    ESO - Elder Scrolls Online

    SW:TOR did a pretty good job at addressing this, well perhaps not the uniqueness part. The storytelling in SW:TOR is unsurpassed.

    ESO - Elder Scrolls Online

    Supposedly there's sizable DAoC influence in this game. That's appealing to me, but I doubt I'll buy it on release. I need an MMO break :P

    Is SEGA COMING BACK? Who knows.........

    Sega was always a few years ahead of the competition. The Saturn was out before the 64 and the Playstation, the Dreamcast ahead of the Gamecube (which was a colossal mistake by the way), the Xbox, and the Playstation 2. Sadly, I think having better tech out faster killed them. I have a soft...

    Now y'all let's not get militant. :P I don't know what else that patent would be applied to. My guess is Xbox One.

    Here is the patent paperwork for Visual DRM via Kinect. I think that clears this up quite nicely. As far as Microsoft monitoring you ... allow me to pick apart that quote you have. "...but we don't transmit personal data in any way, shape or form that could be personally identifiable to...

    Well, visual DRM is basically set in stone. For instance, they'll need to ensure you aren't letting more than the maximum amount of people watch a movie - so they'll have to watch you the whole time. Kinect may not be on when the system is off, or on standby, but it's a grey area and Microsoft...

    This. Wave "hi" to Microsoft for me... or, rather, wave "farewell" for me rofl.

    When do we stop rendering unto Caesar??

    Gerbil we all care about your well-being and how you are doing in all of your walks of life. I don't want to make it appear that I don't care - that's not what that post was about. However, you cannot just throw it out there that slavery and torture are "ok" practices (even if the Bible says...

    When do we stop rendering unto Caesar??

    If Tek wasn't already involved with this thread and if he hadn't already had plans for it, I'd lock it right now. The responses thus far are only marginally related to what the OP is saying, granted only a few people can read it. Neither slavery nor torture are ok, and there will not be a...

    The fact that their answer was completely unrelated to the question of whether or not they will use visual DRM (a yes or no answer is required) is crazy! They danced around the question better than most politicians!

    I'm talking with some friends on ventrilo right now and one is saying that Microsoft is indeed going to use visual DRM to determine whether or not you can access media you have purchased. Read this article. Thoughts?

    MSE is good. I also use Malwarebytes if I need to bring out the big guns.

    Its in the article the OP linked. It's been updated a few times, so you probably missed it.

    Microsoft is just being greedy. What I really don't like - and this is related to other areas of gaming - is how this takes away the power you have over the product you bought. I believe that after you purchase something, that item is yours and (within reason) you should be able to manipulate...

    Microsoft loves console gamers

    The update suggests it will be far from a measly $0.25 - "...may incur the same fee as brand new purchase." That's a very good point. I remember at the time when the Steam download client came out and PC gamers were raging because it eliminated hard copies of the games they wanted and would...

    Anyone looking to sell a smartphone?

    I got lucky on Craigslist the other day and snagged a working (and legal) HTC Sensation 4G in superb condition for $180. There is hope Tek! Unless you've bought Icthus' phone... then you don't need hope.
