    It'd certainly play very well if it works well. Looks like it's based directly on the Ouendan series (Elite Beat Agents) for the Nintendo DS where the games are played with a stylu…

    I played with an old Asteroids Deluxe machine just last weekend! They have one at Barcade in Manhatten on West 24th. The vector display sits face up in the bottom of the cabinet, a…

    While this is true in the general case, The Coin is an extra card added to your hand at the beginning of the game and is never a part of your deck. It is purely beneficial.

    No longer the case. They started renting/selling 1080p content with (or perhaps before) the release of the 1080p Apple TV.

    The title at the time of jfaucett's comment was just "Ruby 2.0.0".

    This is exactly how okcupid's premium membership operates. You can always anonymously visit profiles, but unless you're a paid member, it'll no longer show you your visitors. Payin…

    I think the point is that the simple presence of a Like button tells Facebook that you've been there. You don't have to click it, you just have to load it. HN comment history is ac…

    Not entirely true. You can jailbreak the iPad 2 using http://jailbreak.me/ if you're running iOS 4.3.3. iOS 5 is still unavailable, and I wouldn't expect it to be available until t…

    I agree, there is. Stereoscopic 3D isn't an end-all solution, however, and this isn't just ordinary "old style 3D", either. Head-tracking 3D is still a pretty novel technique, addi…

    3D on a screen is always an illusion of some sort. The 3DS is just a different illusion (albeit a more technically involved one, for sure). It's not any more "3D" than this. Perspe…
