    FBI Can't Win: Apple Engineers Will Quit Before Unlocking iPhone

    The argument I've heard is that they ARE able to work together to hack a cell phone but the technology they would have to use to do it would be in the hands of the CIA if it does exist, if it does exist it would be very much in the interests of the CIA to keep it secret. If they do in fact find...

    Where are all the first person rpg's?

    It's not strictly a first person RPG but there is a game that breaks these limitations, Mount and Blade: Warbands. 1. The melee combat is tense and strategic, the game actually takes into account your speed in relation to the direction of your swing, so lunging forward while thrusting will...

    Star Wars Force Awakens Spoiler Filled discussion thread (no spoiler tags, you've been warned)

    It at least makes the implication that they retreated, why else would fighters be dropping fire works over endor if the imperial fleet destroyed the rest of them. If you watch the special edition edits you have even more proof, as you see people all over celebrating, this shows that it wasn't...

    Solar Farm Rejected For Fear of Too Much Energy Sucking

    Jesus, think about how efficient those solar panels must be in order to do that. Then think about how many wind turbines we'd need to make Joe Barton's prediction about slowing down the wind true.

    Disney Wants to Release a New Star Wars Every Year Indefinitely

    So they are going with the room of monkeys infinitely trying to write Shakespeare approach then? Well at least we know they'll be successful, the question is: when?

    Why wouldn't an AI just decide to do it's job?

    Well, that's because it makes a good film. The real danger of AI in the real world is not that it will develop into a malicious entity that sets out to destroy us, it's that if given enough power it may inadvertently destroy us before we have a chance to even figure out that something is...

    Fallout 4 Review - Post-Apocalyptic Warlord Simulator 2287

    Don't forget cynicism and sarcasm as well : )

    Fallout 4 Review - Post-Apocalyptic Warlord Simulator 2287

    Somewhat? It's a completely new format, in a new setting developed by a totally different team, it's a spin-off. It's like saying that X-Com:Enforcer was a totally legitimate sequel to X-Com Apocalypse because it had X-Com in the title and had things that looked like sectoids, snakemen and...

    Fallout 4 Review - Post-Apocalyptic Warlord Simulator 2287

    Hahaha, but in that case they DO resemble the old ones in mechanics and gameplay. Even The Elder Scrolls:Arena closely resembles Skyrim. You guys are trying to make the case that Baldur's Gate is Neverwinter because they share locations, enemies and items. It's just not the case, they're totally...

    Fallout 4 Review - Post-Apocalyptic Warlord Simulator 2287

    Yeah, I'd argue that Fallout 3 was based on Fallout.

    Fallout 4 Review - Post-Apocalyptic Warlord Simulator 2287

    Perhaps the Lion King is more palatable, but in my opinion it doesn't challenge the audience as much, it doesn't ask as many existential questions, and some would say that those questions are the purpose of art in the first place. Which one is better is a matter of philosophy and preference but...

    Fallout 4 Review - Post-Apocalyptic Warlord Simulator 2287

    The Lion King was based on Hamlet, but it has obvious differences and simplifications to appeal to a wider and younger audience.

    Fallout 4 Review - Post-Apocalyptic Warlord Simulator 2287

    Sounds like a Bethesda game, I'm extremely miffed by the simplifications though. This honestly sounds more like a bright and easy STALKER. Yes. It's like saying you like Shakespeare because you like Lion King.

    XCOM 2 Will Push Your Resistance Movement To Its Limits

    The whole resistance thing is incredibly cliche in this game environment. I honestly could not count how many games I've played in the past decade where I've been part of a group called "The resistance" or "the rebels" all ways for saying not "The Man". I sort of feel that the X-Com games...
