@Pult|Ost - Fortune Hunter Edition: Wouldn't it be better if it just worked on the PSP natively?
Remote Play is great in it's idea, but never find myself using it for the simple fact that it lags quite a bit
@ShadowOdin of dubious snowiness: Of course that would be the best, but if they somehow managed to get it working it would be awesome. And I'm not sure how the PSP would handle a full featured MMO.

@Pult|Ost - Fortune Hunter Edition: The PSP must still be able to process the information it is streaming. Hence why you can't play regular titles on your PSP.
@ShadowOdin of dubious snowiness: No, actually the PSP only processes the video signal sent out by the PS3 as well as the control signals going back and forth.
The real reason most games don't support it is because the PSP doesn't have the full button set of a DS2. Lair was just a fluke.
@braincadet: Actually, no. Tok is right. PSP isn't doing any game processing on its own. It's also why you can watch Youtube videos via remote play, but they stop on the PSP's native browser... The PSP isn't processing anything but the video feed and the controls.
Not just youtube, but WMVs and DivX files, too. PSP can't do either one.
Yikes! I hope he doesn't get in. Here's a quote: Suspicious of welfare addiction, feeble justice and high taxes, totally committed to preserving its own national sovereignty, unabashedly Christian in a world part secular and part Muslim, suspicious of the Great Global Warming panic, [the United States] was unique...
And now the US, like Britain before it, has begun the long slow descent into the Third World. How sad...
The bold is mine, the italics is the quote. This guy sounds like one of the narrow minded theocrats that thinks "true" Americans are only Christians. The USA is NOT "unabashedly Christian," we are a diverse country with people of many races and many faiths. I hope this guy doesn't get in the senate, because the last thing we need is more Christian supremacist theocratic mumbo jumbo in our government. Kind of funny he'd make a comment about someone of any religion filling the post when not too long ago he's compared secularists and Muslims to guaranteed "third world" status.
Republican or Democrat, anybody who has real understanding and experience with gaming and the industry is good to have in Congress. Gaming is currently held back by an older generation that doesn't fully understand it so instead they fear and condemn it. Much like the early era in cinema where "Gone with the Wind" was a condemned movie because it contained the word "damn" gaming is held back and censored by an older generation that did not grow up with it and doesn't understand it. Yes, the ESRB isn't a government organization, but they are also not the only ones that are holding games back from being a viable tool of artistic medium because of unnecessary shackles placed upon designers, producers, and directors. More understanding brings better decisions and more tolerance, so I really hope this man gets the seat.
Ah Mr. Schilling, subscribing to the conservative school of 'I'm too embarrassed by the Republican party to actually join, even if their base ideas are ones I associate with' I know many people who are independent in that way.
@roguemarvel: I also know many liberals who want to refer to themselves as progressives...just sayin. Because in America liberal has become a dirty word to some. To the extent that some are angered for being described by which political ideal they subscribe. Crazy.
@MadExponent: I think it's not being labeled by political ideal that angers people, but being labeled by political party. Political parties in the US try to represent a broad range of interest, so while many progressives may vote democrat they may agree more with, for example, the green party. They may just be voting for the practical option. Just a thought. I agree that liberal has become a dirty word, though. Just like not many liberals would be likely to describe themselves as socialists, because of all the negative stereotypes attached to it. I think a big reason for the success of the Republican Revolution was their ability to make those words "dirty" in American culture.
By all means let's elect one of us internet know-it-all douchebags to the Senate. Curt Schilling could be the Jackie Robinson of blogging politics, finally breaking through with his one year of Junior college (presumably just to play baseball). Obviously money and fame makes you qualified for anything in this country. To think Obama wasted all that time becoming the first black president of the Harvard Law Review. Who needs qualifications? I bet you if Levi Johnson hadn't turned into a Sarah Palin detractor he would eventually run for office as well on his I knocked up a Republican's daughter platform.
@Scott J: Would never happen. Not here in MA. I think Joe Kennedy wants to run anyway. If he did, it would be a slaughter. Hell, I don't know why a Kennedy wouldn't run. It would be the easiest run for Congressman in history.
Curt Schilling is a fat, ugly troll, in a political sense (well, he's just fat fat, in a normal sense, the fatty), and he needs to stay retired playing WoW on his fat ass instead of wasting money and time on a political run. That constituency is against everything Schilling stands for, but may well elect him anyway, just because Red Sox fans are irredeemably stupid.
@InsidiousTuna: You don't spend much time in Mass do you? He's a republican, and Mass voters don't vote for Republicans, they tried it once with the gov. but he left to go run for President.
Mass people vote for the same hacks year after year, just as long as they have a D next to their name they get their vote. And that's why politics in Mass are so screwed up and corrupt.
@ogt462:
From InsidiousTuna's post: That constituency is against everything Schilling stands for, but may well elect him anyway, just because Red Sox fans are irredeemably stupid.
So yeah, Tuna is aware of the politics involved. The main issue here is if the bloody sock hero of the SAWX can override their common sense long enough to get in. That, unfortunately, is possible.
@InsidiousTuna: Did you mean to use "/sarcasm" instead?
I agree that fame and success do not necessarily translate to successful political actions and perhaps he has no business running for anything. But dude. Lighten up. Insulting tens of millions of people in MA and worldwide because they picked a baseball team to root for is just ridiculous. It's no different than saying anyone who likes Zelda games or the color yellow iis stupid.
@SuperSonik: Yes, I was joking. I don't like the Red Sox or their fans, but come on. I do hate Curt Schiling, though. His many unwanted and unwarranted political statements prove how ass-backwards his thinking is, and how at odds he is politically with most of New England. And yes, that Massholes may vote for him due to his time on the Red Sox is a legitimate concern.
@DaiMacculate - impotentnerdrage.com: Mike Ditka nearly ran against Barack Obama in 2004 when Jack Ryan had to drop out because of his personal issues. Had that happened, I fear the same 'sports fan' mentality would have ensued.
"What a world we live in." I am still trying to figure out what you mean by this.
I keep seeing comments on Luke's posts about putting too much personal bias and off-beat comments in his articles. Now that I am actually observing this I might just be reading into anything. It doesn't change the fact that I still have no clue the meaning behind that phrase.
@Zenrick3.0: Its the Internet so Luke may have a bias whether he knew he showed it or not. I feel like kotaku shows a lot of left bias but it's not my website.
@MadExponent: Would that be surprising if they did lean left?
If you are a hardcore gamer you almost have to lean left because you're spending half your time making fun of right-wing idiots who are trying to regulate the industry back to Pac-Man.
@Yossarian: Um what. Most anti game legislation is introduced by democrats. John Kerry, Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, and al gore have all sponsored anti game bills. I don't really see what you mean there.
@Zenrick3.0: I prefer the writers inject their personal bias into articles, even if I don't always agree with what they say. And you must be a more recent reader, because personal bias and snide comments were the hallmarks of previous writers like Eliza and Florian.
You know, the only reason I would ever want Luke and the other writers to leave out any personal edge in their writing would be to stop thin skinned bitches from moaning about it on every god damned article.
@doubtful: As long as the biased comments don't distract me from the article's content I am ok with bias as well. I don't recall "moaning" about his bias, just stating that I am starting to see where people get the idea from.
I have been a reader for about 3 years, and I honestly don't pay much attention to who writes what. I know the names, I just don't liken any sort of style or bias to any name.
Great now you're distracting me from wanting to know what he meant by that comment. I want answers people! ANSWERS! :o)
Good for him, tried to come back but he's had a long career already(20 something seasons?) and will at least get HoF votes, maybe he won't quite make it though. Hope his game turns out fun.
On another note, those Japanese dudes know how to play baseball... Looks like they're gonna win the WBC. Is this a huge deal in Japan? Or an afterthought like it is here?

Plus Ted Kennedy, a man with questionable actions early in his, was hardly a hack.
And ALL politics are screwed up and corrupt. R, D, I, whatever. They're just not as boring as John Kerry (whom I never voted for).
