@stryker1138: I could never manage to keep running without the music.

@dxgirly: Tattoo. Bigger return in investment.

@shkm: "My point is that there are some great people to be found on any game (maybe except LoL/DotA games...), they can just be rather hard to get to."

@Trai_Dep: Don't blame the Catholics, they've generally been more comfortable with mystery and faith (and so leaving the specifics to science). Blame the robber barons: the shift begins to occur when people start using Darwin to be shitty to one another, and religion interprets this as science impinging on morality.

@Bloodpudding: Almost never right away. The only instance that springs to mind is ME, when I wanted to have something unlocked for the time when I took a "proper" new game plus.

@Wess28: [en.wikipedia.org]

@m_faustus: Did you miss Woops!

"What went wrong with Jericho? The same thing that seems to go wrong with other post-apocalypse stories"

@Duuuuuuude: There's no question it's a cool game. I think that it needs a bit more polish. I don't think the gameplay is lacking. It's one of those games that's superficially simple but has some interesting deep complexities that aren't obvious from the get go. It's also clearly a very niche game, with a much greater…

@Jukebox: I got pretty far working for the Sassinids, somewhat stuck on how to take on a castle with just my forces.

Been playing Mount & Blade: Warband of late, which someone gave me for Christmas. Outside of it being entirely too easy to spend far too much time on, it's one of those games that make me worried I'm losing my gamer-fu. That attack command feels wholly unnatural to me, and I can't seem to get to the next stage of…

@bloodyhammer: I can't speak to the tech. However, I'd state the details a little differently (at least per the last I've heard of the news) : Iran's nuclear facilities (that Iran claims have no military application) have come under cyberattack, and, in part because it is a cyberattack, the culprit is hard to finger.…

@gryphy: No. By definition. But mind you, this is narrower than it might seem.

@MajorGroove: There are two parts to that.

Outside of the transparent blame-shifting, the man has a point.

#14 takes it.

The phrase "worst LARP ever" springs to mind.

These days, it's about hitting that geek nerve before hitting the mainstream.

@a-rural-juror: The two series share a director and many similarities on a conceptual level. Possibly even too much so - I've heard people argue that Champloo is just a knockoff of Bebop OR that Bebop is just the rough draft for Champloo. (There's a spectacular crazy fan theory that Champloo is actually a tabletop RPG…

@Mikey: The influence of anime and manga in McGruder's style is strong, and frequently discussed by him and others. It's probably more evident in the strip rather than the show, but the action sequences of the show, of which there are many, often could stand in for ones in anime.
