Do those 'smart people being wrong' include you?

Many of the Kurz's predictions have only come true because they are so vague, so general, and so adaptable to whatever actually happens, that it would be more likely for them not to have happened than to have happened. They are about as incredible as the millions of people in 1960 saying that 'robots would replace…

I have to say I absolutely hate when the execs try and dress 'cool' with some blazer/jeans combination. Honestly at this stage I would probably have more respect for someone who came on with full well-fitted suit and tie, with pocket square.

If you're a kid out there, and want to go into games- this is how you do it. Work hard at school, study Finance or Economics at a top 10 University/College, work in investment banking for a few years, get on a media investment team at the bank, and then transfer to an executive role at a big publisher. I guarantee…

Sounds like part of an elaborate joke that I don't get. No one actually believes that.

I imagine they signed the marketing deal a *long* time ago.

The problem is that they didn't want to make a 'jokey' game, which is fine since we have a ridiculous number of un-funny 'comedy' games out now (Saints Row, Borderlands etc..), but the reality is that a Stalinist shithole stuck in the 1950s is never going to take over the world. If we're picking Communist countries…

Where does it say Deep Silver in the article?

England FUCK YEAH?

It melted your card? Were you getting artifacting or high temps before or was it just *boom* one minute and it was gone? What card, and what game settings?

Depends where though. Places that were middle class a couple decades ago (our family has a few places (ie my relatives each own their own houses, not multiple ones) around Huntington/Deerfield (I think) and a smaller place called Oyster Bay Cove, and property prices have shot up to ridiculous levels there.

There was many millions (if not billions), a colossal amount of press coverage, and huge hype in the community being thrown around in the 80s and early 90s around VR as well. Just because people are paying money for it and it's fun for 20 minutes at a convention doesn't mean it's going to catch on/change gaming…

Sure there are crappy comic book stories, but if a studio *chooses* to greenlight a movie not just 'based on' a comic character but specifically following a specific series of comics containing a certain character (ie The Amazing Spider Man) then this would be expected in my opinion.

I can't believe we're now complaining that comic book movies are following comic book stories.

Why not though? If Furness is a good friend whom he admires and enjoys hanging out with, and if sexual attraction isn't relevant in the situation (if it's a bearding thing), then why bother marrying a model (who might quit and spill the beans anyway) as opposed to her.

RPS have become the ultimate SJWs recently. I think they actually *refused* to cover PAX because one of the owners said something vaguely mean about trans people or something.

I could make $10m a year in London and not justify buying a car. But in Cali public transport is shit and this guy drives around all day so I find his decision understandable.

But it's 1000x worse when it's on a persistent world MMO.

Blizzard has an incredibly small team for the money they make. WoW brings in around a billion dollars a year, but has only 160 ish developers I think.

Unrequited love is the 'technical' term though, one that existed for many years before the 'friendzone' was invented. And I agree with your point, that is exactly what it is ("I don't want to accept it" etc..) you are 100% correct on. But where the term 'friendzone' is different is that it blames the lack of a…
