that was pretty funny. Doesn't the game pick the next piece based on how much difficulty it thinks your having with each piece? I think I read somewhere that if you move pieces around a lot before locking it in place the game thinks you are having trouble with it. So you can cheat by moving the line piece around a ton every time you get one and then you get them a lot more often. It seems to work for me.
@monkeyontherun4 What you mean like running SETI@Home on it?
Oh my god 2-4GB a month is what the average person uses? I use between 8-25GB a DAY according to my router logs and that is after calming it down a bit, I usually try to aim for under 10GB a day. My ISP must be mighty nice not to cap me or complain at all. They did complain at my old place once though because me and my roommate burned through 80GB in a day, it wasn't a big deal though they turned it right back on. That I admit was a bit excessive.
Chex Quest? You mean the Doom 2 mod?
@Shootingblue No way, Lifehacker does have some really good articles every once in awhile, but most of the time it is complete garbage. Very poorly written too. It's like the common sense blog for idiots now.

Vote Engadget! Vote Wikipedia! (Almost chose Google, considered Amazon for a bit too)
They don't usually do that. In fact the only cases I have heard of where this happened was where someone was playing a pirated steam game with steam open (duh) and apparently got caught. I guess the idea is if your stealing steam games they have no way of telling which ones are stolen and which ones you paid for so you just lose everything. I don't know if that is true or not though. Although I have seen crazy stuff that lets you download any game you want through steam without paying.
Wow that is extremely ugly, I disagree. Good effort and well put together though.
Surprisingly I found some good deals off of steam when I was expecting to buy most of my games on steam. I picked up L4D2 PC for 20 bucks+COD4 PC for 20 bucks and free shipping on both. No way was I going to pay 40+ dollars for COD4 when it has been out so long. I've played it a lot before I just finally decided to get a copy of my own and I didn't really like MW2. I almost picked up FC2 for 5 bucks but decided not too because it would have meant actually going to best buy which I despise.
@Paul Maddox/Others with similar complaints

You need to stop using shit quality discs. Taiyo Yuden is what you need. I usually get them from supermediastore.com (it's not my site I'm not advertising calm down)
True, maybe there will finally be a NFS game that doesn't suck hard now. The only good ones are the really old ones.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm looking for a solid state drive, around 32 to 64GB, for use in my web server. The drive will contain my web sites and the operating system, either Windows Server 2008 R2 or Ubuntu. Large storage is handled by a separate RAID array, so capacity is not an issue. Rather, I am looking for the fastest, longest-lasting, and most reliable drive under $150 that is suitable to my application. Any thoughts? Thanks!"
