And yet, here you are, on a gaming blog dedicated to the fruits of their efforts, criticizing them for bringing you the entertainment you presumably care enough about that you're here in the first place.

In a way, it's not up to Rocksteady to make that decision. Warner Brothers decided they wanted to annualize the series. Its why Origins came out of Warner Bros. Montreal. WB owns the series and can do whatever they want with it.

Usually school admins, parents, and the law frowns on a coach or teacher getting involved with a student at the school. Her age isn't the issue - it's that she's a student in the school at which he's a coach.

What are you talking about? Hospitals are commonly privately held businesses here in the United States. Is it far-fetched to believe that such a hospital might be owned by a like-minded individual who allows his doctors to refuse treatment to gay men and women?

So if a gay man had to go to a hospital for an emergency surgery, and the only qualified doctor on staff who could perform that surgery didn't want to provide his services to a homosexual, should the doctor be allowed to refuse? Or hell, take it out of the hospital setting and reduce the question to its most simple…

If you're going to ask that, I think it's only fair to point out that most of today's champions couldn't compete against older skaters under the older rules because today's skaters don't have to do figures at all. The figures portion of skating used to take up huge amounts of time and practice but were generally…

Once you finish the game, you're given free reign in the city and can complete any missed side quests. I don't see a game design issue.

Ah, no. I played through NG+ on hard, but haven't started on survivor yet. Thought you were saying my stuff would carry over from hard NG+ to Survivor.

Ah, no. I played through NG+ on hard, but haven't started on survivor yet. Thought you were saying my stuff would carry over from hard NG+ to Survivor.

Wait. Do your supplies and upgrades carry over to a new Survivor game? I was under the impression they didn't.

Not being critical of your point, but I feel like developers just can't win. If the DLC comes out too soon, gamers start in on how it should have been released with the game in the first place. If they actually take their time and develop new content (which takes a lot of time - writing, casting, art/design,…

You didn't play The Last of Us? No judgement, just curious as to why.

Not a huge Barenaked Ladies fan, but I love their version of God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen/We Three Kings, with Sarah McLachlan

That's what I thought too. Burke was the one who told Ripley her daughter died of old age. And he wasn't exactly the most trustworthy person. Definitely capable of lying like that in order to serve his own goals.

It's one thing to procedurally generate a bunch of stuff and put out a slick looking trailer. It's another thing entirely to start programming AI for combat and interaction, to say nothing of the animation cycles that would be needed for various alien species. I'd be very surprised if they were able to complete a…

I remember when this happened, I thought I had made a mistake and exited Dead Eye too soon, so before anything else happened I really quickly reloaded from my last save point and replayed the mission. Then, as I was playing up to that point again, I realized I hadn't made a mistake at all. Crushing.

Williams' head shattered? I hadn't heard about that at all. Sir, you had my curiousity, now you have my attention.

Oh for sure - when I questioned that 1% number, I was thinking maybe it turns out to be even higher. We won't know for sure for a while yet, I think.

True, that is an instance in which the defect was caught before all the units in the batch were distributed to customers. However, I would believe that some percentage of the units reached consumers, were returned, and as these returned units were evaluated by Apple, it came to realize there was a larger problem with…

I hesitate to jump in here, but I'll just mention that there was a huge story of iPhone 5 failures - IIRC something like 5 million to 8 million iPhone 5s (5 plural, not the 5S) were sent back to Foxconn by Apple due to faulty manufacturing processes. That wasn't even at launch of the 5 - it happened in April of this…
