    The coming american presidential election

    I think that's true for a lot of Canadians. Our politicians are so boring after all... I'm voting for Oprah in 2008

    So now that HD-DVD is dead

    Yes, it's true about DVD/DivX that one did not last long. Wasn't really a fair fight though. Betamax was actually technologically superior to VHS, it lost because VHS was so much cheaper. They still use Betamax in some Middle Eastern countires though. That's exactly what I'm saying about...

    The coming american presidential election

    LOL, where did you hear that? Even if it is true (and he's from Texas so you could very well be right about that), that's his business. I sincerely doubt that he would be pushing creationism into the school system like the current administration. Also, if that's the worst thing you can think...

    So now that HD-DVD is dead

    This is totally false, it's very easy for a young person to look back and make an observation like this, but at the time it was not clear cut in the slightest. EDIT: Oh yeah, and the fact that more HD sets were sold than standard tvs this year does not show a clear migration towards HD. since...

    So now that HD-DVD is dead

    Well, I must be an idiot then because I really do believe that most people won't buy a new player because it's new. The point is that the new formats aren't an upgrade in any meaningful sense of the word. Few actually care about HD let alone own HD TVs, despite the media coverage. The sales...

    So now that HD-DVD is dead

    OOPS, looks like you got some Sony fanbois in our Escapist forums! shadow skill, just because Warner Bros. is going for Blu-ray exclusively doesn't mean that HD-DVD is dead. Granted, with this recent switch, most studios will be behind Blu-ray now. In reality though, both formats are...

    Burn it, Burn it with fire! Now all that is left is to delete all reference to the game having ever existed.

    The coming american presidential election

    I'm Canadian but I'd vote for Ron Paul if I had the chance. I hope that saying that doesn't put me on some kind of no-fly list...

    Greatest Sequels or Remakes

    I don't believe that someone else mentioned Quest for Glory, I love that series. Except I have to disagree with your choices a bit. 2 was probably the best with 3 and 4 fighting for second place. 5 was a steaming pile of crap that was the last one made for very good reason. Space Quest 5 was...

    Morrowind as Life Affirmation

    I agree with the OP, but have you ever played Daggerfall? That was the Elder Scrolls game before Morrowind (I'll bet some didn't even know about it). That game was frankly much better than Morrowind. The decline from Morrowind to Oblivion is part of a greater decline in the series in general.

    YOUR strategies in Bioshock.

    My mother said if I didn't have anything nice to say that I shouldn't say it at all. My Bioshock strategy involves pushing the power button. HAR HAR HAR!

    MGG=REVIEW-WORLD OF WARCRAFT:BURNING CRUSADE

    OMG you used the same name! So you went through the trouble of registering for another forum name just to back yourself up against the throngs of people waiting to flame you, and you used the same name? That's classic. Post your phone number while you are at it. Oh, and I believe...

    X-Play Revamps Format

    I doubt they revamped the formula enough to make the show not suck. Morgan Webb is teh finesauce, but she's not on the show anymore is she? Too bad. If Adam is the creative director or whatever does that mean he's not going to be on the screen anymore? That could be a definite improvement. A...
