As just one difference — as Kat Blaque points out — two white European parents cannot give birth to an African child. (Even though the idea of separate, clearly defined races is a social construct,  it’s certainly based on certain physical traits held in common by different geographical groupings.) But any two…

Others have broken it down better than I could, but I just want to add (by way of Ijeoma Oluo) that one distinction between the two is that transgender is a two-way street while transrace is not. Meaning, a man can just about as easily become a woman and pass as a woman, as a woman can become a man and pass as a man.…

To be honest I’d say part of the main fault even in skirmish mode for me was having a “fantasy/hollywood hapless russian out-teched and outmaneuvered by germans” version of the russian army rather than the RL latewar version that crushed Germany by literally *walking* into Berlin.

The out-tech and outmaneuvered…

Pick and choose I guess. Your accessment of it seems a bit one sided to say the least Gita.

You’re forgetting that the Oscar isn’t a Film award, but an Academy award.

Minecraft PS Vita handhelds are coming to Japan. They’re part of a special bundle that comes with a Minecraft PS Vita pouch and an array of downloadable content. It will be out on December 6 in Japan. No word on an international release.

That’s where it starts, just like how the first few PS4 games were also available on the PS3, just less pretty. Then devs will start disabling features when run on the original PS4 (like the PS3 Dragon Age 3, Shadows of Mordor...).

Hoo-boy.

Right now, it has my favorite Mario Kart, Smash Bros, Rayman, and Pikmin in their respective franchises. It has a good 2D, Mario, a great 2.5D Mario, a good Donkey Kong Country game, a great Bayonetta sequel, and the definitive version of a great Zelda game. They’ve seemingly achieved their goal of making the Mario…

Here are some more comparisons, showing better texture in city, some motion blur and lighting

There’s a lot of weird, misdirected anguish going on in the responses here. A lot of people are making the correlation that Monolith Soft IS Nintendo, and that Nintendo is directly affecting how ‘pretty’ their game is. Unless Iwata himself comes out and says that he colluded with this downgrade, assuming so is…

I can’t find my original post but he flat out admits he did this for views on a slow news day and knew this was going to happen:

I like Joe and all but I really feel like hes not being completely honest about this situation. Oh don’t get me wrong Nintendo is certainly screwing over youtubers on this one and they really shouldn’t be but at the same time Joe already knew what Nintendo does to youtube lets plays, hes had videos that have done the…

The people of Charlie Hebdo definitely didn't deserve what happened, but this isn't an issue of free speech, its an issue of actions have consequences. Far too often people will talk out of line, say something or do something that reflects poorly on them, and then they try to use "free speech" as a Get Out of Trouble…

I love this picture...

All you people without a Wii U are really missing out. It has the best library of all the new gen consoles by far.

All around I think it's pretty brilliant. I know some people are going to be pissed at the exclusivity and maybe rightly so. But we never really get something like this midway through a cycle (I guess you could count the N64 expansion pack?). Faster, second stick built in, better screens and all potentially free of…

You know how if you watch an episode of Star Trek or whatever and there's a redshirt in a dangerous situation? They die and you aren't surprised at all and maybe even roll your eyes and say "ugh saw that coming a mile away". It would be nice for women to not be redshirts, so that countless stories don't start with…
