As someone who has been an active member in AA for many years, I believe I can speak to this. A sponsor is just there to help you get sober, not be your life coach. If this is something the woman is doing while attempting to follow the tenants of a program that is attempting to impart the concept of "emotional…

While it sees in vogue to hate on Activision, they’ve actually done some great things for the games under their umbrella. They’ve done what they can to listen to fan demand and even cut this game genre off when it had reached market saturation, instead of continuing to pump it out and really shove it down our throats.

Yup! Both of these games were extremely clever and solid in their story telling. I absolutely LOVE Valkyria Chronicles! One of the best games of the last generation. Another clever game in the vein of Indi is The Dig. Most likely cause it made by many of the same people, it's a game people seem to forget about!

I mean, I believe that the trade off is totally worth it. Especially because your complaint as to why its bad is that an article on a website mentions a game that might not come out for a long time (if ever) and that there is a lot of garbage hanging out in a store.

But thats the way that it is with all games. Just with the publisher/developer system, we don't see all the games that get cancelled (usually).

Totally! I’m working with a company in Missouri actually, and they certainly have people looking just fine. Then again, I know folks in Minnesota who seem like they don’t even want teeth anymore. HAH

Nope. The people who insisted this had absolutely zero grounds for their argument, and should be reminded constantly about how silly they looked when buying into Internet group think.

That’s just because we’re such a weird, spread out country with multiple hubs of culture. In New York and LA, 2 cities I'm intimately familiar with, people are terrible in shape and have great teeth. In the south, where self care ranks a little lower on the list of important things, along with heavily sugary diets,…

Exactly. I mean, GTA has the same content, especially when interacting with police, but the example of it being pastiche is so clearly driven home that that area of controversy was more or less a non issue.

I have a slight feeling that beast mode will become more of something to watch for in potential DLC expansions. It’d be great to gain more insight into this portion of the lore with an extra area and some new enemies.

I would imagine so. Being top management of a company myself, I can’t imagine something like this being for “no reason” or “nepotism” as much as people want to characterize EA as being an evil, poorly run organization.

That feels a bit shitty, but if we look at the reception of the games Visceral has put out, there has been a pretty standard decline. Plus, the current situation with the political reception of Hardline and people’s misgiving’s about its portrayal of militarized police force, EA has the evidence that perhaps the Steve…

A few things in the press release make me cringe. Comments like “anti-terrorist agent playing by his own rules,” “enabling him and the player a greater sense of self-control,” and “conspiracies surrounding the Illuminati.”

To be fair, that game was oddly addictive back in 2009...

not half bad. a few degrees cooler and a little lacking in oxygen, but we do with what we’re given, eh?

as a 6’4” dood, my NN3DS fits brilliantly in my back pocket.

Stop the presses! A From Software game has odd technical issue!!!

to be fair, you don’t even have to play the game to have a good tim...

I’ve had much the same experience with the game as yourself. It is interesting how the world building, while getting totally bonkers and amazingly esoteric by the end (bucking many trends set by gaming in the current era), becomes almost mundane in its insanity. A lot of the reveals towards the end feel to be not as…

probs won’t :-/
