    Poll: Dark souls and the lack of cut-scenes, a positive or negative point ?

    The thing to remember about Dark Souls is that in addition to the main game, there are several sub-games to be played, if you like. A really big one is learning the lore. See, this is a world that's kind of moved on. You're not in the middle of the story. You've shown up hundreds of years...

    Movie Defense Force: Paranormal Activity

    I think you may be defending against the wrong arguments here. My complaint about PA as a franchise is that it's boring. It's not that the scares are "cheap" or what have you. It's just dull. The core of the issue seems to be that they're shooting it like an episode of Ghost Hunters which...

    Magic: The Gathering Pro Jon Finkel Confirmed for Expo

    Maybe he could chat up a female expo attendee and make some good progress and then get shot down when she finds out he plays magic. And then she could blog about it. - J

    Could use some help

    So every day at work, my co-worker and I will exchange emails in some other language. Sometimes French, sometimes binary, earlier today she sent me something in Wookie. I've always been able to identify what she was writing... up until now. She sent this: Drttugt aehyleo raoodtn nluunte...

    Critical Miss: Gears of War

    The "we lose our co-op partner" argument becomes less valid when you have four man co-op. You all should try it. I hear it's all the rage. - J

    Batman Voice Actor Says Arkham City Will Have Downloadable Episodes

    So, am I to infer from this that your answer to their question, which I remind you had only these two options: 1) Additional content to be released in small bites as inexpensive DLC -or- 2) No additional content to be released You would pick option 1? Is that correct? - J

    Batman Voice Actor Says Arkham City Will Have Downloadable Episodes

    Without poking too much fun at your butthurt, I have a quick question to see if there's any way whatsoever I could relate to where you are coming from. Let's say that a game is released. And it's good. Really good. You love it. And the developers call you up personally and say, "We had a...

    Escape to the Movies: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part II

    The biggest thing to stand out at me about these films was that someone somewhere in this production dropped the ball as relates to how the Power Trio interacts. Rupert Grint and Emma Watson have absolutely *zero* chemistry, which wouldn't be so bad if she didn't have such powerful chemistry...

    Steve Jobs Steals GDC Thunder with iPad 2 Announcement

    Well, let's call a spade a spade here. This came out now to split the market and hopefully lower Xoom adoption. Everyone knows the "real" upgraded iPad will come out nearer the holiday season. This is barely improved because it's a rushed .5 release, and it probably never would've hit the...

    Steve Jobs Steals GDC Thunder with iPad 2 Announcement

    To those wondering "why" the iPad, I figured I'd speak up, since they're all the rage at my company. The fact is that the iPad (or now, the Xoom, which also doesn't natively play avi, what the hell?) is much easier to carry from meeting to meeting than the equivalent laptop and or briefcase...

    Kissing: why is it still a social taboo?

    If you and yours enjoy it, by all means. For the rest of us, when someone refers to "their beloved" or calls them "my love", it makes us roll our eyes and think you've read too many sappy novels. Without putting too fine a point on it, you sound like something written by Meyer. - J

    Kissing: why is it still a social taboo?

    Here's the thing to realize. Most people aren't that pretty. I'd rather not see you and your fat girlfriend sucking face, any more than you'd want to see an old guy like me getting busy. Kissing is fine, but there's a point where it goes too far. If you're at the "get a room" point, you've...
