Law Student here, with a decent hand at copyright: Bobsplosion raises the crux point of the issue - they were attempting to sell excess fabric that was deliberately meant to be similar to a previously copyrighted design, ie, copy a protected design, and sell it for the deliberate reason that it looks like the…

There's actually a ton of debate going on in the legal hemisphere regarding the relationship between parties in Kickstarter funding. The relationship is actually far less like venture capitalism, and much more like a traditional contractual relationship - ie - for X amount of dollars, you get this X reward in return.…

This just made my weekend. I was always sad watching my brother play it on the Xbox that I don't have, wondering why the hell this wasn't out on the PC already.

It's the tag right at the end when he was leaving the first time that's the real issue in play here - the insinuation of spreading his e-mail around to everyone. That's the big no-no that she was probably let go for, the warranties made to customers about not distributing personal information are very paramount, and…

It's the Eighties! Do a lot of coke and vote for Ronald Reagan!

I was sold at the video, but I was prepared to sign over progeny when he talked about Miyazaki as a major artistic influence. Serious flashes of Nausicaa & The Valley of the Wind in this beast - can't get enough.

Once again, my night-owl tendencies have paid off.

Somebody wiser than I in the great ways of anime can probably clear this up easy, but I always thought "hentai" was the earmarker for anime porn. However I read this article, and the show doesn't really seem to be porn, yet is classified as hentai. What's the dealio?

Just goes to show, if you hold out long enough, you'll always be thoroughly disappointed :P (wishing you didn't already have the one you have).

Maybe it'll be an announcement finally admitting how stupid it's been that they haven't been doubling all their Virtual Console releases on both the Wii-U AND the 3DS. I'm really tired of seeing these great, completely undemanding classics being shied away from what would be a perfect mobile platform...that and I just…

She needs to learn early on that others will always take advantage of your mistakes - so EV-train the shit out of your team and get that S.T.A.B. spread ready for those bastard shiny hAxx0Rz legendaries on Wi-Fi Competition, 'cause they're coming for ya kid.

I'm by no means an expert here, but I followed the development of Knights of Pen & Paper. They're certainly a small little studio, but they've been good with updates and hitting their goals, and the products are quite fun (and even though they're 'pay to play', you don't have to spend a dime to enjoy all of the game).…

You obviously haven't actually played KoP&P, or at least not very much, because you would then know (like everyone else who has played) that you don't have to spend a red cent to progress and enjoy the game to its fullest.

I'd like to meet you in a slow BMW to China...

Nah. Been kickin' it since Mega Man 2 in '89, but thanks for playing! We'd also like to present you with a $10.00 gift card at "Slow Your Roll" Furniture Warehouse, where you can buy a new folding chair to replace whatever tortured pedestal you've slowly oozed into and conjoined with while you were developing bad…

Yeah. I like to think I know a fair amount about VG music composers, and even have my favorites (Eastern: Yasunori Mitsuda, Nobuo, Yuka Tsujiyoko, Masashi Hamauzu, Hiroki Kikuta, etc. - Western guys like Jeremy Soule, Inon Zur, Jack Wall, Russell Brower), but I've almost never heard of even one of these guys, and I…

TO THE INTERNET!

Exactly. This is the art-style I'm reminded of the most. Man, that movie was so freaking cool in conception/design - just wish the actual film hadn't blew.

This is most certainly not a universal perspective on Christians. As a long-time Evangelical Presbyterian who grew up in the church and still keeps it at heart, I find this persons response rather ridiculous and his perspective...limited? Is that the right word? It's a story, it merely watching a story unfold in a…

Points for Valve providing grand customer service. However to take this complaint anywhere further up the chain would be to set bad precedent. Going through this scene in the game is nigh identical to reading about it happening in a book, it's merely a matter of perspective, and requires nothing from the person.
