I collect fine timepieces. A gentleman always where's a watch.. the more over engineered the better. I have a problem taking people seriously that dont wear a watch.. this "oh I use a cell phone" attitude is lame. So your cell phone will last 200+ years, be passed down to future generations, and withstand extreme conditions? I can understand the price being an issue since swiss mechanicals are generally $3000+

I really enjoyed wing commander privateer.. a big open do anything wing commander universe would be pretty sweet.

Even if Halo Reach graphics were 10-15% below the competition, considering ever single other aspect of the game tends to be superior, its just a flat out better game... amazing attention to detail and character design, as well as the back story makes this awesome.

I like Atlus games, so I will give some props to Persona, alhought I didnt like those games half as much as DDS1 and SMTIII, and I wouldnt even say they are from this gen. It comes down to Mass Effect vs Fallout for me. Sometimes I enjoy a little more linear game.

Bioshock was a short fun game with 0 replay and extremely depressing atmosphere. Mass Effect hands down

MS is not announcing a new Xbox360 in the middle of a recession. I see them holding off another year for business strategic reasons.. rushing the consoles releaseinto a soft market will be devastating. If anything, they have learned that $450 consoles wont sell and they will aim to provide a significant upgrade to the 360 in the $350 range. It probably will not have a blu ray player as MS believes in digital distribution.. again, bad business sense to aid their competition in spreading blu ray which will fail ultimately.

RANT WARNING: So I rush into GameStop on a Saturday night... my college friend, just back from Iraq wants to chat about his time there and play some Halo. I rush out the door, grab my discover card. The cashier helps me pick out the cheapest head set available because im on a budget. I swipe my card and she insists on seeing my card..typical, and my id. The card back is signed. Your signature on the back of your cardis your Id and to be matched the receipt you sign.. when did this ever change? I point this out toher and she stares blankly.When did the average cashier become so incompetent they cant look at the signatures and put two and two together. She tells me she cannot sell me the $15 headset per GameStop policy.. I pulled up in front of the store in a brand new corvette, andthe first thing I would do after stealing a credit card is to purchase the cheapest head set available at GameStop. This just displays no brain activity on the part of the staff: roll: and to deny business in a bad economy as well? Ill have spent thousands of dollars there but not one more cent. Ever.

I called my credit card company to complain about GameStop's policy as discover card discourage asking for ID if the back of the card is signed. They couldn't help.. I later find out GameStop employee has called my card in stolen because I would not provide my ID!!!!!!!!
