Studio Releases New 'Dilemma' Trailer In Response to Uproar

Oct 11th 2010 1:10AM (PopEater)
Was thinking the same thing Sally. I bet they didn't re-cut the film and take out the whole scene in the conference room.

The problem is it's not really a joke. Why not just call the cars gay. I mean, some cars just give off that vibe. Like the Honda DelSol. Never seen a straight man drive a DelSol. Why use a pointlessly offensive redefinition when the real definition is funny.

No More 'Dilemma': Universal to Pull 'Gay' Trailer

Oct 11th 2010 12:50AM (PopEater)
I don't understand Vince Vaughn's secondary definition of the word "gay".

It would have been better to straight-up stereotype gays by saying the cars are "gay" because that's who drives them. And DelSols. And Miatas.

GC 2008: Revised 360 controller is 'limited edition,' 'promotional item'

Sep 20th 2008 10:37AM (Joystiq)
The problem is not the circle. The problem is the pad stands on an inch long stalk. Pressure can quickly shift from one contact to another at the base, ruining your high scores. The best fix would be to add a separate PCB platform inside the controller just for the Dpad, raised so the contacts sit just under your thumb, with a spring under the pad so it feels more tactile. To be blunt this is an exceedingly stupid oversight when Dpads should be perfect by now.

Xbox 360 gets avatar system, new dashboard

Aug 20th 2008 4:52PM (Joystiq)
Seriously I can make any design I want for my XMB and load it with a USB pendrive, even explicit icons and wallpaper, because it's my console that I look at everyday, it doesn't belong to Sony anymore! And neither should my Xbox feel like it's on loan from Microsoft.

Xbox 360 gets avatar system, new dashboard

Aug 20th 2008 4:39PM (Joystiq)
With this new dashboard there are only two directions so it'll be easier to navigate like XMB. Hopefully they include dynamic wallpapers like PS3 too. I'm looking forward to the changes.

However if they continue charging for tiny things that are not only free on PS3 but are open to personal uploads Halo will lose start losing more and more attention. There are plenty of games on PS3 now for Microsoft to continue being rich jerks who beg for change.

MTV Games finds Konami's Rock Band lawsuit 'surprising'

All I have to say is I am pissed no one has made a real guitar game yet. How hard can it be to connect a guitar tuner to a console?

Soul Calibur IV demo coming 'down the road'

Aug 5th 2008 4:21PM (Joystiq)
I don't mind the delayed release of a demo. I think it will increase their impulse buyer sales and maybe give the devs a tiny, little, impossibly small amount of extra polishing time before retail release if they don't have to do a demo.

I'm not buying the game until I try it though. I've been disappointed by too many impulse buys and I don't have the money to throw down 60 bucks then trade it in for 30. I really want a next-gen KoF anyway.

360 Dashboard 2.0 mock-up, is Microsoft listening?

The Marketplace tab has to include a movie store too.

I'm glad to see tabbed browsing by criteria. An even deeper selection criteria menu would be greatly appreciated with the size of the library ever-increasing.

The left panel could be minimized while in the store to free up more browsing space. If they'd economize the adspace too.

I thought PSN Store was poorly laid out until I got a 360 and was surprised by how confusing the Marketplace works. While I'm on the subject why are they called Microsoft Points if they work exactly like dollars? Shouldn't you be able to earn points?

You decide the cover art for latest Spider-Man game

Jul 1st 2008 7:51PM (Joystiq Xbox)
Judging by the fact that it's a Spiderman game and is probably as bad as most comic book knock-off games it doesn't deserve good cover art. With that said I'd like to vote for both of them.
