So instead of Half Life 3 we continually get crap like this instead.
That would be because valve found it fun and interesting to do this trading card badge thing. Looking at TF2 you can get a sense of what other things they find fun and interesting, mostly involving hats.
So what you're saying is that our Steam trading cards will all have their own hats?

82 tracks is kind of crazy. Most people will be lucky to learn a dozen.

The original played much better with a wheel, IMO.

Sims 4: always online, size restricted to your house and yard, can have eggs or sugar, but not both so you have to borrow some from your always online neighbors.

I hated Gates for his business practices, but have done a 180 now that he has put his vast fortune, time, and energy into tackling some of the world's more intractable problems (and convinced Buffett to do the same). I don't see too many other rich people even attempting what he's done (looking at you Kock brothers).

It seems a bit absurd at first, but sure enough, they're using a clear facsimile of the ESRB logo as a cornerstone of their marketing campaign. I've seen some weird advertising strategies in my times, and this is definitely near the top of the list.

In the movie industry, NC 17 is the kiss of death. But in other industries Adult Only can be a successful marketing method. Skin sells.

Certainly legalizing MJ will have some positive effect, but I expect it would be fairly mild. It's no economic panacea.

I think I have crashed the server no less than 5 times.....seems like when I click "post comment" it will hang. Not sure if it is me each time or a silly coincidence....

It's a script issue with Chatbear that they are having trouble tracking down. The better long term fix is just a redo of the underlying template system to get rid of Chatbear but that takes time and money.

Could he switch pretty easily to something like Wordpress? I guess he'd lose all of his legacy comments and stuff.

Star trek ITD thoughts.
It really could'nt match the surprise of the first fresh facelift of the orginal series however enough twists in the plot to suprise.
I was worried about the Cumberbatch casting as he's just so overexposed at the moment & not all of it great but he just makes you believe.
So all in all a more dynamic plot than The Avengers & just great to traverse the decks of the Enterprise in 3d.

Hmmm, not exactly a glowing review, Hoop.


Couldn't be worse than Iron Man 3.

Dynamix? Now that's old school.

I'd wish for them to make a proper Tribes sequel to the first one but that soup has been pissed in so much that you can't even recognize that it's soup anymore.

What do you think is missing from Tribes: Ascend?

Yeah the final release is supposed to be 1080p. I'm more concerned about what percentage of players are going to have insurmountable issue with motion sickness.

1080p per eye or split with half for each eye(960x540 per eye is what I mean)?

It's split, but it's only split horizontally so it's 960x1080. 960x540 is actually a quarter, since you've split the screen both horizontally and vertically.

HOLY SHIT.

Same director and cinematography as Children of Men - and that was absolutely fantastic in that respect. Overall, actually.

Pumped!

Yeah, Children of Men is one of my favorite movies. Pretty amazing flick. Alfonso was also director on the best of the Harry Potter movies: Prisoner of Azkaban.
