Clearly, Anita Sarkeesian is putting your PS4's to sleep. She will awaken them when women achieve true equality.

I totally agree that people are taking gaming, especially as some sort of lifestyle choice, way too seriously. But you're out of line saying the community are all basement dwelling trolls. There's certainly a subset of that, but as a hobby I don't think it's much different from a sewing circle, an RPG group, or a…

Well said. Inclusive games should, in theory, reach a broader market. If a game is friendly and accessible to all interest groups, it should sell to all of those interest groups. It shouldn't be incumbent on the developers to be inclusive unless they are trying to reach that market.

Stupid question - Is this any different from SmartTV function? ie, if I've already got connectivity to Netflix and Amazon Prime subscriptions through built-in wifi connectivity, is there any reason I might want this?

I hope you used STFU on him in person. It is the antithesis of the "intellectual" internet debate style.

Your theory about control doesn't really match up. The fact that you can process fear in real life implies that you have the natural response mechanisms. In a movie, yes, you're in for a ride and have no control, but a video game gives you control. Maybe not complete control - you're limited in what you're able to…

Dude should've opened up a premium cab service. Who wouldn't pay good money to ride up to the club in a brand new Porsche?

The wording is a one-way street. Government can't do anything about or to religion. The rest of the constitution and bill of rights provide enough power to the government that the law prevents or at least abrogates potentially harmful effects of religion, but it doesn't say anything about religion's ability to…

WTF? She's a porn actress. She makes her living having sex with people. He presumably knew that going into a relationship with her, and then he beat her for it?

I don't play, but I've got to know - can people actually force feed you bananas in the game?

Spiderman and Daredevil, I think, are the only ones from the movies. The X-men all go under codenames, but they're all pretty much "out" as powered in the movies. Avengers are as well. None of them wear a mask.

Yeah, but they were the bad ones. "Brotherhood of Evil Mutants" concept, but without Magneto's tactical acumen and charisma.

I see this as a really risky move. I generally agree that the MCU is not deep enough to support the full Civil War storyline. But that might be a good thing. The Marvel event covered, what, a dozen or more graphic novels worth of content? You certainly don't want to dig that deep in a cinematic feature, because it…

You taught me a new word. It's not a word I wanted or needed to know, but it's new, so that's something!

In fairness, he started it all off easier. He only had one rule to maintain paradise, but some chick broke it.

I sincerely hope that the new generation of consoles and PC hardware, combined with the use of cloud computing, will enable individual AI routines that will allow NPCs to react to their missing cutlery.

An actual clown college might provide a more stable career.

Doesn't the company do periodic backups? I'd think if the company knows they're going to be laying people off, they could bring the administrator in the night before to collect all the relevant assets and store them on a separate drive. I'd imagine it's more a matter of IP protection. That's the main reason not to…

That sounds a lot like "Fireball Island".

Are you sure you didn't dream that? That sounds like something you experience while fighting a 105 degree fever.
