I have a 2014 Kia Sorento...previous car was a 2012 Kia Soul. Happy with my Sorento and I don't think it would be easy for me to go to a sedan but if I had the money I'd get a Tesla model S as a second car.

I'm hoping 400, guessing 450 but I'll accept 500 considering the hardware. even though there isn't a kinect in the package they are using GDDR5 which is expensive, plus more slightly more powerful silicon. we also don't hard drive sizes. I wonder if sony will do multiple SKU's.

Nope, the hardware is current gen and the software so far showed is current gen. wii tv is cool but is that a generational leap? I don't think so. second screen is cool in some instances but I don't think that's a generational leap either. I'm not saying it's a bad console but I very much believe that it's a current gen console. I think the software changes to the new ps4 alone feel like part of a new generation of how we will game.

I have an OnLive microconsole and the experience was actually pretty good, I played through War in the north on it and the warhammer gamer, both action games, without issues. Mind you I have a 90 down fiber connection at home so my situation is more ideal than most people. However I was rather impressed with how well it worked, I can't remember a single instance of feeling any kind of noticeable lag. However the games simply don't look as god as console or PC games. I tried it because I received a unit for free at an industry event and I went as far as purchasing the monthly subscription because I put OnLive in my office and gamed while working from home. I also have a high end gaming PC which is what I use primarily, and a PS3 and Vita.

Just wanted to add that while I didn't really experience lag that affected gameplay, switching back to playing the same games on PC I did notice it felt more responsive on PC. But that's to be expected.

Got it when I was 18 in NYC, that was 9 years ago. Now I'm married and have a wife and kid and bought my first car just this past March. in NYC you have to parallel park so I had a lot of practice doing that, it wasn't bad. Just make sure you do a lot of practice driving following the guidelines for your state. Don't ignore any signs or rules, even if that's what people normally do. Good luck

I think the Vita is great. I have an amazing gaming PC and a PS3 at home yet now as an adult with a 3.5 year old it's tough to find time to game in front of the tv. I find that I can still get my game on using handhelds like the Vita far more easily. It also allows me to game on train rides. It's a great device. There is definitely a place for it in my life.

It's awesome when I'm working from home and things aren't too crazy and having my daughter sit on my lap talking about the random things that 3 year olds talk about. But at the same time some days are rough with work and it's a bit frustrating being home because you feel bad "ignoring' your kid while you're working. They don't understand the concept of "work". But that's just about working from home, nothing AGAINST having kids, I think it's the most amazing thing ever. When my daughter was born my wife decided to take time off from work and go back to nursing school for a second degree and career change. It sucked....LOL. she's finally done with nursing school 3 and a half years later but luckily I have a great job that covers everything. Can't wait to get her back to work though so we can also buy a house.

Have kids, you won't regret it.

I have a three and a half year old daughter, it's the greatest experience of my life. It gets better the older the kid gets in my opinion. At least for most fathers I know as opposed to mothers who love the baby days.

I have very little gaming time, I game mostly while I'm working, luckily my job is flexible, I work plenty of hours from home, more than I do from the office. I also have a Vita that I play on. I'm primarily a PC gamer though I do have a PS3 also, just don't get much gaming time in front of the tv. I probably get in 1-5 a week of gaming time. I'd get more if I stayed up later but I usually leave for work at 5:30 in the morning and I also go to the gym about 5 days a week which takes up a lot of the free time I do have. I'm definitely playing games a lot less than I did before the baby, of course being married to a non-gamer means that from the moment we got married I was gaming less than I otherwise did. She understands though and bought me my Vita for my birthday.

I definitely feel like I've given up something, but on the other hand I've gained a great deal more. While I miss sitting there with final fantasy, etc. for hours and hours and loving it. The moments I spend with my daughter are so much more than I could have imagined they ever would be before I had her. I'm also raising her up geek, she loves star wars and always wants to play games.
