  1. Sounds good! I think I'll pick it up soon enough...
  2. I feel like if it were priced at $40, I would've immediately picked it up. As it stands, I'm just curious if the story is worth $60, because the block puzzling doesn't look like it's worth that much.
  3. Went to see Cowboys and Aliens. I was completely surprised that it was a good film. The previews made it look dire, but I couldn't pass up on Paul Dano, Harrison Ford, Sam Rockwell and Clancy Brown all in the same movie. What DID look dire, however, was the trailer for "Battleship". Yes, the board game Battleship. Now how do you make that into a movie? Do you have "The Hunt for Red Octobor" or "U-571" by staging crazy naval warfare? Of course not. What you need is FLYING ALIEN SPACE BOATS! And of course, they get Liam Neeson to say his Trailer Quote (side: I love Liam Neeson to death, but even I'm starting to wear thin on Hollywood's penchant for putting him in everything to say stupid, stupid lines), "Fire weapons." "Which ones, sir?" "ALL OF THEM." EDIT: Forgot Sam Rockwell, whom I also adore. Though they didn't have a patented "Sam Rockwell Dance" this time.
  4. Completed Bastion. You guys should definitely pick it up. It is AWESOME.

      I want to but it's not on PSN :(

       

      They haven't ruled it out entirely, though, so fingers crossed.

      It's definitely coming to Steam soon so that's where I'll be picking it up.

  5. All I know is that I've had more fun with my phone than I've had with my DS in years. And why should I pay $40 a pop when I can easily pick up some arcadey experience for 99 cents, and leave the core experiences for the house?
  6. I can't even begin to imagine how out-of-touch individuals are when they claim Nintendo's recent moves are "all part of Nintendo's grand plan to save the day".

      People on Kotaku, Destructoid, Joystiq, Giant Bomb, *insert community name here*. They were always followed by some rational user asking "Are you fucking serious?"

      What do you mean by "save the day"?

      These are brave moves to save Nintendo, that's for sure.

  7. 3DS just dropped to $170. That's nice and all, but I still need games to be interested in before I'll take the plunge.

      pretty much the truth for any console.

      I am tempted for Ghost Recon alone. Made by one of the X-COM guys.

      Professor Layton is the reason I'll be getting one. That and the new Mario game, of course.

  8. How come Erwin doesn't have a star on Kotaku, yet KingKellogg and Raso719 are allowed to spout hypocritical, fanboy bullshit under golden diplomatic impunity?

      What he said. Last I checked, the site had completely went to the wolves, and starred commenters were responsible for some of the most needlessly offensive and aggressive posts in there.

    3. RockyRan

      RockyRan

      Yeah. Sadly, stars aren't a measure of quality comments any longer on that site.

      Yes, they are, damn it! I earned that star fair and square.

  9. Is it extremely cynical for me to think that this will be one horrible holiday for EA?

      Good business move: BF3, SWTOR.

       

      Bad business move: Origin.

       

      It's about even.

      There's just something about SWTOR that makes me doubt its ability to rake in the cash.

  10. Maybe I'm cynical as hell, but I think Battlefield 3 and SWTOR will fail MISERABLY for EA.
  11. I haven't watched Mythbusters in the longest time, but I've always found Adam Savage fascinating.
  12. I recently got my external hard drive in the mail, and I want to back up all my movies/TV shows from iTunes onto it. Any advice?

  13. I try not to show my more leftist side, but seriously, the Republicans in office right now are psychopaths.

      madbassman basically nailed it as far as I'm concerned. Both parties have lost a sense of real purpose other than to oppose the other guys, and the public leans on it as an easy way to decide who to vote for without being informed.

      Shame you guys don't have OMRLP. Shame you have such a large military too or you could Civil War.

      It's really all about the left refusing to cut entitlements and the right warning that without cuts we can't pay the bills. Not really more complicated than that.

  14. FUCK JOHN BOEHNER FUCK HIM IN HIS SLUTTY MOUTH

  15. Bastion. One moment almost brought me to tears, and now I understand what gamers talk about when they mention "their moment", but I can't really talk about it with anyone who hasn't played up to the part I have. It's too good to be spoiled.
  16. Bastion is incredible. Great combat, great story, and some truly touching moments. I'm not even done with it, yet I'd say it's one of the best games I've played this year.

      If they'd released it on PC, I would be playing it. Now I probably won't play it at all. : \

      I'm gonna get it when it goes on Steam, it looks really neat. As for the Fahrenheit comment, hahahaha... Man, I loved that game despite its bullshit at the half way point.

  17. Try tossing some of his personal shit around. See if that puts him in a more "perceptive" mood.
  18. Thankfully I'm no longer living in Texas. The weather there is FUCKED. 130 degrees in my old neighborhood.
  19. My prayers go out to the people of Oslo, Norway. The pictures released so far make me want to crawl up into a ball and die.

      I don't get too pissed off that often, but attacking children really is a disgusting thing. If they torture this jackass to death, I have no qualms about it.

  20. So glad I rented DNF instead of purchasing. I made it as far as the Duke Dome before giving up.

  22. Playing Duke Nukem Forever from a Redbox copy. I'm about to hurl my controller through the fucking window.

  23. Saw it. It was awesome... but the scene after the credits made me feel like I had paid for a long teaser for the Avengers movie.
  24. I am confused by this Origin pre-order thing for Star Wars: The Old Republic. When you pre-order, are you guaranteed a copy when it launches?

      But how much later? "Later" as in, "When the game's about to launch", or sometime in the near future?

    3. TheRevanchist

      First 500,000 orders are guaranteed. Doesn't matter much, anyway. The CE is sold out. :(

      game.co.uk still has copies of the CE. They are however sending out Headstart codes in batches - not instantly like Amazon was.
