I hope not. The changes they made to the first Kick-Ass were to its benefit. The ending to the book itself was dreadful, and this is one of the few times were the adaptation was better than the source material. Although, I hope that the sequel is still as fun as the first one with Matthew Vaughn gone.

I could listen to Gibson talk about damn near anything for hours on end and still be enthralled. Pattern Recognition is also my favorite Gibson novel. I loved that book.

I can see the argument as being similar to why artists, graphic and web designers get miffed when someone does something like this. You have professionals who do this for a living, but by asking them to do it for free it's almost like an invalidation of the career. Why would you hire professionals when you could get…

Oh, yeah. Dude, those people have been around since the dawn of pop-culture. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hipster_(contemporary_subculture)

Hipsters as a way to describe groups has been around for decades.

Starman, the epitome of hipster superhero, and he was amazing. True hero, that guy.

I was the same way with Community. The two episodes I'd tuned into were the high-brow episodes ala the Trampoline episode and the one with Pierce in the hospital. It didn't appeal to me. Until I marathoned it from the very beginning, and then everything made sense. The "gimmick" episodes don't always work until you…

That's a very, very good point. Porn is so damn gross after you don't need it anymore.

Oh-ho-ho. I cannot wait to take on these enemies. The work-together/tactical aspect for the enemies is something I'm definitely looking forward to. Good job, 343 Industries. I really like these promotional videos. The developers seem to have put so much thought into this game.

The io9 crew is the most personable crew on Gawker. I love this show!

Fascinating photos! Unfortunately, I found it hard to tear myself away from that first one. Great article, though.

I have a 360. I'm thinking I'm probably going to keep using it for the media integration and the cross-platform releases, but the exclusives for the PS3 + the blu-ray player seem to be worth the price. Especially because I think I'll have cash to burn. The 360 exclusives save Halo and whatnot haven't exactly wowed me…

Oh yeah, Journey is def. on my list of most-wanted games.

One for each, then. I'm mostly concerned with the exclusives that the PS3 offers + the Blu-Ray player thing. Naughty Dog's games are a big reason I'm considering it, of course, but there seem to be plenty of games worth shelling out the money for. Thanks for the suggestion. I'll look into that. Any must-have games I…

I am ecstatic we get to play Phoenix again. I like Apollo Justice and all, but Phoenix Wright is simply the best. I'm right on with you in hoping Maya comes back. I love her.

I'm considering buying a PS3 come my next paycheck just so I can play Naughty Dog's titles. Is this a smart move? I ask because this game looks so, so, so good. If so, what's the best bundle/deal I can get? Please help.

Here is a list of some of the terrible things Glenn Beck has said on his show. Some of those are terrible regardless of your political bent, and if you cannot see that then you are as blind as the hate you're decrying: http://mediamatters.org/research/2011/04/06/the-50-worst-things-glenn-beck-said-on-fox-news/178421

Nah, man. I don't need to meet Glenn Beck to know I'd utterly despise him. It has nothing to do with being "pretentious," he is an insincere cult-leader whose rhetoric is repulsive, hurtful to its listeners and filled with hate. I know this because I've listened to his real words that he really says - all of which are…

That's a shame. I really enjoyed playing CoH. It was my first MMO, and I loved the character customization. DCUO might have taken me away for a while (and even that I've abandoned) but CoH/CoV has a special place in my heart.

I'm in the same boat. I want to play all these PC games coming out, but my '08 MBP's GPU can't handle most of them. Sometimes I'll get lucky, but I would really need to upgrade. It's a shame you can't upgrade laptops, really. I can't afford a new gaming rig until maybe graduation five months from now. Sigh.
