Sony sucker-punches Xbox on price, specs, DRM-free gaming

Re: It was bound to happen - somebody LISTENED to CUSTOMERS...

To be fair, M$ used to do a much better job of trying to make what users wanted, but then they started getting their ass handed to them by Apple. So they took a page from Jobs' playbook and started treating users like idiot sheep and telling them what they wanted. Unfortunately for M$, Apple already has the sheep market cornered. While it sounds like Sony is doing a better job this console cycle so far, I have very little faith in them as a company. I'll be sticking to my PC for gaming, and not because the games will look and run better (which they will) but because I want control over my gaming experience. Of course I'll still need to stay away from companies like EA which are trying to control the PC.

Thumb Down

Hilarious

I can understand trying to get actual rape / abuse groups shut down. But I looked through the first 20 or so example found on the movement's site:

And they are hilarious. This is just pure PC bull. While the type of humor may not be for everyone, it certainly shouldn't be banned. Campaigns like this trivialize ACTUAL rape and abuse.
