wow... all of you in the HD-DVD camp (and to some extent Blu-ray camp) forget one thing...

despite Paramount and Dreamsworks supposed drop of Blu-Ray... Steven Spielberg (you know who that is, right?) has his own arrangement, he is NOT limited to either HD-DVD or Blu-Ray.

more specifically this...

Levy further clarified the Paramount/DreamWorks press release, saying that "...his movies, like 'Saving Private Ryan' and 'War of the Worlds,' are not included in that deal. They are not exclusive to HD DVD, nor [are they] planned for that format at this time.'"

to be fair, only one of his movies has been released on "Hi-Def" so far, that movie being 'Close Encounters of the Third Kind.'

apparently, this pic is real.

i just got a second psp recently... and only just put the two side by side... and my old one has a blueish tint like the right side...

i don't pay THAT much attention to sharpness, as far as i'm concerned... both look fine.

oops... made a boo boo

that second paragraph should contain a description...

*turn head to look left*... *image on screen moves left*... *turn head to look right to see image on screen*... *the image moves to the right*...

and that if you move your head to move the targetting, you have to move your head back to see, but that would cause the targetting to move again... which would counter what you were trying to do.

to SoB...

what you said makes SOOO much sense. since there's no point in an accelerometer when looking at a stationary screen....

"oooh, what's on the left"... ... ... ... ...

so then, the only two ways for the accelerometer to work... the entire screen moves WITH you (ie. mini-LCD on the glasses)... or you have a giant wrap around screen, and the cursor moves with your aim... kinda like the helmet fight pilots wear, i think the F-18 Superhornet, but i know the Apache helicopter has it... even if what they're controlling are the aim of real weapons.

"I love my Xbox 360 and I also love custom backgrounds. I don't love paying for them though."

interesting... are you saying you can't put a custom background for free? i have a custom background on my 360... in fact... it's the same one i put on my PSP.

Vagrant Story.

there is a problem if you like to put your consoles neatly tucked away in some cabinet... currently i have a PS2, PSOne and XBox sitting in a cabinet plugged into a "switcher" of sorts... but the switcher has front accessible buttons (like it's another console)... this on the other hand would be buried in the back of my cabinet and quite inaccessible.

if you don't put them in a cabinet, then it's all rather moot.

no offense to them... but something about those chicks makes me think... they hired some chicks to REPLACE the actual "female gamer"... not one of them looks like a plain "nerd/geek"... and that being being... no offense to any female gamers.

Gorilla was AWESOME!!! once in a while you'd hear me cursing the sun (the in-game sun) as one of my bananas disappear after going through the sun! other times, i'd be bored, and dig a straight path through any buildings.

i also loved Scorched Earth... so of course, i love Worms too.

but i don't like Gunbound much...

something along the lines of what Jimbo said... AI programming doesn't take up GBs of space.

firstly, not every object needs AI scripting.

secondly, characters that do need scripts can share scripts for some actions.

thirdly, there are only so many actions a character can take. example: AI getting shot at... it can duck, roll, run, stand still (ppl do that when in shock), and on the opposite of standing still, call for back up... but does it need to make pot roast? okay, a bit extreme...

considering the sheer size of a Blu-ray disc... 20 GB of level/extra data doesn't mean they skimped on AI anyway.

rather if they SAID they devoted some small % of their EFFORT... that might be more inidicatve of the "quality" of the AI.
