Deciding who the best Joker was in various comic based films and television shows is no easy task. We recently posted the “Top Five Joker Quotes From ‘Batman: The Dark Knight’” which included the debate of Nicholson vs. Ledger in the comments. This time we want to make it official and poll the readers with the question “who was the best Joker?”

Sorry, there are no polls available at the moment.

Cesar Romero

Cesar Romero was the Joker of the 1960s, playing the role in 18 episodes of the television series. He also reprised the role in the 1966 film.

Recent studies have shown that the majority of PS3 owners are over the age of 45. While this may lead some to believe that most PS3 gamers are over 45, that would be a false assumption. From talks I have had with various retailers, it appears that males over 45 are still buying the PS3 to watch movies on, not play games. I haven’t seen any specific studies breaking down what the age groups are playing on the PS3, I’d assume that the average PS3 gamer would probably fit into the 30-40 range. As an interesting side-note, the average Xbox 360 owner is 35-44 and the average Wii owner is 18-24. While some fanboys may still cling to the “which console is best” debate, it really does not matter at this point. Each system appeals to an entirely different demographic. All three consoles in this generation will be considered a success once it’s all said and done…

With all the latest developments in a technology world, those “I’ve fallen, and I can’t get up” infomercials are yesteryears news. Bluetooth has now moved into the medical field. Just like a laptop within a wireless signal, your “in-body network” would immediately send an alert when a heart attack is happening.

“The communications regulator said that sensors could be implanted into people at risk of heart attack or diabetic collapse that would allow doctors to monitor them remotely.

If the “in-body network” recorded that the person had suddenly collapsed, it would send an alert, via a nearby base station at their home, to a surgery or hospital.

However, Ofcom also gave warning in its report, Tomorrow’s Wireless World, that the impact of such technology on personal privacy would require more debate.

The technology, which is being tested now in Portsmouth, could also be used if a patient failed to take his or her medicines. A pill dispenser would send an automatic reminder and, if the pills were not taken within a certain time, an alarm would sound and a message would be sent to the patient’s family or carers.

However, health experts say that they are skeptical about the level of take-up of “in-body” sensors while research into the possible radiation impact of wi-fi networks is going on.”

“Be sure to stay in range when your having the “Big One” Pops!”

This topic brings up a huge debate. On the one side, you’ll have a great healthcare system that monitors you and can assist those patients in need. On the other side, you’ll have Big Brother telling you when to take your horse pills and don’t sit on the toilet bowl for long periods of time because your hemorrhoids might pop out.

I now ask you, the viewer, what is your take?
A. Let the Gob’ment and Doctor’s monitor..
B. I don’t need no stinkin pills

“Lockout” was perhaps my favorite Halo 2 map and now we have the remake “Blackout” for Halo 3. The debate this week will certainly be deciding which map is better. I honestly wish I could say the new map was better, but I still prefer Halo 2’s version. I feel like the textures were completely overdone on the new map and the map is just missing some of the old magic. I had the chance to play a few games on it today and it simply didn’t feel as exciting as the old map did. On the old map, it was easier to create choke points to trap the enemy team, but it just feels a little too spacious this time around. Obviously “Blackout” will be the map that sells the new DLC pack, but I’m just not feeling it. It’s still a good map, but I honestly expected more.

Which map do you prefer?

Halo 2’s Lockout or Halo 3’s Blackout…
