    So What Is Suicide Squad, Anyway?

    I wish the article had a little more in terms of character explanations, but the main reason I'm commenting is to lament the 8-page, ad revenue whoring, click bait nature of the article. This was 8 pages of fluff with ads attached.

    working in retail/service?

    The thing that upsets me about retail isn't corporate culture, it's the customers. I expect the corporation I work for to not give a shit about my wages or my hours, because they could easily give them to someone new. What I don't expect are the absolute animals that 1/10 of the population seems...

    Telltale Games

    Love them, The Wolf Among Us is amazing, and Clem is the shit.

    PlayStation 4 Is Already Profitable, Sony Says

    Is it bad that the first thing that came to me was that Sony should have invested in better hardware from the start? It seems way too early to be turning a profit.

    Poll: If you had the ability to take over the world would you?

    No way... sounds like way to much work. I'd just set up a monthly tithe system and everyone can have their freedoms left alone.

    Brick Mansions: Paul Walker Fights Back From The Grave

    I hate the revisionist history where Walker is concerned. When he was alive he was considered a shit actor that got a lucky break in the Fast and Furious series. That was all the acting he was good for, everything else he tried he was awful in.As someone above me pointed out- he was 40 years...

    The most worthless game mechanics/features

    The tower defense sections from Assassin's Creed (Revelations?). I know if you were proactive about clearing out Templar forces you could avoid it, but still, fuck that shit. Just let me do parkour and murder someone from 200 ft in the air.

    What Happened at GAME_JAM?

    After reading one of the articles you mentioned, I'm kind of disappointed in this article. Half of it was your take on standard reality t.v. and the other page just skimmed the surface of ONE of the mistakes Game_Jam made. I guess that I was just expecting more from you based on how great your...

    Zero Punctuation: inFAMOUS: Second Son - Bad Son Good Son

    This was actually the first Infamous game I've played, (360 to the PS4), and I really enjoyed it. I went evil for my first playthrough and I freaking loved the spray paint sections. There was something satisfying in the feedback they gave you. This was the first game I've bought so far that...

    Poll: Who here still plays GTA Online?

    I'm still pretty bitter about the lack of promised features in Online...cough, cough... heists. It just seems so poorly handled by Rockstar. However, it's GTA so no one cared that they didn't deliver as promised because they got their precious GTA again.

    Walmart Fired me today for insabornation

    Stories like this actually make me feel better about working at Barnes and Noble. Aside from managers and head cashiers everyone else is a part-time bookseller and can be used in any department. We get slotted into positions we're better at (I work receiving) and we cover each other all the...

    Polaris/Maker Studio's GAME_JAM controversy

    You could tell something was going to happen after they force devs to change/alter their appearance/mannerisms to better show the Mountain Dew brand. These people weren't there for Pepsi, they were there to make games. Maybe they should have let them do what they were good at. Also, apparently...

    The Great Internet Half-Life 3 Hype Poll

    Man, episodic gaming is the future! ...Guys? Hello...? Did we forget what that meant somewhere along the way? As an outsider to HL (played a few hours of Orange Box) Valve just seems really scummy over this affair. You can't have a huge cliffhanger and then not talk about the next game FOR...

    Facebook Buys The Escapist for $90 Million - Update

    Seriously? People bought this? How gullible are some people? Who in their right mind would pay $90 mil for this site. Although... the adds couldn't possibly get any worse then they already are (hopefully) and The Escapist already has so many clickbait articles that it should be a very smooth...

    Star Wars Canon: Just How Realistic Are the Single-Biome Planets?

    Was this something people cared about after watching Star Wars? Out of everything else we could be talking about... or have we exhausted every other Star Wars related topic? Can't we just say that they used space magic or something? I mean, they have tech and knowledge froms dozens of alien...
