Technically wouldn't GTA:SA be the first mainstream AO game? Granted, it became only in original copies of the game, and that was because of a technicality, but still, it was mainstream, and it was AO.
I find it disappointing that Pacific Rim opened up as poorly as it did in Japan. I had hoped it would go out like gang busters, but it opened up fifth, after The Wind Rises, World War Z, which opened up this weekend with PR, Monster's University, and something called The After-Dinner Mysteries. Maybe it was just…
The ultimate problem with Razer product is that, while they might work great for a time, and will last you a year, that is a really crappy standard to hold a peripheral you'll probably be using every day. I had a pair of razor headphones and a mouse that I won from that World of Warcraft Mountain Dew giveaway a few…
For being a non-Hayao Miyazaki movie I'd say it's one of the best, although I have yet to see Grave of the Fireflies because I'm never quite prepared to be depressed by a gorgeous anime movie. It's certainly the best thing to come out of the studio since Howl's Moving Castle.
Aw man, I got all excited that Porco Rosso was coming out on Blu-Ray in America. Way to shatter my hopes.
Because the internet. No other reason is needed.
Whoa, no NSFW tag for that multiplayer gif? Not everyone wants to see frogs getting it on.
What other mecha movie?
I had no intention of seeing this movie in 3D because... well, typically movies in 3D don't really add much. Now I have a reason, because every theater I go to is pretty much a Regal theater, and if that means I get an awesome fucking poster then 3D it is.
I'm not sure which is more terrifying, the Villager's soulless stare, or the Dub step.
For a moment there I thought I was on io9 and this topic was about the mediocre BBC sci-fi TV show about people living on a colonized planet in the future. I'm glad to learn that was wrong.
I used to have my Lego set, or at least most of it, in a tub exactly like that. Tons of pieces from dozens of different sets and various instruction manuals because even as a kid I wanted to have them just in case.
Why does there need to be something that starts a rumor mill for Half-Life 3? Someone coughing is usually enough to start a rumor about Half-Life 3.
It usually is, but it can come in a lot of varieties. There's this theater down in Los Angeles that I used to go to when I spent more time down there that sold pretzels that were long and fluffy and was somewhat similar the bun on that burger as far as the type of dough went. They also had awesome pizza, but that's…
Unless I'm mistaken Del Toro has said he's lost some interest in making At The Mountain of Madness because of Prometheus' similar premise, rating and budget.
God, I really hope this movie doesn't end up ruining any future prospects for Del Toro directed films because of some piece of shit Sandler comedy. I mean, he's probably set for life with all of the consulting work he does on Dreamwork's animated movies, but de mas Del Toro de... better... I'm really bad at spanish.
Because, despite the fact that it's a show about IT guys, the show doesn't really revolve around them doing IT stuff. It shows up from time to time, but that's more setting than anything. In the four series that they did that two minutes is about like 80 percent of the IT jokes that they do.
They don't really pander to the nerd culture though, no more than say Spaced did by having Simon Pegg play Resident Evil. Yes, there are references to games and the geek subculture, but it's not like the entire show relies on making references to obscure physics thought experiments every 10 seconds that 99 percent of…
