  1. https://steamcommunity.com/games/SteamWorkshop/announcements/detail/208632365253244218 Valve is backpedaling on paid mods...for now.
  2. There is no writer or director on planet Earth who can make the "Damaged" forehead tattoo anything but cringeworthy Facebook-tier bullshit. I could see myself getting over the rest of the tattoos if I absolutely had to, but that one I will hate until the end of time. I'll always hate the grille too, but I hated those long before this new Joker ever showed up.
  3. You're a tougher man than I am if you can actually hold off on Phantom Pain. I'm buying it day one even if it turns out Konami's execs took Kojima down to some kind of sex dungeon against his will. That said, this is more than likely the last Konami game I'll buy, which shouldn't be that difficult because what the fuck else do they even have anymore? Castlevania? Please.
  4. Sometimes it's even worse than that. Gravity Falls is a particularly egregious offender . As much as I love that show, they have perhaps the worst schedule I have ever seen. This is a show that's heavily story driven and has an overarching plot, so it's that much more jarring to have it broken up so much. Season two, for example, started in August of 2014 and went on until November. After that, it went off the air until mid-February, when they showed one new episode. After that it disappeared again until March, when it came back for one more new episode that dropped a MAJOR story related bombshell, and now it's gone again until this summer. It's fucking torture.
  5. I'm starting to get really frustrated with all these television shows that put out a handful of episodes from a new season, then wait for several months or even up to a full year to put out more. Breaking Bad did it, Gravity Falls did it, Walking Dead did it (which contributed heavily to me dropping the show entirely), and now it's looking like Star vs. The Forces of Evil is going to do it just when I was really starting to get into it. I don't know who is responsible for this practice or what they hope to accomplish from it, but the more it happens the more it pisses me off. I'd rather wait longer for a finished season than be left hanging for months on end after I'm already invested. Just finish the fucking show, you pricks!
  6. I'm finally getting into Xenoblade on the 3DS. I had the Wii version but I never finished it. I seem to have trouble finishing RPGs that aren't on handhelds nowadays, but it's just as well because I think this game works better on the 3DS. The Wii version looked ugly as hell on an HD television, which wasn't really the game's fault but that doesn't change the fact that it looks better on a smaller screen. On another note, why are there so few JRPGs that have this kind of battle system? MMO style combat is just so much more fun in a single player game like this one, but the only other example I can think of is FFXII. It's downright criminal that this sort of gameplay hasn't caught on more.
  7. Danny Baranowsky might be the best game composer in the business today.
  8. I was waiting for the full release on this one, and now it's out, so here we are.
  9. I just can't see the Joker sitting still long enough to get either those tattoos or that grille.
  10. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CDZbuEiUUAAtGQb.jpg So, uh, this is the new Joker. Yikes...
  11. Uninstalling all my updates for Google seems to have fixed it for now. Also it's now offering me a list of sentence predictions to choose from when I use speech to text. Did it always do that?
  12. Considering how the new F4 is shaping up, that sounds more like a nightmare.
  13. So we're all against this policy, right? Nobody actually thinks it's a good idea, right?
  14. Guys I found the undercover FBI agent.
  15. Never underestimate E3's capacity to underwhelm. I'd love to be wrong about this, but past E3s have taught me to be skeptical.
  16. I'm betting you won't get any of those. I'd bet money that they're announcing Doom 4.
  17. How did this game get so popular? Everyone on here seems to hate it, and so do all my friends.
  18. So I guess that means it's not the OS. I feel like it has to be something with the app then. I just don't know what.
  19. I'm on 4.4.2, whichever candy that one is.
  20. Is anyone else having major problems with the Google app on android phones? For some reason Google works fine if I use it in mobile chrome, but if I try to use the search widget on my home page all it does is say that the search results can't be returned.
  21. While it's possible, I don't think it's likely. Comcast and Co. are probably going to fight the march of progress for years and slow it down to a crawl with all the legal red tape. If not for them, we'd already be in a much better position than we are right now.
  22. The only way we'll get an all digital future is if we drastically revolutionize broadband internet in the US. Data caps and download speeds as they currently stand just don't make an exclusively digital market practical for either consumers or vendors, regardless of our technology's actual potential.
  23. A friend of mine bought Mortal Kombat X for the PS4 and we spent yesterday going through the story mode, so I guess in that sense we "beat" it. It's hard to talk about without giving stuff away so I'll put my opinion in spoilers. Oh, it also bears mentioning that this game probably has the goriest fatalities in the history of the entire franchise. I thought it couldn't get any bloodier after Noob Saibot in MK9, but they outdid themselves with this one. I love it.
