Have you ever watched the extended editions? Especially of the first one? It's almost surreal. There's an entire song and dance routine at goblin town that made me seriously wonder what movie I was watching. Then you remember that it probably took millions of dollars to film that sequence, and...

Maybe it's just because I know what it is, but I hear it way too often and it's just an instantaneous drop of all immersion in the film. It feels less like part of the film in question and more like it's someone's obnoxious ringtone went off in the audience and covered whatever audio was...

I don't know a lot about copywrite law, but that seems a little weird. Movies have been out for decades and as far as I know don't need to keep paying for songs. Are videogames different, or have they just not been able to enforce it until now? Are old movies secretly illegal? Why haven't other...

Is skyrim really a game to hold up here? Basically everything is in a cave full of viking zombies, the location of which is marked on your magic GPS by a single line of dialogue from an NPC. If a citizen of skyrim so much as loses their purse, you can bet it's somehow going to end up in a cave...

I've only played Far Cry 4 from that list, and it was exactly what I expected (namely, Far Cry 3,) so I can't really judge too much. Still, of the games listed, Watch_Dogs was the game I was most excited about before it released, and then just kind of decided after release that maybe it...

TIL: I should have gone to college in Britain. If you only know 60% of how to do something, I wouldn't say you've learned how to do it. It may mean I have to re-take a few courses, but I'm glad people aren't going into the field only knowing 60% of how to be a doctor or an engineer. As...

Disappointed that there isn't somehow a cat item in the game now. I know they can't exactly add functionally different items every update or the gameplay would be a clusterfuck, but the cosmetics they added just... well... seem a lot like ones that are already in the game, most of them. And how...

I haven't played GTAV, so I don't know if there are any female criminal characters in it, but are we just going to ignore all the female criminals in GTA4, GTA:SA, and... um... basically every other GTA game? How about the raiders in Fallout 3? That one who tries to murder you for...

If the writing is good, the character will have some clear motivation that requires them to face the spooky scary stuff. Maybe they're stuck in with it and have to accomplish something before they can go. Maybe there's some reason that they sought out the spooky scary to begin with. Either...

So is this their new marketing pitch? "Buy our game or the franchise gets it?" It's certainly an interesting tactic. They know people are suspicious of Sims 4's quality, so they're trying to get people to buy it anyways by shutting down any notion of "just hoping the next one's better." If you...

The joke is "why didn't the ghost go to the party." Your way doesn't make sense. A skeleton is part of a body.

... I was really expecting this to be one of those "misleading title" threads. Not sure what it would be about, but my expectation was roughly anything than actually being this. Well, I'm a furry, which is something I'm a little surprised hasn't come up in this thread more. Most of my...

Boxers Boxer briefs look just about as silly as briefs to me. For the people who are asking why not just go commando: I can tell you're not circumcised, or else you don't wear jeans.

>Female character doesn't literally commit genocide, murdering everyone including the children she was doing this all to protect in the first place. >She's not "strong" enough of a character, is clearly just portraying women as weak. There you have it folks. Until all female characters are...

Unless for some reason abandoned shopping carts and boosted bicycles are for some reason declared a vital resource, I think I'll be fine. My city is far enough from anything worth nuking that even a Tsar bomb wouldn't hit me with any great effect. Jesus christ I may never be happy again. I...
