    Warner Bros/Hasbro Teaming Up For New Dungeons & Dragons Movie

    Maybe the movie will focus on the episode where the kids met a Nazi pilot, who eventually helps them save the day.

    So Pokemon... Where to next?

    I still want a Pokemon sports sim, where you lead and manage a customizable gym and have to crush the dreams of every 10-year-old-hotshot that thinks he good enough to face the elite four. The battles are the same, but the game around it is tweaked to match the different goals. Also your...

    Not having the time to listen.

    This is an easy way to burn a lot of bridges quickly. So no, I don't think I could ever be convinced to do this. There's must be thousands of phrases that send the message "I don't want to talk" that let people save a little face. You're never entitled to give anyone your time, but just...

    What if the last Two Games you played share the same Universe?

    Splatoon and Uncharted Waters: New Horizons. Squid kids take to the high seas and engage in acts of piracy and exploration. It'd be the freshest crew to ever sail the seven seas.

    Why are books so boring?

    I mean, if it is the act of reading more than the stories, you might have luck with audio books. I know a lot of people that can't stand to sit down with a book but will listen to one read aloud. That said, it always comes down to a "different strokes for different folks" argument. I love...

    Early Access Has Ruined Indie Development

    People that are lazy now have a means by which it is easier to be lazy and still release some sort of commercial product. It doesn't stop good indie developers from being good indie developers though. The problem is that early access is a business tactic, and a fairly new one for the game...

    Marvel Sued by Intern in Class Action Wage Lawsuit

    The problem here is that when internships must be paid, there is very little incentive to have interns at all. You might as well find regular employees. Interns generally won't have much experience, so an employee wouldn't have to have much either. They aren't going back to school presumably...

    Game series you would like to see made into an 'mmo-like' experience.

    Normally I'm against MMOs, but Megaman: Battle Network was basically set in an MMO, so it'd just be removing the middle man.

    Tracy Morgan Sues Wal-Mart Over Deadly Crash

    An employer is responsible for the actions of an employee while they are on the clock. I suppose you could try to sue the driver instead, but Walmart has the same legal culpability and you can sue them for a lot more. Also, I cannot imagine a world where they do not settle this out of court.

    Feed Dump: Man Poops on Floor of Bank

    Hey, now I know what bank my former roommate uses. That was a year in my life.

    Shovel Knight Review - Digging For Trouble

    I sort of agree with the medusa head complaint, but from a different angle. Some of them are easy to counter with sub-weapons in such a way that you don't come into danger. However, a lot of the medusa enemies clip through walls, which means you have to wait for them to come into the open...

    North Korea Threatens War With US Over Seth Rogen Comedy

    Not that I support bowing to threats, but that doesn't seem like a very good movie. Maybe Kim Jong Un just has really strong opinions about film.

    The Big Picture: Link Be A Lady

    Link was made right-handed in the Wii version of Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword, to make his movements more immediately relatable to the majority right-handed population. They weren't so attached to the idea of a left-handed hero that they didn't change it. If the developers decide they...

    Is googling a sin?

    If you're having fun, you are having fun. It might not have been possible to use the internet, but plenty of companies sold guides for games, and popular games could spread information by word of mouth. Not every gamer in the 90s solved every puzzle alone. Also, some people are better at...

    NSA + FBI Files Leaked, Massive Snooping on Millions of Americans

    On the bright side, they must surely know what I want for my birthday and know exactly where to ship it. Also, in regards to the thread not having attention, I think people are starting to assume every facet of their lives are public knowledge, and between stuff like this and facebook, they're...
