Yep, Sega chairman Isao Okawa tried to negotiate a deal with Microsoft, but it looks like his insistence on netplay was a dealbreaker.

Just imagine what the world could have been
I've been following the various debates for a while, and - unbelievably, given historical precedent - it's now looking likely that the Senate is going to pass a bill.
I was wondering whether you guise in the States especially had any opinions on its efficacy! Or anyone else, for that matter.
and I can barely keep a straight face. Which is awful, because she has essay deadlines for next week. I've lent her a laptop for the time being, but in terms of fixing the thing, macs are completely obtuse for me, so I thought I'd post here and see if anyone could lend a hand.
When you turn...
I've got a friend who has 600 quid to spend on a gaming PC, and has asked me to help him put together a machine inside a cube case, ie

He's already got optical drives and a monitor.
The problem is, while...
I've searched and couldn't find a solution to this - hopefully someone will have seen something I haven't.
Every time I log in to a steam online game, I load up the level, drop into the world and start playing, only for everything to freeze in what's best described as 'infinite lag' - I can...
I'd heard it was popular among US students so decided to pick up a bottle last night.
Hahahaha, it's great - its taste resembles cough medicine and it's syrupy sweet, you can rack up the shots without feeling a thing. It seems to f*ck people up quicker, as well. Had a great night, got back at...
It's a radio interview - listen to the host, he's compulsively cracking up :D

I was going to create this thread a while ago, but didn't get round to it - the recent delay that apparently shifts Ep2's release to winter highlights what's bothering me, though.
The first episode, announced early 2005, was out a year later. We're now looking at a year and a half gap between...
Post your ULTIMATE PICTURES! here! There are no criteria, except

The more ridiculous, bizarre, or pornographic, the better.
Begin!
I've been on a spate of novel reading recently. Now I need a new author!
Recommend me some books. They can be non-fictitious, as long as they're enjoyable/reasonably easy to read (ie A Short History of Nearly Everything etc, I get enough hardcore non-fic in my history degree :)). I was thinking...
I recently downgraded my connection with the provider for the halls I live in, and it turns out they've blocked steam traffic.
Is there any way around this? I don't particularly need to game online, but I would like to be able to login to steam, keep everything updated, and get new titles...
I've just cancelled my subscription to eMusic. The idea was, pay 8 quid a month and get 40 tracks that are yours to keep - really great, but their library wasn't so good. It had plenty of the older jazz, but didn't have a lot of the more modern material I'm interested in.
So! I need a new...
Well, Hillary Clinton has just thrown her hat into the ring...

My poor thumbs! On recommendation from a friend I've been checking out loads of them the past couple of days, SFII and the Alphas. I can just about dragon punch and fireball at will now, but playing on a keyboard it's a bitch getting the diagonals in for specials. Addictive as ****, and I'm...
In the Robin Walker interview gameinformer did recently, there was mention of an 'additional setting' for high-end gamers.
Does anyone else remember this? I didn't see anything new in the video options.
