  1. I thought that was common knowledge, even before release.
  2. This is a neat video that talks about how some of the systems of No Man's Sky work without getting too technical about it:
  3. If you don't think there was much story you must have missed a lot of stuff. That's also supported by the fact that it only took you 0.8 hours. My first playthrough took ~2.5.
  4. I've been too busy with Destiny and Batman.
  5. Did anyone know how the Burton Batmobile works with tank mode?
  6. I feel like Afleck could do fine as Bruce Wayne, what I'm concerned about is his Batman.
  7. I mentioned this suggestion to my wife, who has absolutely no interest in BvS, and her response was "I would totally go see that." I think this would have been a winner.
  8. South of the Equator = winter in July, summer in December.
  9. roflmao, did they actually think that was possible in this year of our Lord two thousand and fifteen?
  10. Well I think you kind of have to reboot Batman after TDKR...
  11. And Jack, I don't think the anyone was saying it was out of character for the Joker to do those things, they're criticizing the way the story handled Barbara's involvement.
  12. Aha! So you dispute Jack's interpretation! This can only be settled with a duel.
  13. Okay, I see now. I haven't read the Killing Joke (I was aware of the plot developments, just wasn't aware KJ was where they happened), so I don't know about this one specifically, but I feel like for stuff like that you have to look at the work on its own and see how it's handled, otherwise you end up with a situation where a woman can't ever be a victim, and that's really limiting. If Jack's right, and the point is that even though this terrible thing happens it doesn't break her and cause her to assume the victim mindset, then it sounds like it's handled fine. But again, I haven't read it. Arkham Knight spoilers:
  14. I am not exaggerating when I say that I had to wipe spit off my screen after seeing that.
  15. Yeah, that's another aspect I didn't even bring up: in most (all?) US jurisdictions the statute of limitations only applies to a deadline for filing charges; once charges are filed there are other time requirements (which are also stopped by being on the run), but the SoL doesn't apply anymore. Also, I know I'm not the first to make this observation, but how perfect is it that the abbreviation for Statute of Limitations is SoL?
  16. Yeah, I didn't mean there's no influence, just that criminal law is not judge-made in the US as the article implied.
  17. Slight clarification on the article: while the US does have a common law system overall, criminal law specifically is basically entirely statutory. The thing with Julian Assange and Sweden having to change his charges due to the statute of limitations interests me. In most (all?) US jurisdictions, if you are a fugitive avoiding apprehension then the statute of limitations stops counting, so since he's hiding out in an embassy the time wouldn't count. The same goes for if you are actively concealing the crime (threatening witnesses to stop them reporting it, etc).
  18. I'm saying I didn't read the article, and your comment made it sound like the only reason they were miffed was the fact that they lived in a rural area instead of the city.
  19. It's an injury from Arkham Asylum, when Croc tore him up. Some of the random thugs will comment on it occasionally.
  20. You just said they grew up in the rural life, not that they were dirt poor. Plenty of people are poor in the city too. But yes, if an accident like that caused you to grow up really poor when your birth parents were better-off, I can see being upset by that. Nothing to do with city/country though.
  21. Why is that obvious? I'd hate it if I had to live in the city.
  22. I just want Khepri's Sting. *Edit - And Gjallarhorn.
  23. I'm pretty sure it's shared world, and you can run into other players.
  24. It only works for the games that you could stream to the regular Vita, so not very many. Also, not ALL Vita games work on the PSTV, though most do. http://www.vitaplayer.co.uk/list-of-playstation-tv-compatible-games/
