Aw, and I came here expecting pics of Zombiu!

Buy them on sale and it's ~$35 a year, which really isn't that bad. Why not start complaining about how netflix costs a whole $96 per year, while Prime is just $80 (and includes free 2 day shipping on all kinds of things)? The issue is that yes, you paid for the content provider- Netflix, Amazon, whoever. But that…

Hell yeah! I just started that game again over the weekend.

Sounds Like Forza: Project Need for Test Midnight Racing. I think I'll stick to actual Forza for now, but they could prove me wrong. Sounds more like they could have used the Project Gotham name, IMO.

Did anyone else notice the point where he very deliberately shot a bad guy in the knee with an arrow? That made me laugh.

Damn those wheels are fugly. Replace those with basically anything else, and it will look much, much better.

I agree. It's racing. If Sato hadn't gone for it, he'd have finished second, which, while still a great result for a rookie outing, isn't a win- which he reasonably could have had. Could he have been more patient? Sure, but then he could also have just as easily given up his shot at the win. Could Dario have given him…

Hot Pursuit was fun, but this better be more like Most Wanted than Burnout. Hot Pursuit was a pretty good interpretation of Hot Pursuit 2- maybe this will be a good interpretation of Most Wanted. It better be, or they'll really piss me off. Don't fail me now, Criterion!

I'll admit that maybe I didn't get to the "hard parts" but from what I palyed when I rented it on 360 (planning to purchase on PC, barring any horrific porting issues with controls), point 5 didn't apply to me at all. I was jumping around and landing hard like the heavy alcoholic Max is in this game, and I didn't use…

Since Activision Blizzard had net income of over $1B in FY11, I don't think they really need to be too worried about whatever amount the settlement was for.

1. I don't trust everyone with their heavy-ass cars- eating, texting, talking, doing anything but paying attention. No thanks.

Right, but Google Search is also an actual search engine, which provides paid links at the top that are also labeled as "sponsored." As long as they're forthcoming about which air fares are being given preferential placement, which it looks like they are (given the "Sponsored" marking and the definition that's right…

Maybe I'm missing the point.... a referral fee, as the author states, is ok. But having results in a box that pretty clearly says "Sponsored" in the top, next to a disclaimer that says they may have been compensated (hint: if it says "Sponsored" they probably got compensated for that placement), what's the issue?…

I got mine in a couple of months ago. It's very, very cool. Basically you just have to be very serious about your schedule for the first week, then it has learned the basics and is good to start self learning. One thing that's neat is that it will adjust the times it turns on and off around your activity, so it…

Right. My nest was easy to hook up- my furnace (not enough summer temps to justify AC in our area) connection has a 24 amp hot wire, a control wire to the furnace, and a ground. Very simple, pretty universal. Not entirely- some controls are limited to a single room and have very simple controls (ie, the "Comfort Zone"…

I'm really glad that a Dodge Charger is a "lightweight sedan" now.

Interesting, and lame. I wonder what they'd have to do in order to get that certification, because those were a lot of fun to watch. And I'm sad I never got a chance to run my car out there.

Utah isn't in the NW. I'd have included Pacific Grand Prix (aka, PGP), the new track adjacent to Pacific Raceways- but it's a completely separate operation, so not part of Pacific Raceways. It's a multi-configuration track that runs Lap Attack days on the full configuration a few times a month during spring and…

lol that video is simultaneously awesome and terrible. Didn't know he was located up here. I'm guessing the Veyron GS at about 3:00 is the one I saw on Friday, too.

ORP is definitely a blast. Not very high speed, but it will teach you a ton about how elevation affects your car's balance in corners. Very, very valuable experience.
