I bet he’s sitting down (in non-virtual reality, that is).

These seems like the perfect place to tout my love of PF Flyers, which look great and are far, far more comfortable than Chucks. They seem to last longer, too.

Oh, and they make you run faster and jump higher.

I’m with you. I like moments, but otherwise felt it was more novelty than novel. I’m amazed so many people love it like they do. Wish I could join them.

I do think Spielberg can make a cool movie out of RPO, though.

Some great-looking stuff this year. Hi fives to all you SDCC cosplayers out there.

Looky, looky ... I see a Godzilla vs. Spacegodzilla poster on the wall back there. This pleases me.

Only sort of on topic, but does Uplay crash anyone else’s PC? I can’t play any Ubisoft games, because every time I try to launch Uplay, my PC crashes, and I have to hard reset. It started happening suddenly ... as in, one week Uplay was fine, and the next, nope. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling, uninstalling…

Agreed. I’m a reporter (albeit for a small community paper), and can attest to how easy it is to lose track of stories that go into hibernation for a while. You just get to working on other things until a reader accuses you of covering something up or sweeping a story under the rug. Then you start working on it again.

Amazing.

I’m suffering tons of those. Clothing, buildings, streets ... tons of stuff is missing textures.

I’m in the group who matches the recommended settings, but is still having problems. And it’s not just framerate stutter, which is all over the place: Sometimes I’ll load up the game, and it won’t stutter at all (and by “stutter,” I mean “drop into single digit numbers for seconds at a time before jumping back up…

“Do you hear that?”

“Sounds big.”

That’s funny. The phone is dead.

You are correct based on Luke's previous references to his father (shows the helmet) and himself (shows the mechanical hand). Logic dictates that when he says "my sister," the person on screen is Leia.

I was pleasantly astounded, too. I read that part twice just to ensure it was real.

I was just about to comment with the same thing. Ditto "dude floats under water to show his isolation."

Is it just me, or are there a lot of “Angry” reviewers out there. Why can’t there be some “Happy” reviewers? Or “Generally Optimistic” reviewers. Or, “Happy to Be Doing Something I Love” reviewers? Why’s everybody so pissed off all the time?

The first time I watched that scene, I was awestruck at how terrifying and amazing it looked. I never imagined Gamera could be so badass.

You know, I don't think I had a problem with people using literally "incorrectly" before they started doing it so darn much. I think that's more of my personal pet peeve than the fact that if that teenage girl's head had literally exploded like she just claimed it did, I wouldn't have just endured her using the word…

Wait. Didn't we just do this?

I didn't think the novel was bad, and I found it a quick and easy read. But I didn't connect with it like I think a lot of people did. I was born in '81, so I'm definitely the right kind of person to get all of the references and nods and "remember this'es" the novel batted around. But everything felt a little flat to…
