She wasn't just in unconscious. Pretty sure she was in hospital at the time too. Not sure why you stopped watching anime because of one scene though. Seems pretty weird.

I'll grant you that ZA was basically a rehash, but Ragnaros, Nefarian and Zul'Gurub were all completely new boss encounters even if they were the same characters. Comparing the Raggy/Nef encounters from their MC/BWL to their FL/BWD selves is...crazy. With Raggy especially they're many magnitudes...

What version of WoW have YOU been playing? They completely redid Azeroth with Cataclysm. What. I admit I haven't really read much of the War40K lore, but I did read the Space Wolf books and played the Dawn of War games. Unless something changed since those, they acquired their Space Marines...

Slow news day Escapist? ^ Pretty much. Didn't Blizzard even give a shout out of thanks to Games Workshop in the end credits of StarCraft 1? I vaguely recall that. For the record, the original WC3 DotA map was based off of a StarCraft map. It is quite possible that we would've seen MOBA...

I read a story recently about a teen who bragged about murdering an elderly (60+) person on Facebook. By those sort of standards, failing to remove the EXIF data is positively genius level.

Really? 'cos the Assassin's Creed wikia says it was a "Colonial force" [http://assassinscreed.wikia.com/wiki/Connor_Kenway#Biography] who did that. But hey, Colonists, British troops, no difference, right?

As noted, he had a Muslim father - and a Christian mother. His religious beliefs have never been stated as far as a I know (nor have Al Mualim's). Considering the theme of the game was focused more on the Control/Safety of the Templars vs. the Freedom/Chaos of the Assassins, religion simply...

First of all, Connor's meant to be a Native American. Historically, he should hate the Colonists for what they're doing/did to his people. Second, I don't think Altair's religion is ever outright stated. According to the Assassin's Creed wikia he had a Christian Mother and a Muslim Father...

As someone above pointed out, we didn't see an advert to commemorate the Her Majesty's Jubilee which came almost at the same time as the 4th of July. Do you not think that it would've provided a golden opportunity to show off their evenhandedness? Yet they didn't take it. Interesting, no?

To all those who say "It was released on the 4th. OF COURSE IT'S GOING TO BE OVER THE TOP PATRIOTISM." I will ask you this: Which is more patriotic- Respecting your roots with accurate historical knowledge, seeking to educate people about the truth behind why your rebelled, or covering them...

Remember all that good will EA got in 2007-2009 sort of period where they started promoting more new IPs (Mirror's Edge being a major name) and generally letting Activision take the head of the "Hated Gaming Supercompany"? I wonder what happened to that.

I don't have an issue with AC3 having the protagonist kill British people. I have an issue with AC3 being marketed (and possibly actually playing) as Mel Gibson's The Patriot in game form. The colonial rebellions weren't a cut and dry "Colonies=Good, Britain=Bad" situation and there was a...

Might pick up the Persona titles. For Haruhi's sake though Atlus, please release an English version of the Endless Frontier sequel. I love the gameplay but I love the dialogue and story too ;-;

Two pages and only one indoctrination theory mention? Has it fallen from grace as swiftly as it rose? Regardless: The Indoctrination Theory is a cute little thing for the ending sequence...but a horrible thing for the Epilogue. As for me, get rid of the Mass Relay destruction and...

I got it. I would've expected a more direct or 'punny' title if he died.
