Xbox 360 DLC has brought in $240 million

Yea... the console I bought when Halo 3 came out RROD'd last month. We'll see how this one handles the same kind of zero abuse I gave my first one.

There is no reason you need to sign contracts for cell phones. Seriously, so much garbage attached to those. Alternatives exist!

Dammnit, why does Firefox support blinking text?

Tales of Vesperia demo available on NA Xbox marketplace

Don't worry, Wii is getting it's direct sequel to the the Gamecube's Tales of Symphonia. So, actually, Wii60 owners get access to both new Tales games.

I for one am super excited. ToS for the Gamecube was my favorite game, only beat by the likes of Chrono Trigger.

Let's talk about those Hummingbird ads ...

Right, because clearly there's no possible way I could be saying this out of experience, after using it for a year.

Using an IP address or some junk for a DNS name is not practical for maintenance or tracking. The only ad servers that use that are the ones I might see if I follow a link in a spam email or something.

Regardless, the only ads I do see now are the text ads by google. It's a beautiful thing.

I have a pretty kick ass HOSTS file. That and browser.xul.error_pages.enabled = false as a user set definition in Firefox's about:config means I never have an ad to complain about on your site, or anywhere else.

But I will say that ads like that are why I block them all, and I will make a point of avoiding HP when I can, in the future.

Lawl. It would be the best thing ever if that was a real ad. I mean, really. Its so over the top.

What the? Did IGN sneak onto my Okami boxart?

That makes a lot of sense, actually. I forgot about that whole thing.

What the? Did IGN sneak onto my Okami boxart?

Orion... there is a number of images that IGN receives from game companies that are high resolution. Its very very very easy to take that high resolution image, go from 72 to 300 DPI and place it onto a box in InDesign or QuarkXpress. This is pretty much what they did. Now, why they decided to take their own art from IGN, I don't know... maybe they misplaced the original file? It's happened to me at work... But they could have at least cloned out the watermark.
