Share This- Why Health Advice on Oprah Could Make You Sick | Newsweek Health | Newsweek...
Jun 5, 12:26pm (13 reviews) health, quackery, cultism, pseudoscience http://www.newsweek.com/id/200025- Finally, someone in the mainstream media is calling Oprah on regularly endorsing potentially-dangerous pseudo-science. It's sad that someone so gullible is so influential in the world.
Share This- Bethesda talks about DRM and Fallout 3 - TechSpot News
Oct 2, 2008 5:25pm  (1 review) drm, gaming, bethesda, fallout http://www.techspot.com/news/31895-bethe...- Kudos to Bethesda on not including DRM in Fallout 3! I may purchase the more expensive Collector's Edition simply to support this decision.
Edit.... Bethesda included SecuROM, but ONLY in the launcher, and ONLY as a disc check. Launch the game directly (Fallout3.exe, not Fallout3Launcher.exe), and there's no DRM. So I take back about 20% of my "kudos." I still applaud their decision not to adopt draconian DRM methods.
Share This- SecuROM
Oct 1, 2008 5:45pm (1 review) windows, copy-protection, gaming, securom http://www.securom.com/message.asp?m=mod...- SecuROM sucks, in every manner possible. The fact that it refuses to let games run when ProcessExplorer is running is just another black mark against this commercially-backed MalWare.

Personally, I'm most excited about Bionic Commando Rearmed, due out some time this month (July), which is supposed to be a scene-for-scene remake of the NES classic, one of my favorite games of all time.

Share This- FilePlanet: Free PC Games, Downloads, Mods, Demos, Patches &Maps
May 24, 2008 3:12pm (53 reviews) http://www.fileplanet.com/- Fileplanet forces you to get an account (for which they take in your birthdate and zip code) in order to wait 30 minutes in a queue to download a file that's available in ten other places. To make matters worse, their download system uses an ActiveX control, and therefore fails for everyone who is not using Internet Explorer. Big thumbs down for File Planet.
