It’s stately and comfortable, with a big beefy engine, but it also weighs more than my raggedy pickup with a maintenance bill that will likely match the initial price before it hits a similar mileage to mine. CP.

I live in a college town, and the number of kids trashing cars worth multiples of what I make in a year is too damn high. Just earlier this year in spring semester, I saw a girl in a single car accident. What did she do? Took a turn way too fast and too hard in a Land Rover and tipped the sucker clean on its side in…

Only in that they’re both inspired by the works of HP Lovecraft.

Console yourself by knowing you’re probably nowhere near as bitter as the people that waited patiently for almost a decade for a new UT, have it go into development as a cool F2P open development title, then get dropped like a sack of bricks for a game type and brand you have no love for.

The looks may be polarizing, but the level of care that went into that setup, hot damn.

I’m taking a break from my TV to get good and stuck in on a solo campaign for Massive Darkness. It’s like Diablo, if Diablo was a board game with lavishly produced minis and a fantastically rewarding loot system. But beyond that, it has a lot in common. Quests, epic adventure, growing a character over a campaign, the…

Transformed was probably my favorite kart racer since CTR back in the day, for pretty much all the reasons you mentioned. No disrespect to Mario Kart, but there’s a certain sense of vigor in Transformed that I haven’t seen in a long time.

It’s one of those things that becomes relevant when we discuss how our entertainment, the backbone of this site, gets made. This also isn’t just about the code monkeys and developers; it’s about the often underpaid, overworked QA testers that can end up crunching for 100-120 hours a week for months on end, living in…

Possibly not. The standard policy for most cashiers is if you suspect straw purchasing, refuse the sale. Like the article says, stings happen, and someone getting mad and having to go elsewhere for booze or smokes is a much smaller problem than the store being fined, the employee being fired, and the store possibly…

It might be the homeliest looking GTO, but that’s a lot of go under the hood with the correct number of pedals and right-wheel drive to match. for 6K this thing’s a solid bargain. The leather can be repaired for not too much extra cash.

Small correction, but that knife is not folding, it’s a fixed blade with sheath. As always, check your local laws on carrying knives before making purchases.

Exactly this. I voted NP because to someone, some BMW enthusiast, this car is their grail, and they will love it forever, and 12k is a perfectly reasonable price. It’s beautifully restored and accident free, so it’s worth that to somebody that loves this specific car.

I’m sad I missed this one, but my story wasn’t all that bad.

This is interesting and all, but what I’d like to know is if we can count on a nice Collector’s Edition with a resin statue or something. I’d settle for PVC, but, gimme something to put on my shelf.

It doesn’t need to make zombies interesting, it just needs to take advantage of the shambling hordes in a new or mechanically interesting way, like Dying Light did with the parkour and day/night mechanics. The idea of your exploration being heavily keyed to your bike, the swarms that are like puzzle bosses to be…

Be the change you want to see, I guess. If you’re a PoC and feel like you’re underrepresented in fan content, make some fan content that represents you. Thus you not only elevate the amount of content, but embolden other creators to follow suit. As far as the tools go, they’d be well off to officially petition…

How’s the old adage go? “Lies, damned lies, and statistics?” Hell, my STAT 101 course’s required reading was literally called “How to Lie with Statistics”.

I wonder if there’s anything in the ToS to protect them from legal backlash if people are submitting copyrighted material or exposing the intended audience to illicit materials? Like, I know a lot of online only games get to dodge the ESRB/PEGI ratings, but that’s not going to make a lot of difference to outraged…

I mean, why would they? They get useful idiots to crank out shop merch for them for free, items they’d normally have to pay a designer to implement, and I presume you can buy the in-game currency, so they’ve manufactured a machine that only creates profit and controversy which will in turn drive profit! It’s…

It is. Binding of Isaac style dungeon generation with upgrade tracks for weapons and an active shop management component. I really liked it, despite some less-than-ideal design decisions(the upgrade track for elemental weapons is basically there to offer the illusion of choice while being less effective at raw damage…
