64K signature petition delays German govt's game-banning bill

Jul 28th 2009 4:35AM (Joystiq)
It is indeed called Bundestag, the Rreichstag is merely the name of the building. So: The Bundestag (federal parliament) is located in the old Reichstag (imperial parliament) building which kept the old name.
The institution is called Bundestag, the building is called reichstag.

Aso, what 26 years have been banned? Last time I checked, the Nazis only ruled for 12 years (1933-1945), so what are you guys referring to? Besides it being bullshit, off course. Swastikas and nazis are banned for being anti-constitutional, but not any information about them.

Law of the Game on Joystiq: The evolution of Pub Games

Question is: What is gambling according to U.S. laws? Would 1 vs 100 be considered gambling if you can win money in it (which is what Microsoft and Endemol plan to do for the 360's fall update)?

See symbiote Wolverine in Spider-Man: Web of Shadows

Actually, they are a hive-mind. There was a cross-over featuring Spidey, his clone (Ben Reilly), Venom and Carnage that was about an invasion of the symbiotes. They were a telepatic hive-mind with Venom and the earth-born symbiotes excluded from the hive-mind due to Venom being in exile, passing that inability to link up on to his terran offspring.

Damn, I'm a friggin geek.

Blood on the Sand: the Burnout of shooters

Jun 15th 2008 3:11AM (Joystiq Xbox)
Thing is, my definition of an RPG would include an epic storyline. Thus, MMOs are MMOs, not RPGs since MMOs hardly have any in-game story at all. Diablo has a very simplistic one (just like other Roguelikes) that is miles away from that of titles like Oblivion, Mass Effect or even some modern RTS.
Diablo takes the RPG formula and simplifies it to a point where it hardly is an RPG anymore.

Blood on the Sand: the Burnout of shooters

Jun 14th 2008 6:29AM (Joystiq Xbox)
I'm sorry but while I love Diablo and Diablo II: When did those become RPGs? Not everything they put in the middle ages or some kind of fantasy world automatically turns into an RPG. Just put Diablo and Final Fantasy side to side and tell me it's the same genre.

PS3 Poll Police: Voice your opinion on the GameTrailers debacle

May 13th 2008 8:42AM (Joystiq Playstation)
Would be great to get a video where one could actually see anything. Dunno if the 360 has R1, R2, L1 and L2, but it definately has a blue X and a green A (not triangle, but it's hard to tell the difference).

Microsoft hires former Nintendo exec to expand Euro footprint

Mar 20th 2008 4:26PM (Joystiq)
That guy previously managed PR for Nintendo of Europe and i-Play?
Can we consider that suicide on Micorosoft's part?

PS: The Wii came years after Gosen, Gosen left in the GameCube era. Even if, Wii is a success despite Nintendo's efforts, not because of them in europe imho.
