    Why I Hated Resident Evil 4

    I have a similar experience with this game. Though my background differs. I quickly came to the conclusion that the controls are clunky, the camera is obnoxious and the QTE's worse than anything I've encountered outside of Jericho. When the escort mission came about and there wasn't a compelling...

    Escape to the Movies: Kick Ass 2

    Absolutely agreed, that book was boring, not shocking and completely unfunny, a long shot from the first volume. I'll quote a better book and leave it at: "Mark Millar licks goats". I don't think it's about superheroes in the real world at all. It makes a nod to it and then goes along its...

    EXP: ScrewAttack's Worst EVER: Sexy Chick

    I would've loved to have seen Guilty Gear's Bridget here. You just know those underage lovers are drooling all over that ass in Japan. Same goes for the catgirl in BlazBlue. She's got no face but her skirt flies up so far you can see her boobs... Dizzy's got a penis drawn on her chest...

    The Big Picture: Secrets of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    And Jennifer Walters? Not going to happen soon, I know, but I like her angle way better than Bruce's. Daredevil will probably be its own thing, but it would be a pleasant surprise to see him turn up. I've been betting on Cage and Iron Fist showing up in this show since it was revealed...

    No Right Answer: Best Comic Book Universe Ever

    Marvel has the more cohesive overall universe. They've never fully rebooted it and you know the basic backstory of most characters. DC has a lot of vagueries that they've tried to clear up with their latest reboot (what is it five times now already? Crisis, Infinite Crisis, Crisis on Infinite...

    No One Lives Forever Rights Vanish Into The Night

    I'd say scare up Fox Entertainment. Their logo is plastered all over the boxes of the games (I checked, got them right here) and both games start with the Fox Interactive logo and tune prior to the intro cinematic. My guess: The engine the game was made in and the code is owned by Monolith...

    The Big Picture: Marvel Mess

    And what have I learned from this episode? Doctor Strange is back to being Sorcerer Supreme! Now get the guy his own book again. Please... Or are you going to try to get me to finally cave and buy Avengers books. Well ok, but just the one where he gets the mantle back.

    Feed Dump: French Fry Attack!

    MacDonald's french fries taste half life might be 5 seconds, their actual half life in nature is something different entirely. Some guys tested MacDonald's products against homemade stuff. To wit: don't want to watch? Here's the short of it: The homemade fries and burgers were all rotted...

    No Right Answer: Best Non-Medical Doctor Ever

    Doc Emmet Brown. Let's build a plutonium powered time machine out of a steel car! It broke down? Let's make it a train instead! Which he builds with 19th century tools! The man is bloody brilliant. Though Indiana Jones has his good moments too.

    The Big Picture: The New Green

    Personally I'd say the whole 2 earths so they can have a different version of established characters to mess around with is a pretty good idea. It's just that DC can't help but do it in the most convoluted way possible. Apparently Aquaman is pretty cool in the New 52. Also Wonder Woman is a...

    No Right Answer: Best Time Machine Ever

    The Tardis wins because, as it can travel through space, it can travel to time periods where the Earth does not exist. Making it a better time machine for, you know, travelling through time. Plus you can live in the thing. No sweat, it provides. Though perhaps I'd rate the Heart of Gold...

    Best Superhero Team Ever

    And thus torrent searches for cheerleader teens in heat skyrocket.

    No Right Answer: Best Superhero Team Ever

    First off: The Authority wins because they've got a drug-addled Dutchman who basically controls the planet. And a sun god, the best assassin that'll ever be, a girl who can create anything from nothing, a living bolt of lightning, a guy who can let a city get up out of the ground and step on you...

    The Big Picture: Mutants and Masses

    Bob, I really love that last line: "If this is the biggest problem at this moment in your life you're actually doing really well." And then we get 18 pages of commenters debating over a footnote comparison. I just, I don't know anymore... In other news: "GRR Martin is not your *****." -...

    No Right Answer: Worst Videogame to Movie Adaptation Ever

    King, meet Kula, Kula, King... Yup, that would be my pick as well. You got a million insanely detailed storylines to mix and match with, a million awesome costumes (really, simplify a few of those things and they're basically streetwear) and you ignore them all to make something with a Mortal...
