C'mon guys, you can think up names better than that. How about:

Nintendo Freedom (referring to the remote)
Nintendo 129600 (360x360 degrees ;)
Nintendo Auteur (re. the Broadway/Hollywood chips)
Nintendo Cameo (you're the star... sort of ;)
nBox
Mega Nintendo Entertainment System

Actually, now that I think about it, something ending or to do with "NES" might be quite likely if the name is changed from "Revolution", which I think is the final name.

#2: Because Macs can be dual-booted, which means they could theoretically become a decent gaming platform.

Additionally, I will be interested in seeing OSX on a PC.

... and Australia gets their Xbox360s released tomorrow. So much for a "Global" release. We're not even the last.

Is delamination on dual-layered discs also my fault? What about disc warping from unseasonably warm weather? Should I store my discs in a coolroom 24/7?

We're always told that buying a game is buying a *license* to play that game, not an actual copy of the game. But when the media on which the files are stored to access the game is damaged, why should we have to buy another license?

Maybe game companies should allow us to send in scratched discs and for a small fee have them replaced; I believe some do (or did), but it's never been widely publicised.

In the meantime, I'll continue to make backups of my legitimately purchased games, thank you very much.

I would appreciate Joystiq not putting semi-NSFW images on the news items in the future.

Why not just post directly to MetaCritic?

Or even Rotten Tomatoes?

They do the same job.
