Ditto. I love how it's in the same sentence as a charity donation.

I'm surprised you didn't include an 8800GTS for comparison in your benchmarks.

It would be reasonable to assume that those interested in the Akimbo would be GTS buyers looking to save a little money.

Never bothered with the Playstation Store, but I've been waiting for DTS-MA support since July '07.

Thank you Sony for not burning me (for once).

No problems here thus far (Vista Ultimate 32-bit). All in all, it's pretty transparent.

The things I notice the most are the added ability to choose the drive(s) you want to defragment (although there is still no indication of progress) and the removal of "Search" from the start menu. The latter is particularly annoying if you're like me and always use "advanced" searches.

Grievous sound retarded like he did in RoTS. They should have kept the voice-actors from the original Clone Wars.

Smells like a money-grab to me. I'd be happier if Mainframe would finish Reboot.

*sigh* I want my Resident Evil requel.

MK was a great game and a decent movie, but I think its time has passed.

However, if they seriously wanted to make another go at this property, it should be on TV as an hour-long or mini-series. I mean, they could introduce a new character every episode for two seasons if they wanted.

This card would be a attractive offering to those currently looking to purchase an 8800 GTX/Ultra but want the benefit of a lower price and retain media acceleration for HD/BD movies.

However, it's likely nVidia's next offering will provide the same benefits with improved performance.

Meh. Let me know when they're fully naked, grinding against the hoods, and spraying each other with garden hoses.

As for this, they should just say it's art and they would've been covered. ;) Instead it's bye-bye spine.

This isn't the full remake of RE: The Movie that I was hoping for, but it could potentially be better because I doubt they'll try and mass-market it. It could be truer to the original material (although it wouldn't take much).

The Advent Children/Spirits Within analogy is a good one. Made for the fans VS. Mass-market. I agree 100%.

I just hope they do a decent dubbing job.

If they can remake The Hulk after just a few years, they can remake Resident Evil and actually make it good.

Come on, what say you?

So, they're not really going to do anything about the problem; they're just going to cover it up? No pun intended.

Any word yet on when that's going to happen (the 65nm CPU)?

It's a dirty question, but somebody had to ask it.

I'm personally hoping in time for Halo 3.

Throw in a free copy of Halo 3 (not Table Tennis!) and I'm sold! It'll never happen, but it was a nice thought.

Did anybody see "V for Vendetta"? I'm seeing some disturbing parallels. Better put this game on the blacklist, along with the 1812 Overture.

Why do studios keep giving Uwe Boll money??

Videogame movies are in serious need of an "X-men" so filmmakers will start taking them seriously. No more of this change-everything-but-the-title bullsh*t.

The PS3 vs. the world thing has been done
(http://www.soundandvisionmag.com/hd-dvd-bluray/1927/shootout-3-blu-ray-disc-players.html) but it wouldn't hurt to have a FiringSquad spin on it.

What I really want to see from the next firmware upgrade is DTS-HD Master Audio decoding. That would make the PS3 the first "complete" Blu-ray player. Although I wouldn't complain if they lowered the price too.

Does this mean PC gamers are getting the shaft again?

I think this "we'll give them a crappy port in a couple years" attitude is starting to become a trend.

Actually, I think it's better that they release it after the series ends (the first one, anyway). That way they can delve into expanded universe stuff without having to worry about canon. It should be a good way to let the series live on as long as the don't release it TOO far in the future.

Seems like they've completely missed the point of Resident Evil with these movies (especially the last two). It's supposed to be a survival horror, not a beat 'em up, blow 'em up action fest.

If you see a monster, you shoot them or RUN THE F*CK AWAY when your gun isn't big enough. You don't take them down with your madd kung-fu skillz!

They should remake these, not The Hulk.

Ok. Rant over.
