    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Are legendary items from before still considered powerful now? I bought several cheap legendary items a while back on the AH for my monk. How are yellow drops now and how long would it take to replace gear that has stats that were hand picked from the AH? It just seems like an item would have to...

    Path of Exile

    As Khalid said, far from perfect, but far from as bad as you make it out to be. Just because you got bored, upset, tired of playing, doesn't mean the game is universally bad. A game that is critically acclaimed and voted PC game of the year is very far from poor, regardless of how much you want...

    Yeah, that's why it got 2013 PC game of the year.

    Laptop Computers

    Curious about this as well. Is there another laptop out there around the price and quality of the y510p? Probably going to pick something up in the next couple weeks or so.

    Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey

    I thought it was pretty entertaining. Thing is, there have been many shows in the past several years that have worked to accomplish the same thing. Wonders of the Universe being the one I really enjoyed. People that watch The Science Channel or The Discovery Channel on a semi-regular basis will...

    300: Rise of an empire

    Like a B movie? Really? It was enjoyable. Didn't have the same level of impact the first one did, but I never expected it to. It was more of the same to a lesser extent. Problem is, 300 was 8 years ago, and it was better executed. I suspect many people are going to be disappointed and slam...

    This actually looks pretty good.

    Almost Human

    I didn't see it coming. So few futuristic sci-fi shows on TV these days that I'm willing to take anything half way decent. For me, this is better than pretty much everything since BSG in the sci-fi arena.

    Travelling in California

    Is LA really that bad? I'm considering moving there. Like, within the next few weeks. How would it compare to a city like Shanghai or Beijing?

    Almost Human

    This past episode was pretty good. Urban in the club outfit made me lol. Don't know why all hackers are portrayed as rebellious emo teens though. What ever happened with the guy that was going over the wall a couple episodes back? Thought for sure that was going to be a two-parter.

    Not sure. TTGL had 27 episodes so maybe another 7 to 9. Still plenty of time to pull off some crazy stuff.

    Winter 2014 Anime Thread

    KLK - Wasn't sure they'd be able to keep it going, but each episode is jaw-droppingly awesome now. Rarely do I want to comment about a show after each episode, but I can't help myself with this one. So pumped up for Thursdays now.

    47 Ronin

    The English only thing got to me a bit as well. I mean, I understand it's being targeted for English speaking audiences - many of whom hate having to read subtitles - but it's just ridiculous sometimes and breaks all immersion. I am almost more likely to believe that the events depicted in this...

    Riddick (2013)

    I was hoping they would combine elements from both Pitch Black and Chronicles in this recent one, but they basically just redid the first movie. I can understand that they wanted to get back to what made Riddick unique in the first movie, but they completely ditched the story that had progressed...

    Winter 2014 Anime Thread

    So I just finished watching the first season of Clannad. It was oookayy. A few good moments, but wasn't as enthralled with it as everyone else seemed to be. Debating whether or not I want to do the second part now, or break it up and watch something else in between.

    Almost Human

    No problem at all, she does fine for the role she was casted for. Just stating what I see. I'd like to see her more involved.

    Almost Human

    Yeah, she always looks like she's trying to pose for a photoshoot. She says one or two unmemorable lines, does a sexy smirk thing, then scene.

    Nolan is the master of thrillers, so definitely him + Death Note.

    Winter 2014 Anime Thread

    This is how I've always felt for the most part. Death Note did drag at some points, and the ending could/should have been better, but the atmosphere and tone, music, art and animation offer an overall better package. Despite it's flaws, Death Note succeeds at being the better, darker thriller...

    While I agree with you, Afro is the only black lead in an anime and voiced by Sammy J. It was inevitable. I want more! MORE!

    Winter 2014 Anime Thread

    Was thinking about this, but the majority of choices on that list are from shows that are mostly carried by a single character. Where without them the show would have been meh. For the amazing shows that they are, I don't think TTGL or Attack on Titan had one standout amazing lead. Kamina maybe...

    Winter 2014 Anime Thread

    Mmm, an alright list IMO. There are so many good anime characters it's easy to get mad some didn't make the list. I'd have Makunouchi Ippo in the top 20 definitely. Goku deserves the spot for influence alone. I'm surprised Lain and Afro are on there. A couple of them I don't recognize.

    The Wolf of Wall Street (2013)

    Didn't feel long at all for me. Thought it was awesome and Leo did a great job. The only scene where I thought the comedy was forced was when they were talking about the midgets in the office. Other than that is was hilarious. Definitely one of my favorites last year.

    Someone convince me to watch Clannad. I've been holding it off for years, and I'm not into this kind of genre, but it has such good reviews. I tried watching about 5 minutes of the first episode and it just felt like...ugh. In other news, Kill la Kill was awesome this week.

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    So...I just did some research on the game for the first time. Didn't realize people were still attracted to hardcore cartoony graphics. It feels exactly like a sci-fi version of WoW, which is more than enough to turn me off completely.

    Ender's Game (2013)

    Finally got around to seeing this. I typically can't deal with child actors (under 18) as the main characters of a story, but they did alright in this movie. Never read the book. That short Mexican commander dudes face was starting to piss me off though. Glad Ender finished that clown off early.

    The Legend of Hercules

    Yeah, there's a least a foot between the sword and the guys face on that shot. Pretty bad. The first time I saw the trailer in the theater I thought it was a new TV show on ABC or something. I'd maybe watch the pilot in that case.

    DayZ, Arma2, Arma3

    Still don't get this game. I know it's only in alpha, but based on the livestreams I watched it looks extremely buggy and boring. Like people running for miles then trying to melee zombies that don't react then dying for no reason.
