If M$ thinks they will get away with banning used games on their next system, they are about as dumb as a box of rocks.
Between this and the current online pass scheme, I'm surprised no one has tried to sue under the first-sale doctrine. If a game is worth nothing once it's been opened, then...
Capcom's Christian Svensson's response to the streaming bill:
"The reality is, historically we have been helped by these activities (e.g. Evo streaming) and on some occasions we have been hurt by these things (MvC3 Galactus and other video leaks, AE video leaks, etc.).
There is no...
Most indications point to someone holding the rights actually wanting to press charges on whoever posts. Capcom already responded to it's fanbase saying that as long as youtube posts don't contain anything that hasn't actually been released yet that they basically don't care.
Bought my PS3 in December 2006 and it worked up until mid February. Don't know if I feel like sending it in to get fixed, Sony wants $130 which seems like a lot for a system that barely got played unless my 360 was broken.
At 29, my time is limited but my interest is still there, and probably higher than is used to because I can't just sit down and play whenever I want to.
Sometimes interest wanes, and a few years ago it did until I started working full time and could afford almost anything I wanted. Being able...
Watching Game Crazy die. I work directly behind a former Game Crazy and it was great to walk over there and pick up reserves on my break. Or even just talk to employees and play shit that they brought in to play.
I would call back and ask for a coupon or gift card and go to another location. I wouldn't go back in that case unless you know that the whole locations staff has been turned over, and I doubt that's happened.
Sadly, I know people that have had done stupid shit to people's food when it's been...
Definitely new, how psyched I am for it depends it I pay full or wait for a sale or drop. Used is typically a last resort or a way to get a game cheap that's hard to find new.
360. It's been my main console since it's launch, and all of my friends have one. I can't remember the last time I played anything on PSN, nor the last time any of my 3 friends was playing a PSN game I could join.
1997, my friend gave me his cousin's dial-up login so that I could get online for the first time.
Watching gamefaqs.com grow to what it is today.
Probably best times on the net back then was getting up during summer vacation to play You Don't Know Jack the Netshow.
Great deals with limited time to play mostly. Although generally when I buy a game I will play it for a bit regardless. It's just a matter of what holds my interest and games often times get pushed to the back burner. End of 2009 and beginning of 2010 a lot of other games got pushed aside so I...
A white 1987 Pontiac 6000 LE. Relative bought it off a neighbor for $700, but $150 worth of parts into it, and sold it to me for cost in August of 1999. Had a big trunk and enough room for 6. Always wish I got 5 others in there before dumping it.
