The first 3 movies essentially cover what the series did. Apparently they have no intention of stopping after movie 3 so the movies will eventually start to tread new ground.

Have to say that was a pretty nice twist in Psycho Pass. Figured the Sybil system was a farce but definitely not in the way that it turned out to be.

I'm one of those ones that mainly uses the 360 just for the controller. The original PS3 controller's weight and lack of vibration definitely contributed to that decision.

Not saying that's a bad idea (because it's not) but personally I hate that type of mechanic. I just don't like feeling rushed in games. A few segments like that are fine but not the entire game. If the next game went that direction, I'm not even sure I'd pick it up. As for the announcement...

Oh another thing that really bugs me are impossible technologies. In particular how "zooming" in on something somehow reveals information that would be impossible for the device to capture. Like a satellite zooming in on a license plate but that zoomed in view is from an entirely different angle.

I got hooked on these recently:

I understand all this. I just find it kind of interesting how DVRs and DVDs never even enter the equation since that's how those shows are most often viewed. Lost may have been successful but there were plenty of other story driven shows that did just fine but that was never reflected in their...

More info has come out about this. Basically it's a prequel and is going to be released as a four part OVA. The first episode comes out on DVD July 26th.

One thing that kind of bugs me about most TV shows is how there's little to no overarching plot. Most episodes are pretty much self-contained with there only being the occasional reference or episode tying it to a larger plot. Then related to that, they rarely ever make a show with a defined end...

Unicorn definitely has an amazing soundtrack. I particularly like how the recent movie get their own soundtrack. Movie 6 comes out in March sometime. The Blu-ray release is at the end of the month but some rip from Bandai Channel may come sooner.

I'd think console hardware limitations would have something to do with it. Corners have to be cut to get them on this current generation of consoles. Current PCs and the next generation of consoles should have the horsepower to do them without gimmicks or a significant loss in graphical quality.

I definitely won't argue that there's some features in Windows 8 that aren't particularly intuitive. I mean I literally just figured out tonight that you could have your desktop and apps up at the same time on the same screen. I just never noticed the option before since it doesn't show up if...

There's so few exclusives that now it really depends on which ecosystem and controller you prefer. Personally I'll go with Microsoft since I find my PS3 is hardly getting used.

Just occurred to me after this chapter that Oda has been setting up the idea of a Straw Hat alliance for quite a while. Since after the Whitebeard War, the Straw Hats have made a number of powerful allies. I wouldn't be surprised to see those allies all come together to support Luffy somewhere...

I think a high intelligence in history would be seeing all these connections in historical events. Something like would be rather difficult to demonstrate, particularly on a test like this. I think the only place you could really demonstrate a talent like that would be in academia since you just...

Graphics aren't where I think hardware improvements will make the biggest difference. I'm more interested in seeing larger environments and more shit happening on screen. I think modern games have been very good at hiding the fact that they're even being limited at all through the clever use of...

Kind of surprised to see Northern Ireland on that list considering it's part of the UK.

This is hardly surprising though. It just seems to me that DC's properties haven't aged as well as Marvel's. I'm not sure if this is because of neglect or just the nature of the properties. I will say that DC's characters have always struck me as being more fanciful which I imagine would make...

I can definitely see the role of consoles shifting to be more like a media center rather than a gaming device but I don't see them disappearing anytime soon.

Casinos are the main thing to do in Cherokee now. Either way though, it's still worth visiting if you plan to drive through the national park.

Only thing that kind of bugged me about ZKC: The Unlimited was how the main character's power was clearly ripped from Index. Although I was happy to see this week that his power wasn't quite the same as Toma's. Then speaking of Index, here's a trailer to the movie that comes out in February...

I'm a Denmark as well. To this day, I still wonder why my grandma moved away from there.

An Index movie just came out in theaters but I have no idea if it's filler or not. Then Railgun S2 starts in the spring and it covers the sisters arc unsurprisingly.

That 3% promotion to me seems like it'd be indicative that the bank's health is less than stellar and they're desperate for new customers. Not that that is a problem unless you're planning to deposit over the FDIC limit.

The movie may have been kind of shitty but it had good music.

The area is way too touristy for my tastes but you should find plenty to entertain your kids in Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. The only must do there is check out the national park. The rest of stuff around there struck me as tourist trap type stuff.

Just hoping alternate timeline / time travel bullshit doesn't get brought to the Star Wars franchise.

I saw this movie last night and thought it was pretty good. My biggest complaint was how the movie jumped around so much. It seemed like they were more inclined to go through a checklist of "important" events rather than trying to create a compelling narrative. They used enough creative...

Has the same director and the two main characters have the same VAs.

All I know is that I can point to exactly where I got my last cold. Was cooped up in a cabin with the family over Christmas with my step-sister's 2 year old and 18 month old. Within a couple days, every adult in the house minus the two parents were sick. It's pretty safe to assume one of those...

I'm kind of conflicted on sick leave. Where I work I accrue one sick day a month and I'm not sure where it caps out at (think 30 days). Whatever the case, it's a significant amount of sick time that people regularly abuse. I mean it's pathetic when the nurse at work tells one of our secretaries...

Where I work it's strep that's going around, not the flu. Getting pretty annoying that people keep coming in with sore throats at this point since it's likely strep.

I find it interesting how the internet seems to always point to the worst case scenario first rather than the most likely.

They market the stuff for problems that people didn't even know they had. I mean how many people would know about erectile dysfunction if it wasn't for Bob Dole and Viagra?

It's for the people who can't safely receive the vaccine due to allergic reactions and whatnot.

I've seen some message boards have it so you can't see links or images until you reach a certain number of posts. That seems like it could be a decent middle ground. Either way, I think it's a worth while experiment. They can always switch it back if traffic just tanks.

I'm with Phoenix. I don't see the point in doing it just for the sake of doing it. If their products fit your needs, fine, but I wouldn't go out of my way to make sure everything is Apple.

I'll stay home if I feel like crap or am coughing and sneezing constantly. However it bugs me when people bitch at me for being at work when I don't sound 100% well. I mean this lady next to me has been bitching at me for well over a week just because I have some lingering symptoms from a sinus...

Kingdom Hearts 3 is still a long ways away though. It's unlikely to show up till after Final Fantasy Versus XIII gets released and who knows when that'll be. I honestly wouldn't expect to see KH3 for another 3-5 years. Although Marvel and Star Wars being in the same game is definitely something...
