Diver Snaps First Photo of a Fish Using a Tool

Couldn't you just hook the door bell up to your LAN and make it call through Skype or whatever instead of this 3g chip nonsense?

It's just gravity from a different direction pulling(pushing?) it away from Earth, it's still losing to gravity. You can't beat gravity. Not until we invent some sort of anti-gravity that works in some way not currently known to established science.

But if you make going outside illegal, only the criminals will go outside!

Sorry no, but it won't change until there is some key technological or cultural revolution on the scale of the (first) American Revolution. Power is never taken away gradually. Something like First Contact, Free Energy(Cheap Nuclear Fusion, Antimatter, whatever), or the gates of hell suddenly opening up would probably do it. Okay maybe not that last one unless it completely destroyed all forms of government entirely. A massive Nuclear Incident (Say, 1+ Megatons going off anonymously in Moscow/London/New York) would most likely instill marshal law in most countries. This could eventually lead to complete civil revolt. It's hard to say really, speculation is all the rage!

Software box companies continue to dislike digital distribution, oil companies lobby away from nuclear power, and the middle east is still a warzone.

In this case, the 64 obviously stands for 64-bit processor, much like the Nintendo 64.

Starcraft doesn't make the list because it is not "unsung" - pretty much everyone knows what it did for the genre.

Silent Protagonists are not all that uncommon and usually very effective. (Crono!)

Flagship Studios thought they could do without a publisher, too.

Actually.. a lot of distributors of DVDs will usually let you send back a damaged disc for a replacement (although, sometimes you're charged a fee for this. I seem to recall EB Games having a 2$ deal for pre-owned game discs, but I can't be sure if that's still around) so your point may still be valid anyway.

Giving stuff away can certainly turn a profit if it's used as advertising for other services/products.

No, cause then we'd all have bad hair and talk about cheese all the time. Cheeeeeeese.
