Nothing else to add here, not going into the forums...just you watch, Wii fans! SFIV > Hamburger and Wii.
For those of you that are actively flagging inappropriate threads, don't worry about your karma point count for now. We are monitoring point levels and adjusting them down as necessary for people who are gaining bad karma by flagging things that needed to be flagged.
This is new for all of us, but we don't want you guys to feel like you're getting punished for reporting spam or porn or other offensive material or bad posts with the new Flag button. This isn't to say you can just flag with impunity - if you're found to be abusing the system by flagging posts that shouldn't be, then we will just let the karma system do it's job and you will soon find yourself unable to flag anymore until your points decay back below five at the rate of one per day.
Remember, the system is only going to work if everyone uses it! If you have any questions or have a problem with your karma, please contact a moderator and we'll help you out.
I stopped into the Subway on Kearny today for a delicious BMT on wheat for lunch, and I happened to overhear the dude in front of me ordering his sandwich. Jalapeno on sourdough. That's it...no mustard, no other veggies, just jalapenos piled high on a foot long sourdough roll. He paid his $5 and was on his way.
I was dumbfounded. I like me some jalapenos on my sandwiches, but damn. I'm thinking it had to be for a practical joke or something, but you never really know, I guess.
What is the most disgusting sandwich you have ever seen someone eat or order at a restaurant?
Hey everyone, head on over to the front page of Giant Bomb (at the bottom) to take a look at Atheistium's comprehensive review of F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin.
For the next few days, Giant Bomb user Temperance will have his excellent review of Legacy of Ys: Books I & II for the Nintendo DS featured on the front page. At any time, just go to the front page of GB and scroll all the way down to the bottom to see the current featured review.
...and lost 120 BP. I feel like I should just turn in my copy of SFIV and never speak of this again.
Further confirmation of the rumored microtransaction-based fee structure for SWTOR was recently posted on Electronic Arts' careers page. In the listing for the Customer Service Director position at Bioware Austin, one of the key qualifications is to have "online gaming with micro transaction experise." It looks like this is just more proof that the upcoming Star Wars MMO will be at least partially microtransaction-based. It remains to be seen what the fee structure for this highly anticipated game will be and whether it will be fully or just partially microtransaction-based, but as a major Star Wars geek, I still can't wait to play it.
Ryan discussed the possibility of EA's upcoming MMO Star Wars: The Old Republic being microtransaction-based in his 1-900-THE-FRCE article posted back in December. Here are the key points from his writeup:
According to EA CEO John Riccitiello, the Old Republic publisher is considering a microtransaction-based model for the upcoming Star Wars MMO, though no further specifics were given. Based on what I've seen of The Old Republic's colorful, somewhat cartoony art style, I've had a sneaking suspicion that they were going more casual than the usual MMO, and an incremental pricing model like this would support such a theory. EA PR has since chalked up these quotes as a “misunderstanding,” though I'm not sure how one misinterprets a quote like this.
Other initiatives we've announced, for example [the] Star Wars online MMO, are mid-session games which are microtransaction-based. You'll be hearing more about those in the February [conference] call.
