The Nice Guys: Pretty good little “disco-noir” movie with some good physical comedy and a little absurdism thrown in as well. It feels a little weird calling it a period piece, but set in the 70's (late 70's, to be sure) would make it qualify.

Richard Adams also died Christmas Eve. It was just announced.

I know that I’d probably grab a knife and fork, but you know what, don’t care. It’s a tower of juicy tasty beef and I will consume it. Because it does look tasty.

I just have to ask: has anybody tried making a life size wombat plushie? Because I gotta tell you, just from that pic, I can’t think of a single kid who wouldn’t want one. It practically screams, “I am a fuzzy friend you can hug to pieces.”

Since I didn’t pick up a Vita, I can’t get the second and third games. I keep hoping that they’ll be ported over to PC via Steam, which seems to be the trend for Vita titles these days.

Fell afoul of the “changed” planet thing myself. I’m kinda pissed about it. The one planet in the star system I’ve been at for the last few months that got changed was also the one that was the least hostile. It was a nice wintery world with extreme cold from time to time, but I was OK with that. Now, it’s a slightly…

Too soon, man. I loved the hell out of Sleeping Dogs when it came out for the PS3, had no problem buying it for PS4. This is salt in an open wound.

Were they able to make their free throws?

Gandhi consistently pisses me off every time I play against him. I get promises he won’t settle near me, two turns later, brand new Indian city. I get promises he won’t try to convert my cities, and quel surprise, missionary door knockers and apostles freaking everywhere. But if I declare war on him for being a lying…

No. Been playing as Norway and England most recently.

Now that you mention it, I keep getting stuck in near-Arctic locations over and over again. Haven’t seen a single rainforest hex since I started.

I spent a few hours last night playing (just kinda tired of Festival of The Lost), slowly raising gear score. Haven’t picked up the Underground DLC. Ran the daily missions on World Tier 3. I’m not real sure what to make of it. Enemies still feel like bullet sponges, but perversely the weapons don’t feel like they hit…

Picked this up as a PS+ freebie. The visual style was pretty cool, but there was hardly any meat to it. You had to rely on other people showing up and hope they knew what they were doing.

I’ve seen the episodes so far, and while I’m seeing the parallels they’re trying to draw, it’s vaguely clumsy to me. Having head canon about various NPCs is cool and all, but it’s always a more detailed story (and thus, more interesting to us) because we’ve imbued those characters with our own choice of personality…

That was the episode my brother started watching the series, and pretty sure it was the point where he stopped watching.

I can think of a few that would be good.

It’s the most brutal thing ever! It’s not like regular hate! It’s so much... more black! If she were a street gang, I’d fuckin’ go to war with her with bottles and chains! But this is different! There’s nothing I can do! — “Metalocalypse”

I suppose the real question is whether they would set it during the Dollar Flu outbreak or afterward. A movie covering the First Wave agents and their ultimate failure would be pretty nifty, if it was well written, acted, shot, cut, and scored.

Odd bit of timing on this one. I just finished a “help me! help me!” quest for a settlement reporting it was under attack. I fast travel there, screen fades in from the transition, and HOLY SHIT, SETTLERS ARE SHOOTING AT ME!

True story: I ran into a similar situation writing the review for Diablo III when it first came out for PC. The Armchair Empire used a scoring system, the scores we reported did go up on Metacritic at the time, and there was a giant shitstorm in the comments section after the review went up. Far as I know, it’s still…
