Haven't these hackers ever heard of the Streisand effect? I had absolutely no interest in seeing this movie, but now I want to know what all the hubbub is about.

"it's mom..." I can only hope to embarrass my kids, on that level, at some point in their lives.

The fact that 98% who tried wanted to buy the Morpheus is amazing.

When footage of the Steam version popped up in the trailer, my eyes rolled so hard that I think Atlantis rose from the depths of the sea and then sank again.
