    State of the Union

    A lot of people on the right believe him to be some anti-Christian socialist who's out to dismantle America's moral fabric. But the truth of the matter is that he's not much different from Bush and many liberals insist on making excuses for him.

    True Detective

    I know that it's the same spiral symbol found on the victims but I have no idea what it's implying. What is the number 6 supposed to represent?

    True Detective

    I'm having a brainfart at the moment. What are these pictures supposed to suggest?

    EQ Never

    This is shaping up to be a blend of all the sterile, casual MMO features of the last decade. This is seriously embarrassing. It's amazing that developers keep churning out games that don't inconvenience but also don't engage. I haven't really kept up with the Brad McQuaid news. Have his ideas...

    TMNT Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

    Why are reboots always made by shitty fucking directors like McG or this scrub? I'm not suggesting Aronofsky should helm this turtle movie, but get someone reputable.

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    This is going to be the most expensive video game bust of all time. I seriously can't believe anyone was optimistic about this crap.

    State of the Union

    The dude advertised himself as a sort of progressive savior and he's anything but. He's probably worse than Bush at this point. Fuck him.

    State of the Union

    So Obama plans to fast-track TPP. Can this cocksucker be impeached already?

    TMNT Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

    I don't have hope for this movie because it's being directed by the same guy who directed bullshit like Battle Los Angeles, Wrath of the Titans and Darkness Falls.

    Thief (2014)

    Most people who have tested it don't have a lot of positive things to say about it. I was skeptical the moment one of the developers said they were sacrificing interaction with the environment for graphics. It's too bad because this was one of my favorite series of the late 90s/2000s.

    TMNT Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

    There's nothing wrong with the turtles' looks. They look more like turtles.

    Dark Souls 2

    It's kind of funny that people were bemoaning the frame rate restriction on PC. Unless you juxtapose samples of 30 fps and 60 fps, you're not gonna notice much difference.

    Which Mass Effect installment is your favorite?

    No one else had a problem with ME 3's side missions? They made the game feel soulless and empty.

    Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor

    The graphics and combat are impressive, but I'd to see more RPG elements with human settlements and a variety of enemies. I don't want to spend hours killing nothing but orcs.

    Which Mass Effect installment is your favorite?

    I think Mass Effect 2 is the most balanced. The first game grants you more opportunities to explore, but most of the environments are rehashed and many of the missions are boilerplate. Mass Effect 3 lies at the other extreme. You can't really explore outside the main storyline and most of the...

    Dark Souls 2

    I'm reading that, although the PC version of Dark Souls 2 is serving as the foundation, it won't look much different from a 360 game. That's pretty disappointing if true.

    MLB Hot Stove '13-'14

    The Yankees spent like a teenage girl with her dad's credit card and didn't address the infield or bullpen. They pretty much sacrificed 2013, losing Russell Martin in the process, and then abandoned their goal to stay under the luxury tax threshold. You either have a long-term plan or you don't.

    Arrow

    He and Cyrus Gold have been long-time friends and Oliver Queen even sees a photo of them together, triggering a flashback of his near-death experience. What would Laurel's motivation be for pointing the finger at Sebastian? I realize I'm arguing about a fictional character, but the writers can...

    Arrow

    The characters on this show are conveniently stupid. Oliver Queen has been dealing with villains for how long and he just accepts that Sebastian Blood is a good guy despite all the peculiar events going on?

    Moving to San Antonio

    San Antonio's sprawl is fucking terrible. It's the one thing I hate about Texas cities. You'll spend about 30 minutes driving from one end to the other. Check out the Alamo Heights area for homes.

    True Detective

    He doesn't have the same appearance he had in Dallas Buyers Club. He's just not as buff as he was in all the chick flicks.

    The Wolf of Wall Street (2013)

    The only problem I had with the movie was the soundtrack. Many of the songs were used to indicate a change in the timeline but they also felt out of place. Why the fuck would you use Foo Fighters in a movie like that?

    Stories in video games

    This is patently false as plot provides context for characters. With a few exceptions, I don't think most games can neglect the story and expect any long-term appeal. Dota is an arena battle game so I'm not sure a story is all that important. I also think stories in MMOs tend to be fairly...

    State of Decay (Xbox 360, PC)

    I played for a few hours just to see what the fuss was about. While the interface is a little annoying to navigate, the biggest problem is that this game is just boring as fuck. These vast open worlds are better suited for games like Day Z because running from abandoned building to abandoned...

    I have a problem with most conceptual bullshit. Damien Hirst is a fucking hack.

    The Wolf of Wall Street (2013)

    I think it's strange that he's made motivational speaking his new career. Dude is a fucking psychopath. The fact that he got only 2 years in prison shows what a joke the U.S. justice system is.

    The Wolf of Wall Street (2013)

    The movie follows the memoir pretty closely, but most of it is probably bullshit. And by most accounts, he's a bigger jerk than depicted in the movie.

    Borderlands 2

    I downloaded this game and all the DLC and it's one of the better gaming experiences I've had the last few years. The DLC campaigns could comprise a game all their own as each one takes about 10 hours to complete. I haven't completed the main storyline but it seems like the game would be pretty...

    American Hustle

    I'm confused by all this talk about the movie being convoluted. It's about an overzealous cop employing a couple of con artists to catch politicians accepting kickbacks. It's just a funny movie with no real intention of fooling the audience. My only problem is the casting of Jennifer...

    New Orleans

    New Orleans is hands down one of the most depressing cities I've ever visited. The landscape outside the French Quarter (which isn't that cool) is flat and drab. Some of the wards have interesting history they're not reason enough to go there. I last went during Halloween three years ago and...

    Witcher 3

    The problem I had with the first two games is that the worlds just felt uninhabited. It's been a long time since I played The Witcher but I remember visiting several towns that had two or three people and it just bugged me.

    Most underrated games of 2013

    Call of Juarez: Gunslinger - Stylized much in the same way as Borderlands and was a big improvement over the disappointing Cartel installment. Rayman Legends - The series just keeps getting better which I didn't think was possible The Swapper - best indie puzzle game in recent memory. I...

    Tom Bombadil is the worst character in The Lord of the Rings and the very definition of deus ex machina.

    MLB Hot Stove '13-'14

    Says the guy whose team paid Fielder 25 million a year in the first place and got nothing in return for Fister. And the A's got worse so I'm not worried about them.

    Dawn of The Planet of The Apes

    James Franco's face was ripped off by his pet monkey in the director's cut so that's why he's not in the sequel.
