    Overwatch

    Is that what happened to D3? Do the consoles not get all of the changes like greater rifts and seasons, etc?

    Overwatch

    Maybe I'm mis-remembering, but I thought the game supports game pads, so consoles should be in eventually. Wouldn't be surprised if they treated it like Diablo 3 and did PC first for balance/bug patching and then consoles later on.

    Sounds similar to Effigy always giving a golden minion even if it's just a non-golden Effigy played.

    Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    With Bobbi, I'm thinking they're going to do a reverse "save the princess" thing where Hunter gets caught by Ward and Bobbi swoops in and gets her guy out. I hope they don't, but I can see it happening.

    Smartwatches / Fitness Trackers

    Haven't pulled the trigger on any tracking device yet. Decided to just go with apps for now: Under Armour Record and Stronglifts 5x5. Record covers the steps, sleep, and exercise tracking (though manual input for the latter two). Stronglifts is good for a simple 5x5 routine and you input how...

    The actual Cinder device doesn't sound very impressive, but the idea that kitchen devices are getting more precise in temperature control is what I like. I just realized a few weeks ago that one of my electric burners runs hotter than the other and now I compensate for it. But if stoves had more...

    The Muppets (new Muppet Show for 2015)

    I dunno, I still like the show. I'm not rolling on the floor, but I definitely get a few chuckles over the course of an ep. Applegate and Offerman's stories were pretty weak, but I liked Fozzie and Kermit's. Maybe I have low expectations or just easily amused

    Heroes of the Storm

    Probably looks really cool, but that seems like a lot of effort (2 ults) for one kill. I guess it's more flexible than hiding behind a wall to secure the kill though.

    Sleepy Hollow

    Definitely. The big bad from season 2 is dead and this new season is essentially a fresh start. Also, apparently they're going to do a crossover with Bones for Halloween. Haven't watched Bones in awhile, but it seems really weird. Bones and Booth chasing demons? Ichabod and Abbie with the...

    Heroes of the Storm

    Yeah. A new skin seems like a waste of resources. I was thinking maybe a recolor of an existing mount at best. But giving gold didn't seem like a great deal for the end of a season.

    Thanks, I knew about the achievements, just not GR. (Leveled to 70 for the HOTS mount) What do other MOBAs do / what would people expect for a season reward in HOTS? Gold? A mount?

    Sleepy Hollow

    Season premiere last night felt pretty good. I had totally forgotten what happened last season though so I spent half the episode trying to figure out why Abby was back in the present and not still stuck in the past. Everyone was sliding back into their roles and it felt a lot more grounded...

    Hearthstone gives out rewards based on your rank for their monthly seasons. Haven't really done much with D3's GR ladder, are there rewards there for the season?

    Smartwatches / Fitness Trackers

    Bump. Don't know why, but I've been getting the itch to get an activity tracker or smartwatch. To the people who bought one when this thread was still active 4-6 months ago, do you still use yours? Any big recommendations / ones to avoid?

    Interesting perspective from Fan on Tyrande. Are the numbers out yet on how much Shadowstalk is going to heal for? He makes it sound like a big deal for competitive play if she becomes a viable solo healer. He also glosses over Chen/Diablo which was interesting too.

    It's an interesting point though. If they make local battling / trading mandatory (i.e. No online trading or battles), then people are going to be forced to meet up and play to level up. You're probably not going to get very far if you only catch and train on the Pidgey that shows up at your...

    Heroes of the Storm

    Definitely not a burst healer, and given her passive, I don't think she can heal herself. She also doesn't have a healing ult, pure buff / utility. I wonder what her talents are going to be like, hopefully she gets a talent to let her heal 2 ppl simultaneously.

    After halving it, I don't do lateral slices, but radial slices (90, 60, and 30 then 120 and 150 degrees). Makes more sense to me considering the round shape of an onion, but it probably doesn't make any difference in the overall dice.

    I'd assume they are doing the data analysis, just not releasing the data nor the analysis, just the conclusions. I only see benefits in them releasing it though (i.e. free labor from interested people sifting through it). But I'm sure there's some proprietary or privacy reason that they're...

    The smart watch looks pretty stupid though, but as a way to ID another 'trainer', it's kinda interesting. Not that I would use one, but a Pokedex case for your smartphone would be better. Hopefully you can trade with online 'friends' or they have some kind of trading network so we wouldn't...
