You have the honor of being the first to make such a remark that I've heard/read. I'm personally not going to see it because I know I wouldn't like it. But that's the point, I don't go to movies just to see the new flick.

Which is why you didn't like it. It's a movie made for fans of Watchmen, which is utterly great to see. There is a pretty clear line from people I've seen in responses to it. Fans of Watchmen love it, those who have no clue why they watch movies don't.

Eh, you're really not going to find any better solutions in the 13.3" form factor. There are much better reasons to hate Apple.

That depends entirely on what you mean by "well." Given Blizzard's history of producing games on the less demanding side of the equation chances are you should expect settings at Low at the MacBook's 1280x800 resolution.

You suggest people aren't doing other things with their Wii? I would suggest that the Wii is "another thing" than playing games. Half the games sold are non-games!

It's in everyone's best interest that they win. PC gaming can die for all I care, if big content wins this the damage done would be far greater than an already poor gaming market getting worse.

The Backstreet Boys would have a sell out tour in hours if they announced a full line up one. Is it the same type of liking of the music? No, but most people who bought Beatles albums or Rolling Stones albums didn't buy them for deeper reasons either. In general few people really identify with...

That's a bit of an odd stance. I'd say album sales are the perfect measure of lasting impact of mainstream tastes. The only reason the bands in the original post are there is because they are the biggest sellers in each of their respective genres. History has always treated the victor well and...

Many TV shows are online these days for free. Hulu is a very profitable and marketable service that I wish more people would use instead straight up pirating them. However, Hulu doesn't offer a HD quality stream of the shows (max is 480p). I just don't see what is illegal about a...

The name could be a play on the activity of pirating, or it could be because the majority use of the site is pirating. The name, however, doesn't limit what you can do with their services. I think they set down to make a easy to use torrent tracking site with easy to use methods of searching the...

They could make music the exact same way they do now. They don't have to have the rights to a song to do what they do. An artist could lease their services and a portion of the album sales would go to the label. Not difficult and an artist wouldn't have to give up control of the music they created.

No, TPB's purpose is to provide a tracking service for bit torrent files. I understand the sentiment you two are coming from but the likely truth remains that if you don't take such a stance then you are jumping on a very bad ride that will simply give corporations more power to police the...

Uh, no Humus. The sole purpose of TPB is not to provide easy access to illegal content. Their sole purpose is to act as a tracker for torrents without discrimination. Your wording suggests as if they only tracker torrents that contain illegal content. The fact is they don't care what it...

Yes, but their is a established market for the game on PC already.

Considering the first Operation Flashpoint was a Bohemia product and ArmA really isn't that different (just improved), why would this be of any surprise? Codemasters of course is going to target the same crowd. If this sequel maintains anywhere near the level of realism found in the first and...
