Yeah, he's going for easy jabs. Truth is, unlike when he was a kid, being into videogames is the rule rather than the exception. When he was a teen, there were probably a small amount of kids really into video games (because they were generally horrible, think "Atari" and "Intellivision"). People owned the systems…

there is nothing remotely historically accurate in these games. They could literally add a second character model, record all the dialogue with a female v/o artist, and add an either/or option. Use the same animation and script (yeah, some of the pronouns will be messed up, but who cares - or have an intern record…

My 13 year old daughter prefers to play as a girl/women when given the choice. In fact, she's starting to show less interest in games, because so few of them have that choice. In other words, they're possibly losing her as a customer.

I love the effort of these guys. But looking at this, I could tell he was like "what's the point of this - why am I even doing this?"

How are Halo and Forza fans losers? Halo fans just got access to the best versions of all four games, for 15 bucks each. Plus the re-invigoration of that sweet Halo multiplayer.

I agree - it was a well run event. One of the interesting things that gets ignored is that, this whole time that XB1 has been the whipping boy, it's actually been building a strong, competitive library.

No, they were "like Steam" and developer-friendly. Thanks to Sony forcing their hand, we'll likely continue AAA studio layoffs, and sequels and remakes, because risky AAA games which take time to build an audience are not worth making when users can just wait for the used copies.

Except Oculus. I'd easily spend $300 on one + $100 for a new comfy office chair to spin around in.

My concern is that removal would take a bathtub full of goo gone, the fumes of which would constitute a bioterror attack.

And don't forget wacko conspiracy theorists:

From a criminal justice standpoint, evidence of force is a smoking gun in a case like this. It's not *just* that won't take it seriously otherwise (though it's part of it, like you said), it's also that it's that much harder harder to prosecute.

For the point I was attempting to make, it doesn't matter whether it's one attacker raping 100 girls, or a hundred raping one each. And it doesn't matter the amount of alcohol or relative intoxication of victim and attacker (though relative sobriety of attacker, and a debilitating BAC on the victim is considered…

The problem is that the kind of assaults that tend to happen on campus usually involved drunk people behind closed doors. He says "consensual"; she says "Nope". No witnesses, no evidence proving "force". So they're often dead end cases, because incredibly difficult to convict beyond a reasonable doubt. Uni's don't…

They messed up on this. Not by forcing the Kinect onto every console. I mean, Nintendo forced its motion controls onto every Wii and no one complained. The problem is that they gave people NOTHING to use it with, gamewise, at launch. From all accounts Kinect 2.0 is much better: more accurate, less latency : than…

I agree with that. I'm only saying that when I heard it my first thought was "I don't think he meant to say exactly that."

I'll forward my award to its rightful owner: Ms Beusman. But thanks!

Perfect! And instead of dancing, they could sit in chairs facing each other in the middle of the dancefloor, with daughter glaring unblinkingly, and daddy comically pulling at his shirtcollar.

I can only hope that my daughter is weird and awesome enough to pick Come to Daddy* by Aphex Twin for her wedding.

Incidental ass-touching is expected, especially since your butt will be the lowest part of the "surf". One have to go out of one's way to get at the other bits, so any grabbing there is intentional and molestational.

I think he misspoke. The normal thing is "your momma would be ashamed of you" He just messed it up.
