Hi everyone, as a colorblind person, if you're curious what your game looks like to us... go to www.vischeck.com ... They have a handy converter that will take any image you want (or a website) and show you how it looks to a colorblind person. It isn't 100% for every person, but it does hit the main 3 types of colorblindness.
I've been gaming with colorblindness my entire life, and I must say, this is the first time anyone has written anything about it that I've seen. It is EXTREMELY irritating that every single game ever made uses red and green to differentiate teams... not to mention color-based puzzle games being nearly impossible. Thanks for this post, joystiq.
For those interested, the prices on new AND used s2000s are in the *dirt* right now. you can get invoice or less on new ones with little haggling, and the 00-03 models (with low mileage and good shape) can easily be had in the 10k-15k range. As a bonus, the engine will run you 200k miles with 0 complaints.
Love my '03... and I don't think I'll ever get rid of it. As a side note, I'm very surprised by the editor's complaints about heel-toe - first time I've heard that. I have around a size 10.5 and I can heel toe or roll the ball of my foot without issue.
One of the local bars I frequent has it set up near the dart boards... they haven't broken more than I think one guitar. However, they don't do an organized 'rock band night'... it just sits waiting for whoever wants to use it.

Magic: Duels of the Planeswalkers on PS3, PC in 2010, XBLA getting more content
Nov 9th 2009 2:40PM (Joystiq)I unlocked the first two decks and thought oh, ok, I bet after I get a few I can start combining and making my own. ... Nope.
Oh I unlock cards. Cool. I'll just take out some of the crap I started with ... Nope.
I'm not bothering with expansion content if the deck building is that lame. The *gameplay* on xboxlive is great, fwiw.
