Quote from JetsetlemmingWhere did you hear that Portal 2 would be $60 instead of $50 on PC?
Also lol the concept that PC gamers would be upset by their copies of Portal 2 not coming with a free PC copy of Portal 2, unlike that fancy pants PS3 version.
I can't say for sure about the US version, but UK sites seem to be listing it at £35-£40 atm which is about the launch price of many console games (although not always, sometimes it's £45).
Lots of shots here:

Looks quite cool IMO. I don't know why you people insist on regularly looking at production shots of movies that've barely entered shooting and start saying they look bad. 
Quote from Senturai don't think it was clear in teh first link, but even if you buy portal on pc, you can unlock it on the ps3 for free.http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/vi ... ice-of-One
I don't think that's right. The PS3 version of Portal 2 comes on Blu-ray, not through PSN. Without a physical copy of the game you won't be playing it on your PS3, and that isn't included in the PC version. The Escapist article even says that PC and 360 owners get significantly less content than PS3 owners (ie: no second copy).
Considering the PC version is roughly the same full-retail price as the PS3 version (£40/$60), it would appear getting the PS3 copy is the no-brainer. An interesting step towards cross-platform games being purchased independently of platform. 
I think it was more like 01 when he forgot his people. 
Oh man, oh man, oh man — it's threeboy! Let me get my... oh my god. Where's my autograph book?!?!?!?!
Happy birthday.
Yes, I rarely find a woman who might as well be a man in a woman's body particularly attractive. 
God yes. Typecast or what?
So many awesome memories in this thread. I remember lots of Atari/Amiga games but have no idea what they were called. The earliest I remember has to be this beauty though:

I think HD 3D porn is the natural conclusion of this technology. 
Ah, awesome. I knew the cameras were something to do with the 3D, guess my speculation was a bit off though.
My colleague has just been telling me about Google's new version of Android which is targeted at tablets. Have to admit that this fucker is giving the iPad a run for its money and I'm finding myself quite tempted. And it has Flash, so Flash games! Woo!

The first tablet to be using this OS will be Motorola's Xoom which itself looks rather superb:

But of course the real point here is Google's tablet OS, which is going to pretty much revolutionise the tablet market just like it's already revolutionised the phone market (almost every phone manufacturer now uses Android if you missed that).
Haha. I'm looking in the direction of his house now for signs of a power cut.
Quote from SkjalgHe'll still have to wait 3~4, maybe 5 months (max) before he can get this new shiny ipad (and thats IF apple stays with their time schedule).Or he can enjoy his ipad right now, and sell it in 6 months and purchase this new shiny one if it really is that much better
It's most likely going to be early April, but yes there'll be a wait. He said he's waited a good while already though, and I know in the same situation I'd say it's worth waiting that bit longer in order to get a more refined product — especially when it's something that costs more than many people spend on first cars. Even if he were happy with the original iPad, Apple tends to knock prices of earlier hardware down massively when a successor comes out — with very little price reduction until then.
Just throwing the notion out as he's most probably still in the return/refund window. Not going to criticise the decision that's made, maybe he has more disposable money than poor souls like myself.
then wait until next spring and you'll have another one with more upgrades. and i really don't need yet another thing with a camera on it (i heard 3DS will have three cameras, what the hell?). i've had the first iphone since release and still don't see any reason to upgrade it. ]
The 3DS uses cameras to make the goggle-less 3D work AFAIK. They track your eyes and stuff, adjusting the picture appropriately.
As for the iPad, I'm not one for religiously getting every new iteration of hardware but I have to agree that your timing is remarkably bad. It's extremely likely that the iPad 2 is going to be announced within days, and the new model will be out in April. Apple tends to keep a very strict annual schedule (notice that every single iPhone has had a June/July release) so these rumours will almost certainly pan out.
I mean it's your money, but I'd personally wait a month or so if I were in the market for a iPad due to the likely inclusion of a 'retina' display (ie: double the resolution), as I personally think the original iPad's screen is significantly inferior to the iPhone 4's when it comes to sharpness, vibrancy, etc. In fact the iPhone 4 and the iPad have almost the same resolution.
It's most probably not too late to return it, so you know...
Facetime uses wi-fi so as long as the web connection is sound there should be no lag.
Oh Klein, you have come so far from iNvasion Works.
Congratulations!
All seems pretty cool. Some of those publisher catalogue pack things seem to be excellent value.
The facial technology is incredible, but I have to say just about everything else leaves me cold. The trailer seemed particularly bad and cliched, practically convincing me to not get the game. The visually also seem decidedly average besides the faces, to the point where the faces don't actually match. 
Looking forward to seeing this technology in more compelling games up my street, though!
I think by this point it's kind of a given that the 360 and PS3 are pretty much on equal ground when it comes to technical capabilities. Each has its own small quirks, but if a game is engineered properly the results are fairly consistent across both platforms.
