No shame in working retail, not that I ever have, but my wife has for her whole career. Me? I am in one of the precious few industry positions where if someone disrespects me, I can tell them to go fuck themselves and not be fired. Anyone who's a big enough ass to disrespect me or my staff is...

I can understand why fans might want a remastered version of WC1-2, I just don't understand why they'd want to actually play them. Seriously, WC1 was about as bare bones as an RTS could get. I enjoyed WC2 as much as anyone back in the day, but much like trying to play so many old games out of...

I've not played it in some time but I will if they do a serious update. I like that they are focusing on gyms because that aspect of the game needed serious help but gym battles alone aren't enough to keep me interested. I hope they release new pokemon after a bit, I'll totally play again.

I greatly prefer Apple's mobile products myself but it doesn't surprise me at all that android owns the market. The reasons for this split are the same reasons for the windows/Mac split. Those reasons are also why I own nothing but apple mobile devices but also won't own a Mac. No fanboyism for...

While it was nice to be able to play as a passenger, it's worth losing that feature to increase vehicle safety. Americans get ragged on a bit for lack of gun safety but holy hell vehicles are a far worse culprit for totally avoidable deaths. I can lose passenger poke catching for the decrease in...

I just saw this for the first time about three weeks ago. I was all excited to come on here and say how you should explore this one. Imagine my delight! I was almost shocked by how good the father and son angle worked and gave the movie a ton of heart. Blind badass old dude fights off werewolves...

This is awful, I friggin' love FF's GW stuff. The baord games are fun and Rogue Trader is a blast!

Yup, DS9 is what I was on about. I consider it a second rate Sci Fi show because, while it had some of the very best episodes of any show I've ever seen (seriously, the way they revisited the Trouble With Tribbles from the original was a triumph!) it also had some LONG stretches of mediocrity...

I'm no Trump supporter but the whole reason I know about Trump U is because of the media so I'm not sure it's fair to say he's been given a pass on that. As for "racism" being a word without meaning, it really depends on how it's being used. When used as a rhetorical trump card in a way that...

It's a tough nut to crack, kind of like trying to go back and binge all of ST:TNG. I think of it as a sometimes show, a snack you can occasionally kick back and enjoy. It doesn't have the kind of top-notch character drama that make tier 1 sci fi shows so great but they do a solid job of evolving...

You're missing out. They got a lot of good mileage out of the whole Stargate idea. I consider it very solid second tier quality stuff over all - on par with classic Battlestar Galactica, V, DS9 or Farscape. Edit: And now that I've watched the video, I have to say that I freakin' love...

Bit ironic that, one the one hand, I complain about movies being dumbed down and on the other, I complain about people missing what I would think would be easy to understand stuff. So I guess I need to square that circle. I think it's worth saying that movies are better off leaving some...

I am a big fan of Snowpiercer but it is worth saying, as others have, that the film is not a science fiction film about people living on a train, it's allegory that sacrifices realism for imagery that makes a point. There's a ton in this film that requires studying its poetic symbolism rather...

The big difference I see between Bioshock and NMS is that, at least as far as I know, the Bioshock team didn't out and out say you could do things that they knew you'd never be able to do. I don't care that NMS has no multiplayer. Frankly, what would anyone even DO with multiplayer in NMS...

I think people are getting too caught up on the semantics of what constitutes a "lie." Even giving Hello Games a lot of leeway due to the way things invariably and inevitably change between promotion and release of a game, I don't think it can be successfully argued that they weren't...
