Yeah, there's no way I could play Papers, Please! with a touch-screen. The controls are frustrating enough when you're playing on PC... It's actually a lot better and more intuitive on the iPad.

Papers, Please on the iPad. Absolutely perfect medium for this game. Glory to Arztotzka!

Paradox games usually have word of mouth and internet videos as their main line of PR. Yep. Their videos tend to be unorthodox, but are usually really well done.

Former CIA officials (including Directors George Tenet, Porter Goss, and Michael Hayden) wrote a rebuttal: http://www.wsj.com/articles/cia-interrogations-saved-lives-1418142644 They also launched a website: http://www.ciasavedlives.com/ I've been cavalier with opinions regarding Enhanced Interrogation Techniques/Torture but am generally very much against its use. There's much to criticize about the CIA and their...colorful...history, but I am a proponent of the CIA and their importance to national security and I agree that this was a shoddy and highly partisan attack against the agency.

I am sensing that this thread is perilously close to falling off the precipitous ledge onto spoiler valley.

So we're a quarter of the way through the season and the West is insanely good. Dallas, the current #7 seed is on pace for 58 wins, and they're only 3 1/2 games behind Golden State for the top seed. And nobody, but NOBODY wants to win the top seed only to have to play OKC in the first round.

VB? Wasn't the concept for that basically recycled for NV and the DLCs? Well, whatever Van Buren is going to be, it ain't gonna be a Fallout (in name only?). The bridge to Bethesda is still in smoldering ashes due to that noted hamster arsonist, Faran Brygo.

So much telecommuting today. BART ridership was the least crowded I've been on in a while. The crowd apparently paid heed to the talking heads on the morning news shows Yeah, this storm is a bit...overstated for now.

Re: #8. Good. That scum known as Khalid Shiekh Mohammed was directly responsible for the murder of 3,000 Americans.

Meh. Not like this was really a big reveal to those of us who go to the movies, read spy novels, or watch television. Or play Obsidian video games.

I'm assuming you'll see physical copies of PoE wherever you see copies of newer Paradox games. Why would Obsidian sign Paradox as publisher/distributor if they only plan for digital sales?

Maybe you were thinking of Blizzard?

Then again, in a perfect world, CD Projekt probably doesn't want to canibalize sales for each game when they are both released on GOG. Spread them apart to maximize sales for both = more profit.

As a Niners fan, I was actually hoping the Raiders would win just so I could hate watch Kaepernick's press conference. He didn't disappoint.

Obsidian has previously made statements stating that there will be Steam Achievements.

Oh well. I actually got it well before Black Friday -in late October. In hindsight, I should have waited for post Thanksgiving since I didn't actually finish the build until this past weekend. Not my rig anyway...

$209 in addition to a 15% off promo code.

How much is that in Sony points?

Meh. I'm fine with it if she's wearing a low cut polka dress.

Bummer that you missed out on those 500 Sony Rewards Points. Could have made some strides towards the 7,000,000 needed for that harrier jet.

Well yeah, obviously. What I meant was that he was very dismissive of the quality of the Unity engine, not that they should drop what they were doing and start from scratch with it. I know that they're big into C&C and merciless tactical combat, so I'll probably give a shot when it finally gets released and is patched a few times.

Definitely one of my favorite tracks from Cowboy Bebop.

Personally, I could not care less what Bio does with Revan anymore as his story for me ended in cliffhanger fashion after KoTOR 2. But, these developments are unfortunate as it pretty much eliminates any possibility of a KotOR 3 leaving off where the Sith Lords ended in The Exile's search for Revan. Oh well. Good thing Lucasarts is throwing EU continuity out the door for the next set of movies anyway.
