An interesting perspective I can understand adding a exploitation element. And being an entertainer is partly a popularity content. In some ways it reminds of when the Dixie Chicks bashed Bush publicly. Music aside it totally pissed of the fan base who largely supported him and ended up totally alienating them, so…

Maybe I am jaded, but most of the time (and there are exceptions) I usually feel like it is still about the star when they put out statements on issues - not that they really care. It so often takes on a look at me tone.

I understand - I just disagree (and don't mistake me for and Iggy Azalea fan by any stretch) that stars like her have any obligation or expectation to speak out on issues. She's an entertainer and I just think any obligation ends at putting on a good show. If she (any star) wants to do more good on them, but I've…

I guess I just don't expect the same out of artists and entertainers. In fact I can only think of a few that really get involved. Most seem to be just about themselves and publicity.

I think the same can be said of a lot of stars though. They promote themselves to a fan base for profit but do little about the issues of said fan base. I guess I just don't even expect them to. Their job is entertainment, not social advocate, political or civil rights leader. I mean if they want to go there fine…

While I enjoyed the Lord of the Rings, by the end I was a little done with his approach to these movies. And I wasn't able to get into the first Hobbit flick at all so I'm glad to have others take up these types of films.

I don't really like either of these people but I am puzzled by many people's expectations that entertainment stars are somehow required to comment on stuff like this. I really don't care if any of the people I follow weigh in on politics or social issues. It just isn't something I expect out of them.

Not really - because otherwise people would abuse a nice move by Ubi by getting the pass to get one of those games at a lower price than they are being sold for. Plus since some of the DLC is now free the pass isn't quite the same value. My guess is they will adjust the price or what you get before reintroducing.

"Honestly, from what I'm reading of ACU, it was so broken and bogged down with content that served as in-game advertisement for mobile apps that, well, you didn't really get a complete game for $60 to begin with; so, give EVERYBODY Far Cry 4 for free and still charge for the DLC!"

This!! I got the game and played it a few hours before I say any reviews. My experience has been great. I really like the game. Of all the lists of woes the internet touted, I only fell through the map a couple times and saw none of the rest. I guess a few slow downs here and there but not many. I was shocked by…

It is a little annoying but most games I've gotten recently on Xbox one (Forza Horizon 2, Unity and Dragon Age) have started the patch/install but also let me start playing the game in 5-10 minutes. I know Forza I bought digitally and it took forever to finish installing however I played for about 3 hours with no…

And yet Elise seems animated just fine. What did they fire the person that figured out how to do that?

This is what I have never understood - why am I playing to Alpha/Beta test a game? I don't understand why anyone would want to do that at what seems like full game prices.

So your comparison is very well written and very balanced (much to my surprise). I do puzzle at the number of times people comment on the systems size. Who cares that the Xbox is bigger? I mean it sits on a shelf, I don't take it anywhere. As long as a system fits in the entertainment center I really dont care.

But how will it ever change? The owners love Goodell because money. The fans hate him because hey is an unethical lying bastard who seems to be screwing up the game we love to watch. But the fans opinion doesnt count because we all tune and and buy team gear so the money keeps flowing.

Indeed. No argument there. Years of thinking the draft isn't important will do that to a team

Yeah but other QBs have gotten more production behind that same line. I don't think it is all on the line. They arent good - granted but if Colt McCoy can win 2 games in row behind them RG3 should be able to as well

"They need a game changer" - Snarky me says RGIII's play yesterday was a game changer alright - just for the Bucs. Seriously though I don't think the long term guy is currently on the roster. I thought coming into the year a healthy RGIII would be it - but he seems to be getting worse not better.

I think if you take Jackson, Garcon, Roberts. Jordon Reed and Niles Paul at TE and Morris and Helu you have a pretty damn good set of skill players. At least in the upper half of the league.

While I agree with you on Colt and his long term prognosis - I don't know that he isn't the best QB option the Redskins have on the roster. Cousins looks pretty good - until he decides to throw like 3 interceptions in 5 pass attempts. RGIII cant read defenses, cant see the open guys and hold the ball way to long.
