Hopefully it's not that

The new Vita is garbage. There's going to be a lot of people who buy this inferior model because they don't know any better.

I'm not a big fan of selling this version to take advantage of people who aren't smart.

No, it's a matter of opinion. The OLED vs LCD argument is overblown. I'd rather have longer battery life. If you think the OLED version is better, then you can get that version. Nobody is stopping you. But it doesn't mean that someone who has a different opinion isn't smart. It's more likely that people who think that the new Vita is garbage are just internet trolls.

Lets just put it this way. DRM has ruined PC gaming for me. It used to be fun but its all been going downhill. Too many problems with downloading games, people have gotten lazier. At least when we had CDs we had a finished product with ALMOST NO GLITCHES.

I hate where PC gaming is going. But whatever bro

my gaming install experience is much easier with digital distrubution then it was with dvds.

Nah... It's much better to have a physical disk. Yea, you have to download manual patches, but if someone is too tarded to do that then they should go buy a console.

Although, the worst is buying a disc, only to have it install the steam version. This happened with a few games, I felt totally ripped off.

Don't buy early access.

Don't support this bs trend.

Game companies want to save money by outsource QA to people who will do it for free or even pay them.

Legalization is just enabling a bunch of worthless junkies. Yes, the "war on drugs" isn't working well, but that's by design. The HSBC scandal highlights just how hypocritically corrupt our system is. But that does not change the fact that drugs ruin lives, tear apart families and destroy neighborhoods. None of those things has any bearing on the legal status of marijuana. Legalization would only further exacerbate those problems.

Further, all the arguments for legalization are lies. It will not reduce crime, it will not reduce usage, it will not be a financial well spring for the gov't, and it certainly will not bring about world peace. Remember, there were criminal gangs before drugs were made illegal. And quite frankly, prohibition was probably one of the best things that ever happened to this country. Alcoholism was out of control before the 1920s. This was a completely different era where women couldn't hold jobs or at least most jobs were unavailable to them. Anyway, there were men who would spend their entire paycheck on alcohol and let their families starve to death. Could you imagine going to your kitchen and not finding any food? You're literally starving to death and your Dads out there getting drunk and your Mother is helpless to do anything. Situations like that ended after prohibition. Prohibition greatly reduced the amount of alcohol consumption and addiction problems. The same good has come about with the criminalization of marijuana.

*Raises a glass to organised crime*

Organized crime existed before drugs were made illegal.

do you ever post anything even close to factual?

Just because I poke big gaping holes in the propaganda myths the mainstream media presents does not mean that what I post isn't true. If something isn't true then take me to task or stfu.

While we're on the subject, armed Mexican citizens have won a victory in the war on drugs.

Perhaps this can teach the rest of the world how self-defense can be executed to safeguard communities and homes from violence and corruption, without the coercion of the State.

It seems this is a perfect example of Agorism at work, as we see history being written before us.

http://www.activistpost.com/2014/01/mexican-citizen-militia-movement-takes.html?m=1

The lesson to be taken from this, is that if the state wanted to end these drug gangs they could do so. States have successfully stopped the production of drugs when they went about it honestly. The current regime in the US is not enforcing the drug laws in earnest. A whole list of facts can be cited from the HSBC scandal to the fact that in NYC only black users are arrested for marijuana. The state is certainly not enforcing the laws honestly when they only arrest certain groups for violating that particular law. But that does not mean the law is bad, it means the people who are enforcing the law are bad.

I know all about that one there buddy. You have to do that EVERYTIME you turn on your computer.

So do you install drivers EVERY TIME you turn on your PC?

You have to permanently disable driver signing in order for unsigned drivers to work. That's just the way it works.

Sorry, but Win8 is broken. It's not that it's new, it's that they removed and changed things in such a way that some things don't work anymore.

As much as I'd much rather buy a physical copy, downloading is just the way they are being distributed. It's cheaper than physical, you don't even need to print a manual, so there's no incentive from a monetary perspective on the part of publishers.

I'd much prefer to buy a physical copy, if anything for a printed manual. Time was when we used to get all sorts of things along with the game and those things were every bit a part of the game as the game itself. Maps, bestiaries, spellbooks, etc, etc. Yea, some of that stuff still exists today, but seeing as the internet has changed the medium in so many ways they can deliver that content much more cheap.

Plus, I think back in the 1980s the average IQ of the average gamer was probably at least 10 points higher than it is today. Consider that only nerds and geeks played computer games back then. This, I think was factored in when publishers decided what went into the content of the game as well as the box design. Plus, the publishers were part of the creative team since it took only a handful of people to create games back then.

Bottom line is that physical copies of games are going the way of the printed newspaper.
