  hrmm..

  The New York Times did a review of Borderlands. I guess this is what the "games as art" crowd always wanted - to be taken seriously. Hope it works out as well as desired. I'm guessing it won't.

  Grr..

  Evidently, I am a loser because I don't know how to regularize the Laplacian at r=0.

  Yep. Thought so.

  I saw this coming a mile away. Sony saw all that monthly, regular, dependable cash M$ was getting off of LIVE and decided they want some of that. Thing is, there isn't a way they can do it effectively and not upset customers now. Either 1, the extra services added will not be meaningful to gamers and they won't make any money off of it or 2, they will be meaningful and there will be PS3 owners upset because free online service was one of the benefits they bought a PS3 for. It's kind of odd, really, despite the gains in momentum they've made with the slim, they're still making sophmore mistakes - business wise. If they want their games division to turn a profit, they should start thinking about the PS4 right now and remember that being first out makes a big difference.
