I was at Target Monday, and there was a PS4 on display which I took for a spin. The demo for Contrast kept crashing at the Ghost Note club, and the PS4 has longer load/sync times than I would've thought. Kind of embarrassing, when Sony wants to show off their new product and it keeps malfunctioning. Nonetheless, it's…

In the Chinese culture you see many people keeping their pinky and/or thumbnails long to pick and peel foods, and one's nose. Having really long nails was once a status symbol showing a life without much work, and thus great wealth.

I read this one the crapper, and immediately felt like browsing porn.

Not so much a summary, but a description. But yes, sometimes they can be too descriptive.

Streaming venues already have that potential issue. on Netflix, Amazon Video On Demand, and Vudu you browse TV shows through a list of the episodes including names. On the newest versions of the apps, as soon as the episode reaches the credits a bar pops up at the bottom giving you the option to skip to the next…

But amongst the big blockbusters you have the original Star Wars trilogy, the Lord of the Rings, Pixar movies, Tarantino movies, Titanic, The Dark Knight, District 9, Inception and others that you would be hard pressed to find someone who would argue that they're just entertaining but not profound.

Young adult speaking here. At 25, I simetimes find it embarassing to flip through the library's YA section. However to me, it just seems as if the YA market has a tougher gatekeeper to get past and therefore it either ensures quality or a proven commercial formula. Present in YA fiction is a truthfulness in the…

In Chinese there are no gender specific pronouns, so learning them is one of the major difficulties and number one mistakes for native Chinese ESL students.

A common trait of computer usage. URLs don't allow spaces either, and in some OSes, filenames.

The problem is that there are games designed to have L2/R2 used by the middle fingers while in conjunction with L1/R1 with the index fingers. Many shooters typically use L2/R2 to crouch, throw grenades, or melee, and all that is supposed to be done usually in tandem with the index fingers aiming and shooting.

THE SHOVE WAS TOO DAMN HIGH!

I remember quick saving just so I could wipe the smirk off that brat Louis Pan with impunity and with pepper spray, a baton, and a GEP gun.

Is that an elven cape? I applaud this innovation and would love for a militaries to adopt this.

I like how you selectively listed all 3 implying the exclusion of the original Bat-Girl Bette Kane, who admittedly did not kick ass.

Oh, playing as Catwoman was one of the favorite parts of Arkham City for me and my girlfriends.

As a feminist, I didn't mind that Catwoman was vulnerable to physical assault, or was repeatedly called a bitch and threatened with rape. If anything, Arkham City being a prison filled with angry sociopathic testosterone filled males it would make me mad if it pretended that horror of sexual violence didn't exist.

Thankfully due to the fact that Netflix has featured the movie amongst it's streaming catalog for many years and the fact that Matt Reeves takes every opportunity to praise the original film (Unlike some directors and distributors that seem ashamed to admit it's not an original idea), Let Me In has created a legion of…

Took me a while to appreciate All Star Superman.

I haven’t been scared by a video game or movie in years. I don’t mean to sound like some internet tough guy, honestly those types who believe that the ability to feel fear, pain, or vulnerability to be a weakness annoy me. I guess it’s just because I’ve played and seen too many horror stories and now I know every…

For me the problem with Doom 3 and Dead Space was that there was no suspense. A monster pops up around every corner and behind every vent or doorway, so I just got used to it.
