They could be onto something here. This kind of golf should finally be interesting to watch.

Which is ironic, considering watching Hobbit trilogy takes more time than reading the original. Hell, you could easily finish RotK if you skip appendixes. ...and if you imagine you managed to skip garbage "gastric funnies", hamfisted "love story", Azog being there for no reason whatsoever...

Agreed - but this is what we get. I think "slacktivism" exists to decribe this particular subset more accurately. There's a comparable distance between "what we get" and "what some people would expect" when we are talking about intellectual value of many pieces produced by "game critics"...

Might be either, husband flip-flopped on this issue and changed testimony to "3rd party had no idea". Which is even more compelling reason for respecting veil of privacy. Public is now capable of learning about many embarassing facts, while being partially or completely unaware of their...

Meh, the alternative is either doing, effectively, nothing to protect privacy or deferring to millions of people, who clicked to see Bolea having sex "therefore it's newsworthy". Which is getting dangerously close to "having a bigger mob". I'd like to think "even" jury can provide something...

Hey, don't hate on Spider-man, he is an early adopter of your body cam idea:) Granted, he made a quick buck on the side, selling his photos, but still, not bad for The Menace ^^

Not only because of that. Turns out this particular model was (and is) far more common and normal. I guess people who tend to preach/parrot some FOTM definition of independence/maturity/whatever only make themselves even more oblivious. For example: Note "traditional", as in: "what is...

The kind of journey where EA dies of dysentery? I support this.

Welp, it seems Hasbro is combining Monopoly with DLC. Combine that with pursuing fans of different movies. There's exactly zero reasons for them to include more than 4 figures. For now. The rest looks like trying to reach the most profitable demographic first. Big deal.

If Internet experiences some sort of a revolution and DRM-via-streaming becomes possible, then consumers will also be able to stream to each other. So, basically: - remote desktop-ish tool, - a way to safely and effortlessly set up a profile that gives no access outside of selected games...

A month after KotOR has been released? Absolutely. A month after KotOR 2 has been released? Nope. Obsidian outplayed Bioware at their own game. Now? Depends. A "spiritual sequel" kind of game? TL:DR version - "Fuck off, EA". A game that functions as alternate path starting at the...

That said, circa 25% of their workforce (and we are not talking low-level QA etc) are from "international" pool - which also means "international money", even when accounting for lower living costs (ehh, though not necessarily so obvious in metropolitan area) and they had to relocate as well...

It took hiring Yoda, spooky, isolated planet and a strong conviction to become a Jedi with Luke. Leia has neither - because even if we put her on Dagobah, Luke is not going to exploit it to the full extent as a teacher, due to still being clueless about its properties. It's not just "too old" -...

Also, if we consider what KotOR and KotOR 2 said about consequences, that balance had a net negative effect on Jedi. Having Force - sensitive character in a middle of a war, participating and contributing to the carnage, bearing responsibility for mass destruction and having to act as a general...

That pic... the only thing missing is EA hiring Palpatine to explain "beneficial lack of depth" during a press conference. I might be even slightly more inclined to accept his excuses rather than those from "EA Exec".
