I don't think I get particularly angry when playing video games, even when dying repeatedly in MW2. I think I can stay unemotional during online games because I believe that what occurs there is worthless. As in, whenever I play a game I always realize that no matter how good I get at the game, it means nothing. It really is pretty useless to be in the top 1000 or better in MW2 or any game. Whatever skill you gain at playing a game basically doesn't exist, since as soon as that game gets old and looses popularity, all the time you invested in your skill at that game disappears. And even while that game is popular, there is a very small circle of people who could care that you have any skill at that game. In other words, I don't mind that someone else out there is ridiculously better at something which in real life is useless.

I'm not quite sure exactly what you are looking for when you say similar, but my interpretation would be no. Infrared is not capable of passing through opaque materials, while on the other hand the wireless technology video game controllers use is capable of passing through several layers of opaque material.

When I think of the idea described by the term "human rights," I think of anything which a human absolutely deserves simply for existing. With that thought in mind, I don't think there is such a thing as human rights, and that they only exist today because people have artificially created them. In other words, I do not hold any concepts as a basic human right. But just to be clear, that doesn't mean I don't appreciate the things some people would argue I deserve.

Actually, I'm kinda into the grid style photo view. Hopefully it will do the same for songs and videos.

Well I'm glad that MS is offering a wireless N option for the 360 although $99 does seem expensive. But that may be fairly comparable in price to some other such devices. However, the article is inaccurate in stating that wireless N is required to stream 1080p video. If that were true, then we could give up from the get go, since basically no-ones' internet connection is as fast as N and the stream would come via the internet. Otherwise is is totally possible to stream HD over 802.11g -- but that's still way faster than the typical internet connection, so I'm sure they can get away with less.

Eh, I don't see the problem. If that's what he likes and that's what she likes, and its legal, and the family doesn't mind, why not? People with an even greater age difference get married all the time. Although I think it is better for people who are in their developmental years to date similarly aged people so that everyone is hopefully of the same mind, I see no reason why there can't be exceptions to this.

I have both for the ps3, and it would be tough to pick one over the other. They are very different games. I have put some 30 hours into the single player of UC2, and have spent some time with multiplayer. Multiplayer for UC2 is a lot of fun, I haven't even tried all the modes yet. As for MW2, I am somewhere in the campaign and it feels better than the campaign from MW. But I haven't spent any time with the multiplayer in MW2, but its probably very similar to the original. UC2 provides a very compelling single player experience. Great atmosphere, great action, and it will most likely draw you in. While so far in MW2, the game has felt like a shooter, yeah there is a story and it is fairly interesting, but I feel like I am playing a video game. UC2 does a better job of making you think you are part of the game. Another difference is that in the single player of UC2, I could plan out how I was going to defeat the enemies in a given area. While in MW2, it is difficult to see most of the battlefield, and even if you can, you typically don't have the time to look. So instead, being able to shoot guys quickly is much more important than thinking in MW2. Another thing, the gameplay in UC2 will probably be much more varied than MW2's gameplay. In UC2 you have your platforming, your shooting, your puzzle solving, your chase sequences, and other set piece moments. While I imagine MW2 will consist of shooting on foot, in a vehicle, and running. So what do you want? A more hectic and intense experience, like MW2 delivers? Or a carefully planned game with a lot of detail, with hectic spots interspersed? And of course, what will your friends get?

I tried the demo and wasn't too hot on the controls either. They felt too slow. I'm sure I would get used to them over time, but my initial feeling was that I wasn't able to accurately control my character. I don't think the game is bad because of the controls though, it is just tough to go from UT2k4/UT3 to kz.

Ps3: -free online -built in rechargeable battery, no special cable required to charge controller. -any 2.5" hdd works -built in wifi -blu-ray That's right, there is no consideration for games in my top 5. Between the 360 and ps3 I figured great games would come to both systems.

In a way I prefer this then a serious uncharted game for the psp. I don't think what makes uncharted great for the ps3 would translate well to the psp, so I would rather not see a depressing version of uncharted.
