Unleashed DEFINITELY embraced the weird. I mean, Force wrestling a freaking Star Destroyer into crashing from PLANETARY ORBIT. It’s one of the only games beyond KOTOR where I ever really felt the “Oh yeah. This is why you go Dark.”

I can give you my ex’s number. 

The format really doesn’t matter as long as they plan it out properly.

Stop trying to make the Boba Fett/Obi-Wan thing happen. Please. It’s time for new blood.* Yes they were discussed but I’m good. Solo was the best point to this.
The best version of Obi-Wan happened on Rebels already.

I don’t particularly blame him, but I’m absolutely disappointed that such an enthralling work of fiction will never be finished.

People know that they’re going to get something worthwhile—maybe even genius—when they watch HBO

Politics these days is about who can troll the hardest. This is a pretty good one.

But don’t worry, gang! io9 says Solo flopping really isn’t that big of a deal!

Look at the so-called “Hearing Protection Act.” Sounds good on the surface, right? Who wouldn’t want legislation ensuring people’s hearing is protected?
