Still on the Star Wars Battlefront hype train. Lack of content aside, the game is spectacularly made, and I enjoy almost every minute of it (damn you, DL-44.) Also still playing a D3 seasonal character, because you always have a new item to spend 10k bloodshards trying to acquire.

You must be new here. Welcome to Gawker Media - a conglomerate of angry bitching about something, raving fan boy/girl-ing about something, or off beat articles, like those written by the very funny Torch over at Jalopnik. Enjoy your stay. Or don’t. Kotaku seems to love/hate Fallout 4.

“For those of you who don’t know what the Hellcat is, please allow me to provide the following background: it is a 707-horsepower rental car.”

Dammit. Sided with the Institute and Order 66’d the Railroad :(

“..nearly half of the 12.2 million people fleeing Syria are children. These babies aren’t terrorists. Their only crime is being born in Syria, being born Muslim, and they’re paying for that happenstance with their lives.”

You know, it wasn’t a great game by any means, but I’ll be damned if I didn’t enjoy it. You are completely correct that Luke was able to completely destroy someone with his lightsaber throw. But let’s not forget that both Han, Chewie, Boba Fett, and Jodo Kast could infinitely spam their homing missile.

“In Carly Fiorina’s entire post-collegiate life she has only ever worked for giant, sluggish, underperforming corporations. She has as much experience with innovation and entrepreneurship as the fat groundhog collecting acorns off my porch. Less, even. The groundhog is self-employed.”

If the Protoss seem light on story, it probably stems from a lot of their story being unknown by humans (Terrans) in the game universe. A lot of their struggle is that they were considered the imperfect being by the Xel’Naga and were discarded. This was further exacerbated by internal conflicts about the use of the…

The key with the final Brutal mission of HotS is to expand rapidly and defense your base until your unit count is at least 150. Save Raynor when he needs it, but otherwise wait until you have a sizeable (and upgraded) force. Yes, you can employ special tactics (2 White-Ra references in one post, Yatta!) like using the…

Yeah those were my thoughts too about HotS. The final mission can be completed simply by throwing enough Hydras and Roaches at the enemy base. But the final mission of WoL on Brutal, now that was a challenge.

This, for example, is a backpack you should never bring to a corporate work environment, unless you work at Vice, or whatever firm is responsible for naming new Pokémon characters.

I used to fly for work, averaging about 80k miles per year (I know guys, I’m a lightweight) and 40-50 nights per year in IHG and Hilton hotels. Sleep is difficult for me because the conditions must be perfect and hotel rooms are not ideal in a lot of ways. But eventually I started taking a pillow with me (larger…

As someone who studied jazz guitar at University, I am a huge fan of Rocksmith. But, as a gamer, both games have their purpose. Not everyone has the time to learn how to play an actual guitar. Not everyone wants to invest their lives into being able to play “Highway Star” or any song by Dream Theater when they can…

A friend and I were hungry and noticed there were cookies in a jar above the fridge. The cookies looked like those white/lemon oreos; the ones were the cookie portion is yellow and the cream in the middle was white. We pulled down the jar and had a few cookies. We noticed the cookies were pretty stale, but tasted fine.
