1. Gamers embrace digital distribution

You are reading too much into that. Just because they've spent the most on a particular service doesn't mean that they've 'embraced' digital distribution. If they've spent $5.00 for an Indy game, and nothing else, then they've spent the most money on that service.

http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=3079
76% of people polled on this site basically say that digital distribution is only 'okay' or worse. Which is far from embracing it.

2. ...done right (Steam, PSN, XBLA) and without charging money for 20-year-old roms (lol Nintendo)

If anything I think it goes to show that a lot of digital purchases ARE Indy games and the like. I'm not sure if Nintendo has any Indy games available. Most of their games are, as you've stated, re-releases.

3. Steam and PSN beating XBLA shows that people want to see a real price, not dumbass points

Then what about this poll:
http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=4487

While I personally prefer real prices too, I don't think that it matters too much to most people. That XBOX Live is keeping up pretty well seems to suggest that it doesn't matter, rather than that it does.

4. Steam would be kicking even more ass if this wasn't such an anti-PC site

Anti-PC? People keep saying that, but I don't get it. PC gaming isn't the most popular type of gaming on the site, but I'm not sure how that makes the site Anti-PC.

42% of the site owns a gaming capable PC that plays most or every game
73% of the site owns a gaming capable PC, but not a more recent one

63-69% own a Wii (Depending on which poll you use)
60-63% own a PS3 (depending on which poll you use)
55-58% own a 360 (Depending on which poll you use)

Less popular sometimes is just less popular.

I hate the Patriots and Belichick as much as anyone, and honestly that's a pretty low way to go.

The NFL needs to do more about concussions. Outer-padded Football Helmets need to be a priority in the league, and I honestly don't see why they aren't already. The league and commissioner like to make rules that appear to reduce concussions, while still ignoring this much-necessary step.

I can't eat Onions. They make me sick. People always tell me "It's all in your head!" but it most certainly isn't.

If onion is just like an ingredient, like say Ketchup, then I'm fine with it. But if I can taste it at all, I'm going to gag.

The Awesome and hilarious Ninja. Also brings his pet GIANT TURTLE with him. Because he's cool like that. Also has backup dancers. Who are bards. Who do nothing, but dance all the time. Also has a robot that suspiciously looks like HK-47 mixed with Legion. Man he has a lot of stuff.

We have a Giant Turtle, and a sweet Robot, and two backupdancers. That makes up our party of 6. People wishing to apply however as backupdancers, Giant Turtles, and Awesome Robots are free to do so.

The only problem I see here is that they need to more clearly define what a sex offender is. Or have different levels of sex offenders.

Like a Class 1 Sex Offender could be someone who committed public lewdness. They shouldn't be banned.

and then you'd have all the way up to like... Class 5 - Convicted Pedophile/Child Molester. Who'd be banned.

Really? I don't get dental insurance because that would just be more expensive for me.. Check ups are only $50-$100 range with no insurance, can't remember exactly.

Must depend on the dentist, because it was more than that the last time I went (never went as a kid, because my mom had 6 kids to take care of). Can't remember the exact amount.

I bought a wireless router, it didn't work. Thankfully I was able to get my money back on it. Still online always isn't reliable for everyone, and some people don't even have high speed internet yet.

I think the Wii is more annoying as far as getting a game started going. Though there's probably an option to run from start that I'm missing. You have to get the cursor (which sometimes works, and sometimes it doesn't)

And then if you want multiplayer (which most wii games are) sometimes you can go through it 2 and 3 times to get the remotes read properly.
