Imautobot: Maybe there really is something to be said about selling a game at a fair price.06/19/2013 - 8:35am

MechaTama31: Imautobot: I dunno. Ask my hundreds-strong Steam library, which I have played maybe 10-20% of. Those sales are just too good to pass up... >.>06/19/2013 - 7:38am

Imautobot: Bought 5 GOG games last night, now I wonder if I'll play them. Why is it so comforting to know we have it, and yet such a challenge to bring ourselves to play it?06/19/2013 - 7:28am

MechaTama31: CMiner: Another issue is that every camera/webcam combination is going to be pretty different, in terms of the software/hardware exploits available. A homogenous hardware/software combo like a console, in millions of homes, will be a much juicier target.06/18/2013 - 6:31pm

Re: GameTap Holiday Wishes...
hey they're just spreading the Christmas cheer I actually like seeing these.
Re: GameTap Holiday Wishes...
If there's no news happening, why don't you just make some stuff up and report it?
Re: GameTap Holiday Wishes...
It was a shock today when we found out that EA executives joined in a pile naked reenacting South Park Episode 118 'Goobacks'. The cause of these actions seem to be them trying to gain more attention as people are still pissed off at them for SecuROM. Local police quickly apprehended the executives and arrested them for public indecency, and can be imprisoned for up to 2 years.
In other news, Sony and Microsoft have went belly up, and are filing for bankruptcy. Rumors quickly started that SEGA is going to make a new console now that Nintendo is the only competitor.
Remaining employees at EA decided to try to help their image after their executives typical disgraceful acts, and made Spore and Madden 09 free to everyone online for download at EA's online store.
With the activity at EA, Ubisoft and Activision decided to compete with them by making Prince of Persia and Azada 2 free online, respectively. Problem is, hardly anyone knows what the hell Azada 2 is, and are wondering what the hell.
Meanwhile, 4 children went to the back of a Walmart in Maine today and broke a mirror to destroy the Walmart store, successfully I might add. This form of violence was said to be caused by GTA. Government appointed 'Experts' say they can prove GTA is the cause, though no logical human can even consider the fact from the bullshit foaming out of their mouths.
In Australia, the government allowed an R18 rating, then 5 minutes later abolished it. Gamers protested, and burned down government buildings. US 'experts' believe this was caused by GTA as well.
G4TV reports that these 'experts' are fucking morons, and will have more on this story on Monday in the Loop.
A violent killing happened in Germany, US 'experts' once again blame it on GTA. German police blame it on abusive and neglectful parents that were not part of their children's lives. When investigating the parents, they found illegal substances on them, and have been put in jail with their teen sons.
