Next: id Software's Kickstarter for the next Quake game with only one goal: for just $1,000,000 John Carmack will be part of the development team. YAY!

Not going to give them the hit traffic for that review and I recommend others ignore it as well.

They have to deny it, or the shareholders would have a fucking stroke.

From the Techday article:

causing a ripple of annoyance from various journalists on Twitter, including Spike TV’s Geoff Keighley

That's Geoff Keighley, of Doritos and Mountain Dew fame, annoyed that game reviewers might be selling out? Cry me a fucking river you epic douche.

What mods do you guys feel are important to enjoyment of the game? The only mod that I have kept enabled has been for inventory management....

If you haven't picked up XCOM: Enemy Unknown it is a great game. Not without some bugs, but overall a solid release.

I ran into one bug in my 44 hours of playing. At one point I couldn't navigate around my base any longer. I exited the game, came back in, and it worked fine.

Great, great game. I have a few nits with the design (tech tree could have been deeper, no base invasions), but had a ton of fun with it.

This is an easy one. Put a Cubs uniform on the asteroid and you render it incapable of hitting anything.

Okay, wait... So the Supreme Court ruled on something, and now the Feds are taking it to an appeals court?? What? Since when can you take a SCOTUS ruling to an appeals court?

Creston

The SC case was a bit open-ended. They said that the government might need a warrant. They did not say the government always needed a warrant.

The government is now testing when "might" comes into play.

It wasn't a very clear or, uh, decisive decision. They didn't say "you can't do this," they said "you can't do this in this case, and you might not be able to do it in other cases."

making them well-positioned to compete for and win the jobs of today's global economy.

Most people are safe though, because there is a queue to run the remote execution. By the time the hacker gets a chance at your account, you are probably logged out of Origin.

Not a big deal, EA will fix it up.

Ok folks, time to give SimCity a break as Aliens CM has a 3.5 gig patch.

Their announcement said it was 4! I truly wonder what it changes/fixes...
