Mass Deduction (née scrapking)'s discussions

I used to *google furiously* too. I find each of them just about as good as each other. Bing's just the default on my phone and on my Xbox, so I'm getting used to it. Read more

You can use points to buy Games on Demand titles, you just have to tap "X" to switch the form of payment once you're deep enough into the transaction. Read more

That's what I had heard, and what I was afraid of... though now that I can pick up RB3 for $20, I'm a lot less worried about it. Read more

When you say "old Fallout fans", do you mean fans of Fallout 3 or fans of Fallout 1 & 2? Read more

Their population has actually been on the decline. Read more

It's actually, the UK "Ministry of Defence" (note the "c"), not "Defense" (note the "s"). Here's a link for those who desire proof: [www.mod.uk] Read more

Perhaps you're right. It will be interesting to see. Read more

Interesting, I was misinformed by Dubious Quality apparently (a rare thing, his info's usually pretty solid). Read more

Cool, thanks! Hopefully it's $20 in Canada as well (Games on Demand has regional pricing, not global pricing). Read more

LOL. And I agree, they're near perfect. It's hard to fault any of them, but Peart (songwriting) and Lee (vocals) are the two most inseparable from the band's look and feel. Read more

It still could; PAX has shown huge growth, and brings in tapletop gaming and other forms of entertainment not covered by any Asian video game show that I've seen. Read more

If I were a betting individual, I'd wager that within a few years one of the PAX shows will be the biggest gaming show on Earth. Read more

Perhaps you're not broadly familiar with it. Rush's sound was all rock power trio in the early 70s, then prog rock, then heavily experimental in synthesisers in the '80s, then back to a harder sound in the '90s, and I don't know how you'd describe them in the new millennium (other than awesome). Love them or hate… Read more

Day 1 buy! Read more

Wow... "How am I going to feed my family now?!" Try food. And by food I don't mean mechanically separated, battered, and deep fried chicken meat with tonnes of crazy fillers. Read more

You know, in all the articles I've read about this situation, not one has featured a picture of the damn controller! Read more

Wow, it's coming to the PS2? I had no idea. Even Sony has abandoned the PS2 with their baseball game. Good on 2K to provide such long-lasting support, I love to see that. Nothing warms my heart like the periodic commercial Dreamcast releases, and other long-term commercial console support. Read more

Why would I let it die when you keep making statements I disagree with? *shrug* I'm here to learn, share, and converse, isn't that the point? Read more

I read some of that here on Kotaku. My point is that I would hate for a controller that has the potential to benefit people with disabilities to fail in the market because of some of the personalities connected to it. In other words: down with bullies, up with controllers that assist people with disabilities. Read more
