@Twyst3d: Oh I know, but from what I understand NCIX has better Canadian pricing than Newegg.ca. They've also been around longer up there so they have a larger customer base, I think. But overall they're a computer parts e-tailer that is comparable to Newegg/Tigerdirect in the US. They have a US site/ship to the US but the high shipping costs usually end up negating their lower prices.
@mlstrum: This.
Also, I want a dual quad-Xeon with 32 gigs of ram setup. My poor OC'd i7 and 6 gigs of RAM are starting to hurt now that I'm getting into more in depth mental ray rendering. I really need to throw at least another 6 gigs of RAM in. :(

@Twyst3d: Canadaland's Newegg.
@lonewanderer: I love the blurry upscaled 1080p on my Microsoft Xbox 360™. I can't stand native renders. They look too sharp.
@lonewanderer: Crecente = Hardware god!
@lonewanderer: I know right! Stupid PC gamers buying computers to only play games on them. Don't they know they can do so much more?!?!?!?
@Sir-Lucius does anything for Dethklok: CancerAIDs would be too kind for this ilk.
Fucking double post.
@ScuseMePrincess: "Black Ops received star-treatment in terms of writing..."
I lol'd. The writing in RDR makes BLOPs look like a pre-schooler's picture book.

@Hickeroar: I can confirm that merged did indeed play WoW for around a month. He and a couple other Kotakuites started playing before Cata hit and then played through release.
In short, he's not bullshitting.

And sadly the copyright infringement charge was probably weighted more in his sentencing than the identity theft charge. What a world.
@D Mitsuki, Gotta have guts kid!: Mitsuki have my children.
@tusing: Hence the word still, implying that shitty spawns are already implemented.
@izikavazo: Yeah I always thought the goal of the game was to hit harder with each turn until somebody gives out. I had no idea I've been playing it so wrong all these years.
@acme64: What? Maybe I'm misunderstanding you but there are a couple of DS emulators. Owning a DS is certainly not a requirement for playing DS games.
@Squiffy: How can you ignore the lifespans? Seriously, how? You have 30 years of content for one platform vs 5 for another. It's not even a remotely similar comparison. I mean, surprise! A larger platform with a content library magnitudes higher than all of this console generation's libraries combined has higher piracy rates than the smaller platforms. Shit, like sereal said, look at the total percentage game piracy takes up in the grand scheme and the same principle holds true. There are magnitudes more torrents, and users pirating content, for film and music than there are for games. And guess what, those content libraries are THOUSANDS of times larger than all of gaming combined.
@gamingdoctor: It pretty much is. It runs on Qfusion which is a modified version of the Quake II version. Imagine Quake + Unreal combined with some slick graphics and that's pretty much Warsow.
I 'll take Warsow over Warface thank you.
@Dehydration: That kind of stuff I don't mind at all. It's really just creating tiers for game content that pisses me off. Pre-order exclusive game content is annoying enough, but creating different sets depending on where you buy the game is asinine. Hell, even for ancillary things like art books and OST's, retailer exclusivity is annoying.
@negitoro: As others have said, this is kinda the straw that breaks the camel's back. People have put up with these nonsensical retail exclusive items, but in this case it's something so core to what makes Mortal Kombat unique (and honestly worth playing, as the games themselves have never been very good fighting games IMO).
I think most would agree that in the grand scheme of things the content itself isn't as big a deal as say, cutting out certain levels for certain retailers. But this is a special case. In the grand scheme of things the content is trivial, but it's very much tied to what makes Mortal Kombat what it is. Slicing it up this way is just taking things a little too far for a lot of people, especially fans of the franchise and those who hate the practice of retailer exclusive content to begin with.
