It's hard to twirl a beard, or a ski mask. I've tried.

Can't they just write scripts in disappearing ink like Roger Rabbit or make them self-destruct like Inspector Gadget?

Sounds like you were genetically predisposed to swingin'.

In Soviet Russia, Twitter tweets YOU! #CCCP

In about '91 I think, my local record shop was phasing out vinyl and had a bunch of albums on clearance for about $1 apiece. A lot of SST stuff—Leaving Trains, Minutemen, Screaming Trees—some Butthole Surfers, Pigface—I was just getting into "underground" music so I bought up everything that looked even remotely weird.

For a moment I was like, "Why the heck are Russian soldiers listening to Kim Wilde?" Then I remembered the game was set in 1984.

I read Polygon (mainly because it's inexplicably the only gaming site NOT blocked by my work), but I tend to disagree with their reviews. Mad Max is great if you like open-world games and are a fan of the film series.

More like Far Cry with less shooty-shooty, more drivy-drivy. The gameplay loop is similar—capture a base, disable a convoy, etc. to reduce the "threat level" in an area to weaken the enemy and unlock upgrades to your car, with the ultimate goal of assualting Gastown. I like it a lot so far, but I'm a huge fan of the…

On the subject of that butt crack… I wonder who it belongs to. Between the convenient bandages over the face, his voice sounding just like Keifer's too, and at one point the comment about "you're talking to yourself," I smell some Kojima shenanigans.

Short answer: The Hulk costs a shitload of cash to CG-animate, so we'll only be seeing him in the "big" Marvel movies from now on.

Funny thing is, I traded in a stack of games to get credit for Until Dawn, MGSV, etc., and one of the games I traded in was The Witcher 3, which I think I got about halfway through before getting frustrated and bored with it. I really, really tried to like it. But the moments of joy were far outweighed by the tedium.

Apparently it's going to be on sale for $39.99 next week at Best Buy, if that's enough of a price drop. Around $32 if you've got Gamer's Club.

OK, I mean, not like I wasn't going to anyway, hunkered down in a basement devoid of sunlight, no well wishes, cards or gifts coming from the friends that I don't have. *cries*

No boobs, but you can get one of the girls to varying states of undress dependent on how you choose to sweet talk her. I guess i'm not smooth, she still had her parka on.

Mine's on the 18th, so you're saying I should play on my birthday?

"Now, go bring the legend back to life!"

For those that have played, what have your body counts been?

If you've got a playstation camera hooked up, it'll snap photos of your reactions when the jump scares happen. doesn't really work that well unless you're playing in a brightened room though, and who wants to play a scary game in anything but the dark?

Yeah, I thought Mike was a absolute dick on my first playthrough, but turns out I was just playing him that way. He can be a real hero if you let him.

I absolutely loved Far Cry 4… one of the few games I've tried to 100%. I can see Mad Max being a similar obsession.
