It's there now! I swear it wasn't there about five minutes ago - another commenter pointed it out too, so I'm not crazy...

This game doesn't have a "Should you play" section, but Madden does. I'm confused. I also had no idea this game was coming out, so I'm more curious to see the little box with the rundown. I know you get a lot of crap from commenters about the "Yes/No" system, but I personally like having the shorthand.

If you buy GTA V, you get GTA Online. I haven't seen this anywhere, but I'm assuming it involves a registration with a new purchase, like Mass Effect 3's multiplayer. The fact that it's being advertised as a separate game included with GTA V makes me think there's registration involved and not just a multiplayer mode.

Interesting - with maps and Siri, doesn't Apple need the users as data? It seems like it would have been very inefficient to bide their time since they likely are able to improve both apps the more they get used.

I got the HD collection recently. I'm playing MGS2 and keep asking myself why.

I'll raise a glass to Hideo Kojima, the Foxhound team and Konami for bringing me so much joy through the Metal Gear Solid franchise. I just bought the HD versions of MGS 2 and 3 on the 360 and am enjoying all the nostalgia that comes with those games. I've had the pleasure of playing the crap out of MGS since 1998 and

I'm sorry, I must have a smudge on my screen. It makes for serious what? I'm sure there must be a glitch that follows your text when I scroll...

Anyone have recommendations for other good travel mugs? Preferably ones with a tight seal that I can throw in a bag and ride a bike with? I recently started commuting by bike and don't trust my old mug to stay shut if it ends up on its side or something in my bag.

"THE ENGINEERS have set into motion a plot called THE BLACKLIST that will destroy a major American city... every few days until America agrees to withdraw its troops from every country in the world and cease worldwide operations."

Almost always. I don't know if it's an audio problem, speaker problem or a lip-reading problem, but I've always had a hard time hearing/understanding everything in video games. Animation is usually fine - so maybe it's just the sound mixing with all the special effects and everything else?

Props to the guard with the exclamation point. Pun definitely intended.

I love when good games aim to do something other than realism. I like the look of Dishonored and Bioshock Infinite for having great visuals but making them obviously unreal. I'd like to see more games embracing unrealistic art styles.

I never realized how awkward that animal looks until just now. What would it look like with its mouth closed? Could it even do that? Does it unhinge its jaw to make that face? I suddenly have so many questions about this logo.

This list just reminds me why I stopped playing multiplayer games with people I don't know.

I've never thought about the possibility of being your own type...

It's always seemed strange when people order sides without them being on the side of anything. I find it equally strange when you can order a combination of sides that end up being cheaper than the "meal" as a whole. I used to go to a coffee shop that would serve a hummus plate for about $8. I then found out you could

Do you know what ingredients and how they're modified? GMOs aren't inherently bad, and Chipotle does a lot better than many restaurants, fast food or no, so I'm surprised you're writing off the whole place for what is likely only a handful of their ingredients.

Black and white, fine. Black and white, and the contrast cranked all the way up, no. Thanks for trying something new, I guess, but I'm not really interested in playing with something where I can't see what's going on.

Easy but much more time consuming. My family used to have homemade pizza once or twice a year because of how long it took to do the whole thing start to finish. I'd happily take real pizza dough, but unless you're making a very small batch of dough, the real thing turns into an all-night process.

New Tomb Raider - Yaaaay!
