    Yes, and Season 3, though Yahoo apparently took the entire series down, so I'm not sure where you can watch them now.

    Falling Skies season 4 starts June 22

    I was glad to see Lexi aged during the break so we didn't have to endure the typical creepy, super-intelligent child who has all of the answers trope, but I'm beginning to feel like they traded in one tired cliche for another. Lexi isn't the child prodigy, she's space Jesus. But, still, I'm...

    I just learned all of your characters on the same faction are automatically added as neighbors once they have a house. That's becoming a really nice way of having a whole lot of plugs at my disposal. Now if only there was a shared bank so I could transfer items easier...

    Better Call Saul

    It's going to more depend on what sort of supporting cast they are able to come up with. The most successful sitcoms are those that don't just rely on the main character to carry the entire show. Frasier had Niles and Martin. Alan Shore had Denny Crane. George Jefferson had Florence...

    How much do actuators figure in to how Medics work? Looking at their abilities, not many appear to require actuators nor are there many AMPs that affect or are affected by them.

    Fargo

    The whole "Based on a true story" conceit makes it difficult for there to be an ending where Lester replaces Malvo. If Lester gets away, how do we know that he becomes a hitman? The only way would be if he got caught too, and if that was the case, how much of that would even tie back to...

    They should do the same thing Arenanet did when they did their first hacker sweep. When people started complaining about being unfairly banned on Reddit, Arenanet posted that they'd look into any claims that were made, but they would post any evidence they had against you if you were...

    Maybe it changes when you get higher, but through level 22, all of my characters have had more medishots than they could possibly need. You get them frequently from the loot bag in challenges, so I've really never had a need to buy any from the venders or the CE. In fact, I've had to sell some...

    The outlinethey discussed prior to launchwas that there would be three types of patches: hotfixes, weekly patches, and content drops. The weekly patches are primarily focused on bug fixes, though the content drops are supposed to include bug fixes too.

    I had a healer use this argument too, and that logic only goes so far when it comes to Wildstar. Yes, you may be better than average at keeping an eye on people's hp and managing resources, but healing in this game is obviously a little more complex than other MMOs. It isn't just sitting back...

    Justice League of America

    I still think with the right director and a big enough budget, Aquaman has the potential to make a fantastic movie. There is a lot of unexplored territory that comes with having a superhero who primarily lives and fights underwater. And while people deride Aquaman as basically being the...

    I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that gold sellers have gotten much better at automating gold farming. GW2 had a similar system as Wildstar from day one, and the game was overrun with bots. But, let's be honest, while they might say a system like CREDD is designed to get rid of gold...

    Looks like there is a bug that'scapping people at 50g. If you have over that amount, don't use any venders or you'll lose anything above that amount. Edit: Looks like even zoning can cause this. I'm guessing they're going to have to do a rollback.

    Yeah, I'm finding it's really not too difficult to create a challenge if an area is getting too boring. Since basically every attack in the game will hit more than one enemy, I just start pulling as much as I can handle. This obviously works really well for those timed kill challenges, but...

    Yeah, I think the main difference between Wildstar and most other MMOs that's come out in the past decade is Wildstar really wasn't one that promised the world and failed to deliver. It's not like they proclaimed Wildstar to be a revolutionary game that would be the one and true WoW killer that...

    Sorry, I obviously meant African-American humor. It's hard to deny that the Coens are truly the Tyler Perry of dramas set in the Upper Midwest.

    When I heard Key and Peele were cast in the show, it sounded like some needless gimmick capitalizing on their recent popularity. When we first saw them in the car when Malvo shot up Fargo, I was hoping that was it - just a short cameo. But, I have to say, they've quickly become one of my...

    Steam summer sale is rumored to be starting next week on the 19th. I guess they're doing it earlier this year so it won't overlap with the DOTA tournament.

    The thing I liked the most about GW2's leveling is I never felt tied to a particular area. I could just run around, go where I want, and there was usually something that'd pop up that I could do no matter where I was. It sort of felt like EverQuest again where you were just going where the exp...

    Honestly, one of the things I like about challenges is that they break up the monotony. I think I'd find the quest chains a lot more tiresome if I didn't keep on coming across challenges that require me to play differently and more face paced. Since the challenges usually have some relation to...

    You have space hamsters, giant robots, zombies, golems, anime rejects, dragon lizards, and everyone looks the same? Also - and it took me a while to realize this - but there aren't stat sacrifices at lower levels. It's just that whatever gear you are looking at compares to what you are...

    I don't know about visually, but there is something really satisfying about playing what is basically a space cowboy. As far as spellsurge go, I feel it suffers from the same problem as sprint. It's not that you feel faster when you hold down shift, but that you feel slower when you don't...

    It surprises me that the guide program went by the wayside and no one has tried to improve on it. If done right, you're basically getting some free labor that offsets some of the CS department's workload onto paying customers. It's like the perfect scheme. But really, one of the most...

    I don't really understand their objection to rebinding the LMB and RMB. Apparently, they patched it out during beta and it's only available in addons due to them forgetting to remove it from the API, which means some of these addons might be disabled in the future. Hopefully the fact that a...

    I'll have to give that a try. The thing that annoys me the most about the bags is there's no way I've found to just collapse loot. You can have it organize by category, rarity, or alphabetically, none of which I like since it makes it hard to tell what new items I've picked up. And it's...

    It will likely benefit Carbine long term too. MMOs all seem eager to spend a ton of money on VO during development and use it as a way of promoting the game as if it's some revolutionary feature. Then, after release, they realize how expensive and how much it holds up development, and less and...

    I'm not sure, but you'll only be in that area until about level 5 or 6, really about an hour or so. Once you get to the next area (they'll go to Deradune, you'll go to Ellevar), there's a ship right at where you enter that will take you over to where they are.

    I generally go for support/CC roles, which I think is my primary problem, since there aren't really any heavily support based classes. I like the type of class that needs to stay on his toes and can turn around a battle if played well. DPS has never been a big concern because min/maxing to get...
