commented on Avalanche Studios, Just Cause founder: Story-driven triple-A games make 'no sense' commercially anymore
What really killed the show was the writer's strike. (If memory serves it occurred during the final season.) I'm already sick of every service offering exclusive TV shows - if one were to subscribe to them all it'd cost a small fortune! I'll stick to watching free Crackle whilst my game downloads in the background on my PS3.
If every person got fired for being a jerk in their personal life the unemployment rate would be almost 100%. He made these comments not as a representative of Microsoft, but as an individual. Also, if he really was fired, this concerns me on a 1st amendment level.
Last year I wanted to check my local weather. I did a search for weather sites (oddly, it was the first time I'd needed to check the weather online & didn't know where to go). I clicked on one & my computer got a virus. Had to take it to Best Buy for an overhaul. Since then it runs ok, but not great. I have Windows 7 & Internet Explorer 9 yet some sites I visit say I cannont leave a comment because I need IE9. If I click on the icon for IE9 it says I already have it!!!! I've given up & am just happy I can visit most sites & check my email.
As I looked over my games collection to answer this question it hit me that tactical RPGs on consoles have pretty much gone the way of the dinosaur. How sad (maybe somebody here @ Alien Head can do a piece on why this has happened). Anyway, my answer is a three way tie: Saiyuki - Journey West & the two PS1 Vandal Hearts games (the PSN one, ironically one of the few new tactical RPGs on the current gen, was horrendous).
Jest all you want, but I'm a big fan of Howard's!! Hey, he managed to hook up with Lea Thompson (I'm still jealous)!! Plus I loved when the antagonist said, "I'm turning into something else"! I think that line gave James Cameron the idea to call his ore unobtainium!!!!!
commented on A look at the PS4's (prototype) controller
I REALLY do not want a dual screen experience. I can't see all that well, & the idea of switching glasses interests me not at all. I'm not getting bifocals & going cross-eyed just to play. If Sony & Microsoft do follow Nintendo's lead, I guess I won't be buying any of the new systems - even though I prefer physical software to digital, I guess the Steam Box might be my only next-gen choice if these rumors prove true. Bummer.

I have one to add - Yuri & Alice from the Shadow Hearts series.
Then how am I supposed to play when my cable/internet is down?! It's a terrible idea.
Thanks for replying! Glad to hear you'll be continuing to bring great & varied content! :) Alien head has risen from the ashes to carry on the good fight as gamezone!!
