Banned PSN player appeals court decision, sues Sony again for $180k

Oct 27th 2009 3:12PM (Joystiq)
I wish Sony would ban more people. My time is valuable, and nothing irks me more than when I want to relax with a game, and my fun is ruined by jerks like this.

It's definitely when the Metroid comes to help you at the end of Super Metroid.

Is it possible to get shot by Dick Cheney?

Absolutely not! It's his trademark. Should Mario shave his 'stache?

I'm going to have to say performing open-heart surgery while walking would be pretty impossible. Well, performing it successfully at least.

Square Enix: Game stories can surpass films

This is huge "Duh!" I mean, there is already a lot of scholarship about game narrative. I wrote my own Master's thesis on the subject.

Guinness pours out its Top 50 Games of All Time

Feb 26th 2009 2:15PM (Joystiq)
This list is really stupid, precisely because it's obviously bias and does not have any real process for how it was created. "Fun to play" is completely subjective. And it's pretty clear that it was written by people who never played anything older than a Nintendo game. When I think of "important" games, I think of things like Pac-man, which continues to draw players 27 years after it was created. Or how about Spacewar!, which outshines just about everything on this list in terms of "importance".

Wisconsin placing 5% tax on downloaded games, items

Feb 26th 2009 2:01PM (Joystiq)
For that matter, how can they even enforce this? They don't have jurisdiction to force the selling entities to implement a collection unless they have a presence in Wisconsin. So will this be like a use tax? If it is, are they going to hire 10,000 auditors to follow up with all the people that won't actually report it?

Wisconsin placing 5% tax on downloaded games, items

Yeah, they'll need the tax credit for development, because now they're going to have to re-write all the back-end purchasing software to ensure that Wisconsin residents pay tax and others don't. This is going to have a lot of problems.

Hirai says 360 lacks longevity, won't top PS3

Microsoft makes a console? Hmm, after more than a decade of working professionally in IT, I have lost all confidence in anything with their name on it. Does it need to be re-booted every 12 hours? Does it have memory holes?
