    Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor

    That flurry kill/head explosion ability is a much more reliable way to permanently kill the captains. I don't even know when I got it, but it beats praying that your execution ability results in a decapitation.

    MLB 2014 Season Thread

    Why does MLB allow Joe Buck to announce nationally televised Cardinal games? He fucking ruins the broadcasts with his flagrant homerism.

    Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor

    So I guess trying to clear the map of captains is futile until you advance the story past a certain point. I killed most of the captains in the Sauron's army menu while running around doing side missions and all their positions ended up being filled by unknown enemies.

    Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor

    After decapitating a couple of captains, I'm not having any luck getting rid of these fuckers for good. I don't know if you have to hit a certain button during the combat finisher move or what, but I'm tired of fighting the same dudes 3 or 4 times.

    Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor

    The only complaint I have is that the environments can become monotonous. I don't really know what I was expecting from a game that takes place in Mordor, but I wish you could explore interior locations.

    The Imitation Game (2014)

    I hope they include the government-ordered castration.

    Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor

    If a captain's body is lying on the ground in the "Sauron's army" menu, that means he has merely been defeated. If you see his head on a spike, that means he's been permanently dispatched. That's why they keep coming after you and many of them can track you and overwhelm you when you're trying...

    Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor

    Captains don't respawn. If they come back, that means you didn't kill them. Haruk (or whatever his name is) tracked me 4 or 5 times before I got an execution ability and each time his appearance would become more gruesome (scars, bag over his head).

    Wasteland 2

    LOL I'm such a moron. I thought ammo was classified solely by weapon type. I didn't realize there were different calibers. Thanks.

    Wasteland 2

    Anyone experiencing the reloading bug? I just equipped Pills with a great handgun but it says I'm permanently out of ammo. The same thing happened with one of Cold Eye's sniper rifles but that fixed itself somehow.

    Transparent

    Anyone else watching this? Amazon just posted the entire season for you Prime users. It's about a man (Jeffrey Tambor) undergoing a radical change as a woman and the secrets his family keeps.

    Enemy (2013)

    He has dissociative identity disorder. I thought it was fairly obvious by the end of the movie.

    Point Break Remake (2015)

    This might be the most pointless remake of all time.

    Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor

    If this does indeed play like Assassin's Creed and the Batman Arkham series, keyboard and mouse will be fine. I actually think kb/m is more intuitive in those games.

    Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor

    It's getting better reviews than I thought.

    Wasteland 2

    I'm only a few hours in but already fed up with this game. Having to find an endless wave of pod people with no option or escape or sneak by is the complete opposite of fun.

    Gone Girl

    Until recently, I had only slight knowledge of the story (wife goes missing, husband is implicated) but that sounds stupid as shit.

    Deadpool (2016)

    So yeah, it's going to be rated PG-13. Remember when studios weren't afraid to make movies like Blade?

    The Strain

    Even the more tolerable characters like the Ukrainian pest control guy and the old Armenian Jew have irritating qualities. The old guy has that William Shatner speech pattern and the exterminator's accent fluctuates between Ukrainian and Jersey. Are the books this campy and ridiculous? The...

    Deadpool movie is back on. I like Ryan Reynolds, but Deadpool is the worst character to have his own feature film.

    Edge of Tomorrow (2014)

    Spielberg has served as the producer of countless projects and likely hasn't had any creative input on them.

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    It's a rhetorical question. The game looks dumb as shit.

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    I watched a friend play this and have to ask: Where's the story? It just seems like a bunch of nebulous plot points that have you kill shit over and over on various planets in the solar system. I hear comparisons to Borderlands but games like Borderlands and Halo have more substantial story...

    The Strain

    I'm only 3 episodes in, but I'm so fucking annoyed by the stupidity of these characters. "Your eyes are bleeding and you look like the walking dead. Go back to bed, honey!" Can't they move the plot along without resorting to this crap?

    Boyhood - Richard Linklater's next movie

    All the scenes involving the alcoholic stepfather are my favorite. I don't know if it was intentional or not, but everything about him is so comical. I'm laughing just thinking about that scene in which Patricia Arquette is lying on the garage floor and the guy comes in and says, "Don't worry...

    Boyhood - Richard Linklater's next movie

    I've always thought Linklater was a sort of unheralded genius, but this movie might be the most overrated of the last decade. Cringeworthy dialogue, ham-fisted political sentiments, and a wholly uninteresting lead character ruined this movie. Patricia Arquette is really hot, though.

    How is this guy a maniac? You're just talking out of your ass. I doubt he has any qualms about doing blockbuster movies but committing to a multi-film is sort of a big deal.

    I can't really think of any games that are improved by cheating. I used a cheat in Morrowind and it immediately ruined the game for me.

    I didn't know much about Age of Ultron until recently, but I wanna know why it was necessary to change Ultron's origin. Hank Pym doesn't have to be a major character in the movie, but did they really have to make Tony Stark the creator?
