9572AD, duly appointed representative of Idiombox, hanging loose at the GGE.

Jim Allchin said,
LH is a pig and I don't see any solution to this problem.

Copy protection and DRM schemes have gone beyond pointless and now reside in the realm of the asinine. Corporations desperately need to redefine whom they see as their potential audience. Someone who hasn't the money to spend isn't one of your potential customers. Someone who refuses to spend their money isn't one of your potential customers. Someone who has the money and is willing to spend it isn't going to pirate.
...unless the pirated version is easier to use because some corporate numbercruncher insisted on crippling the product with a protection scheme.

WIP pile
(Actually, "In Progress" is a bit too strong a description for many at this point. Slap me with a trout until I finish what intrigues you.)
  • SpecTOR-G occasionally progressing, see below
  • DiaB OLC: Body and Soul surreal single-switch rhythm action game, technical problem
  • ThreeeDeep Reeemake Fr*gger II: ThreeeDeep remake, needs new start
  • Lazar Defense remake of a game I created attempting to clone Atlantis but serendipitously failing, style issues
  • Tutankham*N Tutankham remix with editor, needs new start
  • NSA single screen space shooter, technical problem
  • Shiftees puzzle game, got distracted

and yet I still have no interest in the PlayStation 3
I am a certified console whore. Observe:

Well, I'd think Matt Fairfax has more to do with it than GG. :)1199292046

PC version hobbled with DRM crap. I was planning to buy the 360 version anyhow, as retail PC gaming has gone down the crapper, IMO. Live for Windows is coming to XP, btw.1187893904
Looks interesting, though I can't say I'm excited yet. I don't like GGE's choice of the word 'indifferent' - it makes one sound uninterested.1187680401
Played the 360 demo. Hate ego shooter controls on consoles, but had a decent time with this one. Outstandingly atmospheric and well paced. Here's hoping the full game balances as well.1187115982
The powerup system looks kinda random for my tastes, but the horizontal-to-vertical shootering is an insane idea of the best kind!1186992746
LOL @ "Care Bears" as a feature. Watch your back, American Greetings might be coming for you! :)1179836300
"LittleBigPlanet is perhaps one of the most dazzling demos I've seen in the last 10 years." -- BBC That about sums it up for me. Nice little materials and physics demo, but a game? I don't see it.1179835823
I know it's hard on the eyesight, and I see the sheepies have jetpacks now, but I miss the verdant fields and sheep-hurdles of the alpha alpha...alpha version. Ah, well.1177088682
Actually, I'm finding several games he likes to just say "boring" about. Guess what, ya narutophile, people like different styles of games, so just saying "boring" doesn't tell anyone anything. I vote troll.1175952247
