    The Big Picture: Off Target - Don't Censor Me Part 2

    Really Bob? you start your video and go straight to a Fallacy of Relative Privation and expect to be taken seriously? (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fallacy_of_relative_privation) Everyone would be better off watching TotalBiscuit's video on this issue and see why he is still on the side of...

    Dungeons & Dragons Reveals Three Starter Set Monsters

    Best thing about 5E is that it's not 3.5 :p (won't that system die already?)

    Escape to the Movies: Man of Steel

    One part that this movie those better than Superman II is Clark's reaction to the bully truck driver. Remember what Reeve did to the bully? He kicked his ass! not very noble or heroic. And what does Cavill do to the bully? Not gonna spoil it, but he certainly didn't give him a concussion. But...

    Bioshock Writer Fed Up With Industry

    I dunno, I can understand her frustration, but from the way she speaks it seems to me that when she set out to be a writer she wanted to be a novelist but had to "settle" with writing for video games. I mean, maybe she had to go through the grinder to polish her skill and she is ready to move...

    The Perfect Non-Gamer Girl

    Congratulations man! I just got married last October to my Non-Gamer gf, and I have to tell you, I wouldn't want it any other way :) That's not to say that she doesn't have a geeky side to her, she reads a lot of genre fiction and she loves Star Wars just as much as I do, we enjoy watching The...

    It Never Ends

    Thanks a lot Bob for posting this! The thing that bothers me the most about the current discussion is people trying to shame me for enjoying the female figure (in any media). But then again I guess my views coincide more with the "sex positive" feminist than anything else. More diversity in...

    Commentary on "Fire and Blood"

    @Noelveiga: have you read the books or are you just passing judgement on them based on a TV adaptation? because if you have read the books then okay I can entertain your points and have a discussion on them, but if you haven't then all I can say is "Don't judge a book by it's TV adaptation"...

    Episode 10: "Fire and Blood"

    Great write up :) Just wanted to comment that the sword that killed Ned was actually his own, Ice, Ser Ilyn Payne just said "yoink" and claimed it for himself (which is yet another constant reminder for Sansa that she is deep in enemy territory)

    Commentary on ?Baelor?

    I know it's been said before, but I just wanted to share my thoughts :) In book one the only fighting we ever see was Tyrion's small part before he got wounded, and even then we don't actually see how the battle is going until someone retells the whole battle to Tyrion when he regains...

    Baelor

    The Dothraki are feared while on horseback, remember that earlier in the season they say that King Bob would be stupid enough to meet them head on in the open field? One on one they don't stand much of a chance against a well trained armored knight (although Bronn may have something to say...

    Porting From PC to Console Is Doing Things Backwards, Says Rage Dev

    The Witcher 2 is not even out on the XBox yet, that says that CD Projekt actually had the lead game be on the PC and they just took some design considerations to port it over to the consoles, I don't think you will see any critic say that The Witcher 2 suffers from "consoleitis" (which so many...

    Porting From PC to Console Is Doing Things Backwards, Says Rage Dev

    Who the fuck is Todd Hollenshead? Any gamer should know that the brains behind anything id does is Carmack, and Carmack (during an E3 interview) said that looking forward they should be developing for the PC first and deploying on consoles. The video that many people have linked in the thread...

    Commentary on ?The Pointy End?

    As I recall, Septa Mordane wasn't killed during the raid, she was caught and then they executed her and hung her head, I think because they couldn't get any useful information out of her regarding Ned's "betrayal". In other news, anybody else excited that they didn't show Syrio's supposed...
