That galaxy trooper costume is amazing — makes me think of a sexy, French Cyberman maid. I will be upgraded indeed.

Sort of a topic switch, but why are there no more boxing games? I had a great time creating characters for boxing games. Made one that looked just me and he went on to become World Champ. I think it was Fight Night that had the most robust one.

Nashton — Reference to John Nash/A Beautiful Mind, or am I just making connections that don’t exist?

I was walking down the street today, and was a few paces from a cop who was coming through the opposite direction. I felt a sneeze coming on and was going to reach for a tissue in my pocket until I stopped myself...what if he thought I was reaching for a gun? What if I’d be shot dead? So, I held the sneeze in as best… Read more

This is me — Recently got a PS4 after about a ten year gap in gaming (don’t ask). First games I got were Red Dead Redemption 2 and Spider-Man. Then, I decided to catch up on some of the big titles/franchises I missed over the years like Uncharted, The Witcher 3, and Assassin’s Creed (last gen ones only so far). I’m…

Sigh. The Dreamcast cross-over we never got.

I’m just thankful HBO put that wayward Confederacy series to rest. Sounds like while Watchmen may be controversial, it’s trying to be a legitimate conversation-starter -- whereas Confederacy just appeared to be white on black violence snuff film. 

This has been a long-brewing strategy for China. For years, they’ve been increasing their investments in American entertainment — all in the name of creativity; global community, etc. Now, their true investment is paying off because the entertainment industry is scared to condemn them. Makes me think of that awkward Ir…

Yes. Especially with the super serious Klingons from Discovery. And the entire episode should be in subtitles.

Hey, Lana. Foorrbiidden Zone!!

I’m getting a bit of an Alien:Resurrection vibe. Arrogant scientists working with the galaxy’s most dangerous creatures; a familiar face who’s fought them before and knows how dangerous they are; a young, woman companion who becomes important to the grizzled veteran; and a ragtag, misfit crew. I’m not complaining.

Yes, I plan to :-)

It appears they’ve done it — nostalgia finally done right! I’m tired of seeing my heroes turn into selfish shells of their former selves. From Kirk’s complacency in the Nexus, to Han’s abandonment of Leia, and especially Luke’s blue-milk fueled island self-imprisonment — the torchbearers of sci-fi legacies seem to…

RDR2. A realistic world that takes you to a lot of pleasant places to fish. Plus, you can set up a camp, and barbecue up some steak with a bottle of whiskey.

I think the best Vader figure around is Tamashii Nation’s samurai-inspired one (which is part of an equally great line of samurai action figures that also include Marvel characters. It takes an extra level of talent to redo a classic design like Vader.

I’m guessing it will open up in the end — in that you can take different characters back to earlier levels to reach previously inaccessible areas — like a wall only the Hulk can break, a ledge only Black Widow can leap to, etc. Read more

Me HATE this idea!

While I agree with you from a gamer perspective  I think DLC is positive for developers. Witcher 3 was a huge undertaking and it makes sense to get as much out of that game’s engine as possible — especially when the results are as impressive as B&W.  

I agree. I’m enjoying the Spiderman PS4 DLC that I just downloaded — short as it is. However, I think the best DLC in recent memory is the Blood & Wine add-on for Witcher 3. It features a large, new map with a design so different from the rest of the game, it almost feels like a sequel.
