I'm holding out for the Jesus Christ mousepad with gynomastic wrist-rest.

This is really going to make Jesus angry...

And also this...

I hope those games are still playable after spending six months in a leaky boat...

I actually like the 3DS' looks. What I cannot stand is the placement of the stylus. I thought we went through this already, Nintendo! It goes on the side. On. The. Side.

Agreed. I think he's trying to get a feeling for the demand for the movie, as well as how strongly the fans feel about an R rating. A call for wisdom and clarity doesn't feel compatible with a call to flood the studio with emails demanding upfront cash for Vin.

I am a fan of Portal, and my kids enjoy it, too. But I'm not a fan of some of the moments where you're falling rapidly through space, having to reorient yourself and manage to shoot a portal. I can appreciate the fun of figuring out what you need to do, but moments like that make me queasy. There are also times when…

This really sounds like what would have resulted if Michel Foucault had turned his gaze to bedwetting.

Well, my understanding is that they originally intended to make the game in b/w, which complicates things a bit. But I've been playing in color, for the most part.

Black-and-white vs. color film stock was a choice, not a necessity, in the early 40's through the late 50's, when the bulk of films of the genre were made. The Wizard of Oz and Gone with the Wind both came out in 1939, but the use of Technicolor dates to the 1920's. Leave Her to Heaven, a 1945 noir, was shot in…

Like many other types of individuals, transgendered people play video games, become journalists, and do many other things. Ms. Petit wasn't discussing gender identity, she was discussing L.A. Noire.

Clearly, Ms. Petit is not 'bombarding' anyone with anything just by existing. And, really... honest dialogue about race/gender/sexual identity can't start if people that are uncomfortable aren't able to say so... which doesn't excuse hate speech or descrimination, but this doesn't fit into those categories. The…

I second this, but want to clarify it's not a creepy stalkery love. It's nerd love. Like what I feel for Wil Wheaton and Stephen Fry.

On the way to my Dad's house, there's a handmade sign at the head of a driveway, "Adult Tap Dance". I realize it's probably an instructor that doesn't want to deal with teaching kids, but my mind turns to other possibilities every time I see it.

I comment from time to time here and on i09... but due to time constraints, I don't generally peek in on TAY because of it's ability to suck me in... but my daughter was sick today (not too sick to spend some time at the ol' RB3 drum stool... I played bass) so I had to stay home from work.

You can get 2 games for your PS3 and also for your PSP.

I'm loving it so far, and kind of curious as to how Team Bondi prefers us to experience their game, in black-and-white or color? Obviously we're free to choose, but I wonder if they feel like having the game released in color was a capitulation to Sauron... didn't they originally envision the game as a black-and-white…

When did hearts come back? I'm guessing they were added back when we lost the ability to page through posts with our arrow keys... Or was it just me that didn't see them/couldn't use them in the comments? I love you ladies and gents, and now I can show it again!

Does Geometry Wars 2: Retro Evolved count? I know it's descended from Asteroids, but after thinking about it for a bit, I think it counts. Most of these games are scrolling, but Space Invaders wasn't, either... and it's like buttah, one of the best arcade-type games of all-time in my opinion. I put a lot of quarters…

For various reasons: Braid, Geometry Wars 2: Retro Evolved, Lost Odyssey and Rock Band's various iterations.
