CNN refused to run the exact same ad.

I mean it’s kinda worth a read, so maybe go back and try again? It’s less like an anti-crunch article and more of a reflection on the game compared to the reality in which it was made and the world we live in today.

I’ve never commented on Kotaku before, though I’ve been a religious reader for 3 or 4 years now. As the account name states, I made this account just so I could wholeheartedly endorse this sentiment. This review was utterly fantastic. It truly transcends the medium of “internet review” and becomes something else…

I would imagine the controls for just about any game would feel fudgy after having spent the bulk of 4 years in Destiny.

Kirk, this is easily the best game review I’ve ever read, but also the best writing of any kind that I’ve read on this website. I enjoyed your creative narrative prose over the the technical trappings of FPS and other “data.”

John’s repeated encounters with the “accountant, of sorts” were excellent as well.

You’re right. It’s why I liked the multiplayer sandbox they had. But one of the things that Red Dead Redemption did exceptionally well, in my opinion, is that it organically weaved the setting and traversal of it into its narrative. No game experience—except maybe during certain weather experiences in The Witcher 3—has…

Can someone please explain to me how the extremely numerous religious “homosexuality is a sin!” conservative voters of SC are apparently completely oblivious to the fact that Lindsay Graham is very gay?

As Charlie—anticipating the response of those all too willing to latch onto any powerful man’s excuses for accusations of sexual misconduct—puts it, “I gotta be honest, I didn’t follow most of it, but so cool, man.”

We’re (literally) all Barry Petchesky

I also don’t find the Slate piece so compelling, but more importantly, when we say “impressive intelligence,” I more mean “surprising intelligence based on our expectations of a mollusk and of however we judge animal intelligence.” It’s hard to judge another species so dramatically different from us, regardless. Maybe…

You know who’s responsible for Norm McDonald getting bumped, don’t you?

Why did people hold the door open for the horse? Because they thought the hospital was working inefficiently.

Artists should have learned long ago: letting Weird Al parody a song of yours is a career stepping stone, with nearly no downside. (In fact, Michael Jackson was so savvy that he went for [and I think got] co-writing credit on “Fat”, or maybe “Eat It”...)

Thinking about what you say before you say it makes you phony?

Welcome to Deadspin, this is Billy! 

I’m just trying to figure out what the hell the point of any of this was. Of COURSE the show isn’t completely unedited/unfiltered/etc. This seems purely contrarian for contrarianism’s sake.

Billy Haisley’s article “there is nothing candid about lebron’s the shop” is a candid look at what Billy Haisely thought of the new HBO show. However, the real purpose of the article is to make money.

These people call themselves Atlas Shrugged fans, but they recorded these videos for free to benefit somebody else? Pfft.

I liked the Dexter finale—(SPOILER!!!) Lithgow kills Dexter’s wife and Dexter’s life comes full circle. His penance for years of dispensing vigilante justice.
