Scientology was really hard on Leah Remini.

That photo looks like it should be accompanied by a ransom note.

You ain't seen nothin' yet

That's actually offensive enough that someone may pursue legal action. If they use Bay-area lawyer Mi Su Yu, that station is fucked.

This is going to be great as soon as you line up a few of Deadspin's favorite commenters.

Francis is so funny; he's real good at lifting shitty jokes from forums and poorly using them in his videos

Nope, I finally managed to get mine after recently re-installing it by:

So did they fix this infamous 003 error code that has rendered the game unplayable since release for many customers? I read through the forums to get an idea of what the experience has been like for people playing this game and I just feel so sorry for them.

"It's fine, coach. It's a rental."

You're kidding me... you think it's perfectly acceptable to have a product you own permanently disabled and never usable ever again? You'd have a point if it was an MMO, but this is for all intents and purposes a single player game that I believe has some co-op capabilities. Keep drinking that corporate kool aid. This…

I don't understand why this is just a little blurb on Kotaku. This is a serious concern for games moving forward and is probably worthy of a longer discussion.

There is reference on the forum to refunds. Is EA giving refunds? Who is eligible?

Soooooo, I literally can't play it anymore? At all?
