I like video games and all, but I don't really get the developer love.

Volourn just trolled Mother Earth, awesome

The Sorcerer's Apprentice - I watched it with my daughter. I expected more whimsy.

I was going to address Nightshape, but I think Orogun summed it about as perfectly as you can. I enjoy watching Christian Bale act, but he is part of a group of actors like Mel Gibson that I just don't think I would like on a personal level. That's why a guy like Bruce Campbell has so much appeal, he has done some great stuff and he seems like he'd be a good guy to have a few beers with.

Sorry to hear that. I hope she is able to make a full recovery.

Yes, my entire view of the Alien franchise is now changed. Gross.

Telltale didn't tell Tale that their game came out? Weird.

Great, another bot. Seriously Lyr, where have you been? And where are you hiding Nick's body?

Did you play the first one? I'll be honest, I doubt it would have been such a great game for me if it weren't for all the carry-over plotlines.

Oh man, plumbers, electricians, and mechanics make bank.

You played with Pavelski? Awesome, I'm a big fan of his. He's Mr. Clutch in the playoffs.

You can use your degree to get quite a few jobs outside of teaching and academia. The possibilities are fairly endless. It is a door opener.

Well, I have a degree in History and I couldn't be happier. I never imagined I would be a teacher, either, I just fell into the profession and absolutely loved it. Also, the most important thing is to have the degree, it opens a lot of doors no matter what the major is. You will not regret pursuing what you enjoy.

In all my years of teaching, the one thing I've learned is that the education system has little to do with student success. It's all about the parent community.

The Devils have had the craziest season I think I have ever seen in professional sports.

The two books he wrote are pretty awesome as well. If Chins Could Kill is the better of the two.

While I agree those are decent labels for pirates, the amount of boasting I see online from people who pirate makes me question the dishonesty part. Many of these people are surprisingly candid about their illegal activity.

ENTITLEMENT It sums up the whole act of digital piracy pretty well.

Well, I do agree that the majority of pirates are young kids with entitlement issues. Most of us here have admitted to piracy in our 'young and dumb' years.

Of course they did, indie games are terrible. If I had paid money for some retro-platform rubbish made by some tit who thinks 'bart simpsons vs the space mutants' is the greatest game ever, Id kill myself. Couldn't have said it better myself, ****ing indie trash. Where are the real games? Uh...it isn't like a necessity to play every game ever released. If you don't want to drop a buck on a few indie games because they are crap, then why play them at all?

Not to be a negative nelly, but there was an indie pack that was selling for whatever you wanted to pay awhile back, and people still pirated it.

I did most of my Valentine's stuff this weekend. I made pork chops with apple sauce, cous cous, and veggies for dinner tonight, and my wife and daughter just headed out for a pilates class. Me and my son are just relaxing and enjoying the quiet. The classroom was a bit crazy today, dang candy-centric holidays

Heck, I watch Army of Darkness with my 4-year old. It's pure comedy.

I'm not sure why a person would spend time defending piracy, and then not pirate themselves. I mean, you've already justified it in your own head, it's not like it is hard to find pirate sites to download from. So yeah, it is a reasonable assumption indeed.

yeah, they should be looking for ways to prevent it, Steam is a good example. not only because of digital distribution, but mostly thanks to achievements, friend lists etc. Steam is very much a form of DRM.
