Nope. Star Wars is still awesome.

You need a gold account to do anything worthwhile on xbox live.

To me he'll always be "The guy that wore a pimp suit to E3."

Alright Ubi, this is the kind of AC DLC I can get behind. Not just more stupid maps or game modes, this is cool. Sounds like an old-school PC expansion. I was going to wait for the inevitable AC3 price drop in a few months, but I may grab the season pass ASAP. I know I'll want to play this.

I've found the negative reaction to the setting pretty funny. A lot of the response was anti-"Hoo RAH AMUUURRRRIIICCAAA". I mean, the company is Canadian and has staff members from across the spectrum. I never really understood where they got this.

You know, even with all the "horrible" reviews the game is getting, I still want to try it out. I've got a Bbuy rewards giftcard coming soon. There's a good chance of a price-drop at least at the store level for the holidays. I'm going to hopefully combine the 2 together and grab this.

This is really bizarre. This is incredibly incredibly late notice, so something makes me think this is something bad. Or something really weird. I just can't see it being something incredible or shocking like Smash Bros U footage or something crazy. I hope everything is all right.

If I didn't have a massive backlog, I would jump on PS+ almost immediately. Seriously, I do not need to be adding more games to my log. I'm just starting Borderlands with a friend right now. The original, not #2. Add to that Xenoblade and The Last Story and those are only the games at the top of my list right…

I appreciate the Kotaku attempt to rule out number scores for games. I love that you allow each editor to choose their own style of review, while keeping the main sidebar as the only real constant.

Cooking skills are never a bad thing. In fact, I find cooking with my girlfriend to be incredibly fun! I've tried a bunch of cool recipes recently. My favorite that we made was breakfast muffins. With the base made out of pancake, the filling an egg, and then the "top" a piece of bacon wrapped around said egg. It…

So, after looking at the headphones list, those are all over the ear phones. Those are great for most times, but when I need to just put one earbud in or don't want to heave big headphones around, I need some earbuds. Any advice on the best/cost-effective earbuds?

I always enjoy Pachter. He can be so on the ball and then so incredibly wrong.

I seriously considered pre-ordering a second to recoup my cost. Then I remembered I'm a gamer first, not an asshole, and I didn't.

That's actually a really nice deal. Way to game the system there, my friend!

Yup, I just got the same word from my Gamestop as well. This store was also estimating that they will run out of the normal edition tomorrow. Get your orders in boys and girls! #tips

True. A new home console launch is always met with shortages. I feel like this will be no different, especially launching pre-gift giving season.

You know, the way all of the marketing footage has played out, and specifically with that line that Connor, "Always fights on the side of good" makes me think we'll be fighting against the revolutionaries at some point.

ACII is by far the best in the series. The other 2 added some superfluous stuff, but II was really really polished. It was a full character arc and it was incredibly satisfying.

The sensor bar thing makes complete sense to me. Japanese are much more inclined to save things and buy products that last. The assumption that they will still have their Wii peripherals and accessories seems like a given, at least culturally.

My thoughts exactly. It wouldn't be a stand alone purchase, but as part of that bundle, it's definitely worth it.
