GDC 2008: The Future of MMOs, Several top designers gather to discuss the future of the genre:
"We've definitely enjoyed some of the panels at this year's show, particularly the ones on Blizzard's multiplayer philosophies and the plans for Spore's user generated content. Another that was really high on our list was a discussion of the future of the MMO by a number of the genre's successful designers. On hand were Jack Emmert of Cryptic Studios, Mark Miller of NCSoft, Min Kim of Nexon and Rob Pardo of Blizzard Entertainment. MMO newbie Ray Muzyka was also on hand to share his thoughts as BioWare moves into the MMO arena. The entire panel was moderated by MMORPG.com's Jon Wood."

With the latest Media Center Edition update from Microsoft, many other users and myself are finding that content available on Television are now completely unwatchable from Media Center, with a message that simply states "Restricted Content: Restrictions set by the broadcaster and/or originator of the content prohibit playback of the program on this computer."
A simple search on the subject reveals that HBO programming and, in my case Braveheart on AMC, are among the many selections now restricted for playback or recording by Windows Media Center Edition. What's next, restricting every piece of programming on television? One thing is for sure, there won't be much left to watch.
