    Poll: Halo and stealing vehicles in midair-Yay or Nay?

    Speaking of map design, in the Reach campaign mission New Alexandria (aka the Falcon one), it's actually not that difficult to use sprint and leap off of the skyscrapers to jack the Covenant banshees below. The campaign mission programs them to fly relatively close to buildings for this purpose...

    A Challenge to Pro-#GamerGaters and Anti-#Gamergaters

    Heh, I was teetering off and on about replying to this thread; riding the inexorable analytical current that thrums through my mind about what my words actually have to contribute on a subject I've only watched and have not staked a single interest in, but the odd thing is literally anyone other...

    Phrases that piss you off

    Not too fond of "fur is murder", though to be fair I haven't heard it too often. Murder, at least here in the States but likely in other countries as well, has the definition of "an unlawful premeditated killing of a human being". It is, by definition, impossible to murder an animal under...

    Let's Play: Knights of the Old Republic II: Update 23: The Dark Side of the Force

    Well, another excellent job. Let's side with the settlers, because if we don't save Khoonda, Vrook will get the satisfaction of being right about you. We do not give Vrook the satisfaction of being right about anything. Plus, someone's got to be a role model Jedi and stand up for the...

    Let's Play: Knights of the Old Republic II: Update 23: The Dark Side of the Force

    Ah, the enclave's a bit of a crawl, but it's not that hard. Also, I am not looking forward to E3 this year. I actually haven't been keeping an ear to E3 for a while now. But! I wouldn't mind hearing from the Nintendo side of things. The Wii U and its kind need a shot of hype in the arm.

    What did You Guys Think of Godzilla 2014's Finale? (Spoilers Inevitable)

    Well, no. I don't know that. As a matter of fact, I think the opposite: they'd be wise not to mention it at all. It's something that separates fiction from reality, and while it would be fun to try to explain away, the better path would be to just ignore it and enjoy your work of fiction...

    What did You Guys Think of Godzilla 2014's Finale? (Spoilers Inevitable)

    Square-cube law aside (If I'm to accept the fact the creatures can apparently grow and gain mass simply by absorbing radiation, I'm going to just assume their physiology is such that: A. they do not require oxygen or conventional sustenance, and B. have or can develop bodies tough enough to...

    Let's Play: Knights of the Old Republic II: Update 23: The Dark Side of the Force

    ...And I just caught up with the Let's Play. Silly me for missing the vote, but let's see if I would have changed anything if I hadn't: Dantooine (It's interesting, but not as exciting as Onderon and Korriban can be so let's save those for the endgame and get this in as a nice midday lunch...

    Memory Exercise, What do you know?

    I'm the same way; a lot of the things I remember need to be prompted by something in order to become relevant enough to recall. The only things I keep on hand are ones I've recently used, or feel like bragging about when asked "what do you remember". To that end: > I've memorized the Major...

    The Apocalypse is here! What do you do on your last day?

    Hold on, I'm still on Earth during the apocalypse? Clearly my plans are going off prematurely, falling through, or otherwise not going according to plan. Oh well. I think I'm going to just pour myself some juice, kick back, and relax. Get a nice book to read. Maybe the bible; I'll start...

    Poll: If you had the ability to take over the world would you?

    I'd do it in a heartbeat. The first order of business would be stockpiling as many measures as I could get away with to keep myself in power and keep the rest of the world accountable to me. I will make sure the whole world knows this. And then I would implement absolutely no leadership...

    If you could become "augmented"...would you?

    Well, the core of the debate (which you guys don't seem to care about because screw it: we're all nerds and augmentations are sweet) is whether or not the tradeoff of replacing parts of your living body with machinery is worth the benefits. And honestly? I'm a bit on the line. I think I'd...

    Poll: Does something made enitrely for profit motive have any artistic merit?

    Well, it tends to screw poor people over quite handily. Anyway, My Little Pony was rebooted solely for sales, but since they hired an excellent writing staff I'd say the show has some artistic merit.

    The Geth/Android/Toaster/Slave theory

    It's my creation. It's making me toast. That is the underlying principle by which its existence will abide. Should I share and discuss human philosophy with it, or give it freedom to observe, interact with, or contribute to the world around it in its spare time is entirely a bonus. If...

    Gangnam Style nearly at 2 billion views

    I'm going to be honest, I don't find that as impressive as being the first video to hit one billion views. But hey. It did it again (which would make it both the first and third video to amass one billion views?) so that's cool.
