  1. I mentioned it in another thread, but right now I'm really into this comic called Irredeemable. The premise is basically what would happen when a superhero with Superman level power (and I'm talking silver age power) and no obvious weaknesses is simply not emotionally equipped for the job of being the world's hero. He's can't handle the constant cries for help his super-hearing picks up all the time, no matter where he is. He can't handle being criticized by people who are ungrateful to him for his rescues. Most of all, he can't handle being betrayed by the people he's been protecting all this time. When it all becomes too much, he snaps and decides humanity isn't worth saving anymore. In fact, he decides that he was wrong to be saving such a worthless species all this time, and turns into the most heinous global mass murderer in history. The general story of the comic is split along two threads. One involves a team of lesser heroes (and even a few villains who know that the earth being destroyed would be bad) trying to figure out The Plutonian's origins, powers, and especially weaknesses so he can be defeated. The other is from the point of view of The Plutonian himself, and delves into just what kind of events could turn a Superman into a Darkseid. It's a fascinating comic, and I highly, highly recommend it.
  2. This Mass Effect 2 trailer made me feel things I didn't understand. Freaking epic, y'all.
  3. I also would have posted that Doritos ad but Chew beat me to it.
  4. I think they're okay in small doses, but a lot of games drag it on way past its welcome.
  5. This thread is for the Genesis, you guys. Get that SNES talk back in the console wars thread!
  6. Kill off the characters who suck. So Jacob, Jack, uh...Miranda or Samara, but not both! ' Keep the rest. They're p cool guys and I think you'd miss having them around an evil Shep in ME3.
  7. I want to see the homeworld of the Elcor or the Hanar.
  8. Unlike today, multiplatform games back then could be VERY different.
  9. I probably would have liked the movie more if I didn't spoil the soundtrack by buying the CD.
  10. Isaac talking wasn't really unknown.
  11. Yes. Yes it is. But not mature.
  12. Isn't this the game where you collect trading cards of people you bang?
  13. I bought Kingdom Come recently and was not disappointed.
  14. That battery sucking piece of shit? Noooo...
  15. So 4PM probably REALLY means 10PM. Or "whenever everyone's hangover finally wears off."
  16. aw shit, the demo's out? And I have to work.
  17. I would buy Witcher, but I know I'm never gonna actually play it. TOO MANY GAMES, Y'ALL.
  18. Yeah, you guys just flaunt your nog that I can't even drink. Bastards.
  19. It might be cheating to say a Klan movie still provokes strong emotions. If it didn't, I would be worried.
