Woof, well that was still awful.

Put all your personal nonsense aside. Company makes a game. It sold very well. Execs profit. That’s how business works.

Oh buzz off, loser. Twitch has been about live-streaming from the chat, and has been about appealing to audiences for what they’re looking like from the start. It began as a live-streaming IRL site, they added video games, and it has moved back and forth being about videogames and about chatting about art and music,…

I’m gonna go with Occam’s Razor and say the answer is “She’s 56"

I really, truly love the Gunsmoke/Incredible Hulk/Xena storytelling of this show, and would love if it remained very monster-of-the-week with occasional glances at a wider story. Considering Star Wars’ roots in Flash Gordon serials, a show that simply asks “what adventure will our heroes get into this week?” is very…

The thing I always wonder about is how much our understanding of these sexual identities even matters that much in such pre-Kinsey days. Would someone like Will even think of himself in those terms?
Reading any specific sexual identity onto Will, beyond having a some sense of his queerness, seems like projection on our…

You are absolutely exaggerating:

More trans Michael: literally taking down a photo of the old you and talking about how much it hurts to look at it, and being afraid of the people you knew “before” still seeing you the same old way.

“I don’t know how I could’ve kept writing him into Veronica Mars as the husband or as the boyfriend.”

Oh man I tried the Star Wars one in Vegas and absolutely loved it. The real world geometry really did it for me. It seemed like a great standalone experience that was already more than a Proof of Concept/potentially great demo down the line. Also, I second on more VR coverage on kotaku.

Interesting! I’ve done the Void VR games before (the Star Wars branded one currently running in Downtown Disney), but that one eschews controllers for hand-tracking, and instead of tethering the headsets to the ceiling they come with backpacks containing the PCs. A bit cumbersome but the setup works really well! I…

I guess I’m one of the mythical “undecided voters,” in that I am undecided as to whether I will vote at all. There are surely more undecided voters like me than of the other type, those civic-minded numbskulls who populate televised town halls and Frank Luntz focus groups because they are positive they will vote, but…

Made this last night in preparation

It’s very good.

Syd about to kill him is a reason for a self defense measure. That is why that is not the point that David crosses a line that can’t be uncrossed. But Syd has told him she is no longer in love with him. It ISN’T just self defense, it then becomes self serving. If what Farouk has done is bad with mental manipulation,…

And no new Splinter Cell :(

Here’s my wildest prediction: Alan Wake 2 announced for PC, PS4, Switch and Xbox One.

Okay, my prediction is more of a wish than anything else. I believe I read somewhere that Remedy is creating a whole new IP.

That’s fair. And it definitely has no POC in any major roles (I can’t remember if there are any bit parts, but the main ensemble, yeah, all white). Not great. Gondry does better with Be Kind Rewind and the WONDERFUL and super-slept-on The We and the I. And yeah, Eternal Sunshine is the one that gets all the attention.
