  1. I own Spacebase. It's a playable game. It's not great, but it is hardly worth all the controversy it generated. You get what you pay for, I am pleasantly surprised when $20 gets me a deep game, but I do not expect that to happen every time. That being said, I still am not crowdfunding doublefine, but that has little to do with Spacebase.
  2. Yeah I retch pretty bad when the kids vomit too. I usually get the job of hosing them off while my wife cleans up the vomit. Good times. I'm taking the family to Star Wars this morning.
  3. I doubt anyone high enough up to comment is available. It is Christmas day.
  4. It IS a better shooter, and the leveling up process is easy, and the presentation is fantastic. That is hard to argue against. But yeah, it's not really an RPG anymore.
  5. We have 50 pounds of masa. We may have overdone this, I think we can go into business. We have a pretty big assembly line. I am in charge of the propane burners outside. I have only partially burnt some hairs, so it is going well. I am enjoying a Deschutes Jubilale while I work. Very festive.
  6. Obviously Disney has revved up the marketing to a new level, but I'm not sure that has too much bearing on the entertainment factor of the movie. Abrams makes highly entertaining films, by and large. The majority of people seem to enjoy them. Nothing wrong with going against that, I think we all have stuff that makes us scratch our head over their popularity. I'm bummed for you that it is happening to Star Wars, which you obviously have an affinity for.
  7. My house is filled with masa, pork, and chicken, and in a few hours we will start making tamales. We are also making dessert ones with dried cranberries and raisins.
  8. He is still producing, so it's not like he is completely gone. Also LOST was awesome, and I loved the way it ended.
  9. Of course, there are some things that are worth spending government money on, and should not be a matter of political party.
  10. The first area you should be exploring is a cave system where you go through an airlock kind of door thing. It is near the docks.
  11. I'm enjoying it, fantastic character development system. Once again, a game that seems to understand the magic of a good skill and perk system. I'm looking at you Bethesda.
  12. "In 2008, ABC asked two actors to play the role of an unwelcoming shop keeper and a Muslim customer in a Waco, Texas, bakery. Over and over, the female actor would enter and attempt to order a pastry; over and over, the man posing as the sales clerk insulted her faith and refused to serve her." The media has to stage anti-Muslim incidents because they can't find any in real life.
  13. This was a pretty good story: http://www.csmonitor.com/USA/Society/2015/1221/US-troops-to-American-Muslim-child-iwillprotectyou-video
  14. Hey man, that 8 year-old probably deserved it. I may have misread your post.
  15. Harrison Ford crashed his airplane recently too. But he's also 73, we should all hope to be that limber at his age.
  16. It's not about the colleges making money, the NCAA as an organization brought in close to $1 billion in revenue last year. That's crazy.
  17. Is there something wrong with them waiting until after the holiday to activate the event? I like my games, but I don't expect people to give up time with family over the holidays so I can hunt down bounties.
  18. I'm pretty sure everyone hates the NCAA.
  19. Chaos Reborn? I pledged it and have it on Steam, but I've never actually played it. I don't know why.
  20. It sounds like a few of us made the mistake of going to the rail area up high before the caves. Once I figured out I was exploring the wrong area, the game got a good deal easier.
  21. It's hard to take someone seriously who uses childish nicknames for the President of the United States, and then is too lazy to even update them to be more topical.
  22. They did poke fun at that though, with Han Solo saying "It's bigger, we get it."
  23. To be fair, it did look for a short while like Shia Labeouf was going to be a decent actor. But then he turned out to be a crazy person. Ah, hollywood. I should add that a good chunk of the enjoyment I am getting out of this film comes from the fact I get to share it with my kids. I took my daughter to opening night, and she had a blast. She came home from school the next day with pictures of BB-8, R2D2, and the map that they had displayed. It is great that I can share that with her. She is reading a Princess Leia comic in her room right now.
  24. My wife had ACL surgery about 6 weeks ago, and we went wine tasting today. Given that she hasn't had anything to drink since the surgery, she became a pretty cheap date and then promptly passed out. Good times.
