    Inferno - Are We Finally Done With Dan Brown?

    LOL. It's likely you misunderstand me; and to be fair, I was being obtuse. I'm not defending the book nor the movie. Though I do think it probably deserves more like a 3/5 for being a fairly run of the mill action thriller, with a slightly more fun/interesting background subject matter. My...

    8 Single-Player Games That Deserve Multi-Player

    Mad Max would've benefitted from the option for 4-player co-op. I really enjoy both the hand-to-hand brawling, and the vehicle fights in that game, and both aspects would lend themselves nicely to playing with a few friends if the enemies' difficulty and quantities were ramped up.

    The Last Thing We Need is Developers Policing Mods

    Kind of a pointless article. You don't even mention the crux of the situation. Paradox wasn't policing mods, they were policing THEIR own Steam Workshop portal. The ability of the mod maker to make and post the mod ANYWHERE else were not affected. Nor was that ever Paradox's intent.

    8 Awesome Things New Gamers Will Never Get to Experience

    Well... you just described seven things that I'm glad are gone, or at best, don't care at all about; and then went on to glorify some of them into things they never were for me. I'm 41, for what it's worth. ARCADES though. I certainly do miss those.

    8 Games that Would be Awesome in a Different Genre

    An FPS in the XCOM universe would be great, but we will never get one because every time the idea is mentioned fans flip-the-F-out. The Bureau was originally intended as an FPS, but they got so scared at the negative reaction to it's announcement that they pulled it and ended up converting it...

    5 Ways J.J. Abrams Could Ruin Star Wars

    Dude?!! Really? There's nothing J.J. Abrams could do that could ruin STAR WARS worse than Lucas himself has done over the the last three movies. Not to mention nearly the entire collection of awful expanded universe novels. That said, I would dearly love to see a GOOD writer/director get a...

    Homestar Runner To Return Later This Year, Co-Creator Confirms

    > The world has changed a lot since the series went dark four years ago, and even more so since it first launched in 2000. > Will Strong Bad check his twitter account? Will the lappy be replaced with a tablet? Ummm... you may have missed the point on that one. (: It'll be more like Strong...

    Complaints Lead to Changes in FX's The Strain Billboards

    Hmmm, i wonder what people would think in countries where common medical reality includes worm parasites very similar to that. It would probably seem like some sort of Public Service Announcement.

    Indiana Jones' Journal Mystery Disappointingly Solved

    WTF? Why would anyone be disappointed by this turn of events. It seems like a pretty cool chain of happenstance events. It would've been disappointing if it'd turned out to be some sort of successful attempt to fool a university into providing free marketing for a re-release of Crystal Skull...

    Escape to the Movies: Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides

    Captain Jack's "charm" was worn off halfway through the first movie.

    Minecraft Multiplayer Brought Down by DDoS Attack

    For those that are unclear on some of the details (appologies if any of this has already been pointed out.) -- The game is in ALPHA, and you pay 15 bucks for it, AND IT IS ALREADY MORE FUN THAN MOST FULL-PRICE COMMERCIAL RELEASES... which is why of hundreds of thousands of people are willing...

    Red Dead Revival?

    Bob, you stated clearly that this wasn't a complete list, nor a "best of". So fine, we could niggle all day about our favorite movies that should have been on there, but that misses the point. It was a quick and dirty list to get people going on some key movies. I have one complaint though...

    Visceral Promises Better PC Controls in Dead Space 2

    PC controls would have been fine--all keys were rebindable, and i was able to set them up very comfortably for myself, and i use quite an odd layout compared to most PC gamers. THE PROBLEM was MOUSE SPEED and RESPONSIVENESS. It took several swishes to get turned around even with "mouse...

    The Hard Problem: The New Concurrency

    Jeeeze... no mention of either Planetside or World War II Online:Battleground Europe? Both of these games give your definition of proximal concurrency, and importance you ascribe to it a challenge. And both of these games are relatively unsung pioneers in the MMO genre. Let's ignore, for this...
