@shoan I don't know, I think the mechanics of being incapacitated but still able to shoot/be revived is a bit different than TF2. But yeah, as far as the look of the maps, it has the same high contrast texture look as TF2.

I'd say try it out for the free weekend and see if it's worth it, I know I will. :D

@Monkey D Luffy Ahem, all I did was show that everything you said could be turned around easily enough.

And just an fyi, just because someone points out that fighting over platform is silly doesn't mean they endorse either platform.

But seeing as someone pissed in your cheerios I guess both of those points went flying out the window along with polite discourse.

@Monkey D Luffy. Why do PC users have to be so hostile when someone want to play games on their Mac?
Buy a damn life and quit arguing about the damn platform.

@royale - I'm one of those mystical people who don't run Xfire all the time even though I have it installed.

Also, 'somewhat accurate' statistics of a portion of the playerbase doesn't mean the truth is laid out in front of people... that means we get a pretty graph that doesn't show much of the big picture because of the selection bias due to the sample having to choose to install and run Xfire.

What's with the PS3 fanboy comments in most of the comments? It doesn't really matter whether or not the processor in the PS3 is "better" than the one in the 360. Even the notion that one is better than the other is subjective because they're both running different types of RISC processors with different specs, and that, on RISC platforms, program optimization play a huge role in getting better performance.

What really matters though is helping out in research that could benefit everyone. And for people to ignore this and focus on processing power means they are missing the point of Folding@Home. You could run it on a 486 doing tickets without deadlines, and it would be more helpful than not doing it at all.

Regarding the comments Moore made, about looking into it to see if there was any value; besides general PR BS, this could be looked at from another angle. After having to send in my 360 recently due to hardware failure, I would prefer Microsoft examine Folding@Home and see if it could be implemented without causing premature hardware failure.

Until the day I can leave my 360 on to do Folding@Home, I'll just have to relegate my PC rig to do it instead. ;)

This all seems like a good deal of FUD to me, and sounds like a bunch of the higher ups are more interested in the bottom line rather than continuing to produce a quality product. I subscribe to both GFW and EGM, and find them to be a better read than most "reliable" websites... Not to say I don't read those websites for comparisons sake, but the Internet in general has yet to totally replace print. Like Maxathon said, until I can get the Internet in the toilet on the cheap I'll be reupping my subscription.

Dead Rising is my favorite.

For all those bleeding hearts that have posted comments chastising Apple: the real blame lies solely on the Chinese government for having lousy labour laws as well as not enforcing the laws they have. Add onto that years of communist rule/ideology has put most of these workers in a rut they cannot pull themselves out of. To change this situation there either needs to be a revolution, or there needs to be a change in the way China does labour. Going after Foxconn and/or Apple will not solve this problem in the long term and will not stop this same problem from happening in the future.
