    Austin

    I second Black's for BBQ. It is a bit of a drive, but worth it. If you are near the capital, Hut's Hamburgers is awesome, plus it is near Book People and Waterloo Records (if you are in to dirty hipster things). The Russian House was a decent place, was a nice change of pace for "Typical"...

    Sports Entertainment

    But, neither of them can cut a promo to save their lives, so maybe that is the "genius" of the match up. I was rather surprised to hear WWE not mute the boos on Roman on Raw. Oh well, I can just fondly look back on this past WM and just ignore the matches after the Women's Championship.

    Panzer Waltz (Mobile android)

    They do have the typical "VIP" thing that increases resource production. Outside of Iron, I am not sure what the G-Corn does whatsoever. I have not been tempted to spend real money at all. I am kicking myself for leveling a shitty 2 star tank (KV 85) when the reddit consensus is that...

    Panzer Waltz (Mobile android)

    So, this released recently as one of those kancolle anime girls meets ww2 games. I admit to playing it and feeling dirty while doing so. Anyone else trying it out? At the moment there is not a lot of newbie information out there that is reliable as to team comp/grind etc.

    MMA Thread

    I was torn in this fight as I like both fighters. I have to say though that I like the anti-wwe aspect of the lead up. Both Cerrone and Olivera were both avoiding the bombasity (is that even a word) that the UFC and Bellator has been heading towards recently. I fully enjoyed that fight as...

    Deadpool (2016)

    I'd echo most of what everyone has said thus far. As a casual comic-book reader I know of deadpool, but was not lost in the movie at all. Likewise it was a surprisingly hard "R" for a comic book movie--which most of you had already covered. All-in-all I'd rank this as my number two favorite...

    Dave Mirra

    I was certainly surprised, but every time I ran into him in Greenville, he was 1: A utter cunt, 2: Drunk and/or on other things. Sucks that he killed himself, but I'm not too broken up. Edit: Love the anon rep calling me out on this response. Talk to anyone from the area who dealt with him...

    Return of Reckoning - Warhammer Online Private Server

    I always liked the DAOC keep/relic system. It has been too long since I played WO to remember if they tried something like that, but I don't think they did.

    RIP Lemmy

    My CSB time: At the 95 Foundations festival, every time during the 3 days I went past the restaurant in the Burbank Hilton, Lemmy and Jim Martin (ex Faith No More) were at the bar drinking. Both were relaxed and talkative if you approached them but smelly as fuck. When Motorhead played there...

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    He also looks a bit like Peter Cushing/Grand Moff Tarkin. But I will always call him Emperor Gollum.

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    I'm convinced that emperor gollum is an illusion within an illusion (inception!), and that the 'real' one will be a returning villain from the previous films. Other than that my wife is convinced rey is han and leia's 2nd kid (twins!), and I am convinced she is gollum's.

    College Football 2015-16

    Easy, you take the CFB playoff committee money to turn a blind eye to avoid any upsets. Realistically though, that was an AWFUL fucking call. I hope that crew never officiates another game. Borderline calls are one thing; three yard errors are another.

    Warhammer 40,000 Novels

    Still only one, Abnett isverryfar behind right now. On the bright side they just released a new Ghosts' anthology a few weeks back with 2-3 short stories by Abnett that are set (mostly) between Salvation's Reach and the upcoming book. As usual it is (barring one or two stories) good for 40k.

    Can't wait. Also, I wish they'd do the localization of the cat's voice with the voice of Meowth.

    The Bastard Executioner

    To be honest, I found it predictable and rather unimpressive. Granted, I watched it since nothing else was on, but every "twist" was predictable from a mile off. Likewise, the foreshadowing was heavy-handed even before the visions. I kept expecting to hear the sons of anarchy theme as well...

    All Things Joe Abercrombie

    Figured I'd weigh in since I started the thread back on FOH. The first trilogy was, to me, a refreshing change of pace from "typical" high fantasy that is marketed these days (Wizards of the Coast, I'm looking at you). I do agree the First Law trilogy has its flaws, but overall was a very...

    MMA Thread

    Correct me if I am mistaken, but wasn't Holm supposed to be the "next big thing" in women's mma? Yet, I seem to remember the two fights I've watched with her being snoozefests and the most recent one (one of those free fight nights) being a toss-up to everyone but the judges. TBH I'd rather see...

    It looks like you may have to buy the full version in order to join. The version that installs does not have the same functions as in the demo video. Will try again later today after work if it is still open.

    Fear the Walking Dead

    I have a running bet with my wife that we won't actually see a "real" walker until the next-to-last or last episode. There will be plenty of misdirection with junkies/homeless people, but no full-frame shot walker till the end. Instead we will get a family/work drama about living in LA.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I know there is a catch up mechanism, but I see characters with a specific buff on them that adds extra battle xp. That is the buff that I lack--had thought that you got it at 50 but, again, don't have it myself.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Question, did they move the battle xp buff from 50 to 60? Just hit 50 on my DRG last night and when I class switched, did not see the buff. Makes sense, but a bummer since I focused only on levels thus far.

    World of Warships

    As a beta tester here's my take: The Good: An interesting take on the Wargaming Team vs. Team model--way better than the competitor (navyfield2) The Bad: Wargaming Matchmaker Balance (tm)--I don't know what the malfunction is at wargaming, but they have ALWAYS had issues with matchmaking...

    Or a lexington vs. a saipan--ridiculous power discrepancy even though it is only two tiers.

    World of Tanks

    Funniest part is that the Matchmaking issues are a global legacy in wargaming products. Warplanes suffered through it and playing Warships now, Matchmaker is, if anything, worse than in WoT especially due to tier power discrepancies in BB/CV steps.
