My wife had a particularly trying day at work last week, and I wound up snagging this for her as a surprise gift before she got home (Steam version).

I can see where it wouldn’t be the type of game I would invest a great deal of time into, but she seems to be really enjoying it so far. She really goes in for exploring,…

That might have been the worst cut trailer I've ever seen. The only appealing element is that it was directed by the guy who did Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn which was pretty good.

Completely unrelated to this post but no, Gawker.com is shutting down. Univision has purchased all of Gawker’s assets (Gizmodo being part of that purchase) and has simply decided (not without reason) that the Gawker.com brand is irreparably connected to Gawker Media and cannot continue.

I hope this has been mentioned around here before, and I don’t expect anyone cares, but historically “man” was a gender-neutral term (back in the middle ages the prefixes wer- and wif- specified “male man” or “female man”). This has a legacy in our modern language in the same sort of way that words that came to us…

I love a good summer blockbuster as much as the next guy, but I have really been hankering for some, for lack of a better term, grown-up sci-fi for quite a while now. You know, Blade Runner, A.I., that sort of thing. Arrival looks intriguing and terrifying, based on ideas rather than set-pieces.

And that, boys and girls, is how Patricia's inbox got flooded with dickpics.

The last time I did that I ended up making $2000/hr working from home, maybe I should do it again!

“Why couldn’t he be a fish part on top and a dude part on the bottom?”

Man, this new Godzilla must be the most fat-shamed kaiju ever.

I don’t want to say “thunder thighs,” but the big G may want to ease off on the nuclear cheesecake.

Half these guys look like they've never ridden a bike. I thought it would’ve been a more Specialized group.

Nighttime minutes start at 11pm. Brutal.

Like this?

For real though, I’m mainly impressed with the attention to detail in giving that ham sandwich a clitoris.

This looks fantastic! Why didn’t anybody else come up with the idea that a cat as the protagonist can only make a game better? (I dare you, name a tripple A that wouldn’t be better with a cat hero. Far Cry? Cathero. Assassin’s Creed? Catsassin. This game looks like it’ll be real good.

I’m not like a chef or anything, but I use the hot rice for whatever I made, like maybe spicy eggplant.

Good advice. I overshoot it, too, every single time.

I want the Xbox brand to succeed. I really, truly do. But if you’re a PC gamer there is ZERO reason to buy an Xbox One.

Doom has such fantastic art direction that this feature is great.

The opening credits often left me wondering if Westeros was on a ring world, or a discworld or the ancient past or future. It never occurred to me that we could get an answer, until now.
