Nothing composites can't fix.

Cool, but neither F@H or Home is enough to justify dropping all that loot for a PS3.

"We incorporated messages into an acoustic sound wave telling gamers to stop playing. The messages are told 10,000 to 20,000 times per second"

So stupid...words...escape rationality...

These guys are doing a great job at paddling with their hands and removing the water out of their boats with a fork...

How is it by cutting trees down eco friendly? Wouldn't it be a better idea to make the shell/materials out of recycled plastic?

@ rick, I'm sorry, but what phone software has not been reliable? Let me guess, a random stab an Windows Mobile? I assume that you have extensively used and compared this phone to others of similar nature...right...

It's gonna suck when you buy it and it doesn't boot up to include any RAM.

Hurray! I shall no longer have to fear peeing onto my walls ever again!

This is way too much of an ideal post rather then a realistic one. To summerize:

Idea 1: Key word, "casual", these games are made for past times, or projects, not meant to target or even penetrate the game market, after all who buys a 3000$ computer to play something on 'Yahoo!'? Only the companies hosting the game profit off of this.

Idea 2: What keeps developers afloat is a good game, not advertisement, this is rediculous and plain stupid. Neither gamers nor games were made within the pass 2 years when online-advertisement commenced, so there was no need back then, nor now.

Idea 3:If premium services became free because of advertisements in game, then microsoft would've cut even after spending millions to purchase an ad revenue creating company, point of wasting millions of dollars would be "_______________" (insert your answer there).

Idea 4:Realism isn't through me jumping off a helo while being attacked by 20 mexican soldiers overthrowing the gov't and then seeing a DODGE advertisement written in half ass spanish saying "its alive". (GRAW), or even me walking through some alleyway and then seeing some blazing hot chick with axe commercial on it, yeah...very real.

To sum it up: ads can be beneficial to companies recieving the money for putting the ads in game, not the end user. I'll change my mind about this when the game that costs 50-60$ to buy in the store costs 10$ because of "ads" offsetting costs.
