That's what I get for not checking my links...

This is extremely similar to another paper published in Nature Biotech last week. There are some experimental design differences, but for the most part, these are two very similar papers. Makes me wonder if someone got scooped...

I second Adam Withers' recommendation of Criminal. Or for that matter, pretty much anything by Brubaker. Both Sleeper and Incognito are technically about super-powered individuals but are both fantastic. One is about an agent working undercover in a massive criminal organization, and the other revolves around a…

If you prefer to play on the higher difficulties (Classic or Impossible), I've found the game to be noticeably harder than EU was. The Normal difficulty setting ends up being slightly easier due to all of the new content in EW, which means the jump from normal to classic is even more brutal.

Hopefully they'll do the same thing they did with EU and make it available for Steamplay in a few months. I'm guessing the Mac developers have some arrangement to keep it an App Store exclusive for some amount of time before Steam can offer it.

I'm convinced @BestFansStLouis is run by one of Deadspin's editors trying to make Cards fans look bad. But man, those retweets are priceless.

There's a Sony store at U Village near UW campus. I'm surprised one isn't showing up there. Maybe they just haven't uploaded all the locations to the website yet?

Heck yeah, you dig the music. That's because Baths composed the song for the trailer. Here's to hoping he writes the music for the rest of the game too.

Not to mention a classic Aphex Twin track and what is probably my favorite song on Thundercat's new album.

Def can't go wrong.

Re: C: Of all the lists here, "Non-stop Pop FM" seems to me to be the least plausible. So it's certainly possible Robyn's on a different station. I think it's awesome they've got some Aphex Twin in the mix, it just fits with the rest of those tracks even less than Robyn does.

Looks like you will have to settle for a movie ;-)

They found a palette somewhere with a bunch of copies and decided, since we're not allowed to sell them over the MSRP set by Nintendo, we'll sell if for the used market value.

Yes the wireless receiver requires an install, but you can just as easily download the drivers directly from Microsoft instead of using the CD. Though I think the added convenience of nearly all cross-platform PC releases already having their controls optimally mapped without any customization balances that…

Fair enough. The number of maps was only really a problem for me on my first playthrough when I played a bunch of extra side missions instead of finishing the last story mission. I'm actually more worried about my iPad 2 not being able to properly handle the game than I am about the number of maps.

Yeah, that was probably my biggest complaint about the game. The numbers I've seen bandied about suggest that the number of maps was reduced from 70 to 30 in order to meet Apple's space requirements.

I was super psyched when I first heard this was getting an iOS release, but unless the map number goes up, I'll…

Yes, you can play against up to 4 AI opponents, each set to one of three different difficulties (apprentice, journeyman, and master). You can also do any combination of AI/human opponents up to 5 players, with the humans using pass and play. There is solo mode and online play. The only thing really missing are the…

This bothers me too. The only explanation I can come up with is that the developers must believe that allowing Steam PC users to get the OSX version for "free" constitutes lost revenue. Especially when they are charging $10 more on the App Store (granted it does come with all of the DLC which would cost $12 on…

I noticed this phenomenon a few times at sunset when I lived in Tucson. Took this photo on my phone about a year ago:

But that system most certainly already exists, albeit in a much smaller form. New game preorders very frequently come with a bonus that is redeemed via code redemption online, and this bonus content is linked exclusively to the account on which it was registered. The same goes for DLC. All a publisher need do is…

Oooh! Ooh! Can I play?
