SVN is pretty much the cross-industry standard for version control. We use SVN for web projects (I work in web design/development), and any project I've ever been involved with that has version control has also used SVN. TortoiseSVN has always been the client of choice.

You look a totally different person (in a good way).

I'm sure there'll eventually be an opportunity where you can get one and enjoy the good games that've come out for it all at once; I can see that depending on taste the PS3 might not be worth its current price, but there are definitely some seriously good gems. That's what I'm going to be doing with the 360 soon.

Great.
The original was a really stellar game and for some reason reminded me a lot of Broken Sword (aka Circle of Blood) in terms of overall feel, so I have high hopes for this.Really love the arctic theme — some fantastic potential for atmosphere. Hope a large portion of the game has that.

Wow, that $800m tax break is pretty sweet. Not exactly great when put up against $1.6b of debt, but still.
Although as Frie says, they're also inheriting a lot of debt from Midway: $70m.

As far as I'm aware these newer Core i7 motherboards work a bit differently to what we're used to. Instead of two identical sticks being optimal so you can run the RAM in dual channel, it's actually three identical sticks that's optimal and it similarly runs the three in parallel — very fast.
And while we're on that subject, IMO if he's building a new computer now he does want to be going down the Core i7 route. It's most definitely the leading technological marvel at the moment (~16-thread CPU), and if the last generation of CPUs taught us anything it's that Intel is on top of its game right now when it comes to delivering excellent cost/performance value.
There is an early adopter tax on Core i7 technology right now, but it's going to be with us for some years to come. If I were building now I'd base it around Intel and NVIDIA after what's been a very mediocre few years for both AMD and ATI. Golden boys of the enthusiast sector they certainly aren't anymore.

That trailer is just amazing. I think these guys deserve some serious respect for coming this far with such an ambitious project, and I sincerely hope it lives up to what is truly fantastic media.
Here's the YouTube version seeing as other mirrors are being absolutely battered right now:

I didn't even notice a Street Fighter 4 thread.
I'm waiting for the console release next year before I even think of getting excited about that, though. Not good for me otherwise.

Pretty awesome.
Having the best remixers in the game remixing the original soundtrack for the remake was a really clever move. Fresh yet nostalgically familiar!I've been visiting OCRemix for years and years watching it grow, and it's great to see that they've managed to accomplish something like this. Hopefully it'll inspire more people to get into remixing and ultimately composing.
Two of my favourite OCRemix tracks as of late are Super Mario World - Turning Terrors and Banjo-Kazooie - Malevolent Mansion.

Wow, that is really horrible. The fact there's a picture is really unsettling.
And I agree with the third paragraph: this blood is on Wal-Mart's hands.

Oh man, I didn't realise this was out on Blu-Ray. Still got the old tin edition, but I'll buy this too.

I will buy this game.

I like the look of this.

Seems remarkably unexciting from what I've read about it. Not sure if I'd ever use it to be honest, preferring to just go straight into games/etc rather than dick around in a virtual world.
It's a bit crazy how long it's been in the pipeline. Perhaps because they realise it's just not that good? For a while I thought it'd become vapourware.

[*:1vjby99r]Due to the permanent nature of the [/list]LinkedIn Group announcement, it's now been moved into the top menu.[*:1vjby99r]YouTube embeds are now using an experimental mode which uses a higher resolution video and stereo sound; unfortunately this currently doesn't allow you to seek any further than the amount of video that you've downloaded (ie: to skip to a part that hasn't downloaded yet). Hopefully Google will patch this ASAP so seeking is once again possible.

Oh man, I didn't realise Edge had given it 5/10. That's a pretty damning result because Edge carries a lot of respect/weight in the UK.
Wonder what they found so bad about it. Will have to pick it up this week.

One thing I do want to point out is that VGChartz is notorious for inaccuracies. The main reason for this is that VGChartz doesn't have access to worldwide data from all stores, and instead samples a small percentage of the stores in each country. They then use the amount of shipped (not sold) copies and stores per country to try and speculate what the overall count is.
Seeing as the game's not even been out for two weeks yet outside of the US, I think it's definitely too early to conclude that it's a commercial failure; I'd definitely wait until VGChartz can acquire more and more solid data (such as NPD numbers).
Also, it might be one of those slow burners that consistently sells tens of thousands every month, turning a profit overall. Could be enough to keep EA interested.
