Rangelands are shrublands, woodlands, wetlands, and deserts that are grazed by domestic livestock or wild animals. Types of rangelands include tallgrass and shortgrass prairies, desert grasslands and shrublands, woodlands, savannas, chaparrals, steppes, and tundras. Rangelands do not include barren desert, farmland, closed canopy forests, or land covered by solid rock, concrete and/or glaciers.
Rangelands are distinguished from pasture lands because they grow primarily native vegetation, rather than plants established by humans. Rangelands are also managed principally with extensive practices such as managed livestock grazing and prescribed fire rather than more intensive agricultural practices of seeding, irrigation, and the use of fertilizers.
Grazing is an important use of rangelands but the term "rangeland" is not synonymous with "grazinglands". There are areas of rangeland that are not grazed and there are grazed areas that are not rangelands. Livestock grazing can be used to manage rangelands by harvesting forage to produce livestock, changing plant composition or reducing fuel loads.
Fire is also an important regulator of range vegetation, whether set by humans or resulting from lightning. Fires tend to reduce the abundance of woody plants and promote herbaceous plants including grasses, forbs, and grass-like plants. The suppression or reduction of periodic wildfires from desert shrublands, savannas, or woodlands frequently invites the dominance of trees and shrubs to the near exclusion of grasses and forbs.[1]
Types of rangeland[edit]
Prairies are considered part of the temperate grasslands, savannas and shrublands biome by ecologists, based on similar temperate climates, moderate rainfall, and grasses, herbs, and shrubs, rather than trees, as the dominant vegetation type. Temperate grassland regions include the Pampas of Argentina, and the steppes of Eurasia.
Grasslands are areas where the vegetation is dominated by grasses (Poaceae) and other herbaceous (non-woody) plants (forbs). However, sedge (Cyperaceae) and rush (Juncaceae) families can also be found. Grasslands occur naturally on all continents except Antarctica. In temperate latitudes, such as northwest Europe and the Great Plains and California in North America, native grasslands are dominated by perennial bunch grass species, whereas in warmer climates annual species form a greater component of the vegetation.[2]
Steppe, in physical geography, refers to a biome region characterized by grassland plain without trees apart from those near rivers and lakes. The prairie (especially the shortgrass and mixed prairie) is an example of a steppe, though it is not usually called such. It may be semi-desert, or covered with grass or shrubs or both, depending on the season and latitude. The term is also used to denote the climate encountered in regions too dry to support a forest, but not dry enough to be a desert.
Pampas are the fertile South American lowlands that include the Argentine provinces of Buenos Aires, La Pampa, Santa Fe, Entre Ríos and Córdoba, most of Uruguay, and the State of Rio Grande do Sul, in the southernmost end of Brazil covering more than 750,000 km2 (289,577 sq mi). These vast plains are only interrupted by the low Ventana and Tandil hills near Bahía Blanca and Tandil (Argentina), with a height of 1,300 m (4,265 ft) and 500 m (1,640 ft) respectively. The climate is mild, with precipitation of 600 mm (23.6 in) to 1,200 mm (47.2 in), more or less evenly distributed through the year, making the soils appropriate for agriculture. This area is also one of the distinct physiography provinces of the larger Paraná-Paraguay Plain division. These plains contain unique wildlife because of the different terrains around it. Some of this wildlife includes the rhea, the badger, and the prairie chicken.
Shrubland is a plant community characterized by vegetation dominated by shrubs, often also including grasses, herbs, and geophytes. Shrubland may either occur naturally or be the result of human activity.[3] It may be the mature vegetation type in a particular region and remain stable over time, or a transitional community that occurs temporarily as the result of a disturbance, such as fire. A stable state may be maintained by regular natural disturbance such as fire or browsing. Shrubland may be unsuitable for human habitation because of the danger of fire. The term "shrubland" was first coined in 1903.[4]
Woodland is a low-density forest forming open habitats with plenty of sunlight and limited shade. Woodlands may support an understory of shrubs and herbaceous plants including grasses. Woodland may form a transition to shrubland under drier conditions or during early stages of primary or secondary succession. Higher densities and areas of trees, with largely closed canopy, provide extensive and nearly continuous shade are referred to as forest.
Savanna is a grassland ecosystem characterized by the trees being sufficiently small or widely spaced so that the canopy does not close. The open canopy allows sufficient light to reach the ground to support an unbroken herbaceous layer consisting primarily of C4 grasses.[5]
Desert is a landscape or region that receives an extremely low amount of precipitation, defined as areas with an average annual precipitation of less than 250 millimetres (10 in) per year,[6][7] or as areas where more water is lost by evapotranspiration than falls as precipitation.[8] In the Köppen climate classification system, deserts are classed as BWh (hot desert) or BWk (temperate desert). In the Thornthwaite climate classification system, deserts would be classified as arid megathermal climates.[9][10]
Tundra is a biome where the tree growth is hindered by low temperatures and short growing seasons. The term tundra comes through Russian тундра from the Kildin Sami word tūndâr "uplands," "treeless mountain tract."[11] There are three types of tundra: Arctic tundra,[12] alpine tundra,[12] and Antarctic tundra[13] In tundra, the vegetation is composed of dwarf shrubs, sedges and grasses, mosses, and lichens. Scattered trees grow in some tundra. The ecotone (or ecological boundary region) between the tundra and the forest is known as the tree line or timberline.
North American rangelands[edit]
Rangeland is a prominent feature of rural Canada. A provincial jurisdiction, administration and policy regarding range use varies across the country. Like many Commonwealth countries, public tenures on crown land for the purpose of range activities is common in geographically compatible areas. Reconciling the economic needs of ranchers and the need for environmental conservation is one of the primary themes in modern range discourse.
Certain rangelands are preserved as provincially-protected areas similar to parks, others are managed as community resources. For example, in Alberta since 2003 there has been legistation allowing the creation of "Heritage Rangelands" within the parks system.[14] As of 2012 there were 2 heritage rangelands and 6 proposed future heritage rangelands run by Alberta Parks.[15] There are also 32 provincial grazing reserves located throughout Alberta administered as public lands by Alberta Sustainable Resource Development.[16] The federal government also owned several "Community Pastures" in Western Canada that were reclaimed lands suffering erosion during the 1930s. As of 2012 all of the community pastures are being closed or transferred the provinces.[17]
United States[edit]
Of the land within the United States borders, 36% is considered rangelands. The western side of the United States is 53% rangeland.[18] Around 399 million acres (1,610,000 km²) of rangeland are privately owned. The Bureau of Land Management manages about 167 million acres (676,000 km²) of publicly owned rangeland, with the United States Forest Service managing approximately 95 million acres (380,000 km²) more. Ranchers may lease portions of this public rangeland and pay a fee based on the number and type of livestock and the period for which they are on the land.
Historically much of the land in the western United States was used for grazing and much of some states still is. In many of those states, such as Arizona, an open-range law applies which requires a land owner to fence cattle out rather than in; thus cattle are theoretically allowed to roam free. In modern times open-range laws can conflict with urban development as occasional stray cows, bulls, or even herds wander into subdivisions or onto highways.[19]

World's rangelands[edit]
The different types of rangeland come together to form about 70% (excluding Antarctica) of the Earth's surface.
About 75% of Australia's land mass is Rangeland.[20] 53 of Australia's 85 bioregions have rangelands. In Western Australia, rangelands cover about 87% of the state's 2.5 million square kilometres.[20] Australian Rangelands support significant parts of the nation's economy, including Australia's valuable mining industry ($12 billion/yr), tourism ($2 billion/yr), pastoralism ($5.5 billion/yr – cattle $4.4 billion & sheep $1 billion).[20] Australia's rangelands include a diverse group of relatively undisturbed ecosysterms such as; tropical savannas, woodlands, shrublands, grasslands and deserts.[20] Rangelands in Australia cover low rainfall and variable climates which include; arid semi arid and seasonally high rainfall areas.[20]
Australian rangelands are important in; biodiversity, income, social and cultural heritage, sub-artesian water sources and major river systems, clean and green food and fiber production, and carbon storage. Rangelands contain a wealth of biodiversity including a total of 1800 types of plants and 605 vertebrate animals currently identified.[20] Rangelands are managed by Australia's Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry (DAFF) and the ESRM Programs on the local level [20]
South America[edit]
Rangelands in South America are located in regions with climate ranging from arid to sub-humid. Annual precipitation in these areas ranges from approximately 150 to 1500 mm (6–60 inches). Within South America, rangelands cover about 33% of the total land area. South American rangelands include; grasslands, shrublands, savannas,and hot and cold deserts. Rangelands in South America exclude hyperarid deserts. Examples of the South American rangelands include the; Patagonian Steppe, the Monte, the Pampas, the "Lianos" or "Cerrado," the "Chaco" and the "Caatinga." The change in the intensity and location of tropical thunderstorms and other weather patterns is the driving force in the climates of southern South America.
In Kenya, rangelands make up for 85% of the land surface area,and are largely inhabited by nomadic pastoralists who are largely dependent on livestock. This movement often brings along an incursion of different diseases with the common one being the rinderpest virus in the Kenyan wildlife population from the Somalian ecosystem.
In the past, rangelands in western China supported a pastoral economy and large wildlife populations. Now the rangelands have shrunk due to population growth, economic, government, and social factors. Rangeland types in China include; Semi-desert, Dry Alpine Grasslands, Alpine Dwarf Shrub, Wetland types.
Uses of rangeland[edit]
Rangelands produce a wide variety of goods and services desired by society, including livestock forage (Grazing), wildlife habitat, water, mineral resources, wood products, wildland recreation, open space and natural beauty. The geographic extent and many important resources of rangelands make their proper use and management vitally important to people everywhere.[18]

I started hooping last year and still am not all that great...though better than just plain waist hooping at least!! Back in March-April I decided that since there wasn't a whole lot going on hooping-wise in the Fort Worth area that I would start a hooping group on Facebook to see if there were others out there who just loved to hoop and wanted to have regular FREE hoopjams with no agenda to sell anything or teach classes or whatever. Funny thing is the exact same weekend another lady started her own group on Facebook as well. As far as I know our two groups are the only ones (at least on this side of the metroplex) for planning out always free and regular hoopjams...and now that she has moved to a different state her group hasn't had much activity.
All that to say...my group is still here and ready to jump back into regular weekly jams. The Friday before Mother's Day ended up being our last Friday afternoon hoopjam...but as of this Thursday evening we are starting up weekly evening hoopjams in Saginaw...just outside Loop 820. If you want to come join us, please check out the group...http://www.facebook.com/home.php?sk=group_132003640202155&ap=1
Hope to see some of you out hooping with us!!
Hello Julie, I know this post is a year old, however, I'm new here and new to hooping. I would be interested in having a weekly group meetup. Thursday evenings as of now are not free, but most every other day of the week I could meet somewhere. I noticed you mentioned close to Saginaw and Loop 820, this would and could work for me as I live within minutes to there.
Let me know if you are interested, and we can work out the details and schedules.

New Beginnings, Familiar Surroundings This School Year
For some, the first day of school was a return to the familiar, for others, it's an fresh and exciting new beginning.
In both scenerios, there is pressure to be the best school possible.
95 percent of the teachers and even the principal of evergreen elementary school in ocala are new, not to teaching, but to the school itself this year.
That's because Evergreen failed to meet strict requirements under "no child left behind" for several years,
This year principal Cassandra Boston says the plan is to get parents involved and to focus on helping students who need it.
"I have a job to do at Evergreen, I know it's a challenge and today we're having a great day and I know we'll get to those days that we'll be a little tougher than today."
At another school across the city, it's a completely different scenerio, but the pressure's on to maintain.
Ward Highlands Elementary has earned an "A" grade every year for 10 years.
They've only added one new teacher this year, something Principal Gary Smallridge says is really unusual.
Principal Gary Smallridge is new to Ward Highlands and says he's eager to become part of the closely knit group.

Darshit over at his Hindi film blog Dunkdaft, has developed this (good) habit of taking us back in time when Lagaan Week comes around. But before you get to his Lagaan Week entry for 2011, which describes his sheer joy of watching this film in an Indian cinema-turned-cricket stadium, let's briefly note his previous posts I am positive you will agree every fan of the film will cherish. Please join me in thanking him for bringing us these great posts by visiting his blog and commenting there. This stuff takes an awful lot of commitment, and it takes a Lagaaniac to appreciate that!
Vijay Vilas Palace in Mandvi, a remote area in Kutch in the Indian state of Gujarat, served as the site for the quarters of the commanding officer of Champaner in Lagaan. From there, we are gifted an excellent great picture essay at this link, in which he ties his beautiful photographs of the exterior and interior of the palace, with some specific references to scenes in and around it in the film. The post is complete with an obvious connection to Lagaan from the gates to the palace.
There are also some fantastic shots of the former Champaner!
In his Lagaan Week entry from last year -- What a Climax (at this link) -- he reminds us, among many other things, of how the film starts with a shot of Bhuvan's mom Yashodamaai (Suhasini Mulay) despairingly looking skyward for clouds, and ends with a shot of rain touching her feet.
And in this year's entry, he shares with us his Lagaan story. What's yours? Head over to discuss!

This paper wishes to address the nature of embodied understanding and how such considerations may clarify the purpose and path of phenomenologically-oriented qualitative research. It proceeds by developing some foundational thoughts about what is involved in the kind of understanding that is experientially and qualitatively relevant. As such, particular themes from Husserl, Heidegger and Gadamer are lifted out before gathering these themes to settle on the work of Eugene Gendlin. The paper concludes with a consideration of how such an emphasis on embodied understanding may re-interpret the tasks of phenomenologically-oriented qualitative research.

Keywords: | distributed model checking; cycle detection |
The fair cycle detection problem is at the heart of both LTL and fair CTL model checking. This paper presents a new distributed scalable algorithm for explicit fair cycle detection. Our method combines the simplicity of the distribution of explicitly presented data structure and the features of symbolic algorithm allowing for an efficient parallelisation. If a fair cycle (i.e. counterexample) is detected, then the algorithm produces a cycle, which is in general shorter than that produced by depth-first search based algorithms. Experimental results confirm that our approach outperforms that based on a direct implementation of the best sequential algorithm.

CSU-Pueblo football will land Columbine's McDondle, Regis' Neal on Signing Day
Posted By Neil Devlin On January 29, 2014 @ 12:40 pm In Class 5A,Football,Recruiting | Comments Disabled
At the very least, Columbine's Bernard McDondle and Regis Jesuit's Grant Neal have this in common — both have committed to CSU-Pueblo football.
The two seniors will sign with the southern-area program next week, on National Signing Day.
McDondle had a brilliant career. The durable running back helped the Rebels to the Class 5A state championship as a sophomore. All told, he rushed for 4,654 yards and 57 touchdowns. As a senior, he had 1,754 yards and 25 TDs, and he was a three-time All-Colorado selection by The Denver Post. The Rebels were 10-2 in 2013.
He will join his older brother, Cameron, also a running back, at CSU-Pueblo.
As for the Raiders' Neal, 5-foot-10, 220 pounds, he was a running back-linebacker who compiled 747 yards rushing, 11 TDs and zero fumbles.
He was first team all-Continental League on both sides. The Raiders finished 9-2.
"It just felt like a good fit academically," Neal said, "and … I felt wanted and cared for. They have a really rich winning tradition."
Neal said he is still deciding whether to compete in both wrestling and football at the next level. He won the 2013 5A state title at 195 pounds. He also had offers from Adams State, Fort Hays State, Fort Lewis and Western State.

Mechatronics is the synergistic combination of mechanical engineering ("mecha" for mechanisms), electronic engineering ("tronics" for electronics), and software engineering. The purpose of this interdisciplinary engineering field is the study of automata from an engineering perspective and serves the purposes of controlling advanced hybrid-systems such as production systems, synergy-drives, planetary-rovers, automotive subsystems such as anti-block system, spin-assist and every day equipment such as autofocus cameras, video, hard disks, cd-players, washing machines, lego-matics etc.
It is centred on mechanics, electronics and computing which, combined, make possible the generation of simpler, more economical, reliable and versatile systems.
The word "mechatronics" was first coined by a senior engineer of a Japanese company, Yaskawa, in 1969.

tendance politique parlementaire (fr)[Classe]
tendance politique de droite (fr)[termes liés]
tendance politique classée au centre (fr)[termes liés]
centre right (n.)↕
The centre-right also referred to as the moderate right, describes adherence to views whose views leaning to the right but close to the centre on the left-right political spectrum. The centre-right involves the acceptance of a degree of hierarchy in society.[1] The centre right claims that inferior quality behaviour, such as laziness and decadence, will lead people to inferior situations in comparison to others.[2] The contemporary centre right, unlike the far-right, usually claims that this is not innate and that people can end their behavioural inferiority through changing their habits and choices of behaviour.[3] There was a shift in attitude of the Western world towards aristocracy from the 1830s to the 1880s, with the decline of influence of aristocracy and the rise of capitalism and the rise of influence of middle-class bourgeoisie.[4] This general economic shift towards capitalism affected moderate right movements such as the British Conservative Party that responded by shifting away from being supportive of the traditions of aristocracy to being supportive of capitalism.[5]
The International Democrat Union, an alliance of centrist to centre-right political parties, including the British Conservative Party, the Republican Party of the United States, the Liberal Democratic Party of Japan, Christian democratic parties, amongst others across the world, is committed to the principles that "democratic societies provide individuals throughout the world with the best conditions for political liberty, personal freedom, equality of opportunity and economic development under the rule of law; and therefore being committed to advancing the social and political values on which democratic societies are founded, including the basic personal freedoms and human rights, as defined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights; in particular, the right of free speech, organisation, assembly and non-violent dissent; the right to free elections and the freedom to organise effective parliamentary opposition to government; the right to a free and independent media; the right to religious belief; equality before the law; and individual opportunity and prosperity".[6]
Contents |
The prominent inspiration for the centre-right, especially in Britain, was the traditionalist conservatism of Edmund Burke.[7] Burke's traditionalist conservatism was more moderate than the continental conservatism developed by Joseph De Maistre in France, that upon experiencing the French Revolution completely denounced the status quo that existed immediately prior to the revolution (unlike Burke) and de Maistre sought a reactionary counter-revolution that would dismantle all modern society and return it to a strictly religious-based society.[8] While Burke condemned the French Revolution, he had supported the American Revolution that he viewed as being a conservative revolution.[9] Burke claimed that the Americans revolted for the same reason as the English had during the Glorious Revolution, in both cases a monarch had overstepped the boundaries of his duties.[10] Burke claimed that the American Revolution was justified because King George III had overstepped his customary rights by imposing taxes on the American colonists without their consent.[11] Burke opposed the French Revolution because he opposed its anti-traditionalism and its use of abstract ideas, such as the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen and its universal egalitarianism that Burke rebuked by claiming that it effectively endorsed "hairdressers" being able to be politicians.[12]
In Britain, the traditionalist conservative movement was represented in the British Conservative Party.[13] Conservative British Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli sought to address social problems affecting the working class due to lack of assistance from the laissez-faire economy, and formed his one nation conservatism that claimed that lack of assistance for the lower classes had divided British society into two nations - the rich and the poor as the result of unrestrained private enterprise, he claimed that he sought to break down.[14] Disraeli said that he supported a united British nation while presenting the other parties representing the upper-class or the lower-class.[15] Disraeli was hostile to free trade and preferred aristocratic paternalism as well as promoting imperialism.[16] However with the revival in Britain of the socialist movement with the rise of the Labour Party, and the demise of the Liberal Party, the Conservative Party shifted to become a supporter of capitalism and an opponent of socialism, while advocacy of capitalism was promoted within the principles of traditionalist conservatism.[17]
Another centre-right movement that arose in France in response to the French Revolution, was the beginning of the Christian democracy movement, where moderate conservative Catholics accepted the democratic elements of the French Revolution.[18] The first Christian democratic party was founded in Italy in 1919 by Luigi Sturzo, it was suppressed by the Italian Fascist regime and was forced into exile in France.[19] Sturzo in France founded an international movement that supported the creation of a European common market and European integration to prevent war, amongst those who attended the group included future German Chancellor Konrad Adenauer, Alcide de Gasperi, and Robert Schuman.[20]
In Europe after World War II, centre-right Christian democratic parties arose as powerful political movements while the authoritarian reactionary Catholic traditionalist movements in Europe diminished in strength.[21] Christian democratic movements became major movements in Austria, the Benelux countries, Germany, and Italy.[22]
Neoliberalism arose as an economic theory by Milton Friedman as a prominent economic movement that condemned government interventionism in the economy that it associated with socialism and collectivism.[23] Neoliberals rejected Keynesian economics that they claimed advocate too much emphasis on relieving unemployment in response to their observance of the Great Depression, the neoliberals identified the real problem as being with inflation and advocate the policy of monetarism to deal with inflation.[24]
Neoliberal economics was endorsed by Conservative British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher who adapted it as part of a free-market conservatism closer to the developments in American conservatism, while traditionalist conservatism diminished within the British Conservative Party.[25] Thatcher publcily supported centre-right politics and supported its spread in Eastern Europe after the end of the Marxist-Leninist regimes in the late 1980s and early 1990s.[26] After the collapse of communism in Eastern Europe, a variety of centre-right political parties have emerged there, including many that support neoliberalism.[27]

Whitby drew level on 45 minutes when a Whitby striker took the ball past skipper Ryan Dicker who was judged to bring the forward down resulting in a penalty and a straight red for Dicker. Mark Robinson converted the penalty to draw the scores level at half time. It got worse for Rangers before it could get better as Matthew Tymon put Whitby ahead with 51 minutes gone. Rangers then pulled themselves right back into the game thanks to some good work on the edge of the box by centre back Lee Mcanulty, He poked the ball into the path of the impressive Neville Thompson who slotted home with a cool finish to draw Stafford level at 2-2. Young keeper Jordan Wood who replaced Danny Read in the Rangers goal in the first half due to a nasty looking hip injury. Wood picked up the ball on the edge of his box with the Whitby number 10 blocking his path. Wood appealed to the ref to move the number 10 back however instead the ref penalized Wood for holding the ball for more than 6 seconds and rewarded Whitby an indirect free kick on the edge of the box. Whitby took it quickly with most of the Rangers and Whitby team in the other half and they slotted the ball home. However that was not an end to the scoring at Marston Road. A Rangers free kick just inside the Whitby half was chipped in by Left back Jon Sheldon. His long ball dropped just under David Campbells cross bar and into the net to earn the Rangers a hard earned point.

I never really understood the multi-plat vs. exclusive games. I buy games based on how much I think I will enjoy it regardless of if it's being released on another system as well. Of my approx 50 retail games there are a bunch of exclusives, but I didn't buy them becasue of that fact. Just because a game is exclusive I will not buy it and I do not avoid games that are multi-plat. If I ignored multi-plat games I would be missing out on some of the best games of this gen and if I instead just bought every exclusive I would have a bunch of games that I wouldn't play or enjoy.
Does it really matter if MW2 outsells U2? If you enjoy a game buy it and play it. End of story.
12-11-2009 #78
Uncharted 2 came out in October and MW2 came out in November so that is why Uncharted 2 is not on the top ten games for November, but is on the top in October.
I personal buy what ever games look like the most fun to me because in the end it doesn't matter how the graphics are, but rather how much fun I had playing the game. So I buy games regardless of who publishes weather its Sony or Activision.

Most ps3 exclusives sell very well. There seems to have been a viral marketing campaign going on to plant this nonsense into the mind of gamers and games press, it crops up to often in to many different places. To attempt to sully Sonys fantastic 1st party. All in my opinion of course. LBP has sold 3million, Killzone 2million+, Motorstorm 3million+, Ratchet 1 on PS3 2million+, GT5p 4million+, Infamous 1million+, Uncharted 2 already at around 2million etc etc etc.
All those games sold better than 90% of multi-plats on the PS3.

The best game ever made was not or will not be U2... for me at least. It will be teh MGS series and thats a fact! I own em all and I beat them all multitudes of times, but..... anyways...
There is no problem with PS3 exclusives, it's just that the market is saturated with PS3, 360, and Wii users that you don't get the UNANIMOUS best game of ever result from all the reviewers.
12-12-2009 #83
I guess there's something wrong with people buying the games they choose to buy. We all have our reasons. Maybe Sony should start advertising their games more and we'll see better results in sales, results that don't affect you directly.
Almost 2 million PS3 owners bought MW2, a game that plays at 600p. I don't get it.
Don't give me the "Sony should advertise their games better" argument, coz U2 received a lot of advertisement.Thanks to Kwes for the avatar and Sylar for the signature!

The worst bands, movies, tv shows, etc have fans so why shouldnt video games?
In short - Some people like crap.
12-12-2009 #85
Of course you don't get it. You fail to see that resolution means nothing to many people. Lair was 1080p but it bombed. Majority of people out there don't really care about the number of pixels a game has. If a 600p game can deliver some of the most exciting & incredible experience than a 720p/1080p game, which one you think will sell the most?

I only own PS3 exsclusives i dont own any multiplat games on my ps3
and this wasnt on purpose only realised this like a month ago"Everything that has ever happened has been leading up to this very moment"
"What happened to bros before hoes?" "Well, this one isn't a hoe, so she's first."

MW2 does offer great graphics, gameplay, and replay value. It has that mix you are referring to. Uncharted 2 was a great game. Ill admit that. I enjoyed it from start to finish. Then I played multiplayer a few times and put it away. MW2 is just more of a blockbuster game. It had better advertising and its main focus is the replay.This game had amazing sales and you gotta admit those numbers are very impressive. Dont get me wrong I still love uncharted but there is no way it will outsell a great shooter like mw2. This proves that PS3 owners dont purchase software like 360 owners. If uncharted was a 360 title it would easily sell 3 to 4 million copies.
12-12-2009 #89
Games like socom confrontation hurts peoples views I think.. Killzone 2, good, but over hyped..
Just wait until God of War 3 & Gran Turismo 5... Then the ps3 will get more users/adopters
Like the post above this.. 360 owners love to support MS for some reason. PS3 owners are more laid back I think.
12-12-2009 #90
Its not all about loving to support ms. Its just about buying games that you enjoy. 360 has always been marketed as a hd gaming console. Some ps3 owners still use the thing for movies only. They are missing out on some great games. i still cant believe that some ps3 owners havent played the second uncharted game yet. So its not about supporting ms. Its about supporting your console of choice. Gamers like what the 360 offers. it doesnt have a lot of bells and whistles but its a great console that offers some really good games.Sony exclusives are great but its just not been enough up to this point.
12-12-2009 #91
The Ps3 has too many good exclusive games which isn't a bad thing but the sales suffer. The Ps3's library offers the best variety across all gaming genre's. That's not an opinion, that's a fact. Take Infamous and Prototype for example. I believe both sold something like 1-1.5mil each on the Ps3, and on the 360 Prototype sold 1-2mil? The sales were split in half on the Ps3 because Ps3 gamers had the option of playing either or. Both games were similar super hero typed games.
I think Ps3 exclusives sales definitely lack but i believe the main reason behind that is the variety. I honestly don't know what game to play after i beat a game, there's just so many options.
12-12-2009 #92
If that is a fact then why are they still being outsold by ms. Ps3 exclusives sales lack because people buy games that they want to play. Not because its an exclusive. MW2 out sold most exclusives on ps3. That says alot. Ps3 owners need to show more support to 3rd party games. That is a fact. If they dont the next gen is gonna start with most 3rd party devs showing more support to ms because of higher sales on the 360. You can brag about exclusives but in the end they wont be enough. 3rd party games the ones that are leading this indstry.

I don't see what the issue is... Here's what it all boils down to:
It's gaming! Let people play what they want.. Gaming is about enjoyment, not playing in which people deem to be great. People play games they enjoy. You, for instance, enjoy Uncharted 2, while others enjoy Modern Warfare 2. In other words you're deeming PS3 gamers idiotic for playing the games that they think are enjoyable.
Okay so Uncharted 2 is a great title... That's great and all. People will come along it if they do and if they don't it's none of our business.
It's just gaming... Not a big deal.
12-12-2009 #94
I only own a couple exclusives, I had Resistance 1, didnt care for it too much, tried R2:FoM beta and i just thought it was horrible(yeah i know it was a beta but my dislike of the first one didnt thrive me too much for the second) I have not played Uncharted, and to be honest im not sure why, it looed neat, i loved the ads for it but for some reason just have not picked it up yet, and now with 2 out i should really get my *** in gear, I didnt even give MGS4 a thought as i was not a huge fan of the series. I do plan on gettin VC and Demon souls. As i love me some RPG and Fantasy. But i dont care if its an exclusive or multiplat, I care about a game that i think i will enjoy.

Oh no a game that runs 600p !!!
Seriously just get over it, i dont like CoD but seriously your hating on the game has been boring for some time now and you know what ? People like diffrent games, COD is so much easier to just pick up and play than any ps3 exclusive fps. Not that i would prefer that but the average joe does and that's not wrong, you cant say that it's wrong to listen to some band over another because it's longer and have better sound quality.
Only idiotic opinion is thinking everyone else is wrong.
Also yes i think sony needs to advertise better, uncharted 2 had many ads in tv but still nearly not even close to the class of for example gears of war advertisement with mad world, seriously everyone remembered that ad while uncharted 2 ad was boring and not really well done, just a lot of flashing gameplay clips.
Yes it is. Give me a good traditional jrpg ? Give me a good exclusive fighter ?
Yeah you can also find genres that 360 and wii dont have any exclusive of but that still does not make that a fact at all. Ps3 really doesn't have that much variety when it comes to games yet but i can imagine that will change when ffvs13, heavy rain and last guardian are out (some time in 2016)Calculating Infinity
12-12-2009 #97
I don't hate MW2, I just don't think it's the great game everybody says. That's all. Do I love COD4? Yes. Do I dislike Activision? Yes. But, this thread is about PS3 exclusives not selling as expected. I only used MW2 example coz it sold 2 million copies on PS3 in the US. That's all. And I didn't call anyone an idiot, like you did with me.

Actually I didnt call you an idiot, read my post again. But using arguements like CoD runs in lower than 720p and it's because of that is inferior and doesn't deserve to sell as well as uncharted 2 is a bit silly. Especially when you like a game like the ps3 exclusive MGS4 that also doesn't run 720p.
Call of duty sold more because it's on all the consoles (and pc) and gets a bigger marketing budget because of that and more talk everywhere because everyone no matter what console they have they talk about it.
Because it's more mainstream and much easier to pick up.
Been going for a longer time than uncharted that only just started this gen.
Ps3 games sells just as expected and you can see stuff like gran turismo 5p selling much more than cod on ps3. People know about gran turismo and it got a strong fanbase. The arguments to why a game like uncharted 2 doesnt sell as much are pretty easy to find.Calculating Infinity
12-12-2009 #99
MGS4 native resolution is 720p, but it doesn't matter. And I think Uncharted is a well known series, it will even get a movie and tbh I don't think many PS3 owners aren't aware of what Uncharted is. Nevertheless, COD series is more mainstream, I concede it. But, my point stands, PS3 exclusives, except for a couple of games, don't sell as expected. Forget about MW2, which I used as an example for comparison and a lot of people felt offended. It wasn't my intention.

MGS4 runs 1024.x768 so got a few less pixels. But my point is that resolution doesnt matter when it plays well.
Uncharted is not well known, at all. Friends of mine who aren't big nerds like us people chatting on gaming forums dont really know what it is and if they do they haven't played it. Ask them about call of duty, gran turismo and fifa and they have played them for years.Calculating Infinity

Over coffee at the West Bank Cafe, where he used to perform, Black simmered down long enough to tell me his humor stems from an acute case of frustration. "Everything seems to frustrate me," he said, "especially gross, negligent stupidity and lack of manners." With that, I strained to be super well behaved to avoid getting a face full of latte, and it worked; we hit it off like two bitchy houses on fire.
Black's kvetching has caught on to the point where he has a new CD, The White Album, and has become identifiable as stand-up's angry middle-aged man. "Kids say, 'You're just like my father, only you're funny,' " Black told me, though he's actually more like the kids themselveshis stage persona is basically himself at 14. "It's a character," he said. "As soon as I walk offstage, I'm back to normal." And what, pray tell, might that be? Well, Black is an everyday striver who grew up outside D.C., studied at Yale Drama School, and found that as an actor-playwright he tended to get into frequent confrontations with the power guys. The madder he got, the more he realized that he needed to vent his rage through comedy. "If you pick a career in the arts and you have any sense of self-worth, it can make you insane," he said, corneas bulging.
Success, it turns out, hasn't had any calming influence on Black at all. In fact, he's more irritated than ever, and isn't the least bit soothed by stuff like the country's economic state. "Yeah, it's the greatest economy ever," he fumed, "because in the Midwest, the mother and the father are both working. Now everyone can work to barely get enough money to get by." He was fully morphing into the character we crave, looking like a giant middle finger with wire-rims, an enormous "Fuck you" sign in a leather jacket.
Our presidential choices, said Black, "redefined the word sucks. We've never had two candidates that we hated equally. I see a quality of meanness in Bush. And Gore was supposed to be this great debater, but he didn't even have the common sense to let Bush hang himself. Bush can barely walk in space. Let everyone just watch him try to find his seat!
"And how did Rick Lazio even get into Congress?" he went on, smoke billowing out of his schnozz. "Was he running against an otter? Did people say, 'Well, we can't vote for the otter because we'd have to catch it all the time'? He's got the political weight of a gnat. He reminds me of that kid who wanted to be in student government, so you said, 'OK, we'll let you be in charge of the budget, just stop talking.' "
Thankfully, Black never does. An equal opportunity offender, he climaxed our session by taking on Hillary Clinton, saying, "So she's not a New Yorker? Who cares? She's just obnoxious!" Charmed to meet you, Lewisno, really.
To relieve some tension of my own, I participated in a pilot taping of A.J. After Dark, a talk show starring A.J. Benza, the ex-New Yorker who isn't acutely frustrated by anything except unavailable poontang. This wasn't his first pilot; the gossip-turned-E!-star told the audience that an attempt to set the show at a nightclub failed when everyone at Spa gave the camera the finger. (Lewis Black must have been there.) This time, he was shooting in a loft made to look like a V.I.P. room, which he said generally consists of "three Haitian drug dealers and two models." It was in Noho, which A.J. sensitively told the crowd he had thought stood for No Homos. Fortunately, he was wrong, but the show still exists in that nostalgic place where ordinary Joes try to lay supermodels, despite the ladies' distinct preference for being surrounded by either tycoons or hairdressers.
In his banter with guest Christopher Meloni from the gay-tinged Oz, A.J. admitted that he recently went queer himself. "I had to make love to Steve Guttenberg in an independent movie," he griped, "which is not an easy job." (I'm sure that's not because it was gay, but because it was Steve Guttenberg.) By the time he discussed Liza Minnelli with a supermodel guestwhom he kept trying to layA.J. was soaring to the occasion. "Yeah, she was bitten by a mosquito," he snarled. "She was bitten by a gin bottle!" Fame, ain't it a bitch.
That bitter theme is being carried out a lot in plays that are starting to resemble legit versions of True Hollywood Story. Dahling is this week's bio-drama about boozy actress Tallulah Bankhead, who's suddenly being revived as much as Dr. Seuss. (I didn't realize they were two different things.) The show has an extremely endearing quality, especially in Tallu's early years, but the thrust becomes overly linear, with too many lines like "So you're Marlene Dietrich?" Otherwise, it's dahling.

Well, we're happy to report that our ears are working just fine today. How do we know? Because we couldn't make it through a few seconds of the below ad without scrambling for the "mute" button.
The clever spot, created by Draftfcb Toronto for the Union Hearing Aid Centre, actually appears to be a vision test, displaying letters in ever-shrinking fonts. When viewers reach the end of the commercial, they are informed that if they can read the final tiny line of print, then their "eyesight is fine", but that (surprise!) they may want to invest in a hearing test at Union, as a "really annoying, really loud high-frequency sound" has been playing throughout the ad; those with good hearing would have likely found the sound too intolerable to make it through to the end.
Like we said — clever. We just wouldn't recommend playing it at full volume at work…or a dog park.

While it might sound like an April Fool's post, we assure you that Israel's recently announced plans to build a $10 billion artificial island off the coast of Gaza are 100% real. The United Arab Emirates have a disastrous love affair with artificial islands (if you hadn't heard, "The World" islands are already sinking) but until now Israel has been fairly wary of projects that could negatively impact the Mediterranean sea and shore. According to the folks at Green Prophet, the 10 year project will create a portal for goods going into Gaza, but environmentalists call it "sheer madness."
Transportation Minister Yisrael Katz told the Guardian that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu supports what would be a three square mile artificial island linked to Gaza by a three mile bridge. The country's environmental ministry was not consulted. In order to secure Israel, a tiny country the size of New Jersey surrounded by mostly hostile neighbors, Gaza is under international protection and is likely to stay so for another century. An offshore port will give the people living in Gaza access to goods without compromising Israel's security, while the planned marina and hotels will attract tourist revenue.
But artificial islands are bad for the environment since they create erosion and disrupt the marine ecosystem in which they are built. Gideon Bromberg, Director of Friends of the Earth Middle East (FoEME), says the project makes no sense, and that it will have deleterious effects up and down the coast of Gaza and Israel. Much folly happens in the name of security; this artificial island, if it comes to fruition, will be another case in point.

At first I thought this was crazy, but now I disagree.
It seems it will have economic benefits and security benefits and this may considerably advance both.
And I can't help but wonder how serious this would be to the aquatic environment of the Mediterranean sea…
