Here in South Korea, the 4GB model sold for $99 for Black Friday at the BX/PX at U.S. military installations. Were there similar discounts on the 4GB model elsewhere? At $99 is that really helping the bottom line? Seems like that would be a loss leader for Microsoft

I am in South Korea, and as of late last night PSN is NOT back up, I don't care what some official PSN blog says. What the hell Sony?!

I know Sony and Valve should have tested all of this before hand, but what if it is Steam conflicting with PSN? I mean look at the timing. That would be crazy stupid, but I wouldn't put it past Sony to let something like that happen then not admit the truth because it would cast them in such a...

I have been trying to tell women that for YEARS but they just won't listen!

Steven BancroftWhy on earth would they make 2 versions of the same game? Could they not agree on the use of super moves or something? And who in their right mind would want to buy both? I definitely wouldn't have liked it if they made Marvel vs. Capcom 2, and then I had to buy Capcom vs...

Ok, nevermind, I take it back. Through the use of a shutter the same frame is repeated. After that the film is advanced through the projector head to the next frame.

zybchUm, YES they do. Each frame is shown twice to reduce percieved flicker caused by the projector gate. There are still only 24 distinct images being shown every second, but they each get shown two times. How are they doing this? Run the film through, stop it, reverse it, and run it through...

darkwingz2424FPS is the threshold where a series of still images looks like motion, not the limit of the eye. So the more FPS the more fluid it looks. That is not to to be confused with the eyes ability to see flicker which is 50-60Hz. Thats why movies in the theatre are filmed at 24FPS (for...

How will there be an angle problem? This makes no sense whatsoever. The screens are only about 3" and only about 1 foot away from your face. If the 3D starts to look a bit odd, simply tilt, twist, move you hands and voila! It looks good again! This isn't some TV on a stand in the living...

grieveIf you have PST files larger then 1.5-2 gig you are in trouble as they become corrupt around 2gig. Believe me i have seen it happen at least ten times. I tell all our users 1.5gig tops...create a new one. Since Outlook 2003 the limit on a PST is 20GB. However I have had a user be well...

mutantmagnet"We're a culture of gamers. We will definitely work on a console game at some point. I have no doubt about that. It's just [a matter of] what game. What makes the most sense?"Here's an idea: revive StarCraft Ghost. That makes sense."So your suggestion to get Blizzard into consoles is...

"Enough is enough! I have had it with these motherfucking snakes in this motherfucking vacuum cleaner!"

A rather small developer is knocking companies that BUILD the engines that multiple games run on. Think about that. They also keep building rendering engines that other games will run on in the future. id and Crytek aren't just simple game companies. They are out to set the visual landscape...

Hey wow, I get this radio station from like 100 miles outside of town! My radio must be killing me! Jesus Christ people. It the power of the transmitter, and the sensitivity of the receiver at the towers that enable cellphones to have such coverage. Do some math. Look at the power rating on...

Unfortunately I can't browse to wowwiki right now, but I do believe the vast majority of the 11.5 million or so WoW players are Chinese. They do not pay a monthly subscription fee. They pay per hour of gameplay time. They buy it in blocks usually to get a discount. Also Blizzard get's only a...
