Yeah I have to agree.

No offense but you sound clueless at networking, and unless you are willing to read a manual I'd say you are doomed.

The engine has done everything from Strangehold to Undertow...

You probably just don't like the graphical style of the unreal universe. The engine itself is top notch, and the fact that they can shove all those "busy" textures with shaders on them with dynamic true lighting as you run past them hating on them at 10 mph really just shows how power of the engine itself.

Mass Effect and Mario Galaxy deserved nominations.

Folklore's soundtrack was waaay to repetivie.

Heavenly Swords was good but not memorable.

Uncharted and Lair's soundtrack definatly deserved nominations.

I'm satasfied with my current collection.

I suppose I'd pre-order either Haze or Devil May Cry 4.

I guess I'm lazy, but I used to have my cable modem plugged either directly into my PS3 or Xbox360. I suppose I never figured it was that big of a deal because I only changed the cable about once every two weeks. The problem was that yesterday I didn't have the cable modem hooked up to my ps3, but it kept sneaking onto a wireless network reminding me to get the updates for both the firmware and Assassin's Creed.

Yesterday I got up off my lazy behind, went to Frys, and bought a small little wireless router with a couple of ports. I connected my cable modem to the router, and ran the ps3 and xbox to it as well. After that I downloaded the newest PS3 firmware etc.

Finally I went over to my computer, installed TVersity (I was really unlazy), setup a directory for music/images/and movies and returned to my PS3. I was surprised that from my media server, not only could I stream movies and everything else, but I could copy them.

I never read about anyone using the "copy" function with TVersity on divx's

So I decided to copy a divx movie I had from my computer via TVersity, and when it was done was happy enough to find out I could play it from my PS3 harddrive. So now after an afternoon of unlaziness, i can successfully copy movies from my PC to play instead of streaming them at lower quality and I don't have to use a pendrive or CD to transfer the divx's. Furthermore if I grew 2 more arms I could prolly play UT3 and Gears online in picture-in-picture online very terribly :)

Bitmapping has nothing to do with audio.

Basically bitmapping takes a picture and places it on the face of a polygon. So if you had a cube in 3D and wanted to make it dice, you could paste a picture of the difference faces of the dice on each side of the cube.

First and foremost, I want to point out that besides normal and hard difficulty settings, there is a hidden easy mode called "ninja dog" that you can activate if you die 3 times (pretty much any time turning your play through). So if you get to a point that you just can't beat, you can unlock ninja dog mode, then come back and beat it on normal (if you really want to).

Second, i think Sigma is a game that is hard to master, but once you pick up a few key elements it gets extremely easier, and there are websites out there that have master ninja video runs of levels, and once you see how the pro's play, it might make things easier for you as well.

Third, it really is one of the best action games ever, so I think its worth checking out reguardless of how hard it is. Its also milky 60 fps 1080p smooth.
