Lionhead Studios website overthrown by Che Guevara [update] {Joystiq}
Aug 13th 2009 11:56AM People seem to be completely ignorant of who this Che person really was: a mobster aspiring to be a Stalin-class dictator using the "poor" as a means to justify his power-lust.
Yet his image remains as some hipster doofus representation of liberation of the lower classes from poverty (i.e., rob/extort/kill anyone who has created wealth and justify this by giving some of it to the poor). Of course, the South American governments were no bastion of individual rights at the time he was trying his coups, but his totalitarian control over everyone's lives would have been infinitely worse.
Please read your history books or else you'll only invite future would-be dictators (religious and/or socialist tyrants).
A great example of the sterling behavior on Xbox Live {Joystiq Xbox}
Aug 11th 2009 3:48PM I wish people would really listen to these candid recordings before choosing to vote for more socialism. Truly the apex of civilization requires that our individual rights and property are defended against animal hordes like these.
The sad part is that their vote (eventually) counts just as much as yours.
Xbox 360 officially the only console to stream Netflix -- sorry, PS3 and Wii {Engadget HD}
Aug 11th 2009 10:58AM Too bad the xbox360 fan noise is too obnoxious to be used to watch videos/movies. I'll stick with my TiVo Netflix streaming.
Solar-powered 'guiltless green' home theater system makes your Wall-E Blu-ray very happy {Engadget HD}
Apr 18th 2009 1:33PM Environmentalist Hypocrisy: The only way this guy could be "moral" in the green sense if he were dead and thus had no carbon footprint.
I wish people would stop paying lip service to environmentalism and recognize it for the anti-human monstrous faith-based doctrine of self-destruction that it is. Anyone's guilt for producing enough wealth to exchange for a tasty home theater is certainly undeserved.
It's only the likes of Al Gore an his ilk who wish to rule humans through self-guilt.
CEA rails on California's proposed TV energy standards, rings doomsday bell {Engadget HD}
Apr 11th 2009 11:58AM The CEA's bias doesn't remotely compare to the large scale scam job of the environmentalist doom's day political juggernaut. The mere fact that so many people agree with Al Gore and his ilk without a basic understanding of climate science (or reason) is scary enough.
The main difference is that the CEA cannot FORCE you to use their products, but the government can (and does).

Netflix HD streaming shootout goes down at Engadget Classic {Engadget HD}
Jan 19th 2009 4:18PM I own 3 and rank them in this order: Roku, Tivo, Xbox. Xbox is too loud.
Tivo requires too many button presses to get to your instant queue, doesn't show multiple DVD artwork thumbnails in one screen, and one cannot jump from the first to the last in the instant queue.
However, I'll likely sell the Roku since we don't need it now that Tivo streams.
Fanswag Weekly: Fable II Knothole Island DLC {Joystiq Xbox}
Jan 14th 2009 5:11PM One of my 4 wives wouldn't put out often enough but I couldn't bring myself to kill her. So I told her to follow me in to a cave and some bandits did it "for me."
... as long as I keep eating celery, I'm "pure."
GameDaily HUD Season Finale talks highs & lows of 2008 {Joystiq Xbox}
Dec 31st 2008 3:59PM Fallout 3 = big surprise? I disagree. THAT ending was FAR WORSE than the Fable 2 ending, and Fallout 3 was constantly depressing.
I preferred Oblivion much more than either of these games.
Alert! C&C Red Alert 3 demo now on XBLM {Joystiq Xbox}
Nov 28th 2008 12:22PM Beware, EA's last 2 RTS games suffered big from their lack of server bandwidth---imaging buying this game and then going online to play only to have the servers working some of the time.
To add insult to injury, EA never acknowledged the problems or lifted a finger to fix them. Go to the xbox.com forums for the game Kane's Wrath (EA's most recent RTS) to see the posts regarding this.
I'm a huge RTS fan, but I won't be playing this game for those reasons.
