Didn't the Atari 2600 have a GameLine service that you could download via telephone line? If that's right, damn that must have taken forever.

I like it when people use the word "gay" in any context other than a homosexual one - it only proves that they have the maturity of a five year old, as if their obsession with shooters didn't already do a good job of pointing that out. It's also pretty amusing that he pointed out Skyrim considering the fact that, y'know, it's set in the bloody medival era and doesn't even have muskets, let alone generic modern firearms.

But just for fun, let's play around with his logic a bit.

game - gun = gay
game + gun = -gay
game + gun + Arem = ???

Just in case you needed more evidence that PETA are fucking retarded, they plan to protest the rights of a fictional species. This would seem facepalm worthy in of itself, if not for the specific species - fucking Zergs, of all things.

So, random question. What was the first DLC ever? and Why the hell did they go with it? I want a roundhouse discussion of this stuff.
As far as I can tell, DLC was originally conceived as expanded game content in digital form that was created to increase replayability and add more to the game. It was a natural evolution of the expansion packs of old, but in digital form as the internet had become more widespread and pretty much everyone had access to it. This insured players could easily connect and download said content to add more to their gaming experience, be it free or for purchase. I'm not sure what the first DLC was, though, that'll need a bit more research.

Also, PETA is still as stupid as ever, I see.

Zerglings are mindless, expendable giant alien locusts. They're so expendable you get two per egg.

Though I do like how they specify only Zerglings. I mean, really. Fuck Roaches, Hydralisks and Infestors.

While it is true it is commonly used phrase, I do agree that is wasn't in the best of tastes to put that sort of thing in the game.

And to be frank, the devs seem to have handled the issue rather well.

I get a feeling if Gears pulled something like this they would be given more leeway.

Visceral Games had the balls to name an Achievement "Bad Nanny" in Dante's Inferno. How to get it? Kill a certain amount of demonic babies. Considering that this is God of War we're talking about, I would hope they had firmer balls than that.

Besides the upcoming KINGDOM HEARTS HD 1.5 ReMIX, there's another game on the horizon. This one is simply a browser game, but appears to have some level of online functionality. It's called KINGDOM HEARTS x[chi] (Kingudamu Haatsu Kii). One of the comments mentions that it'll be set during the time of the Keyblade Wars, but it's not yet known whether this is as vital to the overall plot as every other game.

Square Enix Japan is currently accepting closed beta applications, though only those with Yahoo! JAPAN ID's can apply. Whether this'll be playable locally remains to be seen. Probably not.
