Yes, it’s been a long time since I played it, but I remember the in-game description of the biotic shield challenge screaming to me that it needed to be Jacob. I don’t remember the exact words, but it was something along the lines of “you need someone who can maintain a biotic shield with extreme discipline” or…

An argument can be made for not parsing the social messaging of films like this one too deeply, as the creative team probably didn’t.

E-Tier: Any and every time the character creator lets me apply black eyeliner and black lipstick to my character.

Okay, I’ll bite, what’s the background gag in Penny Arcade that everyone is giving props to? I mean, I see what’s going on, but what’s the significance that I’m missing?

The Navigator looked up from his console. “Time tunnel locked on target, Captain.” The Captain grunted in reply.

I love Brad Neely and will give this a shot, but I’m surprised that the animation house responsible for the Uber-trippy Midnight Gospel homogenized his style so much. China, IL and Brad Neely’s Harg Nallin’ Sclopio Peepio had such varied and ingenious character designs, and here it’s like they took one of Neely’s go-to…

I hope Jai Courtney and Laverne Cox get married and hyphenate their names to Jai and Laverne Courtney-Cox

Very enjoyable video, felt like a breezy overview of interesting architectural styles and made me hanker to get back to CONTROL and play the DLC.

Playing DA:O with a female Inquisitor, I tried to romance Morrigan because she struck me as the most interesting character, and she turned me down flat because she doesn’t swing that way (how can a forest witch not??).

I’ve long heard that due to poor printing on crappy paper, you could only expect good color fidelity from primary colors, which is why the heroes all wore red, yellow, and blue while the villains wear secondary colors like green, purple, and orange. Though why that excuse didn’t result in the heroes all wearing cyan…

If I recall correctly, this is the movie where Stallone’s hero keeps saying “I’ll figure it out, I’ll get us out of here!” and as people keep dying he keeps repeating it with more and more desperation and despair. This elevated “Daylight” above the rest of its ilk for me, because the hero was extremely fallible and kne…

Agreed. It’s almost too on the nose for Ozymandias to have named himself after a person best known for having his works crumble into ruin.

Not to go against the Word of God, but Veidt’s motivation seemed clear in that he wanted to be a Great Man of History, to surpass Alexander the Great and Rameses in his works. Building his fortune was just a prerequisite for making that happen, not an end in itself. Remember his exultation when the world drew back…

I’m a cishet man so my priorities are different from yours, but my ranking would be:

There’s no definition of typo that limits it to mistakes made during typing. A typographical error is a typographical error whether it’s a hand-painted sign, a tattoo, or a video game icon. Typos existed long before typewriters did.

I immediately thought the same thing. But then I decided the hats, coats, and goggles made them the Spider-Noir version of the Compilers, so they’d be cool as long as they delivered liver, hard cheese, and bar or duc sandwiches. But THEN I saw the next image of the backwards-flipping cyan-glowing business guy…

I’ve been playing Fo76 solo, and while it is a good map to run around and explore, I wouldn’t say it’s a good chill-out game. For one, since it’s survival oriented, you’ll be constantly managing your hunger, thirst, ammunition, and weapon/armor condition, and by extension your limited inventory. For two, it takes a…

Excellent episode, hilarious all around. But I am suddenly left wondering, is the band I have always thought of as being pronounced “Sloth Rust” actually supposed to be “Slow Thrust?” Is the ambiguity deliberate??

My theory: He actually picked up the phone, she was just too coked out to realize it.

Mary Holland is great and I love everything I’ve seen her do. I enjoyed the premise, production design, and script, but also felt like it could have been executed better. I assume it’s a budget thing but it didn’t commit fully to the insanity that nihilism + unlimited power should have been, and the twists were not…
