Someone may have already pointed this out, but you stole that joke from Aaron Diaz of Dresden Codak. http://dresdencodak.tumblr.com/ Come on, man. Credit where credit's due.

BATTLEFRONT 2 HAS FIRST-PERSON!?!?!?

Pretty much. I laughed when Lasky walked up to Chief and said "You know, I was sent down here with orders to stop you from leaving." Alone. To stop the seven foot tall super-soldier in shielded power armour. Who can punch eight foot tall monkey monsters to death and move at speeds that would...

Racism is always an illogical motivation, but there's no reason it can't be done well. He doesn't believe that humans (the species in general, which apparently has not significantly changed since his time) are capable of ruling the universe without fucking it up. Not that the game ever makes...

Guys, I agree that Halo 4's story sucked for all kinds of reasons, but the Didact's motivation was made perfectly clear. He doesn't want humanity running the universe, because he's a racist who thinks only Forerunners should do that. Did none of you catch all his ranting about the Mantle of...

The Didact wanted to stop humanity from "ascending" and obtaining "the Mantle of Responsibility", remember? He talks about it in the cutscene immediately after he wakes up, I'm not sure how you missed it. Granted, it's is still a little silly, because humans are the best species available to...

I'm not a professional writer or author (yet) so I can't claim any expertise beyond amateur level. But I HATE it when people think that writing is some easy past-time anyone can get into, or alternately, that you require some innate genius. Good writing is incredibly complicated, but so many...

"Someone else would have come up with it eventually" is not a valid argument. You can say that about every invention in existence, including Edison's. Yes, someone else would probably have EVENTUALLY figured it out, but that doesn't matter. What's important is that we acknowledge and award the...

To be honest, that did not interest me at all. The basic idea is nice, but the colours and art design were drab, dull and unappealing to me. Way too much blue. (Although they use contrasting colors pretty well, I'll give them that). And what little gameplay we saw didn't look all that...

Yes, Tesla was a little mad. Bonkers. Crazy. Delusional, even. But that shouldn't invalidate his truly incredible contributions to humanity. His genius helped shape the modern world as it is today, and he's easily one of the greatest inventors in history. Dismissing all of that because he had...

Woo, first post! Do I really like or enjoy the arc? No, not really. Does it reach TWILIGHT level? No, not even close. Those books have horrible, horrible messages that I truly believe are harmful to the human race (especially their target audience), and the writing is some of the most awful I've...
