"And I went to the University of Central Florida where a degree that gets you work just fine costs as much as half a semester at UC Berkley. After you get your first job, where you went to school no longer has any bearing on the rest of your career. That's $80,000 + books blown for something I got for $10,000 and still rolled right out of college into a $50k/year job and a huge ladder for potential.

The reason it costs that much is because UC Berkley wastes a TON of money on administration and worthless classes. With rising tuition costs, just how can they possibly justify a StarCraft class? They can't. That tells me that the ranking in your link is bogus because they don't even know how not to waste taxpayer and student money on bullshit projects."

Sounds like you're more bitter about getting rejected from Berkeley during the application process than anything, lol.

This class is not a waste of resources, at all. The only thing that's being used up are the time of the graduate students or upperclassmen teaching the course and the electricity used to power the computer lab. Can't people have some fun and experiment in a college setting? I mean, that's the whole point of an education, is to try new things and learn from your experiences.

Also, the new gamespot scoring system rounds up reviews to 0.5 increments. That's why GTA IV has a 10/10. If the old scoring system were in place, it would probably have a 9.6/10 or above. It's a tiny difference regardless, and 10/10 still cannot mean perfect - a game can never be perfect, it will always have a bug or two. Look at Ocarina of Time.

lmao @ all the people who think Rockstar "pulled strings" with the gamespot review. IT WAS A BUG!! This has happened plenty of times, they've posted 0.0 scores on games before the actual review came out. There's no such thing as game publishers paying reviewers off to give good reviews. They don't have to. Most people picking up GTAIV have never heard or read a review about it - they've just seen the commercial on television or are told about the game by their friend. So shut up with all your conspiracy theories, you're only fooling yourselves.

Besides, GTAIV is really worthy of a 10/10. It's an amazing game. I'm 8 hours in and I've enjoyed every second of the game more than any other game I've played in recent history.

Yep, and the candidates for the Democratic ticket are all all-star politicians and hold fantastically irrefutable views and solutions to America's problems. Especially John Edwards. lol.
