I have heard from quite a few people saying Protoss is for noobs because it's the easiest race of the three. How is protoss easier than other races? Is it true that it's much easier to get good at it?
I'm looking for some good turn-based games on iPhone.
Puzzle games, board games, strategy games or anything. Genre doesn't matter.
I've had a lot of fun with Words with Friends. I'm looking for something new.
In the past I played a couple of PBEM (Play by email) games, which I quite enjoyed and the formula was well suited to my work schedule. I now find myself with more time on my hands and would like to revisit this type of gaming.
If possible, I'd like some recommendations for some PBEM ...

I could very well be wrong. Lots of people said Super User wouldn't work, and I thought it could (and does!)
See, on principle, the question "can be answered with a single correct answer". But that doesn't make it a good question for our future success. I'm going to withdraw my answer now.
Feeling like "I don't know enough to even attempt an answer" would set some kind of bar between good and bad types of questions. Questions where everyone can have a say, not good. The level would be set at the basement then

I'm planning to pick up a new system to coincide with the release of Starcraft II, but I haven't been keeping up with gaming hardware for a while... What system do you feel is the best value currently that will let me turn up all the settings to high, but won't cost an arm and a leg?
That kinda was why I asked about it on Meta, if we'd have it. The team can't be blamed (especially if the time to develop it gives us something as nice as what we have here), of course

I think I'll start creating some more questions... I'm trying to keep my Q:A ratio 1:1 for the beta, but I've answered too much question (read: asked not enough)
Even if we can reformulate that specific question, we still need to set down a line for "tell me how to play this game" types of questions in the future
Give me an example (not necessarily from the site) of something you'd see in this grey area
I can't think of any example that is basically "play for me" that can really be fixed with being detailed
For a successful experience, not just for the site but for the question asker, the important thing is to isolate what the actual problem is that help is required for.
I've heard about the HomeBrew stuff (wiki) that'll let me download and install simple games and even write my own, but is it fully compatible with the latest updates? I've heard horror stories of people bricking their Wii's....
A: Not a lot of games include manuals with their Steam versions. If they are available, you can open them by right-clicking the game and choosing View Player Manual.
I just checked, Mirror's Edge (the only game I have in your list) doesn't have a manual, only support pages.
Obviously, having actual players in your mafia benefits you because they give you energy packs/gifts/etc.
However, strictly for the purposes of fights, is there any advantage for having actual players in your mafia over the hired-guns that you can buy with reward points?

Wii question is fine with me.. I don't really care about legality unless it's CLEARLY illegal (linking to warez, gimme teh free softwarez, etc)
the definition of 'illegal' is vague with modding, I've been told often enough that what I'm doing with my phone (rooting and such) is illegal, but I can't imagine it breaking any laws
