Listening now


LBP 2 multiplayer: do we actually have platforming games that work online? Probably the reason Nintendo never tried it!


RE5 troll


250 is a bit pricey, but not super bad. It will stell sell out and it is pretty powerful for a handheld and it is 3D, let's not forget that.


Okay you talk about battery life, good. And why won't you not turn of the Wifi? It is a battery drain! And why would you not turn off the brightness? Parallax barrier has less problems with brightness than a 3D screens with glasses. The glasses kinda work like sunglasses. Not sure how much the parallax barrier will block out light though.


Also now we know why Nintendo has not specified various battery life. It depends on too many things. On brighness, wifi, 3D turned on and off, etc. There are many possible combinations, that would be a long ass list.

The lengthe was perfect too.  I think we have a sweet spot between 70-80 minutes.

Homer and Vader, based on a news story I posted today it seems the problem you have in getting an online game going is a glitch that Media Molecule is working on patching.

Ah right.

Also Aspro, noticed you made quite an interesting edit when I was talking about the Modern Warfare 3 story - the name of the developer whom was doing the multiplayer (Raven Software, btw) wasn't mentioned, it immediately cut to me discussing their pedigree.

Sorry, that was not intentional, I don't recall doing that.  Are you sure it was an edit?  I generally only cut stuff out if there is an audio issue, sometimes I'll cut out "ummmm" and "ahhhs", sneezes or coughs.

EDIT: Yeah, I just checked Homer, it wasn't an edit, it must have been a skype drop-out.
