Oh, exactly. I'll do a more detailed write-up when I give my top 10 on the Games of the Year article whenever that comes out, but it is very much a game about epiphany and the mysteries of the human mind.

There was more than one occasion where I would wake up in the middle of the night with the solution to an impossible puzzle appearing vividly in my brain, like I had been struck by some kind of divine inspiration. And I would think, there's no way I just figured that out, I must be remembering the puzzle wrong. And

That's what this piece of shit is about? I saw the trailer before Allied and it looked like straight up garbage. But this sounds even worse than what the trailer indicated.

Proud to say I haven't seen a single one of these movies.

I'm not a huge fan of this band, but much respect for putting up some money for good causes instead of just running their mouths. My wife and I have initiated a policy of donating money to Planned Parenthood or Habitat for Humanity every time one of our right-wing relatives pisses us off, and it feels so much better

How spoilery is this article? I'm definitely going to play Obduction but I'm waiting on the price to come down a bit while I work through a few other games, and I don't want to dick up any good puzzles for myself.

I seem to be in the extreme minority, but The Witness is my GOTY. I don't think any game has ever challenged me so much on such a cerebral level; over and over again, I found myself pulling off mental feats that felt like they should have been beyond my abilities. Some people bounce right off it, but give in to its

Fuck that false equivalency-ass bullshit. I'm not giving this son of a bitch an inch until I'm satisfied that he's not the crypto-fascist shitbeast national embarrassment that he worked so hard to convince me he is.

Nazi producers, fuck off.

They actually photoshopped his hands to be 300% larger for that picture.

I figure somewhere along the way, some braindead Hollywood suit decided that "Title: Subtitle" was intrinsically more appealing to audiences than "Title 2," probably in an effort to look like he had contributed something, and that just became the conventional wisdom because nobody wanted to look like they were stuck

He definitely had plenty of those, but they're still distributed among the three groups I described.

Aw, next you're going to tell me that Ben Carson was picked for HUD Sec for some reason other than his extensive professional experience in housing and urban development.

2016 is gearing up to kill Cormac McCarthy, Bob Dylan, and Oprah in the last hours of December 31. No time for these chumps.

I think there are basically three main classes of Trump voters:

I would say this is absolutely the reason why it ultimately works. It's more about the struggle between good and bad people than good and bad factions. Luke is an idealistic farmboy who wants to go seek adventure; Leia is a dedicated freedom fighter who isn't afraid to put her life on the line for her cause; Han is a

That's true in part, but wasn't the ultimate goal to demonstrate the power of the Death Star and thereby discourage the Rebellion through a show of force? I mean, it's definitely peak evil for the Empire, don't get me wrong.

Even though I love Star Wars, this is something that's always kind of bugged me: the evilness of the Empire is not very well established in the films. Even blowing up Alderaan—which is, by far, the most evil thing they do—is done in an attempt to quell an existential threat to their government. It's not something they

Arnold looks kind of inhuman to begin with, though.
