You think we could continue the tradition? I do realize that the Puritains didn't last long enough to have more than a handful of their descendants become colonists, and later U.S. citizens, but we've got plenty of spiritual successors of theirs who could really use a swift kick to the hindquarters over the border.

I'm replying for two reasons. First, unfortunately, this computer design is priced $100 cheaper than it should be. Remember, you still need a copy of Windows 7. Second, I don't want to lose this link. I've been thinking about putting a gaming PC in my office at work for a while, and this looks like just the thing.…

Never noticed them talking about the car. All I remember is that the camera seemed to hang out over the logo on the steering wheel or over Ford's hand on the nav system a little too long.

Second season of TNT's Leverage, they started showing off this Hyundai. Don't know the particular model, but the product placement was a little too obvious. None of the characters would say anything about the car, but the camera just seemed to linger too long on the dashboard, the Hyundai logo, or a character,…

I don't think it is just the basic setup. You may be on to something here.

For those without reference to that last shot, the Mac Pro, Apple's big, honking professional desktop tower, was "updated" 17 days ago. Said update was a boost to the low-end stock configuration. No Thunderbolt port, no USB 3.0, just an additional 0.13 GHz. Before that, the last update was 685 days ago. New models…

Really? Then why does mine always open on my Library?

Don't have to wash them often, either. Scratch that. Let me rephrase that: you can't wash them often.

Or Deus Ex: Human Revolution.

If I may continue the car analogy: a Mac is, say, a BMW coupe, while a PC is a top fuel dragster. The dragster has more power and is cheaper than the coupe, but it handles atrociously, requiring a little more thought in its operation. The coupe may not be as fast, or as powerful, but with traction control it…

JFK was pretty well liked. Its no stretch of the imagination that after his assassination a few people would want to see his assassin dead.

We may have a problem.

Can you post a URL instead?

Wait, wait, wait. Are you saying you have seen a chunk of "Wreck-It Ralph" already?

Just one thing. You stated a minute and a half reload time. That is rather long. A practiced soldier could reload and fire a musket up to 3 times a minute, or about 20 seconds per shot. Otherwise, looks like you got it mostly right.

Lead, not iron. Iron shot would have been too expensive and probably would have chewed up the steel barrels of the muskets much faster than lead.

Anybody else having problems with these videos? This one and the Black Ops video both have unsynced audio-visuals for me. Sound appears to come before the corresponding action on the screen.

Great article, but kinda surprised it was not cross-posted on Kotaku, given its subject matter.

Can I just say that despite not being a Sonic fan from my youth (or perhaps because I am not) I really enjoyed Sonic 4: Ep 2? Bought it for iOS not long after it came out, and right off the bat I felt it was better than the first episode (first episode set me back $15, second was much more reasonable at $7). Tight…

I never said it wasn't boring. All I'm saying is there is more to it than pinning the accelerator to the floor and turning left.
