I don't think it's worse than the "obligatory real name" thing. This at least can be fixed by a savvy user by changing preferences.

You are arguing semantics. You say exactly the same thing as the author, but define "unimportant" differently. While it is important to be on the same page regarding to what we mean by the words we use if we want to have meaningful discussi

No. You get them if you paid any amount before they were added. I had payed well below average (buying foreign currency is currently very hard in my country) and I got the games added. Also, from a recent interview with the guys from the bu

"And even at $50 a pop even the typical teenager should be able to pay cash down for a game every month or two." Maybe in the USA and Europe. But in much of the rest of the world -"$50 dollar" usually cost close to $100 dollars -the typical

Reporter's sources need a right to remain anonymous if journalism is to unveil important crimes. While it is not hard evidence, an article by a respected reporter on a respected publication is, normally, to be trusted. He probably has sourc

If you are going to make claims that don't agree with what most people believe, you should try to at least provide reasoning behind your theories, if not proof. As it is you are just posting speculation as fact. I think you could make a com

A lot of great games have been made on RPG Maker. To The Moon is the most recent example I can think of. You wouldn't say that a program is worth less because it's written in c, a free language anyone can use.

My knee-jerk response is that what you mention is a decent strategy if your intention is to catch terrorists, but if your intention is to get votes, then Lieberman's plan may work better. That may explain "all his years in the Senate"

That's and ad hominem fallacy right there. The fact that the industry are making ridiculous numbers out of crappy statistics doesn't mean an argument that does the same thing is a justified argument against them. I think the point of the OP

It doesn't matter, since movies won't be using Stage3D or Alchemy. This will mostly monetize games made in Unity and UDK published for Flash.

This doesn't solve my main gripe with most time converters. I normally don't want the time in Vienna, I want the time at UST-6. My common use case is that I find out an event will start streaming at, say, 10 PM UST-6 and all I know is my cl

How we read Do Androids Dream with Electric Sheep, or any other novel by Phillip Dick about androids? Or maybe seen Bladerunner? He frequently [and effectively] works with this topic a lot.

I think it's important to mention the the performance constraints of different platforms are very different. When I tried porting a Flash game to iOS using AIR to target it, this became apparent as the cost of creating new objects in iOS wa

The common officialist argument, for whatever it's worth, is that publishing the real values would induce panic and further inflation. Basically, they claim that it would be irresponsible to disclose the real values.

They never did that. They declared the Flash Player for mobile dead. but it's still very viable to make Flash applications for mobile, using AIR.

Well, the interactive novel game genre does exist. I'd say the biggest exponent of it is the Visual Novel, which is in general purely interactive dialog. Very popular in Japan. Still, these games are more popular among men than women. The o

For what it's worth, I would have loved a "skip combat" button on Mass Effect 2. The combat was decent, but it got dull after a while, very repetitive. By the end I just wanted to see the next dialog and make the next choice. That's where t

Perhaps this is naïve, but I’d like to believe that the companies that opposed SOPA and PIPA will now feel some responsibility to help come up with constructive alternatives. This is exactly wrong. It shouldn't be the responsibility of c

If printing is significantly cheaper than producing the object, industries that manufacture the products will just switch to printing, and mass printing will surely let them make a cheaper product than the one you'd make at home. At that po
