Publishers would most likely push for the removal or severe toning-down of nudity at the very least so as to avoid having the game pulled from retail shelves. Walmart is pretty well-known (at least here in the States) for refusing to stock items it deems to be too provocative.

As an animator in the industry, I’ve seen firsthand what the actors and actresses do when they’re on stage for a shoot, and I have no problem with them wanting to secure a good deal for themselves - they work hard. However, I also see it from the developer’s viewpoint. Games are getting more and more expensive to…

I’ve loved 100%-ing the previous Arkham games. This was the first one to really feel like I had to slog through everything to get that 100%. What really kind of pushed me over the edge was that I played nearly the entire game on “hard”, but

I'm not sure that was his point. I felt the point he was making was, if you're killing all these people, including innocent bystanders like maids, the game world will rightly treat your character as the bad guy. People will turn against you if their morals no longer align with your own (within the game). It's a far…

Did you see the entire episode? Because the clip, out of context, isn't presenting a real event within the show.

That style of lift is actually pretty common in the US as well. Ski resorts all use unrestrained chair lifts and generally rely on the skier/snowboarder’s desire not to fall a hundred feet to their death.

Actually, I bought the original on release way back. My recollection is that it originally shipped with no difficulty setting for the race - it was hard as hell. I think they patched in the difficulty switch for the race later on. I only mention it because I remember being insanely frustrated with the race on my first…

That effing auto race in Mafia tho. Pain in my ass.

It’s not $6, but AmazonBasics has an Apple Certified lightning cable in 3 and 6 ft lengths. $7.99 and $9.99 respectively.

I’m sure it’s a typo, but “spooped” really should be a word.

I didn't think there was a way to make a pun out of this, but ewe found a way.

We keep saying Marvel is the one driving this de-prioritization of characters they don’t own the film rights to, but I honestly wonder how much of that is at the directive of Disney. Wouldn’t surprise me at all if the Mouse was behind it all along.

Rocksteady isn’t offering different versions of the product. WB is. The publisher is the one who puts these preorder packages together. Not the developer. Rocksteady is delivering exactly what it is supposed to - the game.

Yeah, based on the way the announcement specifically called out “XBox Exclusive, Holiday 2015”, I’m guessing it is exclusive for this holiday season and will be released on PS4 at the start of 2016.

Really good, but felt very “Jerk Superman Meets Akira”. That was the first thing that came to mind when they had the overhead shot of the force field, and then only cemented it when they showed Brainiac (though I know his appearance is more akin to a kind of cross between Tetsuo and the espers)

Publishers won’t allow that. I’m sure developers - at least the ones I know, would greatly prefer a system that puts less stress on successful E3 showings. But publishers rely on building hype early and trying to sustain it so they can secure your dollars either via pre-order or at release.

Just finished Rogue, and I have to admit, I’m starting to feel a lot like Al Pacino in Godfather 3. Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in via some new setting or gameplay tweak that makes me think “hmmm, this could be interesting!”

Love Trumper for their shaving goods. Never tried a deodorant from them though. Color me intrigued. Thanks for the heads-up!

I think the people complaining about graphics are either kids or incompetent adults.

Jealous. I work in San Diego, very, very close to Miramar. I see these flying overhead almost daily. And since I live in Orange County, I drive up through Camp Pendleton every day and have seen them just chilling, almost next to the freeway. But never have ridden one. Would love the opportunity, for sure.
