    Public Service Annoucement: Portal Is Free Again

    If you had that big of a problem, then you do need to stay away. Just keep in mind if you do crack, it's no reason to start binging, and go right back to abstinence.

    Public Service Annoucement: Portal Is Free Again

    If you haven't played it it, it is. You should make an exception for this.

    Sports - Pitt and Syracuse starting a new re-alignment?

    I don't think I'd call it the final blow, but I think we've reached the tipping point, especially with Texas Tech leaving, or at least trying, the Big Twelve, which will precipitate it's collapse.

    DC Comics Reboot

    You'll figure this out as soon as you look at them. This will take some reading to figure out. All I've read so far are Action Comics, Detective Comics, and Justice League. I liked each of them. I plan on giving each of the Bats and GL books a try along with Aquaman, Wonder Woman, and Mr...

    Am I the only one who found Dragon Age 2 superior to Origins?

    They set a really aggressive release date, about eighteen months after DA:O, but then made the mistake of trying to cram almost as much content into. So, rather than have fewer quests they decided to reuse locations, which ended up being one of the bigger criticisms of the game. I wonder if...

    DC Comics Reboot

    Difference is that The Thing died right in front of him, Johnny was on the bottom of a scrum on the other side of a closing portal to the negative zone, i.e. they have an easy out when they decide to bring him back, since his alleged death was never shown.

    Cartoons for Geeks Both Young and Old

    While Freakazoid! is the bestest cartoon ever, how could you leave out Animaniacs and Tiny Toon Adventures?

    New Star Trek TV Series In Development

    Do you not realize a lot of animated shows are actually animated in Asia? Where a show's made doesn't determine the style.

    Ultima IV FREE on GoG.com!!

    Six down, seven more to go. Once that's done they need to get to work on the rest of the Wing Commander games, and System Shock.

    New XCOM walk through demo, damn this looks cool! :)

    It absolutely was not a Real Time Strategy game, it was a turn based tactical game. Big difference. This is also not the first time someone has made an X-COM FPS.

    DC Comics Reboot

    But that wouldn't solve the fundamental problem in his, and others, eyes and that's the fact that being married aged the character and that's what they disliked about it.

    DC Comics Reboot

    Because Joe Quesada didn't like the fact Peter was married and this was there way of undoing it.

    Batman: The Killing Joke -- crap

    I won't say any more about it than what's in the Amazon blurb. Powers has lost me a bit as well, but I think it has more to do with the inconsistent schedule than the drift in direction. Bendis has said they know what the end of it is, so they aren't completely aimless. Since you like Powers...

    Batman: The Killing Joke -- crap

    Mind you I don't think Watchmen is bad, I just don't have the love for it many others do and in my experience they all read it much closer to it's original release as opposed to my reading it fifteen to twenty years after the fact. Thus my supposition as to why. I don't think there is a modern...

    Sci-Fi for RPGers

    How about Blackcollar by Timothy Zahn. It doesn't have any morality play preachiness that I recall and it definitely has some actiony bits and the enhanced humans that would make good protagonist for an rpg. Bonus: The link above is for a collection of the first two books that you can get...
