No, not that M. That other one over there.
Oh, those homicidal annelids.
Surprisingly, there are no cabs in this game.
Short and sweet... the perfect summer snack!
Is Gearbox bringing DNF back from the dead? Also: Mass Effect on PS3?
Finding art, music and everything else.
It looks like the trial is on. I'm not sure how many of you heard, but sometime last year, a couple of game store owners modified Xboxes and added emulators and roms for old school games. The problem? It's already illegal as it is to put those games onto an Xbox since much of it isn't freeware. On top of that, they installed the software on there with the intent to sell the units, which pretty much makes the whole copyright infringement thing a whole lot worse.
Do I think these guys deserve 17 years in a federal prison? I really don't. I know what they did was incredibly stupid and certainly not right, but 17 years seems a bit harsh, especially when rapists and murderers have gotten out in less time than that on a few occasions.
I guess we'll just have to wait and see if they are convicted of the crime. I honestly think a few years of house arrest without an internet connection in the home would be sufficient enough punishment.
But hey... I'm not in charge.

On the bright side, you can rape a teenage girl in Vermont and only get 60 days.
Or better yet, in California if you drug a girl so shes knocked out, its not rape at all.
~Nintendo~There is a good deal of misinformation on the Internet regarding the backup/archival copy exception. It is not a "second copy" rule and is often mistakenly cited for the proposition that if you have one lawful copy of a copyrighted work, you are entitled to have a second copy of the copyrighted work even if that second copy is an infringing copy. The backup/archival copy exception is a very narrow limitation relating to a copy being made by the rightful owner of an authentic game to ensure he or she has one in the event of damage or destruction of the authentic.
