It's almost like games target themselves at their audience. Like, why isn't there a show on MTV about an old lady who likes knitting and talking to her grandchildren? Or a Lifetime movie about a young kid who secretly has magical powers and her pet dog transforms into a Unicorn?

This game reminds me of a modern version of Night Trap. I wish it had FMV. When will they develop that technology for the iPad.

I honestly hope Paris Hilton has a cameo.

Cosmo is the new king of AV Club!

XBMC fucking sucks. Too buggy, needs too much configuration, which makes it all pointless as the only reason to use it instead of a computer interface is supposed ease-of-use. It seems like it *could* be a good product with just a little polish, only its felt that way since I first saw it 8 years ago or so.

This review made me want to become a fanboy. It went on and on making convoluted metaphors about how ridiculous the OS of the XBox is, when to me it's a complete side-point. The disc is in the machine, you turn it on, you press "a". You don't really have to deal with the OS 99.7% of the time. It's a machine for

Gone Home is totally linear, there's barely any game to it. You just click everything you see and it reads off a Young Adult novel at you. Really it's a young adult book half-crammed into a different medium. It's different than everything else that's out there, and I understand that video game players get tired of

That history is bullshit. At least that the Josephine Baker - France connection is overstated (she was never popular in the US, and so it seems unlikely blacks in the US would drink a French drink to celebrate her success in France).

Just buy whatever's cheapest, it's all good.

I vote for a digitized Tura Satana.

I googled up some pictures of Gal Gadot. If you think she can beat the shit out of you, it's time to mail $10 and a self-addressed stamped envelope to the Charles Atlas program.

There wasn't enough material to justify the length. The subplot about the reporter felt like such a time killer.

I kind've liked Origins: Wolverine, because the bootleg came out before it was truly finished, and they have boxy placeholders for CGI that would be inserted later. Kind of interesting.

B…but I like the last season of The Office. Way better than the previous two, anyhow.

And, she has a background in bodybuilding, which I didn't expect.

Joe Kennedy (JFK's father) was born into wealth and went to an elite boarding school and then Harvard. He made an over-the-table fortune in Wall Street and real estate, and was the first chairman of the SEC.

Yeah but Cantonese movies still dominate non-mainland Chinese. Anyway Chinese movies are niche. 9 of the top 10 movies in (say) France are going to be Hollywood & English language, I'd be surprised if there's one Chinese movie in the top 100. If he wants to be a worldwide star for his current output, neither

Now that it's been more than 20 years and people aren't singing like circa 1993 Robert Plant I don't know if I can agree.

We should talk about how Trent Reznor is a 5'7" manlet. I had no idea until I saw him next to her.

College students are prone to rape, I don't think it's anything special to college athletes.
