So if I bought X-Com during the Summer Sale, I should play that before I buy this, right?

I absolutely loved Fringe, but pretty much EVERYTHING in there struck me as some version of bullshit. For instance, LSD trips into other people's consciousness, someone's brain waves "possessing" another person, the removal (and subsequent re-insertion) of brain tissue associated with negative behaviors and…

I think some of it has to do with WHEN you started playing games a little. When I was first getting going (mid-90s), PC games were more interesting than console games. Also, I had access to a PC, and a console was more expensive than my parents were willing to spring for...and since I was mostly interested by the…

I play exclusively on the PC, not as a "master race" thing or anything but because I prefer it. The few times I've ventured into console games (and I have an Xbox 360, which I mostly use as a media extender) it's been basically the same game as what I play on the PC. There's also something to be said for not tying up…

So people in The Canyons are afraid to merge?

Being not that familiar with the Saw movies, I always thought that image was from those. Whoops.

My 7 and 9 year old daughters found the maps I had for Morrowind (and the expansion set maps, which were also cool) and Oblivion and took them to use as treasure maps. While I don't actually NEED the maps (I haven't even had either game installed for at least three or four years), the 16 year old in me almost threw a…

Once I lost my star I kinda stopped going back, there was way too much drama and I just kinda died off. Maybe I'll swing back around one of these days, give it a shot.

I used to be a Deadspin commenter WAAAAY back when there were stars and closed commenting accounts, and I really liked the group there. Now, though, I think it's a lot of people who don't always seem to get the joke.

To say that players don't have tons of industry to move in soccer is a little bit of a misnomer. Players have a lot of ways to move, it's just a question of providing leverage.

They really could've probably done this in a big, epic, two and a half-three hour movie. Would've possibly made the most sense that way, too.

I really, really like my Fisher Space Pen. It might just be because I'm love with the gimmick, but it does seem to write smoother (and writing on a Moleskin is really, really nice).

That looks like a bad Walter Bishop LSD trip. But I like the idea.

I'm hoping there will be a Game of Thrones mod for this as well...

I hear you on the general dullness of the Dorne stuff, but I kind of see Oberon as almost more a part of Tyrion's storyline, and a big part of what moves the Tyrion, Cersei, and Tywin lines forward.

Oberon isn't, though. He's barely even in Dorne.

So does that mean that those orange properties aren't as valuable anymore?

From my fairly limited experience, the Logitech gamepads were not durable at all; I went through about three of them in a year before finally just switching over to a PS2 controller with an adapter (which I later upgraded to an X-Box 360 controller). I mostly only played Madden for the PC when I did this, so it's been…

This really needs to be a new post every time you do it so that arguments from previous lists are omitted from the conversation.

I think that's a key, that you need to be really forgiving of yourself for budget snafus at the beginning of the process. My wife and I just started formally budgeting back in April, and this month we've really screwed up somehow; rather than trying to charge our way out of it, though, and extending the problem, we're…
