I feel like a Yoda movie would be similar to midichlorians - answers to questions no one was really asking that take away from some of the mysticism of the Star Wars universe. I was hoping that with new people in control of Star Wars, we'd start to get to see new stories set in the Star Wars...

Kevin sort of was when Holly was introduced. He and Michael both wanted to date her, which led Michael to reinforcing Holly's belief that Kevin is retarded. I don't think Meredith or Creed have ever been shown in a romantic relationship one way or the other, which makes sense given their...

Stupidest way possible or only way The Office writers know how to create storylines? I mean, they've practically involved every office workers in some sort of love triangle or another at this point, so obviously they have to start including people behind the camera.

I'm always surprised at how fast I slip back into an accent when I visit family in Chicago.

I'm not too sold on the whole "oh, the guy who moves in next store just happens to be in the FBI and just happens to be in counterintelligence, oh, and did we mention he just happens to have been undercover?" It feels contrived. I understand the need for there to be conflict and the risk of...

Usually when a sitcom is in its later seasons, the writers get lazy and start exaggerating certain qualities of a character and make them more of a parody of themselves. Jim is probably the only character I can think of where the opposite is true. As time has gone on, he's become less of a...

Not sure if there are betters ways of getting it in America, but I've enjoyed the episodes I've watched onYouTube.

To be honest, I think this is the best season since Steve Carrell left, not that that's saying a ton.

They've said the laurels are only for dailies/monthlies initially. Eventually other achievements will be added that reward them, as well as some of the older ones rewarding them retroactively.

Really good bundle on saleat Amazonright now. It includes: Mark of the NinjaDeadlightInsanely Twisted Shadow PlanetIron BrigadeToy Soldiers It's $10 and part of the Editor's Choice, so if you still have a coupon, you can get it for $5. From what I've heard, Mark of the Ninja is worth that...

The upcoming patch is supposed to make Orr a little more friendly. They've said they're going to decrease the density of undead, add some waypoints that don't get contested, and tweak some of the events.

I'd watch that, but since that's unlikely to happen, at leastCraig Robinson is working on a new project with Greg Daniels, perhaps the next best thing.

To be fair, there are many episodes over the years where they've made it look like the camera crew is being sneaky in what they are recording, going back to the early seasons when they were trying to catch Jim and Pam in candid moments. They'd have them filming through blinds or we'd just get...

The Cave is basically a series of puzzles areas. There's usually a little bit of traveling between each puzzle area (which is how the course you take can vary depending on who you have in your party, since you'll come across obstacles only a certain character can get through). You don't have...

And this bundle is unlikely to last much longer. The Amazon sales rep has said he's basically just waiting for the call to pull the keys since THQ no longer exists and most of these properties are going to be changing hands. He's also said it might take a while to get some of these games back...

Decent game. I've played through it on every character now and seen all of their areas. I think the game has two faults though: One, you can't call all your characters to you, which results in having to run through areas repeatedly. Though, considering how certain areas work (particularly...

I think the days of having dark humor on network television is over. They want shows that will appeal to a broader audience, and dark humor is sort of a niche. Realistically, this show would've worked much better on one of the cable networks. It would've paired well with It's Always Sunny, in...

If you're talking about the Vigil, Order of Whispers, Durmond Priory thing, I wouldn't worry about it too much. That really only matters between levels 30-40 and 48-61. Once you hit 62, the personal story gives everyone the same choices regardless of what order you joined. That is, unless...

Depends on the publisher. Several of the bigger publishers (EA, Activision, etc.) have moved to $60 for most of their PC games, while others (Square-Enix, Capcom, etc.) haven't. Others seem to price depending on the game. Borderlands 2 and XCOM were both published by 2K Games, for instance...

For what is probably the most interesting part of the MMO, details seem to be fairly scant on the whole MMO/TV crossover thing. From the sounds of it, a lot of it really won't even come into playuntil thesecondseasondue to the fact that the first season is already filmed and the MMO isn't even...

Agreed on book 2. It really didn't have any of the charm of the first and seemed like it wanted to be more of a straightforward action tale. Thankfully,The Last Colonyrecaptured a lot of the feel of the first, though not entirely, but I felt it did end the "trilogy" in a satisfactory way.

That's one area I'd love to see them improve on in future expansions or whatever. The game has a ton of lore, but very little narrative. They came up with an ingenious way of delivering events and quests, but the explanation behind them is usually very bland and generic. MMOs like WoW...

They held over a few episodes from last season to make this season longer without having to do a full season order, which is smart considering the show hadn't proved itself in the ratings. But yeah, for some reason they just decided to mix those episodes in with the new ones. The first season...

Well, that's certainly one way of putting it: ?Star Wars? game segregates gay characters on gay planet Does this officially make ToR "gay4pay"?

To some degree, I can understand disregarding WoW. Copying WoW has never proven to be a successful model (however it should still be learned from). Disregarding FFXI though? There are a lot of things that game did right that still haven't been replicated in recent MMOs, but I'm guessing it's...

I imagine we'll see more of the plan laid out the closer it gets to releasing, but at first glance, that F2P model doesn't seem too terrible. It actually looks like they've created a system that is more about rewarding those that subscribe rather than placing crushing restrictions on those that...

And I never said you did. I already provided one example of that not being the case. It doesn't have to be everyone has the same paperdoll frame or everyone has a unique frame. There is a middle ground. There is also the fact that, even among the MMOs you've listed, others have taken a more...

ToR currently has 2 race/gender armor types. Adding a few more to make there be some diversity wouldn't create what you describe. It wouldn't jump from 2 to "12-20", but likely far less. I mean, at most, any additional race would just add two to the existing number (one for male, one for...

GW2 has 5 fairly unique looking races with Norn and Human being the most similar looking, but still distinct enough to be able to tell a difference from a reasonable distance away. So, there are 10 race/gender combos. However, they designed the races in a way where they only needfourvariations...

I don't necessarily see it as a problem with instancing, so much as no one is really doing anything with it. I mean, despite what its name may imply, "Exploration Mode" is a misnomer and completely misleading as to how they actually work. As far as I've seen, there's zero exploration involved...

As far as instances go, I think all the technology is there to make some really great dungeons, but so far it all hasn't been put together. For all Arenanet has attempted to innovate, they really did very little as far as dungeons are concerned. It's still a system that forces you to progress...

Well, shit:

For me, it'd beA Thing Called the Divine Fitsby Divine Fits.

It's not necessarily a point of making them playable. That's easy enough. It's the sustainability thereof. Anytime they add new armor, it becomes an additional set they have to create since one usually can't just be copied to a different shaped body and still look right. Animations generally...

To be honest, this is the sort of DLC I really don't mind. It's easy enough for me to skip without me feeling like I'm missing anything, while also not feeling like I should wait for some GotY pack. I also don't feel like I'm being sold the game piecemeal if I want to get the entire story.

The Walking Dead isprice matched on Amazonnow - $7.49 if you have an Editor's Choice coupon.

See, that's the thing that gets me. I could really understand if it was a smaller studio that decided to cut some corners with the races, but tens of millions of dollars were sunk into this. The best they could come up with were a bunch of bland, recolored humans? No Bothans, Ithorians, or...

My friend just bought the game and has really been enjoying it... but he's only like a day or two into it. I'll be curious to see if his experience matches up to what a lot of people say here, and he gets bored once he hits the level cap and the challenge is sucked out of the game.

I don't know that FFXI had more roles, just more ways of accomplishing said roles. Turtle tanking, avoidance tanking, and back-tanking still all essentially take place in the same corner of the holy trinity. Not that I'm really knocking FFXI's class design. The subjob system did a decent job...

Miss some of the games that were daily deals and flash deals and community vote deals several times? Good news! They'll be onsale again this weekend!
