America had a choice. Japan doesn’t. You can’t be so dumb as to not see that. I don’t really care all that much either way but even I can see the clear difference between the two and would like to think you do too.

That is a bit unfair. Battleborn is a MOBA Shooter. They are supposed to focus on the different hero units. Just saying the word MOBA should tell everyone how different it was but no one bothered to listen or care or both. The comparisons have been tiring to listen to. They are not even the same type of game and yet…

Because they are 2 different kinds of games. Battleborn is a MOBA Shooter. It is like Monday Night Combat or an FPS Smite. Overwatch is, essentially, a class-based shooter where the variations in class loadouts are actually heroes with unique abilities. Basically, they are not the same sub-genre.

People buy useless shit all the time. And they certainly buy shit that they don’t need. There is no point in looking too hard into it.

Which is fine and, as a Halo fan, I love what they have done in that regard but Halo shipped with a full campaign and at least 5 game modes at the start (and has grown considerably since) for $60. Console gamers are basically getting the $40 version of the game that is available on PC but with 5 skins and items for…

And I am sure you are playing them all right now and simply can’t wait to spend that extra $20 to get some Starcraft 2 portraits or a WoW pet. And all those console gamers on whose systems these games don’t exist are simply ecstatic at being given the privilege of not having a choice in the matter. In fact, I think I…

You don’t say. But some of the ones I am bringing up don’t exactly facilitate bouncing back and forth between them all and don’t traditionally have a large amount of crossover but you knew that already.

You say barebones like the Origins Edition adds anything to the base game other than 5 character skins. Looking at it all, for a console gamer, it comes to $20 more (not that they have a choice) for a pair a wings for a Diablo 3 character and 5 player skins (out of the many many more already in the game). That isn’t…

But you can’t get the $40 version on console. It is Origins or nothing and considering the bulk of the stuff you get with the Origins Edition is useless for a console gamer, you are not exactly assuaging any doubts here.

You can argue $40 but not really the $60 being asked for console. 10 maps isn’t a huge number and there are only 3 game modes. Basically Payload and 2 variations of King of the Hill.

Because it isn’t. A racist act involves forethought, to act on a belief; the belief that one race is superior to another. This would be racial bias but nothing more.

I wouldn’t call it slow but it isn’t really as fast as people like to think, either. Movement speed outside of a few characters feel pretty average (and I am not just talking about the tanks). Once the bullets start flying, people get crowded, shits blowing up everywhere and there are a lot of guns and skills that…

Maybe Thanos will get a little face time in Guardians 2 just to remind people of what he looks like? That comes out before Justice League.

Yeah. Happens every time. I am sure that I have even said it myself, though I forget for which CoD game. Of course, I never actually did buy it and haven’t purchased a CoD game since MW2 (which I never finished).

I am sure it is a fine game but it will probably end up like other Moba-like games Monday Night Combat and Awesomenauts that find a niche and no more. Smite is really the only Moba variant that has found some success.

The question should be why does that expectation have to also be so limiting? Everyone wants their shit to work when they buy it. Whether they know how to breakdown and repair it or not, whether they know how to mod it, whether they think they have a way of making it work better, they all start out with simply wanting…

Well that comes down to taste because I don’t think it is a good looking watch at all. I wear watches all the time and have quite a few of them and I would never buy anything that looks like an Apple Watch without good reason.

the family is trying to paint the police as horrible monsters who murdered their precious angel children

Who cares? Since when do police departments care about shit like that?Their feelings must be hurt quite a lot these days then. That doesn’t excuse the department from talking about the priors of dead minors in order to ‘defend’ themselves. There is absolutely no need to do so.

But that is for the media is jump on. For the family to talk about (or not). It isn’t the place for the cops to start talking about the prior records of dead minors in order to ‘defend’ themselves over people talking shit about them.
