Oh my god what! Take that, horsey pants! YES!

Oh my ... god, Lady Jaye, kicking ass, bitch-slapping Cobra commandos all over the place. Snake Eyes, undefeatable, Storm Shadow, unbeatable. In a duel to the death, and yet not, with a redemption to match. Retaliation! Yo, Joe!

Small, but effective. From one of my fave shows evar, Legend of the Seeker.

A little bit harsh. Makes it sound as if drill instructors churn out robots incapable of self-control, when of course only the opposite can be true. The best reason to stand on the yellow footprints of life is that it connects you forever in a meaningful way to those who came before, particularly those who paid with their lives. That is what Once a Marine, Always a Marine, alludes to ... not a magically indelible attitude of superiority. Flying the flag means you're acknowledging the sacrifice of others, and not, simply to show colors.

They have Volvo and the best World Rally courses in the, er, world--at least from where I'm sitting.

I am gonna be so hip wearing this black Obsidian t-shirt underneath my Pillars of Eternity t-shirt. Shazaam!! And yes, thanks to Obsidian! I would totally open this stout, but it's 22oz and 13% and I haven't eaten since lunch.

I'm speechless with excitement, too. What a kick-ass update! Woot! I don't even mind that the Kickstarter badge isn't showing up, it's not the sexiest moniker. Thanks, Obsidian, love it.

I swear they said the Giants are already kaput. Maybe there was a second condition not met, and maybe I couldn't hear very well in the din of San Diego's likely final victory of the season , but I thought Fox said NYG were eliminated already.

Just finished Ep. 1 of Sherlock, Season 2 ... bloody good telly, this. Only three episodes per series, but 90 minutes each. It makes Elementary look a bit staid, wan, and bland. Highly recommended.

Oh, pedantic pants and his wand of condescension are right, if the backer portal were critical, it would have been live months ago.

Maybe Tuesday's patch will be like magic-fairy fix-it dust.

I was wrong, it is not a PC port to PS4/XB1 ... they employed two other studios to rebuild textures, add in TressFX, rebuild Lara's head completely ... This game on the PC was very graphically intensive, so it'll be interesting to see how the "HD remake" for next-gen consoles compares.

A few days after the new year, maybe. I can't imagine it's wise to release a critical project component with only one work-week left in the year, basically.

Well, it wasn't terrible. That's not true. The "concert" at the end was not my style and ultra-NSFW. Looks like the "awards" are just an excuse to get together and talk about video games, which is always cool, however. Joel McHale was pretty stale and stomped all over his co-host, interrupting and talking at the same time. I liked all the developers coming on the show, and the trailers were fun. It could be a good show if they get a more naturally funny, professional presenter. The best part of all was the particle effects in volumetric lighting for The Division trailer ... zomg. And No Man's Sky looks promising, except I don't play MMOs.

Cool, I believe Amazon just confirmed what I wanted to know. There's a listing for Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition for PS4 and XBox One, January 28th, which I think is part of tonight's VGX news. Two gameplay images show Lara's ponytail using TressFX, and the product description goes on to say ... Except I have seen her like that before, on my PC. Oh well, I'm compelled to buy this game a third time, for reasons.

mmm, Camilla, lovely. I hope the Tomb Raider announcement includes a title sequel and the inclusion of TressFX into the next-gen console versions of both games. My PS4 needs some Lara, but not for $60 if it doesn't include awesome tresses.

The cerebral completionist part of me wants Eternity more than the other games, but the die-hard sci-fi nerd wants the next Mass Effect more. My inner Dunedain trumps all others and demands Inquisition immediately. Or, whenever it's ready, is fine. Next year does seem a little soon for new, cool biotic powers.

It was a long, long period inbetween versions 1.1 and 1.9. Even on the Xbox, there were several quest-breakers and numerous odd glitches. PS3 players had it worst of all, though. Still, I banged out 600 hours on console, and am playing right now on PC. I have 60 hours so far, and no broken quests or bugs yet. The mod with prettier female faces is a nice touch ...

Cool, Lego LOTR for $7.49. That should do it for this sale, unless Steam reminds me of something else I forgot I wanted.

Had plans to play Euro Truck Sim 2, ended up starting KOTOR 2, after realizing I can not back up a MAN truck to save my life, or the lives of any pedestrians in Salzburg. It's a fun game, though, I'll stick with it. Pivot-point physics on a fixed plane are remarkably challenging. Haven't seen any shopping deals that I desperately want ... maybe I'm just not looking hard enough.

Can't quote the extendo-length photo, but anything with Rottweilers and girls in bikinis, we need more of, thank you.

Oh, heh, I'm a derp. Me: "Why is Steam's sale page upside down at the bottom ..." It's a Spring Sale for Bruce, no doubt.

Got an email from Hasbro, Boba Fett is on his way. The same day, they revealed the upcoming Wave 3 of the Star Wars Black Series 6" characters, and it includes a stonking beautiful Stormtrooper, who will likely become as unobtainable as Fett. Pre-order for this figure sold out in minutes. I missed it. Will keep trying.

Cool, I'm going Euro Trucking. I don't suppose there is a right-hand drive, left-hand side of the road option ... I'd like to practice bizarro driving.
