Actually, the shit she's getting done is "stuffing her bank account" with sweet youtube dollars and appearance fees. She's playing both sides for suckers and laughing all the way to the bank. Ms Sarkeesian is not in the "making games better for women" business; she's in the "making green for Anita" business. And I…

That report, while excellent at highlighting the problem, neither refutes my post, nor bolsters yours.

I know exactly what you're saying. I see it a lot in my upper-upper-middle-class 'hood. Some men (certainly not I) make so damn much money, it would be seem almost pointless to work (especially when you have little kids). Seriously, it's insane how much money these guys make. Is it finance or something? they…

that rep should be retired - what a dinosaur.

I agree it's a big deal - I live it every day. I would say that being a code monkey is not sweet career it once was, because it's altogether too easy to off/onshore. But IT and infrastructure are still huge and complex, and require local teams to maintain, design, architect, and operate.

This is actually very, very wrong. I work in a humongous IT company, and they are dying to hire more women into IT, hardware, and software engineering roles.

She gives off a Jolie-like vibe, like, above it all, when she hasn't yet nailed a performance, though given a crazy amount of chances in well-written movies.

That is her. However, her qualifications, inheritance, and gender identity are not the issue. What's overlooked is that she is a major league shit-talker, and quite possibly a bit of a delusional nutter herself.

ISIS (or whatever they actually call themselves)

Was he like "daaaaamn girl"?

Right - his problem is that he's probably nervous and not relaxed, so is falling back on boring chit chat. He doesn't need cheesy lines or magic tricks, just more practice socializing, and dating, to get over his nerves and be more relaxed.

I hope you're not suggesting that you'd make a better advice columnist. The answer to every letter would be "Get over yourself"

Being "interesting" isn't what's attractive. It's conversational skill. Some deadbeat losers get women because they're fun to be around, at least at first. This guy's coming off as a drip, and no matter how many interesting hobbies he collects, he'll continue to come off as a drip until he gets better at…

The problem is twofold:

I don't do online MP (prefer solo or couch), so I'd be a-ok with MCC as it is. But I can imagine the annoyance.

Agreed - heck, I think I put more hours into my free "Paper Mario" Virtual Console game than Dragon Age Inquisition.

I agree that it has a handful of outrageously good games. But it simply doesn't cut it as the only console in the house. If you care about games, and are older than 11, you absolutely need a second console if you have a WiiU.

I say this as a PS4 owner: XB1 has the better exclusives so far, by a fair margin. I got the PS4 strictly on hardware, and the promise of the best console version of 3d party games. I don't regret it so far, but I wouldn't have minded having a go at Forza Horizon 2 or Halo MCC.

There's something about the Nintendo method that results in games of incredible polish and consistency. I think some of that is due to reining in ambition. Not having too many game mechanics or tricks. Do a few things, and do them excellently.
