While crafting a a letter I discovered this disapointing shortfall in the Microsoft Hotmail service...

Both the Xbox and PlayStation brands were included in the spelling dictionary.

What gives?

 

[GeoNeo]

You should use the Feedback link to correct their wrong?

 

[Socreges]

This is inexcusable. I hope you're writing an angry letter. Otherwise I will.

 

[Sagitario]

Use Gmail or Yahoo!...

 

[dog$]

How about GAMECUBE?

 

[johnjohnson]

That's really a serious problem. I'd stop using their biased software.

 

[clearacell]

Playstation has been part of the vernacular for over 10 years. Xbox is obviously going to stay Xbox on a Microsoft-owned entity. Gamecube is a brand name, and it would make sense to have a game cube, not a Gamecube.

Again...who cares?

Maybe because you didn't capitalize the C like you're supposed to? It's GameCube, not Gamecube.

 

[Gahiggidy]

How about GAMECUBE?

Nope.

 

[Gahiggidy]

Maybe because you didn't capitalize the C like you're supposed to? It's GameCube, not Gamecube.

Nope again.

 

[Red Scarlet]

Don't use that bizarro never-before-seen (by me) spell checker?

 

[AndoCalrissian]

You should probably start using a decent email service, like Gmail.

 

[cvxfreak]

Enter iPod while you're at it.

When typing Nintendo in katakana in OS X, pressing down preps the proper Kanji or the Romaji (Nintendo). Thought it was neat.

 

[Gahiggidy]

Also, in Microsoft Word "Pikmin" is not in the dictionary while "Halo" is... even though Pikmin came out before Halo (in Japan).

 

[Slurpy]

Let me take this opportunity to say:

The whole hotmail service is a shortfall. God knows why or how people still choose to use it.

Uh, halo is a very old word.

 

[Gahiggidy]

And Pikmin isn't?

 

[Teknopathetic]

At least Wikipedia has just about everything...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pikmin
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pikmin_(species)

Even the word, "Fo Shizzle":
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fo_shizzle

and, "O RLY?":
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O_RLY?


:lol

EDIT: Fixed the 'O RLY?' link. The old link started redirecting to something else.

1. Pikmin link send redefine 8 up, 1 down
A half-inch tall, Carrot-Shaped creature resident to the Planet Earth, although they are too small and quick for humans to notice. They tend to live underground or in small colored spaceship-like plants called Onions. There are for different species of Pikmin on record: Red, Blue, Yellow, White, and Purple.
The Pikmin were Captain Olimar's only chance of survival.

2. Pikmin link send redefine 5 thumbs up
Awesome little 1/2" creatures that are very strong ecspecially good in big numbers. They come available in colors of Red;which are resisant to fire, Blue;which can go swimming, Yellow; which cannot be killed by electricity, Purple; which have the strength and girth of 10 pikmin, and White; which are immune to poisin. A very fun and addictive game another masterpiece from the mind of Shigeru Miyamoto.
The fag above mine tells all lies about Pikmin. He must be one of those damn Halo fagboys that need to be wipped of the face of this Earth or educated.

Urbandictionary disagrees.

I love Wikipedia with all my heart. You should see the things I've used it for the last few months. African history, Chinese rulers, Nobunaga and Yoritomo, Jet Li, Amiga 500, Warcraft characters, television standards, MIPS architecture, various movies and now O RLY. And that's just the saved URLs in my browser.
