Sure, when you’re just falling. But when you’re diving towards the ground, face first, and can land with enough force that the shockwave knocks any bad guys within 15 feet to the ground, it’s pretty clear that we’re beyond plausibility.

I’ve been replaying the Arkham games lately, and one of the best parts of it is not having to worry about dying because I fell off some random building I’m climbing trying to find a Riddler trophy.

Every one of those WiiSports songs sounds like it should be playing at the Chao Garden In Sonic Adventure.

I’m not liking that cape at all (both color and size - if you’re not Shazam and your cape isn’t at least floor-length, you’re doing it wrong), and the suit itself seems a bit bland. Hopefully if we actually get a Batwoman series out of this, they’ll fix those.

I liked a lot about Pre-Sequel - the story was fine if, by necessity, non-essential, the characters were interesting, and Cryo weapons were a great addition.

If this was a real MMO, Emilie would show up to the dungeon run 45 minutes late, with no consumables (I thought the guild provided flasks!), and not remembering that she’d swapped specs for PVPing until after you pulled the first boss.

Man I loved Skies of Arcadia. Exploring and finding the discoveries was a blast (and I thought it was kind of funny that you couldn’t actually get credit for discovering the world was round, since your rival would take credit for it while you were stuck in Main Plot Hell), and I loved loved loved the ship battles. 

“Goodwill from gamers” will buy you a cup of coffee, if you also have $2 on you.

I say the opposite - Thanos was/is a genocidal madman, but he was one with a very specific idea about what he wanted to do. Heck, he apparently made it a point to only kill half the Asgardian refugees in the opening act of the movie. Someone like that doesn’t play fast and loose on the very last step.

So when some Incom marketing executive named it the X-Wing, he was pulling the Star Wars versions of using Latin to class it up to impress high-rollers?

Man. That’s the good stuff there. I had to read this twice to realize it wasn’t real.

I wasn’t sold at first, but the nervous look to the side before she muttered something about grim and bleak being a great way to make TV and film won me over.

Charles, how many episodes are you reviewing here? Just the first one, or were you provided with a few?

Because what usually happened is it asked to install the update and you were busy so you clicked ‘Install Later’ and then it was later, you were still playing a game, there was another popup which you didn’t because of your game, and it timed out and started installing because it assumed you weren’t around.

All things considered, at this point I’d say anything Rocksteady does is a day one purchase for me. 

I’ll be honest, this line

I read the first book sitting in a bookstore one long, dreary afternoon, and it’s stuck with me in away few YA books have.

And also that he is, in some ways, outgrown what it stood for. There’s also another reason why he literally can’t wear the suit.

I really, really, REALLY think you’re intentionally ignoring basic common sense about this. No knowledge needed of Star Wars minutia needed, just basic understanding about how distance works.

Man, I loved Simone. Hopefully she sticks around (it seems likely, given the premise of the Earthly experiment, but this IS The Good Place, so you never know). She and Chidi were perfect together.
