Ok everybody, what was your poorest DVD purchase decision? I remember paying $109.99 for the first season of The X-Files the day it was released. A whole season of a TV show was unheard of, and for 10 discs $110 seemed right at the time. By the time I got around to getting the final two seasons I believe they were…

RE: Why I couldn't watch the Original Mad Max films on Netflix in advance of Fury Road.

Mentally scanning the page your brain assumes C is for CD at 10.99 and T is for Tape at 16.99. Makes you think your getting a better deal than you are.

People used to try this scam and then double it by retuning the unopened "free" CDs to Best Buy without a receipt. Not realizing of course that they had different UPCs than the retail versions. I can't count how many times I had to call someone out, "No this CD didn't come from here. It says BMG Direct on the back!"

It's a shame "We're the Same" doesn't immediately follow 'Sick of Myself." It's one of the greatest one-two punches in pop history.

I turned 20 in '95 and at that point it was easily my most anticipated record ever up until then. Bullet With Butterfly Wings had blown my friends and I away in concert a year and a half earlier. The song on Mellon Collie (ugh) bears bears no resemblance to it whatsoever. Apparently Mr. William Corgan, Jr. liked the…

Records from 1995 still on my iPod/Phone/whatever

There's a good chunk of dialog in the second episode of the Sopranos dedicated to the virtues of DVDs over LaserDisc. Much of the arc around Carmella and Father Phil revolves around classic movies being newly released on DVD.

The day the Fallout 4 trailer came out I watched it several times. The next day I started watching the latest Two Best Friends Play Bloodborne and the Fallout 4 trailer was the ad that played before the video.

Seriously, is it in his contract rider that it must be in the script?

I think this column could be redone just based on Christmas stuff. Anyone else's household have a soft spot for Jon Anderson's Three Ships on cassette?

When Axiom Verge came out I put about an hour into it, but was too focused on Bloodborne to play any more. This week I picked it back up and played it to the end. I enjoyed it very much. I had to consult the internet twice on where to go next after spending too much time lost. Unfortunately both times I had already…

This make me delirious.

Viz just published a collection of the A Link to the Past comics from Nintendo Power. Maybe if it does well enough they'll continue with other properties.

I'm not sure if it was stellar design, or amazing coincidence, or possibly rigged, but I was floored when the first actual Metroid you encounter in Prime hit me at exactly 50% of all scans.

It is crazy to think about how having to move to the left of the starting screen was a mind-blowing concept at the time. But it was.

I’m so glad Vicarious Visions is developing this one. In my opinion Trap Team was disappointing (and ugly) compared to Swap Force.

Found it.
