Wii Not Next Gen, But Still Prettier Than You Think

"Graphics are important, but the importance lies in a balance between artistry and technical excellence.

Studios without good art departments are going to have bland looking games for the Wii. Studios with really top notch departments are going to have games that look visually stunning."

Louisiana Passes Thompson Bill

"I know I'm not adding anything particularly insightful or intelligent, and for that I'm sorry, but is it just me or does every picture of Jack Thompson look like he's shat in his pants and trying to hide it?

Every picture."

Kutaragi: The PS3 Ain't No Game Console, It's a Computer!

"I think the one thing people sometimes forget is Kutaragi is a computer engineer first and foremost. He's a lousy spokesperson. In this regard, too, of course he envisions a device that is completely modular.

That being said, they've got to know that with very few exceptions (none really come to mind, save the RAM expansion pak for N64, which worked for a grand total of 5 games) NO changes to a console's form ever work out. Hell, even with the 360, there are games already that are 'hard drive required.' I find it so odd that Sony - the company that's virtually defined the market for the last decade - could screw up so royally. I'm just happy that $660 (Canadian) is staying firmly in my bank account."

Gay Gamer Survey

"Yeah, I'm of the homo persuasion, and I don't get the point of this survey.

There will always be Xbox Live players calling people fags... just deal with it.

Most of the homos I've met fall into two categories.

1. Videogames Suck. I never play them.

2. Videogames Rule! I will SO kick your ass in DDR!

And last time I checked, there were plenty of straight fans of the Final Fantasy series, which has more sexually androgynous characters than any drag show on earth.

But seriously, a good game is a good game. Whether your checking out Ivy's chest or Kilik's abs while playing Soul Caliber is your thing."
