    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    I think it's more paranoia of showing off something too early and having people judge it as the finished product. Honestly, Wildstar has some of this too (couple classes still unrevealed, for example). They just do such a great job getting people excited about what they can show off due to...

    StarCraft Universe - Kickstarter SCII MMORPG?

    Arcade Highlight: StarCraft Universe To my understanding, this is basically a glorified mod, which is why Blizzard isn't standing in their way. They're allowed to raise money to develop it, but they still can't profit off of it.

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    MMOs really need to learn how to make animations during combat flow better. The combat in that video looks incredibly jerky. They do an attack, then just stand there for a moment before launching into another one. While I'm sure it makes it much easier, it doesn't matter how good your combat...

    Homeland

    Not to mention, it's pretty common for people on psychotropic drugs to go off their meds because they falsely believe they no longer need them. It's also been established that Carrie believes she's more effective at her job when she's not medicated. They make her miss things and "foggy"...

    Homeland

    I sort of get where they're going with the Dana drama now, at least. The part with Jessica and Carrie made it clear they're going with a parallel between Carrie and Dana and them both going after guys they know aren't good for them. Because of that, like Sean says, I doubt it's over. This is...

    Either that, or he let Carrie know he had a plan, but decided to keep her in the dark about the exact details so she'd act believably.

    Homeland

    At least they didn't use the entire cliche and have them have to go on the run because the gas station attendant recognized them and called the police! They used it more to have Dana find out the truth about her boyfriend, though it did strike me as ridiculous that a news organization would be...

    Homeland

    At this point, it's hard to even tell how much trust they're putting in her. While they likely view it as incredibly unlikely for her to go back to the CIA after they've thrown the complete weight of the organization behind keeping her institutionalized, there's really nothing much Carrie could...

    Homeland

    It doesn't really sound like they're putting her on payroll as an ongoing employee. Carrie only has a temporary use to them. They want whatever information she can provide them regarding the CIA and its operations in the Middle East. Since (as far as they know) she's no longer working for the...

    I can't help but feel a little sorry for the actress that plays Dana. She's obviously a talented actress, probably the best of the Brody clan (Damien Lewis notwithstanding), so I can understand why the writers would try to use her heavily. It's just that they haven't found a way to give her...

    Eh, maybe losing Pierce and Troy will end up being a good thing. Season 3 started to go downhill because they got too comfortable. Harmon seems the type that works best under pressure. The first two seasons were so great because he was struggling to figure the show out and trying to get...

    The first season's writing struck me as if it was inspired by Breaking Bad. They approached Brody similarly to Walt, where both characters were seemingly good men who were motivated to do horrible things. Brody and Walt often engage in behavior you normally wouldn't expect from a protagonist...

    I played with a keyboard/mouse and had no issues. From what I recall, they did a good job with PC controls. GFWL got stripped out this week. The game now uses Steamworks. If you didn't have it on Steam, youshouldbe able to register your key to Steam, which also unlocks all DLC. However, a...

    Just stumbled upon that site the other day. There are several sites out there that track game price history, but this one looks to be the most comprehensive, tracking sites I hadn't even heard of. And the email notifications is a really nice feature.

    Once Upon a Time

    I find it sort of odd inWonderlandthat they use many references to Disney'sAladdin- same villain, same city, carpet, even going so far to reference songs from it - but instead of giving the Genie the same iconic style of lamp, they give him one that looks like it's fromI Dream of Jeannie.

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    The more I read about Warplots, the more similar they sound to what Cryptic/Paragon Studios' initial idea was for bases in City of Heroes. That excites me because that was an idea I was always disappointed that they were never able to fully implement.

    I don't know. I think if the auction remains that low, EA would scoop it up even if it was just to sit on the rights so no one else could profit from the KoA name. But don't forget, the auction also includes the rights to Rise of Nations, which might oddly be the more lucrative thing to try...

    Once Upon a Time

    I don't think OUAT's CGI is any better, just that they don't have to use it as often. They mostly just have to use it in flashbacks to the storybook worlds, and even then, it's not always necessary due to much of the filming being done outdoors. With Wonderland, nearly all of the show appears...

    There was some talk of Microsoft wanting to reboot the series as original programing for the Xbox. There hasn't been much talk of it since earlier in the year, and I don't recall there being anymore talk about Xbox One having original programming, so who knows? Honestly, I'm not sure what...

    Breaking Bad

    Some cable network is showing Heroes reruns now. I caught an episode from the first season and was surprised it still held up fairly well. It's amazing to me how fast that show went to shit. It'd be easy to blame the writers' strike, but it's clear they never knew what they were going to do...

    I won't mind going back to server specific markets. The one thing I noticed in GW2 was, when you have hundreds of thousands of people using the market to sell things, the market gets so flooded that the only way items can have any value is either by beingextremelyrare, being time limited, or by...

    Bioshock Infinite

    Really loved these promos forBioshock: Infinite, so I'm glad to see them being continued for the DLC. The fact that they reference a woman who lived in Rapture but escaped to New York makes me wonder if the Bioshock novel is considered to be canon and will tie-in with the DLC.

    SimCity

    I don't see the point of announcing they might possibly someday maybe include offline mode if they can. The cynic in me thinks this is just them trying to build up some goodwill before the expansion comes out. "See! We do listen to our players... eventually."

    To be honest, I really don't think it matters. The important thing isn't why he left Gretchen and Grey Matter, but the fact that he did. It may be a blind spot in the writing, but one that really doesn't seem to have any impact one way or the other. I don't think finding out that he left...

    The thing that made that scene even more poignant was seeing how Skyler and her children were basically fine. From the very beginning, Walt convinced himself that his death would leave his family completely destitute, which lead to him calculating exactly how much money he needed to raise so...
