I really dislike using the term evil in any context except fiction. Even calling Hitler evil is a mistake in my opinion because it completely writes off all the circumstances and motivations that led him to do what he did, which makes it more likely to happen again. Calling a person or group...

The game's title is "Get Even". I'd imaging they're trying to distance themselves from any kind of possibility of being linked to any kind of retributive violence. That's the only link I can think of though.

I don't see how a brief and easy-to-miss conversation between two npc's is "hamfisted". A trans character blurting their backstory--that's a bit hamfisted. But even Bioware acknowledged that one was a little goofy and insensitive.

I think Totalbiscuit said it best when he said that if ever there was a 7/10 game in the truest sense, this would be it. The problem is that too many people see this as a binary state. The game is either amazing or the worst game ever. How many people who would have *actually* enjoyed the game...

Really we'll just have to wait and see. All we have right now is one Kotaku article claiming unidentified sources and whatever we can parse from the canned EA response.

In regards to the reorganization, I've heard a lot of people saying that this is somewhat normal for companies. I'll admit I don't have any firsthand knowledge of the industry, but the argument goes that you don't need more than a skeleton crew to work on patches/dlc and that in the interim, the...

The article specifically states that this does not mean there's no more Mass Effect. It only says that they're not IMMEDIATELY jumping into a sequel. Just a few snippets from the Kotaku article that completely contradict the sensationalist headline: "BioWare Montreal will also continue to...

You're thinking of the Gear VR. The Rift plugs into your computer and has its own screen. It's a bit more powerful than a cellphone.

I didn't play much of the previous Fallout games, so I can't attest to how much better they are, but I will say this: having a feral charge me in a blind rage and then fall over after hitting me because his body isn't coordinated enough to keep up with its own momentum is an outstanding little...

"Actually, Officer, if you'll just take a look at this chart...."

Oh man, I've been through Arkansas twice, just passing through...it's gorgeous but both times I felt a little unnerved. Couldn't put my finger on what it was. It felt very...different.

I'm Texan, so of course I'm going to vote Texas (Only ever lived here except for going to college in Illinois.) A lot of people are turned off by that whole Texas bravado thing, but you have to understand that very few Texans REALLY take that seriously, even if they play into it. Yes we're proud...

Well, I don't have the flexibility to kiss my ass goodbye, so I guess not...

It was the first and so far only game I got refunded with Steam's new refund policy. I don't think it was made clear enough that it's a SIMULATOR game. I was nowhere near prepared for the flight mechanics. The controls infuriated me, the tutorial was probably the most unhelpful I've ever seen...

That little bit of skin is called the "quick".
