Too many episodes of this series do not deserve "...and that's the Big Picture" at the end. Because it isn't. This has became increasingly alike an appendix for the other show rather than an exploration of macro issues surrounding pop culture it set out to be.

Oh, thank god! We finally get to play as a member of an elite squad!

Please fix the volume levels, the spoken/ad parts were much quieter than the effects.

I'm (female) commander Shepard and Mass Effect 4 is my least favourite idea on the Citadel.

Oh snap, and this is after Major Nelson asked "Can Steam do that?". Well... yes... it will be soon, because Steam is a platform that is easily upgradeable. Now if they added a way to trade-in games that we absolutely hate (or a 1-2h return shitty product window after first launch) or don't...

I really do see the reasons behind the check, especially when the entire library is all digital. It could be, however, handled so much better - why the hell won't you just learn from Steam? Yes, conceivably a hundred people could download games from one account and turn the offline mode to play...

Oh, but everyone is biased towards their own understanding of the world. Having an opinion founded on knowledge is good! :) I just pointed out the fact that they look oddly similar, feature identical hardware setup (box, camera, controller), and don't seem THAT different in terms of...

Weird how "next"-gen consoles, XBO and PS4, look like and seem to be one and the same device. Same hardware, same peripherals, pretty much identical functionality.

This is possibly one of the worst, most dull trailers I've seen in a while.

Wait. One and the same person doing modern Star Trek and Star Wars?!

I actually loved the inclusions from the Unfinished Tales and Silimarilion, as well as elements giving background scenes relating the whole thing to LotR. It changed the movie from "a group of dwarves and a hobbit go on an adventure" into something much more complex and inter-whined into the...

I just rewatched entire Bond series this month, and I believe that "Die Another Day" was the one I enjoyed watching the most - it refined on badasseery, godassery, gadgets, evil plots, crazy twists, and every other element introduced in previous movies.

A question for either Jim (if you read these) or for someone more familiar with his work: Is there any place that you put all of your great analyses into a more "serious" form? While I absolutely enjoy the humour and relate to why you do it the way you do it, I'd like to share your commentary...

This looks awful... and I'm not even talking about the graphical fidelity yet.

Funny how Absolution is already in a sale.
