  1. Yes, what could go wrong with an out of control, lawless government? Well, let's look at a country slightly ahead of us on the curve: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/crime/11059138/Rotherham-In-the-face-of-such-evil-who-is-the-racist-now.html That's a terrible story, but you understand that we can point to terrible situations like that in both the US and the UK throughout history, right? Sex trafficking has existed for centuries, cults, serial killers, etc. We had slavery, we had segregation, we've had lynch mobs and riots. But we also have modern statistics that show crime falling, we have better technology and responses to bad situations, and we have a society which is much more open and tolerant. So you've got a long way to go if you want to make the end is nigh argument, because our history ain't all that peachy and we are still chuggin' along.
  2. Geez, the Saint's Row people are brilliant bastards. I'm hooked. I need to continue SR4 actually.
  3. That is solid gold. His responses are good, and then there are just some golden retorts.
  4. My Ford Fusion hybrid is pretty fantastic, and I bought it used for like $14k. Doesn't get you the tax benefits, but 40 mpg is a pretty nice break when it comes to buying gas.
  5. http://witchwind.wordpress.com/2013/12/15/piv-is-always-rape-ok/ This is what we are dealing with folks. They can not be reasoned with, have no problem destroying lives to further their agenda, and are likely in need of mental health services. Yikes, it's like I fell down the rabbit hole reading that.
  6. I agree, it's very entertaining. The opening theme is one of the best I've seen.
  7. In a moment of weakness, I bought a PS4 and Madden 15. It is pretty nice.
  8. The amount of money I spend on a game never affects how long I'll play it, some of my $5 games have kept my attention raptly to the end, some of my full price games barely kept me engaged for a couple hours. Granted I'll never buy a sequel for full price if that happens, but I don't force myself to play something I don't want. Life is too short, and there are too many great games to play to be overly committed to one.
  9. I really doubt it will ever become mainstream. Heck even 3D is already losing the steam it gained from Avatar.
  10. That was an insane article. I'm not even sure it can be called an article. Time to restart the tone it down campaign.
  11. This is the achievement you get for finishing the game, and only 3.4% of the players who own the game on Steam have it. How great can the game be if people don't even bother to finish it. It is a very long game. All I care about is if the game is fun while I play it, I dont have some obligation to complete everything. There are a ton of games that this holds true for.
  12. Which one? Wind Waker? No, A Link to the Past. I do want to buy Wind Waker but it's a bit pricey. It was fun playing A LInk to the Past and telling my daughter how I used to play it when I was only a bit older than her. I still remember quite a bit from the intro after all these years.
  13. Grabbed Legend of Zelda off the Wii U store last night, it's fantastic.
  14. Maybe not the best time to drop off the mail?
  15. It seems like the industry has gotten far away from really recognizing developers. Roberta Williams, Jane Jensen, Lori Cole, Linda Currie...these were all big names in development in the 80's. Now the only people that get any recognition tend to be independent or on small teams, the big developers hide everyone away. I'm not sure what my point is, I just think it's odd.
  16. Assange is too high profile to just get quietly locked away. Also Manning and Snowden are not good comparisons. They were both working for the US military when they gathered their intelligence. The circumstances are entirely different.
  17. If anyone believes a US court could actually prosecute Assange, they do not have a very good understanding of the US legal system. On the slim chance he was actually extradited and some dumb politician was able to exert enough influence to get him charged, it would be a big circus and end in a lucrative book and movie deal for Assange and his lawyers.
  18. As I've said, there has been very little attention to it in the mainstream media. It has an 87 on metacritic. Just because some peons are clamoring about it on tiny forums hardly makes it overrated.
  19. Ok, so I meants viril. Thanks peanut gallery.
  20. "On the ring boulevard there was an old cream-colored two-storey house that stood in the depths of a withered garden which was separated from the sidewalk by a carved wrought-iron fence." "The Master and Margarita" by Mikhail Bulgakov, always on my desk at work. I have been feeling the effects of age a bit, I'm not as viral as I once was. Weird.
  21. Video game journalism has pretty much always been terrible. I don't think it has much to do with the inappropriate relationship between journalists and creators, I think it is because they are all terrible writers with sophomoric sensibilities. The only magazine ever worth reading was CGW, and honestly the writing wasn't that good. They just had the benefit of editors that weren't totally out of touch with the real world.
  22. I just want to point out Romero is cooler and more talented than any of the tools being talked about here.
  23. Why is there a Brazzers logo at the bottom of Keyrock's weird schoolgirl game? Not that I know what Brazzers is.
  24. I watched a couple episodes of Bojack Horseman, it's pretty well done. Will Arnett is his typical entertaining self. The beginning credits remind me of something...I can't figure it out.
