Hey raven I got the kojima story and the moore story up this morning. Did you not check? Dvader was right? No one checks the updates ? Sad

Sorry, GG. I didn't see the Kojima story.

Hmm, I didn't post anything about Moore except the Facebreaker stuff which was last night and way before there were any news posts up.

Guys did you see this about Portal still Alive article that Vader posted?

So if you’re a PC Portal owner who, like me, was feeling excluded by Still Alive’s bonus content, fear not: you get to play that content first, and for free.

Ouch, better stick with the PC version than. Microsoft charges for thing that are free on the PC, nice.

LOL Comments with genital references: 91

How the fuck does the system acknowledge when a genital reference has been made? What if I say a thinly veiled one like: Iga stares pensively at my ballsack, pondering his own groins.

I see that the launch of GiantBomb was already mentioned (nearly the first thing this week Nyaa). Not to compete with InsertCoin, but that is how a gaming website should look.

"In addition to the standard discussion forums, every single page in the database has a forum at the bottom." Yep, that definately owns one giant disorganized and impossible-to-keep-track of board.

http://www.mcvuk.com/news/31302/Moore-Wii-will-own-half-of-all-next-gen-sales

Peter moore says wii will take half of all next gen sales.

He's wrong. Wii is not a next-gen console.

You are right Wii, 360 and PS3 are all current gen.

Wii is a continuation of the Gamecube generation, so its last-gen. 360 and PS3 are current gen.

And the Playstation 3 is a continuation of Playstation 2 and Xbox 360 of Xbox, so I guess they are all last gen than?

But the Wii is like a step away from Gamecube with a few extra lighting effects when we're lucky, while 360 and PS3 are quite a few steps away from the old machines, to the point where its obvious to the eye that they're not on the old machine. Which you already know so I don't know why you're playing semantics games here.

Giant Bomb doesn't track how many times someone has said "penis" now does it?

Thanks for the support of taking a site made for 10 people in my spare time while I'm trying to find employment and am working to finish a side project and comparing to a site that's been in development for half a year and has thousands of visitors and actual cash flow to pay for servers and doing the actual work on the site.  I'm sorry I can't keep up with that from one person's work in a month.

True, but a step is still a step. And next gen does not mean better graphics, but the next in line. Even if the graphics would be worse than the Gamecube it would still be a next gen console, because it is the generation after Gamecube, a simple concept really.

If you have a kid that is retarded it still means he is in the next generation. I am "playing the semantic game" as you say it, because you are wrong plain and simple.

I guess it come down to how we define what a "current-gen" console is:

Best graphics and horsepower = current-gen?

OR

New gameplay experiances due to the reinvention of how we play games = current-gen?

Personally, I choose the second option.
