Don't listen to him! He's trying to trick you!

Silly Podcast... everyone knows German's are the worst lovers. They can't feel love. They just chant the world with random adjectives during their trance music.

I do have to say... I'm kinda hopeful I can collect comments from all three in one comment thread.

But now that you've revealed your dastardly plan, Chris is certain to avoid replying to you.

I can get my jollies elsewhere then. Keiko hasn't felt the wrath of the hose yet....

WAH! This game cheats! WAH!

i just played the game on normal to experience the story, then i went back to multiplayer :)

Nobody should play their first playthrough on veteran, it ruins the cinematic experience, and the game as a whole. It's a nice challenge, but certainly not the way the game was meant to be played.

Apply common disclaimer that Joystiq is not responsible for the complete destruction of any playable devices especially modded toasters capable of playing Doom.

I think there's another disclaimer about people who have Zune's being responsible for any and all problems in their life, whether or not it's Zune-related.

hey i fixed it, also just because i don't conform to your iClone regime doesn't make me an idiot

I prefer to just haul my laptop everywhere I go and listen to it instead. Now I just need a laptop-holding armband for those morning jogs...

I follow a strict rule of not leaving my desk.

I follow a strict rule of never eating beans. Mainly because I don't trust them at all.

So if you don't like a Zune, you're obviously an iPod fanboy joining a regime? You know... that's the dumbest shit I've read on here today. And considering I had to wade through some Fernando and Noshino quotes... that says something.

Here's an idea. Maybe some people have MP3 players NOT locked down with DRMs. Like my Philips Jukebox. Bought it for $50, dramatically below any other systems cost of admission. 8GB, built in FM tuner, and the undeniably huge advantage of drag and drop music tranfering. No syncing, no updating, no middlewar programs, none of that bullshit. Music folder, drop in music, and it works.

But hey, you guys like your status of the more expensive players. I'm sure they'll get you chicks one day. I'm happy with my philips at a fraction of the cost, better battery life, and the disgusted looks I get when I pass by the apple store.

Your right sheepy, except for the fact that Grant uses Macs and says so on the podcast.

I'm totally tobias in this regard – i worked on Windows computers for years, did IT work in college, and at some point I realized I was in an abusive relationship that I could leave at any point. Microsoft had to work very hard to get me to believe in the Xbox 360, and they've got to work a lot harder before the Zune gets the same respect.

Once again I charge forth....

My Philips Jukebox reads like a portable drive on Mac and PC. So no matter your pleasure, the drag and drop functionality works.

Except you have to remember the commands to actually copy files instead of just creating shortcuts.... gah, was I soooooooo glad to be done with macs after college. Of course college lab macs are not indicative of macs as a whole, but the constant locking, chewing of my zip disc, and other issues drove me from that cross section long ago. In fact, everytime I see a mac, I remember how much time I lost in their labs trying to finalize projects before deadlines just to watch them lock.

but Mass Effect has such a great personality.

yeehaw

I believe Chris rocks out on the 360 (hence the references to the dashboard).

Yeah, Donald is correct. I understand the PS3 has a simpler solution for this, but the 360 can be a real chore sometimes. I'm not sure if I'm the only person who has this issue: controllers that refuse to forget their input assignment.

I meant AOL/TimeWarner, which has a market cap of 60.18B (http://tinyurl.com/2z2k4f) versus News Corp's market cap of 21B (http://tinyurl.com/ys6kkz). I'm not sure if that figure for News Corp is accurate, since I'm seeing it much higher elsewhere but; regardless, I'm not insane enough to claim that AOL is as large as News Corp or even Fox Entertainment Group for that matter, if that's what you were asking. ;)
