I think they were going to go with black for awhile. I bet you anything that they didn't want it to get confused with the PS2 and its color scheme though. Plus white had that casual person stigma to it because of the macbooks and iMacs.
Hooray!!!!!! An added included feature that the controller should have already had in the first place! "The Wiimote: For reals this time" or "Wiimote: Non-Snake Oil Version" should be the name of the new controllers.
I was looking at the source of this and it looks like "From the Gym" is his valediction, or closing.
I don't know Japenese, but it does look like he's merely saying he posted this From the Gym.
The rest of it just seems to be very poetic, and probably a lot is lost in translation. Kinda just sounds like he's saying Peace is up to people, not leaders.
I must add, however, that the Illuminati is a real organization. It can be found in history books. The notion that they are anything "mysterious" or a hair brained "theory" is nonsense, mostly promoted by Hollywood movies.
That's how bad the programming is. People can't tell their left hand from their right even when the documented evidence is presented to them.
You're tinfoil comments are ridiculous. Just a poor attempt to distract from the information I'm actually presenting. Tell me? Did you even watch the Commander Cobra footage or the Predictive Programming video? I thought those videos made the argument pretty damn obvious.
Predictive Programming is a fact of life. It's been happening for centuries. It's not a "conspiracy theory". What was the main line up before the War? All war movies? What's the major line up now? All pandemic and global natural disaster movies. But fine, keep your head in the sand and think it's a coincidence. You'd have to be an idiot that knows nothing of history to think that the government isn't using the media to promote their agendas.
The cases of death you mention seem to only glorify the soldiers involved. COD, in my view, plays this weird balancing act where it pretends to be anti-war, but when you pick apart the actual message at the end of the day, it really only glorifies the heightened drama that war brings. The anti-war quotes, during the death sequences, just parrot "war is awful" to you over and over before re-spawning you to blast a few more heads. The notion that there's any solid anti-war material is nonsense. The writing in these games is average at best anyway.
Besides the entire game makes "terrorists" appear as much more of a threat than than they actually are. This is where the propaganda is most blatant, in my view. Al Qaeda, for example, is funded by the CIA. It's never really addressed in the Modern Warfare series. So the very fact that the game makes you believe in a reality where terrorists are a serious threat is promoting a nonsense premise in the first place. Besides, like I said, it romanticizes American soldiers dieing in a war they never should have enlisted for in the first place, just on the basis that 9/11 was a false flag operation.
I commented on Joystiq because the new trailer is absolutely blantant predictive programming. But if you want to continue this debate, put it in the comments section of my blog on the article. I don't want to overrun Joystiq's comment section with a tangent topic that they might not want.

Hope Joystiq doesn't mind me linking to it, since it pertains to the topic. I credited you guys for making me aware of it anyway. Peace!
