  1. @3DS:
    Regarding the bunch of titles, converting existing ones to 3Ds shouldn’t be too hard. Basically, render the scene two times, with a small displacement in position. That’s a minor change.

    @Sony to use serial keys and limited activation
    Keygens all the waaaay!!!
    As for limited activation, wtf?! Did they forgot the reaction when Bioshock did limited activation?
    Next thing is the Ubisoft DRM …

    @ EA Tampered With Infinity Ward
    You need much stronger proof that that. EA can claim that the e-mail account was used by somebody else.
    The only way e-mails stand as proof in court is if they’re digitally signed.
    Ok, the mail does spark controversy. But if somebody can prove that they’re not genuine, then Infinity Ward’s case is toast(ed).

    @Question of the week:
    If I plug in a CRT monitor and set it to 60Hz, I will definitely get some physical exertion … I mean I am pretty sure I’ll get muscular fever in my eyes 😛
