Why is WorldWide Telescope the best free program of its type?
Reasons why WWT is far better than Google Sky:
1. Immense data and imagery
2. Very easy to navigate and visually appealing
3. More advanced and is a great tool for astronomers and scientists alike
4. You can connect a telescope to it(!)
5. You can create and share virtual tours
6. WWT is faster and less "bulky feeling" client

Of course they have respect for Nintendo and Mario. The whole industry does. Clearly its an innocent, light-hearted complement in fact.
That said, this game is a genre-busting tour de force. And, based on all the reactions across the internet, everyone agrees.
This is going to be a run-away smash. No doubt about it. It looks fantastic, the gameplay mechanic is fabulous. Looks like Rare has exceeded all expectations yet again.
This is just a s...
If he had tried to play online, he might have mentioned how broken the GTAIV on PSN is.
I dont keep receipts for things that have serial numbers.
I know that the company *KNOWS* when it was manufactured, and therefore I do not need to prove the age of the device.
Sony is screwing its customers **YET AGAIN** and the usual Sony cheerleaders are here bending over backwards to apologize for them.
@4.1
Total nonsense. ebay didnt sell the console, Bob Smith sold the console. eBay would simply have nothing to do with it (except for putting the two in contact).
What your saying is that Sony's 1 Year Warranty is *LIMITED* to the first purchaser? That is a seriously anti-customer warranty.
Now, that may or may not be the case, but if it *IS* -- than people should **NEVER** buy a used PS3 because Sony wont honour its warranties.
...
Sony screws its customers.
Micsrosoft takes care of its customers.
@1.2
No its not "policy world-wide" you idiot.
THE DEVICE has a serial number. It is INDISPUTABLE that the console is within the warranty period.
The bill of sale means nothing, the man is in posession of his own device -- he doesnt have to prove that he _DIDNT_ steal it.
Thats pure bollocks.
And, just as the VoiceofReason says, this is **EXACTLY** how sony acted when PS2s were breaking all over the place. ...
And yet again, the Sony cheerleaders are here to apologize for sony.
Face it, sony is screwing this guy over and told him to fcuk off.
That is Sony's customer "service" and always has been.
And to all the arm-chair lawyers here saying "its standard to refuse warranty without a bill of sale" that is just, 100% laughable.
its not "standard" -- a bill of sale's purpose is to prove the time of purchase, but...
Microsoft's support FIXES every failed console FOR FREE.
When my 3 PS2s broke -- SONY refused to do *anything* about it.
Microsoft's customer loyalty is VASTLY better than Sony. Sony is NOTORIOUS for being anti-customer on every level from the formats / form-factors they choose to their direct customer service.
Sony is, and always has been the worst company in the market.
When MS has a problem they admit it, fix it and take care of ...
No issues with Mass Effect. Sorry, your FUD is false.
Oh, and Mass Effect is awesome.
Read post #20 above you.
See, this is *NOT* a "rumour" -- it is baseless, made up garbage -- about both Halo Wars and Mass Effect 2.
This loser "XboxEvolved" is just looking to send traffic to his blog -- he doesnt have any inside "rumour". He submitted a link to his own blog FFS.
He just made the entire thing up from thin air.
And, because N4G's over-run by the Sony Cheerleader brigade -- and the moder...

Mass Effect's showing at E3 2006 was well received and resulted in the game winning several awards during the expo, including the Game Critics Awards' Best Role-Playing Game.[54]

Its not a *RUMOUR*. Its baseless, unsourced, uninformed, made-up blog post.
Rumours come from leaks inside the industry, this is just one person writing nonsense to rile up the fanboys to get traffic to his worthless website.
This is made up garbage from a worthless site looking for traffic.
It seems that there are two standards for stories on N4G: Only Postive Sony news gets approved, and all negative MSFT stories (in not just games, but every bullshit story about Vista or other products) gets approved.

Fcuk N4G.
By the looks of the guideline-violating reports, this article strikes a cord with the gaggle of sony cheerleaders.
Its a shame, but the article is very clear in its message and provides good insight. The point is that Sony has made many promises that they are not delivering on.
Its a shame that people refuse to take off their rosey coloured glasses and be objective about the situation.
Gears of War 2 will be the biggest selling First Party title of 2008.
4 Survivors vs 4 Zombies == Epic Victory.
Day one purchase by any real gamer.

Age of Conan is the break-out challenger to WoW everyone has been waiting for.
I have a family member in the Beta, and he has said it is better than EQ (he quit that a long time ago) and WoW (plays that now). He's played most MMORPGs, and said that Age of Conan is just so fresh and new, it plays great, the mood and setting are terrific, the graphics are fantastic and he thinks its the next big MMMORPG.
By the looks of it, everyone seems to agree.
