  1. Sure. Also iPad Mini is going to be revealed a week from today. Get excited!
  2. http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/election-2012/wp/2012/10/15/charity-president-unhappy-about-paul-ryan-soup-kitchen-photo-op/ Paul Ryan bursts into a homeless shelter with his crew, without permission, to get a photo op washing dishes that are already clean, long after everyone was served. The church relies on their apolitical stance to get donations, and this move has a very good chance of reducing donations. I can't think of a better metaphor for the Republican platform than the vice presidential candidate feigning generosity while screwing less fortunate people out of nourishment.
  3. Instead of something silly like a cape glitch, they should just make the pirated copy wipe your hard drive partition 10 minutes in. "SURPRISE!"
  4. I prefer to think that it's based off Plan 9 From Outer Space.
  5. Also, drones http://booktwo.org/notebook/drone-shadows/
  6. All due respect, Maritan, but when I hear someone blame Call of Duty's players for something they don't like about a new game, I tend to tune that person's argument out. It's an elitist, snobbish attitude and I hate that the gaming community has been divided that way lately. It feels like shifting the blame to some sort of unidentifiable mass for causing games to be made that you don't like. EDIT: I realize it isn't nice to tune someone's argument out, I just hate what the term usually alludes to and it makes me more focused on being annoyed by the generalization than the actual argument or opinion.
  7. I captured a floater, so it can be done.
  8. http://hopisen.com/2012/on-the-use-of-weapons-and-being-pro-abortion/ Abortion is a worldwide thing, but since it's currently a talking point for the 2012 election I figured it would be smart to share this.
  9. http://www.vice.com/en_uk/read/greeks-fascist-homophobes-have-gay-jesus-on-their-side For all the Christians condemning Islam as a "violent religion" and "Oh we would never do that!"
  10. I'm on PC, but I've been playing with a 360 controller. Finished first playthrough, currently aiming for a "no-kill" playthrough.
  11. Yes. You can't woo them back.
  12. Green Man Gaming is a godsend. Got XCOM for $45, which gave me a $10 credit, then used it with a 25% unlimited voucher to get Dishonored for $34.

      I'm thinking I'll use it to either pick up Gods and Kings or Dishonored if it goes on sale. Not too worried about using this 25% voucher, I'm sure there'll be another one next week.

      If a steam game has preorder bonuses but you buy it through Green Man, do you get a steam code that still qualifies for the bonuses?

      That varies from game to game. XCOM pre-orders got a key for Civ V as well as the soldier customization stuff, but not the TF2 hats (pretty sure that's always going to be Steam-exlusive).

       

      As for my pre-order of Hitman, I didn't get the Sniper Challenge mini-game.

  13. http://badlyrecreate...mes.tumblr.com/ I am the king of insane Tumblr blogs.
  14. XCOM is so good but I think I might suck at it.
  15. Why don't we use October 8th to celebrate someone that isn't a petulant asshole? We should replace Columbus Day with... hmm... it's Flat's birthday, so today shall now be known as Flat Day!

      How about Native American Genocide Victims Day?

      In South Dakota, the state has changed the name from Columbus Day to Native American Day.

      Flat Day? I shall corrupt it into Flat Chest Day.

  16. Practice matches with Johnny. Lost most of them, but one of the victories I achieved was rather interesting...
  17. http://youtu.be/0I5mxw5ci2w Get ready for another movie where Bruce Willis will probably spout his catchphrase!

      I think my favorite is his comment on how hard it would be to land a shuttle on an airplane

  18. Yeah, Jeff Daniels did an excellent job. Sells his character very well, and creates an entertaining antagonist.
