On Keyboard and Mouse support in First Person shooter games on the Playstation 3, SteelRush writes:

I see so many console junkies who don’t want to see mouse and keyboard because they know it affords and advantage. So following that logic, let’s take out steering wheel support for racing games, and joystick support for flight games, as they afford an unfair advantage.

All this crap about it requiring more skill to use a controller is simply that, crap. It’s a more difficult form of control for the genre. PC gaming is extremely expensive to keep up with, so quit telling PC gamers to stay on the PC unless you’d like to loan us $500 a year for upgrades.

All that is required to make EVERYONE happy, is to segregate the crowds online. It would let the PC migraters have their beloved control method, and would keep console junkies from getting owned. Maybe make it a server preference so there could be mixed and segregated servers. Offline, who cares how you control the game? Let people play how they want to play.

Well said

On “Installing the Zune…sucked” via Newsvine. Tom B. writes:

What, exactly, is the value proposition of the Zune?

Cheaper than the iPod? well….no.

Bigger capacity? ….No.

Bigger screen? Yea– but same number of pixels.

Wireless? So you can trade acid hip-hop with the little old lady on the bus?

Regarding “Zune Won’t Kill the iPod“:

The iPod will die when Apple fumbles the ball. There are no products, current or upcoming that stands a chance to one-up the iPod image.The iPod is so iconic, Apple does not even need to pay for product placement.

Zune may look good on paper, but it will never be received well by the masses. It does not require a superior product to win. Archos has been selling widescreen AV players while iPods were still black and white. Do you see many people holding their widescreen archos around, anywhere?

Baseball playoffs are here. This is about the only time I can watch baseball. Sadly, it seems to be same way for the NBA.

Regarding the “ESRB must play every game in its entirety says proposed legislation”

The ESRB should start to play fully through every game when Congress starts to read everything they sign into law.
