The implosion of Realtime Worlds, after taking over $100m from venture capitalists, is also likely to have a major impact on the willingness of investors to put money into unproven IP in the future, and as such is likely to hurt other developers - especially startups. It's going to have a big...

Where is it even suggested that the Overlord is undead? He's just a really evil guy.

That Milo thing looked pretty impressive, but also phenomenally creepy. Like the Wiimote, this is going to live or die on the applications developers create around it. The reason Nintendo's controller has become a joke is because developers (including Nintendo) are using it as a stand-in for...

Moeru! Nekketsu RHYTHM Damashii: Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan 2 is probably my favourite portable game, but it's quickly being caught by GTA: Chinatown Wars.

Not if they stick with their "ten-year-plan", which actually makes a lot of sense from some perspectives. Considering that they stand to make a lot more money out of game sales over that ten years than a competitor who's busy doing R&D on a new machine (and who's losing cash hand over fist on...

Not yet, but I'd wager that there's a lot more to be had out of the PS3 than we've seen so far. The 360's more or less at its limit, but I have a feeling that the PS3's just getting warmed up. Hopefully it'll be affordable enough that I can buy one by the time it's running full-steam.

I don't take it as a personal insult, no - I do try to find out why they don't like the game in question, and I'll usually try to explain what I like about it, but there's no point in getting offended.

Regardless of how many physical stores you checked, my point still stands: if there aren't any copies of a DVD in a given store, it's the fault of that store, not the production company. The store has to order in the stock they think will sell; the distributor would waste a fortune if they were...

If they hadn't called themselves "The Pirate Bay", it might be easier to sympathize with them. That said, they've probably got a good shot at an appeal. The process could drag out for years, too, so they're probably not looking at serving any time for a while - I'd personally be more...

Do you have any idea how this stuff works? It's not up to Cartoon Network to ship DVDs to any and every store in the world with a DVD rack in it; it's up to the stores to order merchandise that they think will sell. It's not CN's fault that your local DVD shop has none in stock - it's the...

Just because you can't spend $60 plus shipping on something doesn't mean you have the right to steal it.

The first console we owned was an N64; the first one I bought for myself was a Dreamcast, which I've still got and play semi-regularly.

You've got to be kidding. For a show of Samurai Jack's quality (and with its huge rewatch value), $60 is a bargain. You're not entitled to TV shows. It takes a lot of money to produce something like Samurai Jack, and if self-professed "fans" won't support it with anything more than lip...

Sort of [http://www.amazon.com/Samurai-Jack-Complete-Seasons-1-4/dp/B001CT05VC/ref=pd_bbs_sr_3?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1239784906&sr=8-3].

There's probably the same proportion of good:bad cartoons as there's always been. I don't get Cartoon Network any more, so I don't watch anywhere near as much "kids'" TV as I used to, but I don't remember the schedule being as full of anywhere near as much rubbish as some people seem to be...
