I can totally see why this would look like reaching, because I suppose it looks pretty labored when written out; but I didn't feel like I had to labor to arrive at the conclusion. I also wouldn't ascribe this level of depth to any other episode of House I can think of. I usually enjoy House on a...

[SPOILERS have no expiration date to me, and this contains SPOILERS for House M.D.] While re-watching an episode of House, I noticed something interesting. I haven't yet found where anyone else has pointed this out, but I don't believe for a second that I'm the first one to notice it. In the...

My name comes from back when I was playing a lot of Fight Night. I'm honestly not cocky about gaming skill on anything else, but I will methodically destroy you on Fight Night. The name was meant to make opponents prejudge me as a someone who would be looking for the quick knockout, when my...

I'm not sure about the overall most overused phrase, but the phrase I think is most regularly used incorrectly is "uncanny valley", and I would consider it overused for that reason alone.

I wish you could download an optional version that doesn't include the 4k textures. That's where all this hard drive space is going.

V for Vendetta. The way Detective Finch has to uncover the truth and find V in the comic is very compelling to me; along with the reason V is what he is (the substance derived from ergot). V is supernaturally aware for what I see as a realistically grounded reason, and I really like that. I...

You don't recall. It's following the book, and it's certainly not "just to appear deep".

Visuals that don't tell a story? The slow pacing in the establishing shots is part of what it is being established - what life was like for the early men you are seeing, before the intervention of the monolith. The long space shots are similarly establishing the oppressively silent darkness of...

It reminds me of this in reverse: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uwu0gExNVuw . It's licensed music and Sony doesn't own it, but Microsoft totally knew that this song was associated with Little Big Planet back when they did this.

I don't know a lot about the physical health effects other than that it's bad for you lungs; but I do know that people who tell you it isn't habit forming are deluding themselves. It is absolutely habit forming, and with a long term, heavy habit you get to where you don't feel right without it...

Two guys walked into a bar. The third one ducked.

This shouldn't bother me nearly as much as it does, but this is just an awful, awful idea.

I wasn't any more specific than you. You said "like 10 seconds" and I said "about a twelfth". That's how long it's taken every time I've seen it, whether on my PS3, or on my bro and two friend's 360s. It's not flat out wrong; it's just how long it's taken. You're the only person I've seen say it...

I've just seen both systems load the game, and that's how long it took, consistently. 10 seconds is hyperbole.
