not, right? left it wide open. Then we got the tv show, and I just never got interested in it. Still watch the movie on occasion though.

to be fair I've read p much from launch that LGA 1366 (the initial batch of core i7s / X58) was a limited run, I didn't really expect 1156 to be overshadowed so quickly, and hell, there's another socket type for Sandy Bridge that hasn't come out, and is largely unknown besides its designation number iirc, 2011. Right now I'm looking at getting a Sandy Bridge system sometime with a core i5 2500K, if I can scratch up the money.
