I find this topic very interesting. I wonder if developers would ever be bold as to set a high-profile game during the Civil War. The Revolutionary War offers the Brittish as an opponent, but the Civil War would leave no option but to kill American troops.

I am lucky enough to live near a cellphone repair place that also offers game system repair. My 1st gen PS3 (with backwards PS2 compatability) had the power source go out. It cost $60 to repair, but I have a large library of PS2 games that my son still plays, so I went ahead and had it fixed. The guy was also able to repair a Wii for $25 when one of my kids shoved a PSP game into the slot.

I have a 1st gen PSP that is falling apart and a DS that has problems with the bottom screen. What do you guys think the cutoff repair price is, where it just makes more sense to buy a new (updated) system?

I just bought a new copy of Assasin's Creed, and downloaded the new firmware before playing. Everytime I try to start the game, I get a screen saying that I need to download software version 1.01. I start the download, which always ends in an error after anywhere from 6%-20%. My other games are playing fine, and the system doesn't appear to have any other problems. The disc itself shows no scratches or damage. Is this a problem with the new firmware, or possibly just a problem with the game?

I have never been a fan of gamestop. I only shop there is literally no one else in town has the game I want. The lack of quality control and emphasis on pre-orders and memberships have ruined what started out as a great concept.

I had a horrible habbit of buying games last generation and got up to probably 50 unfinished PS2 games. I'm doing much better on PS3, and have finished most of my games. Unfortunately, I have 6 Wii games and haven't finished one of them. The Wii games just haven't impressed me, so other than Super Mario Galaxy (which I'm getting for Christmas), I may never actually finish a Wii game.

I know who he is, but I wouldn't say he's a great fighter. He is entertaining, but not really that skilled.

I didn't buy movies for a long time, but I've started again. The local Blockbuster clears out used DVD's for $5 each after they have been on the market for about 6 months. It currently costs $4.50 to rent these same movies. Unless I am renting a movie that just came out and is still full price, I prefer to just pay the extra $.50 to keep the DVD. I'm just cheap like that.
