    Shadowrun returns (on kickstarter)

    I meant to back this project but missed the deadline. Frustrates me seeing footage come out that looks so good. These Kickstarter projects have been looking real solid lately. It will be interesting to see if they can deliver that quality in their actual release.

    Lord British Presents: Shroud of the Avatar

    Hrmm, it's a lot pricier than past kickstarters. Even the 30 dollar digital copy is limited. While the game sounds interesting, I worry that his ambition is going to get the best of him.

    North Korea Invades the United States

    I don't know what Dennis Rodman said during his visit to North Korea but it seems to have riled up Kim Jung Un like no other.

    inXile funding Torment

    Yea Crni, that is my fear with a lot of these. I know the board games a lot of my coworkers backed on kickstarter have been disappointments. But a lot of that might just be the astronomical expectations people have with the months of anticipation. Overall, this kickstarter is going...

    inXile funding Torment

    I backed it. It's impressive how fast it's growing. I thought there would be some backlash because, as Jebus has highlighted, they want more money without having delivered any products yet. Still, their reasoning for it makes sense. And it's Torment. How can you say no?

    Playstation 4 Announced, Diablo 3 and more coming

    Nice writeup Sea. I felt the same way watching the Killzone demo, but chalked it up to the fact that I was watching a seedy leaked video. It would be nice to see something that broke genre boundaries or brought something truly revolutionary to a genre, rather than seeing the same game with a...

    Mad Max: Fury Road

    So to understand this right, they've finished filming, and their cast includes Charlize Theron and Tom Hardy. Yet there are still few details about the actual movie and IMDB has it set for 2014. Is it normal for movies to have so little known around them? I would think with decent names in the...

    Playstation 4 Announced, Diablo 3 and more coming

    Sony held a conference today where they announced their plans for Playstation 4. It seemed to have quite a few reveals for a non-E3/Major conference event. Spec-wise: x86 CPU, enhanced PC GPU confirmed, 8GB OF UNIFIED RAM A new Killzone, new Infamous. Diablo 3 was announced to be ported...

    Wasteland 2 interview, HD video, F3/NV OSTs on iTunes

    I think the problem is that even within their backers, there's such a wide range of opinions that you ultimately CANT satisfy everyone. I'm sure there are a few things that people could spot that would ultimately improve the gameplay, but there is that concern of trying to appease too many...

    Wasteland 2 interview, HD video, F3/NV OSTs on iTunes

    I like their development process. None, you have more experience with the gaming industry - how does that compare to standard companies? I would imagine most places, that middle step is a much greater portion of the process than here. Interesting to see InXile making that last step so...

    The Ultimate Movie Thread of Ultimate Destiny

    No love for Argo from you guys? Of the best picture nominees I've seen Les Mis, Argo and Silver Lining Playbook. Probably would put them Argo > Les Mis > Silver Lining Did you not see/like Seven Psychopaths Dammit Boy? Didn't see it on your list and it was pretty solid in the past...

    Pope Resigns, World Cares (Not)

    I don't follow Christian politics much but that Christian Sophoeborn sounds like the only realist in the bunch.

    Pope Resigns, World Cares (Not)

    Is his advanced age really that much of an abberation from other popes? It seems like a false reason considering every other pope has died while holding the position.

    Wasteland 2 first look video released, update

    I'll third SubHuman's feedback. The good news is this is developed with the community right? So if we post the feedback where they can see it, there's a chance they'll take it to heart. Overall, the footage looked nice though it certainly was a lot of brown and gray. I guess with the...

    Wasteland 2 tidbits, video likely next week

    I'm excited to see how the video turns out. I contributed to Wasteland 2 but got tired of all the emails and kind of blocked out its progress. Also, is there any good background on that crowdsourcing models thing? The linked post just said that they were going through them, but didn't give...

    Massive gog sale

    I love Gog and it will be interesting to see how much I buy. What's cool about the 75% off daily deals is that they work even if you already own some of the games in the bundle. So in my case, I own Theme Hospital and Dungeon Keeper 2, so it removes those games from the bundle but keeps the...

    2012 American Election (Presidential and otherwise)

    Can you break that down? I've found 12% in a few places when you factor in all forms of taxes, but it's still listed as less than some other states. http://taxfoundation.org/state-tax-climate/connecticut Reports it as 3rd nationally, while the business tax index lists connecticut as 40th...

    2012 American Election (Presidential and otherwise)

    Wait what? When did connecticut get the highest tax rates? I live there too and we're lower than neighboring states. New York has a high bracket of 8.97%, New Jersey has a high of 8.97%. That's not even getting into California.

    Shaker: Old School RPG Kickstarter

    You know, I'd be perfectly happy if they could just get Wizardry 8 on Steam or GoG so I could buy that game. Nevertheless, I'm intrigued by this one and will likely back it if it gets closer to its goal.
