"Here is the new trailer." Um. Where? Nowhere on the linked article, nor in any of the article's links, does the trailer appear. (And yes, I turned off my various plugins to double-check.)

I think a lot of people have said this by now, but I think it bears repeating. The iconic visage of Mario and his supporting cast have lately moved more and more toward the cartoony, and the games' premises, setpieces, and basic ideas are similarly absurd. I'm not saying that it would be...

No, it makes perfect sense. Of course the theatre doesn't care about the critics' screening, the critics, quite likely, didn't pay. Given the option between spending time on the critics' screening or spending time on all the other paid movies going on at the same time, they're gonna spend...

Definitely like this format for trailer examination more than the text articles. I realize you can go into more detail without the time restriction, but it was really irritating to be bouncing back and forth between a trailer video and the trailer article.

Everyone fears their own vice (and yes, I got that from Burn Notice). So of course the people suing anything that even looks like a copycat are massive copycats themselves.

This is not news, this is an idiot. TheEscapist? Please stop feeding the idiots.

I've heard some interesting rumors about a B/U control deck using Heartless Summoning [http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=244678] to pump out Rune-Scarred Demons [http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=220130] and Phyrexian Metamorphs...

All hail King Torg! Looks cute and silly. I'll have to keep an eye on this. And yes Plugav, Kobolds Ate My Baby as fun as it sounds.

Yes, address would be nice. No page I could find has the address for the Escapist office; somewhat of a detriment if we want to send you crazy goodies like these. ("Contact Us" page only had details on submissions, and the support page is e-mail only.)

To be fair to the tournament nuts, that is precisely why they feel they "have" to ban so much stuff. Brawl has so much random shit that are all either "get me and win" or "avoid me or lose". I mean, it's still fun to play with that stuff enabled, but it ain't exactly balanced. But in any...

TF2 has proven that charging only for the base game and then making all later content completely free is a viable business model. (Mann Co. Store not withstanding; you don't ~have~ to spend money for the privileged to play with the new toys.)

I heard that the Meat Boy team is actually going to add Tofu Boy to the game. So... :awesomeface:

Dear TheEscapist Magazine, You guys usually do a pretty good job of bringing me all manor of nerdy, sciency, or just plain interesting news. The mass media didn't cover the cancellation of the Space Shuttle Program because they are idiots. You, TheEscapist, are neither mass media nor...

Only got Dabbler, but the quiz failed to take video-game obsession into account - a rather odd mistake given that this is the Escapist.

Consider that the classes you don't want a hat for are a third of the game. If you're okay with a 2/3 chance of not getting one of their hats and a 1/9 chance of a Medic hat, then go for it. Otherwise, relax and wait. Who knows, maybe a hat will drop in the meantime.
