@chadmoore:

My thoughts exactly. Why would the more expensive models be limited to interlaced video?
Thanks for the heads up. Nero was always one of my favorite software bundles for burning discs in Windows.

By the way, "Nero 8 will cost $100 if you buy the retail box. Or you can save $80 by downloading it from Nero's website."? I think you mean that downloading will cost $80, not save $80 -- I wish!
All right, now 22.1% of the 360's good games will be shooters!

I've never been a fan of the guy's movies, but I have to admit I got a nice big smile seeing his 'Cannibal Holocaust' t-shirt. Gotta love it!
I go through swings every few months when deciding my top five games of all time, but number one remains constant: Chrono Trigger.

Great story, 2D game play that I can actually comprehend (sorry, my aging brain is having issues with all these darn complex 3D environments), beautiful music, and a fighting system that still hasn't gotten old for me, all add up to my all-time favorite game.

Just don't play the PlayStation re-release included in Final Fantasy Chronicles! The cut scenes are all fine and dandy, but the load times are just unbearable! Get the original SNES cart or, heck, download a ROM. Why isn't this game on Wii's Virtual Console or remade for DS yet?!

Rounding out the top ten, in alphabetical order:
2. Chrono Cross
3. Final Fantasy VII
4. Final Fantasy Tactics
5. Half-Life 2
6. The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
7. The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures
8. Marvel vs. Capcom 2
9. Ninja Gaiden (Xbox)
10. Super Mario World
One of the most powerful features of Twitter is its ability to be updated via text messaging. This allows me to Tweet all the random little things that happen while I'm out.

Meanwhile, my absolute favorite feature of Twitteriffic 2.0 is the new feature that allows it to update your away message in iChat, Skype and Adium. This is incredible offers a much more intuitive away message for my buddies than just a link to my Twitter page.

However, why haven't these two features been combined? Twitteriffic only updates my Adium status when I post from Twitteriffic, it doesn't change if I post a Tweet from my cell phone or the web.

IconFactory, you've made a product here that blows everything else out of the water. Add this one feature and you'd have a perfect product in my opinion.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I am looking for a device that will stream sound from one source to several recipients. For example, I want to stream sound from my TV or stereo to my phone or MP3 player that has radio and Bluetooth capabilities. I have looked into radio transmitters and they seem like a decent choice, but I can't find one that uses external power (USB or from the plug) and I would want one with a transmit range of around 50 meters. Thanks!"
