Something I don’t understand — and perhaps somebody could explain it to me because I admittedly might have missed something — is how the Doctor can meet up with this incarnation of River Song anymore. When he met up with her in ‘The Name of the Doctor’, it was her digitally stored echo he was encountering — so that’s…

Yeah, I’ve never had my credit card information saved to my account, and I imagine I never will.

Well, yeah. The temperature thing is a pretty bad flub. If you're going to do an experiment like this, you have to do it right. Also, I would have liked to see him do the experiment on a full-sized steel beam, not a half-inch sliver. I think it would be good to see how long it takes for a full-sized beam to heat all…

Thing is, ambition doesn’t mean much if it’s misdirected.

I had only a Wii U for current gen gaming not too long ago myself. If you can afford a pretty good gaming PC and you don’t care too much about the console exclusives you’ll be missing (such as Until Dawn and — for a while at least — Rise of the Tomb Raider), then jump on board. I’ve found Steam to be a great service,…

On the upside, however, Valve finally implemented Steam refunds this year, a system that got its first big test (and justification) in the wake of Arkham Knight’s botched release.

Yeah, I think it feels truer to the reboot Kirk. I doubt this version of Kirk would have called McCoy something as old fashioned as “Bones” without something else playing into the nickname. And Karl Urban provided that something.

I’m as nostalgic as the next gamer; but when it comes to video game consoles I’d like to have in my possession right now, I’m all about the present. An Xbox One with Rise of the Tomb Raider is all I really want this year.

I love my Wii U, but I know it’s dying. I think Nintendo knows it’s dying too. That would explain their sad E3 2015 showing.

Mass Effect: Andromeda is being developed in the same engine, right? I imagine it’s going to look incredible.

Yeah, the FFVII remake is a timed PS4 exclusive. I don’t think there’s any word on how long that period of exclusivity will be. I'm fine with waiting for it (since I likely won't be buying a PS4). And by the time it comes to Xbox One, maybe the entire game will be collected in one package.

Unfortunately, MS was in recovery mode for a while after shooting themselves in the foot over and over in the lead-up to the Xbox One’s launch. PS4 had a clear advantage in the beginning just by not being a marketing disaster. Only when MS unshackled the console by removing Kinect did they finally allow it to flourish.

I think the Ps4 is a pretty good system and a very good value at its current price point, but I just don’t like that controller. The battery life is bad enough, but that isn’t my main beef with it. My main problem with the thing is that I don’t like both analog sticks being jammed together in the middle. (Also, it…

Come on, you know you want this thing. [Star Wars Battlefront Deluxe Edition (PS4) with Han Solo Fridge, $100]

It’s the talk of the Internet: a big Steam “leak” just dropped, and people are saying it “confirms” things like PC ports of Everybody’s Gone To The Rapture and Journey.

I wonder if we’ll ever get the reverse of this with a release of Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture on PC. It’s another “walking simulator” that — to me at least — didn’t make sense as a PS4 exclusive when it seems ideally suited for a PC release.

I think the PS3 tech demo Cloud and the early Advent Children cloud look the best.

I’m not thrilled about this, but I guess I would be okay with it as long as each part is cheap. Let’s say they end up releasing it in six parts. I’d be fine with that as long as each part costs no more than $10 (since a full release would have been $60).

I don’t think it’s likely that Nintendo will abandon split-screen gaming. What I don’t like is that they haven’t really tried to bring that experience (as much as possible anyway) to their online gaming experiences with in-game voice chat. Without in-game voice chat, I may as well be racing against a bunch of computer…

Nintendo hasn’t ever really dominated the field with hardware specs
