You have a point there, I'll admit it. But in my defense, I've been sick and in bed all day, which has made me bored and ornery.

@avclub-aa22fb36340151934b048dea777dec7f:disqus I take it you could still understand what I was saying, yes?
Emilio's comment, by contrast, is nonsensical. He first tells me my logic is flawed, citing splinter cell as an example of game that can be played "wrong." But then he says splinter cell "forces" you to play in…

@avclub-2bd086692a63899c03bb946d58c44d25:disqus The "argument' being that if a game is beta tested (as virtually all releases are), it must be free of an flaws, so any complaints anyone has must be the result of being stupid? Reasonable indeed!

PROTIP: My opinion of your commentary is considerably diminished if you are unable to string together a coherent sentence.

And this is where I ask myself why I bothered having a discussion with fanboys who registered just to complain about a review on a website they had probably never even heard of before this review popped up on metacritic.

*sigh* Obviously, you can think of extreme examples. But the problem is these examples are strategies that no rational player would follow. This is because well-designed games, like most Mario games (and Gears, to a lesser extent), tend to have intuitive gameplay. If I have to grope around for the "right" way to play…

Is there anything more tiresome than the "you're not playing it right" response to a negative game review? If you have to force yourself to play a game in a particular manner in order to enjoy the game, it's probably not a very well-designed game.

You're off your case, chief.

To Morrissey, eating chicken tikka is an atrocity that ranks somewhere between the Holocaust and Darfur.

This is as good a time as any to ask everyone to sign my "Bring Back Kröd Mändoon" petition.

I've only seen one episode. It seems decent enough. Nothing fantastic, but I recall one funny scene where the marginally-more-responsible guy wet his hair down in an effort to look more professional. That gave me a chuckle. I'm a little confused by the animosity.

In all seriousness, while we can all probably agree that this production still looks pretty silly, it's not shaking my confidence in the movie. You've got a guy dressed up in a bat costume and another guy dressed in some kind of freaky mask fake-fighting in the street. Removed from the actual context of the film,…

who Mom loves best?

Although they're all photographed above the waist, I can only assume that everyone is wearing hockey pants as well.

But the inexplicable fog and smoke in the scene where they show the 1984 Apple commercial with the inexplicable fog and smoke will be so inexplicably foggy and smoky, it will look like it was filmed inside a cloud.

Why not just re-release Pirates of Silicon Valley and throw in a black-and-white photo of Noah Wyle at the end with a subtitle that reads "R.I.P"?

Has that plan ever worked for anyone ever in the history of the universe?

Sir, you do not disappoint.

You forgot Dental Plan. That references is always acceptable.

Because the only thing more awesome than having an incredibly lame friend is the frustration of having an incredibly lame friend with an inexplicably hot wife?
