As a side note, why does it look like you're reviewing this on a TV you found in a dumpster in Mogadishu?

@Evilsoda: Minor aside related to that: I also have problems when people call other potential star systems "solar" systems. No. There is only one, and it's ours. To use your reference, if there were bodies orbiting Alpha Centauri, that would not be a solar system, it would be the Alpha Centauri system. Or some…

Hey everyone being a smartass: the title of the article says this is a reason to jailbreak your iPad, with "your" in this sense implying you already have one. It's not saying that this is a reason to buy an iPad. If you buy an iPad purely for this unofficial functionality, then something is wrong. But if you have…

@Michael Dukakis: I thought commenting on #7 was a safe bet, and I had something drafted up but I didn't submit because I was afraid I'd get banned for life. The comment still belongs in the hall though.

@PixelPenumbra: Yeah Tyson's is just a 24/7 mess of nastiness. You have my sympathies for having to go there everyday. I work at a client site but my company's main building is off Greensboro across from Tyson's II...I don't have to go there often but when I do it's a sad, sad day.

@PwnCakes193: Tyson's Corner is a death trap. Basically you have to avoid it completely from 3pm to 8pm or else you'll essentially be completely trapped. There are shortcuts around everywhere else around here, but Tyson's is a clusterfuck no matter how you cut it.

Woah! I pretty much came close to crapping my pants when I saw my alma mater here on Kotaku! First the Final Four my Senior year, and now this. For those of you interested, it's really an amazing school with top-notch facilities and faculty. It's in a great location in Northern VA right outside DC, and the school…

@krishna830: I know, I realized this after. As if the sexual tension there wasn't bad enough!

@krishna830: It is a great song, and was stuck in my head all day at work. My boss asked me to do something and I told her I'd be her sledgehammer, and she just looked at me.

@Hirashin: Um...HOW did this not make it in? This displays actual skill, and not some half-assed cut and paste job or something that's so dull and uninspired it makes me feel sleepy.

@Viic Viiper: Hmmm, an interesting counter argument. I must take time to digest this. However, you are right in stating that the Puritan Cat (or shall I say...Purrrrritan Cat, teehee) would be the best is certainly correct. However, that cat does not exist. The gypsy witch that sold me the Reebok dufflebag full of…

@Viic Viiper: There's kind of a logic flaw in that statement though, isn't there? I mean, out of any number of items with varying degrees of quality, one of them will always be "the best" when compared to the others. Like if I have 5 cats, and 4 of them are dead, and the last one has cat-AIDS, he's still the best…

@Jnas: 8 is one of the most polarizing entries in the entire series. People either loved the hell out of it or wanted it to burn. If you're enjoying it though, by all means finish it up then move on.

@XeroTrinity: Not on your PSP you haven't, which is what this would allow.

@BruzeWayne: Life After People is the first thing I thought of when I saw these screenshots too. That show is awesome, in a depressing "ultimately-everything-man-has-created-will-go-away-in-a-few-thousand-years" kind of way.

Any word yet on Xenogears hitting the NA or European PSN? It's already on the Japanese one, and if they're talking about FFIX then I mean come on, it can't be far behind.

@Michael Dukakis: Oh stop being so emu.

@spannu: True, their asshole factor is strong regardless of how they spend their free time. But incidents like that are the most blatant examples of shittiness I've seen on the commute.

***I posted this is in #speakup earlier cause I thought I'd be in bed by Off-Topic O'clock, but FFXIII had other ideas. Hope someone enjoys***
