You only had one guest and you don’t want to credit them as more than “the guest?” Brutal... or mysterious...

So they made Ogre Battle combat on a grid? Cool.

Slow news days, huh? 

I’m assuming there is some degree of fraud that goes into leading players into believing that microtransactions will benefit them and their gameplay experience, only to exclude players from the content that the transactions were supposed to make better.

Personally, if there’s any regulation in gaming, it should be…

I try not to be a jealous person but man... a 10th of what this person spent on a single free to play game would be life changing for me.

Zero dollars. That’s where I’m at these days. 

The Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDI-P) is a strange blend of nationalistic socialism and Islamic authoritarian policy. It’s not the most simple answer, other than to say that Indonesia is becoming increasingly authoritarian under President Jokowi.

Yet this site name is Kotaku. If there is a sense of irony about “appropriation” being ignored here... *shrugged*

Ah.. the uprising begins. “It’s still my turn, Christopher...”

Had he the interest to do so, which he actually did NOT -- not out of malice for them, but for the reality of what Owen wanted to do in his own life outside the ring.

Baby Bruce will be texting uncle daddy Vince every 5 seconds

Do you even have to ask? it’s as legit as Rick Flairs retirement match(es).
