And this is why two sets of shoulder buttons will not be 100% accepted. It just does not work for certain genres.

Holy crap where is that? Awesome.

Jesus christ that man's voice is annoying.

Eric - I admire your willingness to wade through the comment murk. At the end of the day if an HBO Go subscription was available digital-only I'd be on board. I'm unwilling to pay for HD cable + an HBO subscription for maybe 4 hours a week of seasonal content (GoT, Veep, curbed reruns and I guess the new silicon…

The NY Times does fantastic writing about things you can't just scrape off of google news. 8$ doesn't seem unreasonable provided the content is accessible on mobile AND standard browsers. Might be asking too much to have it push to my kindle though.

I wish prime streaming had a windows 8 app. I use the netflix windows 8 app on my HTPC all the time entirely due to convenience... HBO go and Prime both get underused because they're more of a hassle to passively watch in teh background while doing other stuff.

Looks like swappable bands maybe? A brushed metal watch with easily swappable nato straps would be a fantastic look.. would definitely propel this to something fashionable vs. a nerdy fitbit looking thing my coworkers wear.

I usually just mail things to myself via gmail. It isn't the most elegant, but if I search, say, "Tax Return 2013" it's right there.

That is such a weird niche thing to do. A midrange dual boot android / wp8 device (with a solid camera) would be awesome for me, as I am an iphone user that would love to try new OSes.. but what sort of real audience do these things have aside from enthusiasts?

This so much. Prime video streaming is OK, I guess, but realistically I just want my fast free shipping.

I beat him in beer pong at an ugly sweater christmas party in college. Highlight of my life.

I don't think I'd ever live in the 'DMV' unless it was DC proper. I've done a year in clarendon and it was awful. There's just nothing compelling about the suburbs of that city, unlike say Chicago or someplace like that.

So excited for this. Thank you for the honest review in light of the tech bugs. Especially appreciate the note about how casual fans will like the game - that convinced me to download it on steam now.

That IS a fun fact. Voice acting seems like such a neat career.

... he was in the process of selling a company of 50 employees for billions of dollars.

Ah. Touche sir, sorry.

I can't imagine the neiman marcus retail people have anything to do with the server side payment info.

Round trip? Jesus. How early are we talking? I just looked at the route 3 months in advance and it's still hovering around 100 each way.

Absolutely ridiculous how much the trains cost from DC to NYC. I hate the bus so much but the idea of paying 200$ for a 4 hour trip is absurd, when the bus is only like 40-50$.

I would LOVE to do this. I took a 26 hour train trip from DC to Florida last christmas and it was absolutely amazing.
