The bit about perks being tied to SPECIAL stats warrants some thought. In FO3, your SPECIAL stats went from 0-10 and were essentially fixed from the start of the game. There were a few things that could raise them a little, but they were mostly fixed. If perks are tied to that, and if they’re being literal about perks…

increasing diversity seems like a harmless and potentially good thing. But there’s more than one way to do that. They could have created new characters that fit the diversity targets they’re trying to achieve. But rather than do that, they’ve taken something away and replaced it with something few (if any, or so it…

hehe, Blizzard did such a good job using Warhammer sources for Warcraft they did it again with Starcraft. I’ve heard the Warcraft thing was initially out of necessity, as they had been building Warcraft for a GW game, but then GW pulled the plug, and Blizzard had to make something with all the work they’d done or they…

Man, I just can’t WAIT to strut around like this in a new and improved wasteland...

Okay, but will she sport the cute initial (PC) face or the uglier next-gen face?

Yes, no explosions or robots, but lots of moe and yuri.

Hilarious! Basically, ‘We’re cheap, are embarassed about our cheapness, and are trying to hide it, with the consequence of leaving out one of the most interesting and popular characters and will instead focus on two of the most boring.’

Nah, you don’t. One of the first things I saw about this game was where someone had strung all the cutscenes together and posted the consolidated movie to YouTube. No game play, just the story. It was great.

Dragon’s Crown, the loli edition?

Happened again!? I must be missing very interesting posts you’re making...

Why were you grey?

Yeah, an odd situation. Editorial group said ‘Don’t run that story’. Individual editor greenlights it anyway. Story is awful, readers react, suits pull the article, editorial group protests the suits deciding what to pull.

It still looks like something the History Channel made in the 90s.

This was one of the best shows of the season (for me at least). It always felt like each episode ended too soon, which is a great sign of it having totally immersed me while I was watching.

So, we have no current data on the effectiveness of these missiles against comparable planes flown by real pilots?

First, how many missiles can this thing carry internally? In the paragraph about the “Infrared Search and Track” linked article insert, it says the F-35 can carry “six beyond-visual-range air-to-air missiles”. But later, when talking about the future ability to carry Sidewinders, it sounds like it can only carry 4…

Dude, that guy Sully is Galahad or whatever from The Order: 1886!.

This is what Kojima will do on his last day at Konami. First, he’ll use those boxes to clean out his office. Then he’ll do this to get out of the building.

Man, someone needs help with infographics. When you want to make a visual representation of survey responses on a scale (very bad, bad, neutral, good, very good) you should coordinate the colors to represent good and bad as well as intensity. So like, in this case, if we assume more = better, then “A Whole Lot” should…

Thank god for mods! Want time limits on questions? No problem. Want to kill kids? Sick, but there’s a mod for that. Want to replace all the food, and introduce thirst and sleep deprivation and more realistic radiation poisoning and weather (including storms that can damage your health) and no auto saves and super…
