"If everyone in the world gave him the silent treatment, the insanity would eventually stop."

Thats not going to happen b/c there are politicians and news organizations like CNN dumb enough to actually listen and agree with the guy...plus not everything goes away if you ignore it.

You mean...lets hope LucasArts actually lets them finsih the game before it is released.

"Just don't post bad things about Obsidian on their forums."

Why is that? Are they the kind of people who scorn you if you have a different opinion then them?

@ L:

"And Sudoku, which i'd never played before i got the game, has just consumed me."

Same with me...in fact I had never even heard about the game until seeing a display for it at the store, Linens N Things.

I borrowed a copy from a friend and for the short time I had it, I couldn't put the game down. I can't wait for this to come out...I'm gonna have to have my parents try it out as well.

@ Martin Ultima:

That is a small isolated situation though...plus there are so many flavors of Linux it will confuse people. With Windows XP there are only 2 choices for them (Home and Pro) but Home is more then enough for the average user not doing complicated home networking. PLUS with Linux you don't have the software support like Windows (games,office productivity, desktop publishing, etc.)

Until Linux is somehow able to be as user friendly as Widnows with the broad software and hardware support, it will continue to be a niche OS. Plain and simple.

Wow...when will this guy get the hint that he is wasting his time?

I wonder if Mark2000 will stick his nose in here and do his political rants again...

@ VF:

They won't need to. In Japan when the game was still a WIP, they gave copies to Nintendo employees to take home and have their parents, friends and others who normally wouldn't buy a DS or play games.

The outcome? The Brain Training series has been selling like crazy among adults over there. I forsee something similar happening elsewhere in the states.

In regards to the Jaguar...if I remember correctly I think it actually used (2) 32-bit CPUs which means it isn't a "true" 64-bit system.

"Throw that in with my limited time for gaming, and possibility that my girlfriend will like playing this thing. Suits me just fine."

You hit it right on the money with that statement and this is something that all hardcore gamers in general are forgetting too. A lot of them (no offense to anyone) have no life and just play games and would rather developers focus on them instead of trying to draw in the "average joe."

OH!!!

I saw Star Wars Episode 3 there and MAN that is an ice theater. It is a tad on the pricey side but considering that there is no bad seat (even in the front row which is where I sat) I would def. go again.

Only problem is that I have to work (I work in Costa Mesa in Orange County) and you have to be there at noon for tickets. Oh well...I'll just buy the DVD when is FINALLY comes out in April.
