Humble Bundle 3 adds Atom Zombie Smasher

Aug 6th 2011 7:55AM (Joystiq)
You know what I like most about the average price being paid ?


Total payments: $1,668,275.58
Purchases #: 298,886
Average purchase: $5.58
Average Windows: $4.65
Average Mac: $7.38
Average Linux: $11.90

Us Linux users happen to be paying more per average than anyone else ... :)

Also the Linux slice of the pie seems to be slightly bigger than the Mac pie, so where is steam for Linux ?

when it was just 5 games, I was looking at the split between the devs / charity and paid a fair price, now I feel like I have slightly cheated them.

Hackers claim discovery of PS3 'private key,' enabling unauthorized code [Update]

Dec 29th 2010 11:15PM (Joystiq)
Sony are completely and utterly screwed, the funny thing is that I think they deserve this..

Removing otheros was guaranteed to piss off a whole lot of people, they did it anyway and low and behold the whole security is cracked wide open..

The guy talking at the end was a bit of a douche and probably contributed the least.

Considering the initial design was to allow otheros to run, the hypervisor was obviously designed for that purpose and not security, this was a given, so no real surprise.. They probably didn't use a random number for some other reason, maybe a government back door, not sure something political (company or state) probably rather than a failure..

Honestly though Sony deserved this, the moment they decided to pull a feature they initially promised is the moment this was guaranteed to happen. I said this would happen about a year ago everyone who had half a clue said this was going to happen low and behold it happens.


There is no recovery from this they have the Private keys its game over, nothing Sony can do now other than pray its not used for rampant piracy but its pretty much guaranteed to be used for that exact purpose.

only real positive to take from this is that the ps3 sales will be huge as everyone who buys a ps3 will know its easily crackable. The other thing that this guarantees is the ramp up of the ps4 production, if Sony were planning to delay the ps4, I doubt they are now.. I bet the PS4 will be released by the end of 2012 now.

@Raffi256 Last I checked Graphics cards are being used to run Super Computers and servers.. So whats the point in buying really expensive graphics cards to play games ? Yes thats how stupid and ridiculous your point was..

Take a good, long look at the first Uncharted 3 gameplay footage

@Anticrawl you know the worst thing about your comment (never mind the fact that its a load of bull), is that some people will actually read it and believe that some how the game is lacking or that it actually is as short as your making out. Uncharted 1 and 2 had me on the edge of my seat for the whole duration of play, Uncharted is one of the best games of this console generation, both of them have been absolutely awesome.

I have no idea how long my playthroughs lasted, I was too busy having fun playing the game, it certainly did span a couple of days solid..

Obviously to you quantity matters not quality, which is a shame. Probably the same reason you only "competitively" play mp on the 360, obviously quality doesn't matter to you at all..

Kung-Fu Live review: Kinect-like on the cheap

Playstation Eye Hacks you say ?

http://www.maximumpc.com/article/features/maximum_pc_builds_a_multitouch_surface_computer?page=0,2 -- The mother of all hacks a surface PC using a playstation eye...


In the UK, which happens to have the biggest Xbox360 market in Europe, play.com has its best selling Games as follows:

1. GT5
2. Just Dance 2..
...
28. Playstation Move motion Controller
29. Playstation Move Bundle
31. Playstation Move Nav Controller
34. Wii MotionPlus
35. Kinect Sports
36. Kinect

Yeah I can see how it was the 3rd best selling last week, I think you missed a zero there somewhere, 30th maybe ? Even the Nav controller outsold the Kinect last week, even Wii MotionPlus..

In the rest of Europe PS3 outsells the the 360 pretty much..
