The latest Xbox Live downtime made me wonder, how dependable we are progressively becoming on the various media hubs like XBL, PSN, Steam and the internet in general.
Sure, on demand media is very convenient and I am more than willing to switch to a stream-based service like OnLive completely, but what if your purchased media or your photo albums on flickr or Picasa become unavailable for some reason?
Imagine you are planning a party with games, movies, music and suddenly your internet connection drops leaving you in the stone age.
Or even worse, what if your account gets hacked and all your expensive stuff is gone forever?

Splinter Cell fatigue
Added by LocoRocker on June 9, 2009

I have been a fan of the series from the very first game on and have played every Sam Fisher game since. Recently I started playing Splinter Cell: Double Agent and noticed that I am really not having fun playing it anymore. I still enjoy the concept of the modern ninja but the gameplay just hasn't evolved over time and is beginnig to feel stale and boring to me. I also couldn't care less about Sam Fisher. Sure, the thing with his daughter is tragic but the SC games never were strong on the narrative side, so I never began caring about any of the characters or the particular story arc.

I wonder if the upcoming Splinter Cell: Conviction will be able to change this. It seemed to have recieved a lot of positive feedback at E3.

RPGs on wheels

I just got back to playing Forza Motorsport 2 again and realised that pretty much all games of this type are RPGs at their core.
You race, earn cash and experience, invest that into better tunung parts, tackle tougher challenges, earn more cash, get a new ride, repeat.
I guess I enjoy the concept a lot.
There's nothing like the feeling you get when you finally get used to the handling of your freshly fine-tuned car and are able to hit that curve apex closer and closer to perfection on each lap.
