Man, was thinking the same thing. Every video I see, I think, "I hope there isn't rain when the stig does the hot lap". I don't know if there has ever been a car that either the review or the hot lap didn't have rain.

Look at the pic, do you see impacted dirt? I see dirt placed on a camera. I see no abrasions on the plastic.

I would not be surprised that a camera could still function after a fall like this into soft soil, but this screams of fake to me.

@LeJay "Anyone for a 128GB iPod touch?" Can we get this post back on the topic of the original post? The fact of the matter is, the quote above is the most interesting thing. This means the end of mechanical disks in iPods, period. We all knew it'd come, apparently next year will be the year.
Really? Just a bunch of whiny bit*hes? No comments on how lame it is that Gamestop obviously threw their weight around, or paid/gave NCSoft a bigger cut so they would be the ones to get the black dye? Black dye > all in just about every MMO I've ever played.
It's really not an interesting question, it's simple. Persistence and progression. I say progression as opposed to levels, as you could have a system that allows for no levels with some sort of gear progression. It doesn't mean you can't have a game with MMO aspects, but those two things are the core of what we have come to know of as MMORPGs.

I was really excited about Home, have they done anything with it though? It seems to have all but died in momentum. It just feels like something to launch while on your PS3, but a reason to turn on your PS3, and it takes a long time to launch. I know I will get downvoted, but the PS3 doesn't have that "get right into it" feel the 360 and Xbox Live does. You can form a party from the dashboard, and then figure out what you want to play, within seconds. The PS3 is just a huge dissapointment for me. I loved LBP, and I am looking forward to snagging Uncharted 2 soon (too many other PC and 360 games right now), but for the most part I got my PS3 for GT5...and guess what STILL isn't out yet. Polyphony is going the way of Sony vs Microsoft. I think they think they can get away with doing whatever the heck they want, because of who they are. Guess what, Forza 3 is fantastic, GT5 isn't the system seller of the magnitude it once was.

Ok, got off on a tangent, but my point is, Home is a portal..on a system that isn't very popular and is not conducive to community interaction. I understand it tries to create that, but it sure feels like it fails at it. I thought Home was going to be the PS3s Xbox Live Dashboard, and it has not thus far achieved that.
lol, not far off. This was posted 45mins ago, so only a little over an hour left at the point of me posting this.

lol, downvote me, but I actually have a clue about what I am talking about. I have 3 40s, two of which are RR50+, one who is RR60+. The game could have been great, but like others have said, they totally screwed it up by not addressing issues. I could list 100 bullet points of bugs that are STILL in the game. I've never seen a company care less about bugs/exploits than Mythic.

As far as comments about their next game, I seriously doubt you see another Mythic MMO.

As for my original comment, there should be 1 out of the 10 people that has a Mac:

I'm sure the 10 people still playing WAR are excited about this.
Nobody who owns a computer that will play this couldn't afford $1. They lose money on credit transaction, bandwidth, etc at one penny, so congrats on being worse than pirates.

There is being thrifty, and then being a cheap a**/thief.

Basically take the one penny people and you have the statistic for percentage of gaming population that are scumbags.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"For a long time I have been searching for a portable device where I can store all of my CDs in MP3 format and stream the songs wirelessly to my HiFi system. The portable device must I've tried FM transmitters, they all suck. I don't want a docking station. Any help? Thanks!" have a display so that I easily can scroll through the playlists (I don't want to use a TV or monitor). I suppose that there must also be a second device that is connected to the HiFi system that would receive the wireless streams from the portable device.
