Unless they think they can charge $800 or so?
Creston Yeah, but they're getting a bulk discount! |

Verno wrote on May 9, 2013, 09:51: Prince of Darkness was awesome even with the 80s uber cheese. The Thing is top 5 film material shit, I was really disappointed with the 2011 prequel. Introducing a female into the equation ruined all of the alpha male inter-personal conflict and paranoid tension. The actress did a great job, it just wasn't a smart fit for the film. Luckily (for Carpenter) he had nothing to do with the prequel.
The man has made some amazing films. But he hasn't made anything decent in decades. I honestly wonder if he's still got it. |

MP is what made RtCW so great. I liked the SP a lot, but MP was awesome. Not having anything like that is just so lame. If Skyrim is your benchmark for paying full price, you won't ever buy a game at launch. There hasn't been a game as big as Skyrim since Skyrim. |

I feel terrible for all the working stiffs who just lost there jobs, the vast majority of whom have no part in the EA policies we love to hate. They're just people, many of whom doing what they love, and now they have no jobs in a tough job market. |

eRe4s3r wrote on May 8, 2013, 18:11: I hope these things become mandatory to wear. You have no idea how quickly that would improve behavior of people in public (mostly the ones wearing it, but equally the ones not). Yes yes, privacy bla bla. The presence of cameras hasn't really improved most other areas of society so I see no logical reason why this would. Putting a random face on the web without any accompanying identifiable information isn't an effective deterrent to people intent on destroying these things, go take a random photo to your local police station and see what they say they can do with it. Many in society will be sympathetic to the destroyer, not the 'victim' as people do not like being filmed without their consent. If you shove a camera in someones face at a bar you're likely going to be assaulted and don't count on witness statements or much help from the police unless you're seriously injured.
These devices will not be popular with women and are unlikely to gain much traction so it's much ado about nothing anyway. Actually, crime across the board is at an all time low historically. Obviously the reasons are complex and varied, but the proliferation of recording devices is certainly a contributing factor.
It's a new age we're entering, and it will be interesting to see how societies deal with ever-diminishing privacy. |

Don't dismiss just b/c it's a "browser game." There are actual games that are played in the browser, like Bastion. |

I can understand anything up to a buck for this or that, but you could spend 100s, if not 1000s, on what should amount to a 60 dollar SP game, or a sub of $5 per month for everything. I don't see what you're complaining about. That horse will last you FIVE WHOLE HOURS! |

Air Force sidelines 17 ICBM officers.
So, these officers failed to launch weapons that could result in the extinction of humanity? And they viewed this as a bad thing?

Important Info for Cooking Dried Beans in a Crock Pot or Slow Cooker Wow, I had no idea about that toxin. It's interesting, my mother taught me to cook beans: 1) wash 2) soak overnight 3) discard the water and add new 4) Bring to a boil for 5-10m 5) simmer for an hour on the stove. That would take care of the toxin, per the article. I just had no idea that methodology had an actual purpose. |

Well, the entire FPS genre is pretty much a copy of every FPS game that came before it. But yes, Greenheart Games copied the formula way too closely. It sounds like they did almost nothing innovative at all. But worse than that is that they did it poorly. From the review:
Good: Some plagiarised elements still maintain shreds of fun Bad: Art is uninspired, regurgitated Zynga fare Trite, watered down and diluted gameplay Lame shoutouts to game development celebrities Game Dev Tycoon is bad and the developers should feel bad |
