Ultimately though, this is only relevant to the tiny minority of people who read comics. The Marvel characters *most* people think of are the ones in the movies themselves.

As a hardcore Bioware fan, Inquisition was *such* a disappointment. Bioware games used to be the opposite of Bethesda- instead of 400 hours of shitty fetch quests and grind, there would be 40 hours of fun, engaging, story-driven gameplay. With Inquisition, the meat of Bioware's games (narrative, companions, choice)…

Yeah, that's it :)

An absolutely stunning and beautiful game indeed. I hope it does well.

Why?

Amalur was an open world RPG (same genre as Skyrim, Fallout, Two Worlds etc..) that released 3 months after Skyrim. It is definitely not in the cinematic RPG category, which is about games focused around choice and consequence etc..

What I would do if I had a one-hit wonder like this making billions of dollars is use the money to buy a few console/PC studios and diversify my portfolio. Buy Obsidian, maybe a publisher like Paradox, perhaps CDProjekt too. That way when the mobile boom crashes, you still have long term revenue sources.

I think success in games development is very much a question of which genre you want to participate in. How many shitty arena shooters, MOBAs, FPS' and so on do we get today? A ton. On the other hand, cinematic RPGs (Witcher, Mass Effect, Deus Ex etc..) are a relatively small genre with a high hit ratio- in fact…

Isn't the whole point of the anti- 'slut shaming' to change what people think about others who do certain things? I'm all for letting people do whatever they want and then judging them mercilessly for it, but that doesn't seem to be what this is about.

People can display the 'assets' they want, BUT it's up to Twitch whether they want to allow it on their site. Personally, I think they should either allow all clothing and draw the line at actual nudity, or alternatively demand the boxes with the streamer's face in them be from the shoulders up.

I know. Despite being ABC's clear and blatant attempt to transfer Castle's audience to a new (and extremely similar) show before it ends this/next year, I really started to love it.

I'm so sad Selfie got cancelled. ABC's shitty branding killed it as usual.

Jeff do you consider yourself more of a journalist or an entertainer? Do you think there is room for serious, long-form journalism in gaming?

I find this funny. I've always had no problems talking to people professionally, networking, dealing with coworkers, giving speeches and presentations etc... But casual conversation, parties and so on scare the life out of me.

It's a German map.

If gay people kept knocking on my door saying "bro have you tried cock, I really think you should, here, take this leaflet about becoming gay" and posting articles on Gawker about why all mean should try going gay and how men are so much better than women in bed, THEN it would be the same.

The only way to eliminate piracy permanently is to use an OnLive/Gaikai style service in which the games never actually touch the user's PC. As sad as it is, that is probably the future.

I feel 'finance bros' is a bit like 'brogrammer' though- it refers to a specific type of person within that field. Like there are non bro finance guys and non bro programmers, and both are in abundance at Harvard and Yale.

Harvard's future hedge funders beat Yale's future investment bankers.
