This actually happened to me! I had no idea it was a wide-spread attack. I was confused as to why my password wasn't changed or anything. After 30 days, Microsoft gave me my acct back with my points.
I was wondering why they made me validate with a picture that I had the actual code. I was annoyed at first, but I completely understand now.
You made it 1:14! A new personal record!

There should be leaderboards.
My left-handed brother was so pissed about this fact. You don't see a lot of left handed characters and he was one of his favorites. Instead of switching the world around like they did in TP, they should have just allowed you to switch hands.
After buying a Radeon 6970 and having my Wii off for over a year... I'm with you on that one. I'll buy the game if I know it will run fine on Dolphin.
They better have a free copy of Battlefield 3 in the mail for that guy.
Oh man, yes! Multiplayer solitaire is the best!
Dead Space 2 was definitely one of my favorite games this year.
Is there any tunneling programs that will trick DS/3DS into thinking it's right next to someone across the internet? XBConnect did it ten years ago with Halo 1 and it was playable. My 512Kb connection has been upgraded to a 60Mb connection since then. The only question is what wireless technology the (3)DS uses for local play and if it could be interfaced. I suppose if it's not a wireless standard it would be impossible but with WIFI built in I would imagine it was running off that. Does anyone know?
@Peter Pan Complex: I think that was Smoke's fatality, wasn't it?
I've played this demo more than any demo ever in my life. Coupled with my x-arcade stick I've been having a blast. This is the most excited I've been for a fighter.
Funny. I noticed that last night because I was downloading it as my internet was acting up and going in and out. Was pretty pissed after downloading it to realize that I was signed out and couldn't rejoin it.
I couldn't imagine wanting to pay multiple times for 3G service. One for phone, iPad, PSP2, etc. Glad I've got a wifi hotspot on my Android. It works well with my iPad.
Eh. Man, I mean the big fans have played this game multiple times. It's been a while so I wouldn't mind playing it again, but really wish they would add a multiplayer Four Swords game just like they did with the GBA's Link to the Past remake. The GBA sucked when it came to playing multiplayer. The DS had amazing capability and we never saw it again. Wii/DS compatibility is easy too and we never saw a good use of it. Three of my friends and I still all managed to buy four stupid link cables to play Four Swords and Crystal Chronicles on our GBA/GameCube setups. Square atleast tried again this generation, but I was not a fan. They gotta bring something new to the table. 3D and HD are boring.
@PelicanHazard: Sorry but still confused. :\ The $60 edition is called the Limited Edition. Only on the PS3. The Collector's Edition is the $80 one that comes with the replica Plasma Cutter and etc. Only the $80 one comes with Extraction, and if so, why is the $60 version called L.E.?

Also does anyone have any idea if Extraction will be hitting the PSN?
Could someone explain to me the inclusion of Dead Space: Extraction in the PS3 version of Dead Space 2? I know both 360/PS3 comes with Ignition, but that doesn't really excite me. Does Extraction come with the standard edition or only the collector's edition? I noticed the PS3 version is titled Limited Edition so I would assume that means its coming with Extraction for a limited time. I own both consoles, so the inclusion of Extraction will put me over the edge with the PS3. Otherwise I would go with the 360 because of my preference for the controller.
@Cheese Addict: Yup, those long lines of pixel at the tops of the curves. Too perfect. Obviously though I don't know how anyone would consider this to be real. Obviously if they are going to show of product shots of the cable, they don't want to show off three feet of cable plus the end and connector.
@Dark Franklyn: I was thinking the same thing. I've wanted that pad for years, just because. I would buy these things if I could use them as input for my computer.
@John_ryan84: All wired controllers work on the PC. Wireless ones do too if you buy the $20 connector.
