Rumor: Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer disables Xbox Live party chat {Joystiq}

You may not realize it, but you DO NOT play COD4/MW2 for the "realism." Is Modern Warfare more real than, say, Doom III? Yes. Is it "real?" Hell no.
You want to play a game that's even more "real" than COD4/MW2? Go play the original "Operation Flashpoint" or the old "Firearms" mod or even "Red Orchestra 1/2." Those gamers were "real," and suffered for it, because playing a "real" game is no fucking fun.

Report: Nintendo updating DSi with bigger screens this year {Joystiq}
Oct 26th 2009 7:17PM @Dr. Scientist:
If you like your phat and like to play GBA games, then buying a DSi for the software is, arguably, a bad idea.
Unless, of course, you think you'd enjoy using your DSi to download clocks and calculators. Oh, and card games you used to play on your Ti-83.

New 'gaymer' survey explores sexual identity, interest in games {Joystiq}
Oct 8th 2009 11:25AM No survey is perfect, but having created a fair amount of research surveys as an undergrad and grad student, there are some things I would have done differently.
For example, in question #29 "On average, how important are each of the following to you?" there is an option for "Homosexual Content," but no "Heterosexual Content" option. It's hard to interpret someone's answer to the "homosexual" option without a "heterosexual" option to compare it to. If homosexual content is "not important at all" to someone, it could be because that person hates homosexuals or it could be because they see sexual content in general as unimportant.

Oct 8th 2009 11:15AM I'm glad they defined "homosexual content" in the survey, because I don't want to see homosexual OR heterosexual sex in games. Mass Effect did it pretty tastefully, but I think that's unusual.
Capcom dates promised PSP UMD Legacy titles {Joystiq}
Oct 7th 2009 11:10PM Capcom has made things easy for me over the past few years; anything with its name associated with it is an instant "DO NOT FUCKING BUY." Thanks Capcom.
