Yeah, it seemed to me like the only reason that game exists is so they can say "Resistance is on the Vita", not because they actually wanted to make a good game for the Vita.
-
Have you played the demo for Burning Skies? I've read that it's not very good and the demo did nothing to dispossess me of that notion.
-
Yeah, that does seem like a pretty good analogy. Maybe it will end up like marijuana then: the authorities trying to crack down on it with no hope of stopping it, but never changing their ways.
-
Not SOL, you just have to buy a power cable separately. That way they can lie and say it's only $199 instead of $220 or whatever.

http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2012/06/22/blizzard-declares-diablo-starter-edition-snafu-unintended/ So now Blizzard is saying the Starter Edition limitation is unintended, and was a consequence of these other, lesser restrictions. I think they did it on purpose and after the backlash they started backpedaling, kind of like EA with that iOS Rock Band thing a while ago. These restrictions don't seem too bad, except the inability to share loot.

From http://www.joystiq.com/2012/06/22/new-3ds-coming-to-us-august-19-for-199-99/ This is completely fucking ridiculous.

I have a G5 for gaming, but my regular keyboard is some shitty ViewSonic thing I got 7 years ago for $11. Still works perfectly, so I'd say it was a good investment. *Edit* - Come to think of it, it's the only part still remaining from the first PC I built from scratch.
-
Nah, I imagine they'll look back on it like we look on the Wild West: somewhat romantically, but ultimately glad that Law was established.

You can play WoL offline, you just can't unlock achievements. It does require a one-time activation the first time you play, but it's not a constant thing, or even an every-time-you-play thing.

I'm looking forward to AC3: Liberation. That game is actually what sold me on getting a Vita (and then my impatience sold me on getting it now instead of in October).
-
Or they might have been wrong. Beyond is the only pending game on her IMDb page.
-
She's not in The Last of Us.
-
Maybe it's got something kinda like Gary's Mod.
-
I really need to clean off my desk. *Edit* - lest you should think that thing on the right monitor is a giant penis, it's the Mythbusters making a tower of soap by bubbling methane up through soapy water.
-
I do worry what it might do to food prices.
-
I got it, haven't had a chance to play it yet.

I think the only reason a lot of PC games aren't suited for consoles is the lack of kb/m support. There's no reason not to play console games on a PC though, unless it's a REALLY shitty port, since as soon as you've got the game booted and a pad in your hand it doesn't matter what box it's running on.

Oh man, I used to watch Lupin the Third on Adult Swim back in high school/college.

See I actually prefer having digital copies. They're often nearly perfect, and I'm anal about not damaging books to the point where I feel like I can barely touch them. For reading comics digitally I quite like my Nook Tablet. The screen is a little small if that's your primary purpose, a 10-inch screen would be nicer (like an iPad, as much as I hate Apple). 10 inches feels too big to me for most regular books though if comics aren't your primary consideration, and I really like the 7 inch Nook Tablet screen for that.

Well and I'd totally understand waiting a while on HotS to make sure it doesn't have any hidden issues before diving in.
-
Support rep says What a load of crap.
-
I don't see why console games shouldn't be on PC. We have game pads.
-
By "my game" do you mean Diablo 3? If so I don't see the logic in refusing to get game X that doesn't do anything wrong because of game Y which does a lot of things wrong, even if they're published by the same company. And by "this bullshit" I meant anything to do with requiring a constant connection, I won't get HotS if it has that.

http://www.cnn.com/2012/06/21/politics/senate-farm-bill/index.html So the Senate passed a bill that overhauls farm supports. I only know what's in that article, but in principle replacing direct subsidies with crop insurance seems like a good way to go, and $24 billion in savings is nothing to sneeze at. I wish it had elaborated more on the changes to food stamps though.
-
I really hope Heart of the Swarm doesn't have to deal with this bullshit.
