    The Big Picture: Polarity Contest

    For the Jimquisition yes. Would still be awesome to see him back with something, even if it's not for his tentpole (innuendo intended).

    A Note From Your Friendly Neighborhood Editor in Chief

    The articles I'm enjoying the most at the moment are Robert Rath's Critical Intel. He is constructive about just about everything and always insightful. Shamus Young can also be interesting but will always be catering to a niche technically-oriented audience.

    On the PC Master Race and the Language Police

    Now I'm imagining a Star Trek crossover where the aliens are prissy french robot-cyborgs, wearing berets and proudly proclaiming "We are the bourge! Resistance is futile, you silly Federation kniggets."

    The Big Picture: Age of Heroes

    In my opinion even Michael Bay vehicles like Transformers and TMNT share enough traits to be benefiting from and empowering the same tsunami. If Transformers 4 can rake in a billion, there is no way even a sure winner like Batman completely failing will stop the genre.

    On the PC Master Race and the Language Police

    Interwebs cant spell gud. And you want them to attempt "Bourgeois" and "Bourgeoisie"?

    The Big Picture: Age of Heroes

    Goodness people - if all you are taking from this is "He mentioned Dark Knight Rises/Man of Steel with Green Lantern/Catwoman", then not only have you missed his point; you have proved it as well. Bob's point is that all the criticism that could be used against superhero movies as a GENRE has...

    Why Video Games Need Their Own Programming Language

    This seems relevant to the discussion at hand. In my limited game coding experience, C++ is a mixed bag. It still gets used because some of it is exactly what you want to code in. But then a lot of other things aren't.

    Star Control 2 - Interstellar Awesome

    So glad this amazing game had finally been reviewed. How many of you out there actually started with Star Control I? It was the only one my old PC could run, back in the days of Hercules/[PHIX.EXE] CGA. There were actually differences to the space melee.

    Mark Hamill Reprising Villain Role For The Flash

    That's exactly what I miss in the Flash TV series. Adult heart, as opposed to teenage drama. I always wondered what a live-action series written by Bruce Timm and the other DCAU guys would be like.

    Gallery: Here's Your Live-Action Attack On Titan Movie Cast

    I thought Mikasa was special because there were so few Asians around. Is this like Justin Chatwin as Goku? (In a broad sense - almost nothing is as bad as that.) [Ninja's by Saltyk] It's funny how attached we can become to certain actors in roles. Can you imagine another Gandalf than Sir...

    8 Games From The 90s You Should Have Played

    Star Control 2? Heroes of Might and Magic 2? Both have modern remakes you can play, even on Windows 8 (Free Heroes 2 runs on Android too!) http://sc2.sourceforge.net/ http://sourceforge.net/projects/fheroes2/

    Rumor: Sorry Folks, There Will be no DirectX 12 Support For Windows 7 - Update

    But surely devs will release games that support the greatest number of users? To increase their chance of sales? So they won't take up DX12 (without some stellar features) since it cuts into their bottom line?

    When Jim Carrey Ruled the World

    And his turn in A Series of Unfortunate Events was ... interesting.

    Robot Fights For Its Humanity in Chappie Trailer

    Not when you're South African. It feels like a gag that could wear thin quickly. Unfortunately yes. Strangely enough, they would only work if playing their caricature's completely straight, whereas their music is all about being a parody. Being a South African, I have to defer opinion on...
