Agreed. They should just stream EVO tournies.

It's the digitization of the worst parts of American office culture. I fucking hate it but I made one because so many people asked me to add them so I guessed it must be a thing.

I have fond memories of taking a business trip with my mom to a golf resort in 1998 on the condition that she had to sit through a time share pitch, which she also took me to. At the end she walked out and feigned indignation that they would try to cheat her. It was pretty damn funny in retrospect.

We may never know.

The original meaning of the "dubdubdub" is lost to the mists of time, I'm afraid.

Meh. It was pretty funny to me, at least, regardless of any quantifiable real world effect. Of course the headline is gonna be clickbaity.

It does seem really weird to me. " I absolutely can not trust my spouse to use the Internet unsupervised!"

I'm pretty sure that's exactly what Kojima did any time someone at Konami asked him why his game was taking so long and cost so much.

"Well, honey, you see, virus photosynthesis nanomachines world peace. Now don't you feel silly?"

I guess I feel OK with having just put on Drew Scanlon's playthrough in the background while I did some work this summer. I didn't even notice that. Loved the ending, though.

Silent Hills is our collective phantom pain.

I have seen it, but haven't actually gotten that far myself yet. It does not come across well, to say the least.

Yeah, it's absolutely a glaring flaw. For me it wasn't enough to significantly detract from the overall experience, but Kojima's inability to move out of a 13 year old's view of the female body has always been a huge issue that can definitely fuck up the tone of the grandiose stories he aspires to tell.

And that really sucks because I love Quiet as a character and a buddy. I love the conceit but hate the execution, basically.

Quiet's a total bro, basically.

Sorry, I should have linked to the article and not their website. They are actually operating in Syria and Iraq. They claim to have trained the Nineveh Plains Unit, for example. The founder is a documentary film maker who wound up as a POW during the Lybian civil war and started the organization after his friends were…

So I read about this organization in Vice a few days ago and everything from the name (which I realize is actually taken from the American Revolutionary War) to the group's founding and purpose (a private army with no allegiance to any nation founded after the dude's friends were killed) was too good not to draw a…

Suneeku? Suneeeku?! SUNEEEEEEEEEKU?!? *ring ring*

For a really long time Ocelot was my favorite character (it's probably good to note that I played MGS when it came out and barely got through 3, and have never played 2 or 4), but Quiet's silent uber badassery has edged her to the top despite her ridiculous outfit. The sniper battle with her was just perfect and I…

It's interesting to consider this on the day that moot sold/gave 4chan to the founder of 2channel.
