The custom map fy_buzzkill for Counter-Strike. Both the original ones and the several Source-incarnations. Pure blizz.
Wasn't this "revealed" at the Smash Bros. Dojo-website months (read: eons) ago?
Really, what more can they do after The Sims 2? It's pretty much "The Sims"-formula perfected.

Making a nicer graphics engine will be almost useless, how many casual gamers run powerhouses of computers, anyway?

The girls I know who play The Sims 2, usually play them on their laptops, leading to severely low framerates (although they don't really seem to care..)
It's a great update, I actually want to go into the galleries now, in contrast to before, where I tried to avoid it unless it was something very special. Good job!

But there is one issue that annoys me.I prefer to browse in hi res. It works fine if I change the pictures using the arrows, but when i click the picture itself to change, it switches to low res-mode.

Will there perhaps be a fix for this?
Whilst use of these kind of batteries in everyday-devices is pretty much useless, why can't this be useful in some other ways? Seeing as it could last so long, could it be used as an energy source in emergencies or other things?
I dont' get the idea of avoiding theft, if I was a thief going through a dirty, old, run-down african school, where usually the most vaulable things is the 30 year old chairs, and I saw a green flashy thing (the green color makes it really recognizable in the dark), I wouldn't have hesitated to steal it.

Also, while the laptop looks great when placed in a dust-free environment, such as a glass-monter or design-pictures, it doesn't when it is in daily use in an african outdoor-environment.

I once bought a hard-plastic-folder in a light blue transparent color to use at school, it looked great the first two weeks, but then it started to decay, get scratches and stains and all the stuff things get when they're moved around a lot. Due to the light-blue color, everything dirty around it got really obvious, and the folder turned from nice and fresh to disgusting.

I didn't want to make the same mistake next semester, so I bought a black folder. I treated it the very same way, and it probably became just as scratchy and stained, but the difference was that the black color didn't make it _look_ as disgusting as the light-blue color did...

I'm not buying this until they change that horrible green color. 3rd world children or not, no-one deserves to have a computer that sports such a color...
Hmm, how are they going to hold such a law? It seems impossible and unnecessary with such a law..
Uh, I sort of like the way they give out Halo 3-info. It makes the fan(boy)s stop dreaming of things that will never happen, and if you're not interested in reading them long forum posts, then don't.

I love how Blizzard gave away 30 minutes of the game in a real demonstration, and not some teaser-shit with the logo being shown with some random dramatic music. Hopefully they'll keep this up - with maybe a few more demos, and so forth.

Go internet marketing!
Hahaha, isn't this the same guy that just a while ago said that "Ninja Gaiden" would be so incredibly awesome that other developers in the same genre would just give up on making more games?

And now he's bashing the wimps that say PS3 is hard to make games for. This man is pretty hardcore. I believe he quite possibly could become my hero.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm looking for a pair of quality headphones that aren't seemingly made of glass. I'm an avid BMXer which causes me to frequently bash on any type of technology that joins me for my daily riding. I've been through the higher quality headsets in the Skullcandy line as these are supposed to be built for "abuse," which is laughable. I cant wear earbuds or canal buds, as my large ears seem to have a repelling property upon anything that sits in them. Wired or Bluetooth doesn't really matter, but I need something that can hold up to taking a few hits every now and again. I'm trying to keep 'em under $150. Thanks!"
