Heading out in the RV today for a couple days near the snow. I'm a bit nervous, I've never taken the RV to the snow, but we are only supposed to get about half a foot so it should be fine.

Played a game of FTL, and my crew suffocated to death while trying to fix the O2 system. Lovely.

So I'm a big fan of their comics, but I watched the cartoons, and they just didn't do it for me. Some stuff just doesn't need to cross over.

It's kind of a Navy tribute film, so if you like the Navy then it is definitely worth a watch.

Battleship - More fun than I expected. It was silly, but the cast seemed to be having a good time, and there was some cool ship stuff. I went in expecting little and that's what I got, just a fun action flick.

Awesome GD. I'm heading to Vegas in a few weeks for a hockey tournament, and I'm super excited.

That's a shame, I enjoyed the 4th Die Hard movie and thought it was a decent addition to the franchise. The whole kids angle seemed like a perfect way to go, given that the original Die Hards were pretty much focused on this guy who was having marital problems.

Nothing weird about that, the great thing about GoG is that they make sure that these games will run smoothly on most modern systems. Disc copies of older games often take a bit more work to get running.

Oh Jack Black's in it ? Feh, forget it then. I'm not sure who you could imagine would be better for the role than the lead guy of Tenacious D.

Brutal Legend is an awesome idea for a game, it features Jack Black and uses music better than pretty much every other game ever. It's actually a bit of a lackluster game in terms of gameplay, but I was able to forgive that because it simply dripped with metal rocksauce.

I always thought it was weird that Semin didn't do better, he was extremely talented in international play. edit: Just checked his stats, he did have some pretty great seasons. I guess it was just tough under the shadow of Ovechkin. Still, hopefully he will thrive in a new environment.

Alpha Protocol was an innovation of choice and consequence. Sadly it didn't have the impact where that will ripple out to other developers.

That is probably the most ridiculous thing I have even seen you post Malc. Cops put their lives on the line to protect people on a regular basis, your lack of respect for the entire profession makes you look very bad.

You are using a pretty broad brush to tar the entire LAPD, it's not very reasonable. The LAPD is gigantic. You could argue that it simply doesn't work as an effective law enforcement agency in its current form, and I would probably agree with you. But a den of evil? That's just hyperbole. Cops are people, and there are good cops and there are bad cops. Dorner was clearly the latter, because good cops don't go around trying to kill people.

I pledged At The Gates, that's a great time period for me and it looks like it will be a nice Civ style game.

You are taking Dorner's word on the corruption though. I am sure that such a large police department has major issues with corruption, but Dorner's voice is the last one I would listen to on that.

The Ice Age movies aren't really dumber than any of the other direct to DVD fare that is out there for children. It's pretty typical. Also my daughter woke up on Sunday and asked to watch Star Wars. I asked her which one and she said the one with Princess Leia. I've watched Goonies with her as well, but it's actually pretty scary for her. In fact a lot of the 80's kids movies are a bit edgy by today's standards.

To say that this has caused quite a ****ing ****storm is an understatement. I don't really get why the LAPD is even reopening his case. His actions have proved without a doubt that he was not fit to be an officer. I'm sure there is plenty of corruption in such a large police department, but he clearly never should have been allowed to wear a badge in the first place. While he was an officer, he was a responsible man that protected the people and tattle taled on his fellow officers when they would abuse. See that's you believing one side of a story. You are better off not believing either side of the story and looking at the results, which show he was clearly a disturbed individual. People lose jobs all the time for unfair crap, but most don't proceed to kill the family members of those they feel wronged them.

Huh, I always just assumed Oby was a satirist making fun of Russia. Bulgakov would be proud young man.

I'm pretty sure the Ice Age movies are made for children. While some films appeal to both adults and kids, some are really just for the youngins.

Dream just needs to go get a controller. The game played great on my PC with my Xbox 360 controller. Also DS2 came out in 2005, so expecting DS3 to play the same was not a very realist expectation. Different developer and publisher, different scale and scope, really it was Dungeon Siege in name of the king only! Thank goodness for that too, DS1 and 2 were lame.

Obsidian has a history of bug issues, but they've been vocal about their intent to change that. Dungeon Siege 3 showed that they can release a clean game. Regardless, I'd rather deal with a few bugs and play their games than some of the stable AAA titles that are popular today.

Last night I dove to block a shot and it got me right in the ear. Even with my helmet on, it still hurt like crazy. Now it has swelled up a bit, there is a blood blister on one part, and it is pretty red. We won 3-2 though, so worth it.

The $250 physical edition gets it too.
