I beat The Witness! … I think. I got to the end of the game, but apparently have two lasers I didn't activate. I doubt they'll change the ending, especially since I barely have any of the environmental puzzles solved, but I still want to finish them before I put the whole thing to rest.

When I bought my PS4, I was kind of excited to be able to play Disgaea games again, but I don't know if I have the hours of my life to sacrifice to them anymore. Most of my high school years were spent in that godforsaken Item World.

As I continue to chip away at The Witness, I bought Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4, because sometimes I just want to turn my brain off and watch ninjas blow each other up.

Aw, lame, I didn't know they did that. I actually think the live version is a lot of fun, but now I'm glad I have the original still saved on an old iPod.

That's also good advice! Which I will be sure to fail to take into account when it's 2AM and I refuse to quit until I solve just one more puzzle.

I love Grim Fandango, but I've played it twice and had to seek outside help both times to figure out you have to use the hole punch on the playing cards.

I would have walked away and gone somewhere else, since that's every reviewer has suggested doing whenever you get stuck. But it was the part in the swamp that you cross over to on the excruciatingly slow moving platform, and you're kind of stuck there until you figure out how to get back.

I already looked up solutions to two puzzles I spent hours trying to figure out last night, and have spent the time since wracked with guilt. I'm loving the game so far, but it can be pretty a stress-inducing experience.

Great, all Trevor Noah needs is a national tragedy that irrevocably scars the country and he's golden!

I didn't mind too much because I was one of the people just wanting Malcolm Tucker in space, but they definitely struck a better balance last season.

Capaldi is not allowed to stop being the Doctor. I know there's a problem in old white guys getting the role, but he's a really good old white guy. Like, the best.

Oh, no, I'm not arguing against this. I just think it's funny that it was made for the stage, but is so popular and inaccessible everyone just wants it to be a movie or television special, myself included.

Stupid live theater requiring audiences to attend a theater live. Let me consume everything on my idiot box, damn it!

I just started listening to The Flop House, and my first thought was how excited and immediately crushed by this news those guys must have been.

I love the band and my reaction to the news was genuine excitement, so I have no clue. The only people I can see being upset was anyone who went to the concert expressly so they can tell everyone they were at the last LCD Soundsystem show ever.

I don't understand why there's any backlash. I mean, at least let them put out a new album you can say is shit compared to their old stuff before you start getting upset.

I saw Star Wars and loved it a lot more than I thought I would. Yeah, the plot is a rehash of the first movie, but I thought it hit all the emotional beats extremely well, and all the new characters were likable. Plus, it has Oscar Isaac as an ace X-wing pilot, so what more do you need?

That's what has me really worried about next season. If they're promoting it with "A bunch of people almost die!" then it must not be too exciting gameplay-wise.

From the way Jeff was practically salivating when Joe went down in the immunity challenge, it seems like that's what they've been building towards.

I'm so excited for next season's Survivor: Brains vs Brawn vs Beauty vs The Frailty of the Human Body.
