Rolling Stone should really just stick to investigating rape cases music.

Woah, woah, woah. You're burying the lead there! Hayden "The Chosen One" Christensen is finally returning in what I'm sure will be a major box office smash? About time!

No, it means that I'm interested in them. How does the concept of value of time apply to that?

That's the experience if you're an average-looking dude with no connections trying to get into whatever happens to be the hottest club of that particular week. However, if you know someone, are good looking and/or female, or are willing to grease some palms, then getting into the hottest club du jour is much less…

My time is more valuable than hers to me the same as her time is more valuable than mine to her. The difference is that the vast majority of women do not have the confidence to walk up to a guy for fear of rejection, where as men have to suck it up or they get left behind.

My favorite is the guy who's too drunk to get his shit together so he says hi and just stands there leering from 2 feet away, gently swaying in the non-existent breeze.

Agreed, Polygon reads like a shitty tabloid.

I'd rather Polygon disappears than Joystiq. There are always nice reads at Joystiq. Sad day.

Arguably AR is cooler and significantly more usable than VR.

People hate EA, Origin is EA.

People hated Steam when it came out, Origin is like Steam.


I think I bandwagon hated it for a bit (mainly because FUCK another thing to install and put my CC onto?) but now I don't care and harvest it for free games and exclusives.

Good way to deflect the question.

I don't understand the hate on Origin. Someone please explain.

Please, add this to #KotakuCore next time. I almost missed this. :\ Thanks!

Wait, hold the phone: the sets and vehicles are physical? Man, I was excited already, but fuck, this is gonna be FAB.
