    The Secret World

    I am downloading it now. Did the character transfer thing so we will see what that results in.

    American Gods

    Yeah Mr. World, just like Technical Boy, is different in this version of the story. Whereas in the original he was an aspect of the Men in Black / The Smoking Man / Illuminati-type conspiracy, here he is Globalization personified. So whereas in the original the New God's were led by a...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I do think it would be relatively easy to make a Diablo-like game akin to the Marvel Super Heroes title that makes use of the various characters in the Blizzard Extended Universe. Maybe such a thing is too meta derivative even for them? Then again I'm a bit surprised that there hasn't been...

    Transformers: The Last Knight (2017)

    Against all better judgement I went to see this and was mildly entertained... but the third act was just plain garbage. I've gotten accustomed to giant plotholes in Bayformer movies, but honestly this takes the cake. The whole final third of the movie is back to traditional 'tinfoil in a...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I'm pretty sure it will hinge on the Tauren people's preference for Left Twix

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I have a feeling that everything is leading to more of a United Nations sort of world government. The current 'faction heads' of Sylvanas and Anduin are pretty terrible and significantly less qualified than many of the members of their respective councils. I would much rather see a unified...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Argus in the sky is a pretty awesome way to tease the next major patch. Still can't believe they are doing Argus as a patch to Legion instead of a full additional expansion. Just saw some people posting on MMO-Champion to the effect of "Are we ever going to see the horde again? Why wasn't...

    Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018)

    I have no idea how you lose the director near the end of principal shooting ... Like who the hell is directing it in the meantime and how can they reconcile the creative differences if the damn footage is already shot? Do you halt production and then come back and reshoot things? If its dire...

    Doctor Who

    They are doing the War Master as a Big Finish audio production. I find interesting, and have considered myself, the various theories that link Missy and the 12th doctor's regeneration. Some say that the Doctor will renegerate into Missy or a Missy lookalike, others say that Missy will...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    A few buddies who got into Season play back in the winter would probably like to try this... except everyone would want to be a Necro and so the overall group dynamic is kinda blown with just the one new class. At least with the full expansion there was a lot of changes to the various existing...

    Star Trek: Discovery

    Well the are America's Most Watched Broadcast Network, so this gives them ample opportunity for hubris that removes them completely from competitive reality. Then again that distinction is about as dubious as being the leading door-to-door ice vendor in 1935

    Star Trek: Discovery

    Well... anyone who might have considered not pirating it originally is sure to do so now. I mean fuck them in the first place for having it on Netflix everywhere but the U.S. but if they figure they can just get an extra 1-2 months of subscription time** out of folks by inserting a 10 week gap...

    American Gods

    That really was perfect casting for Easter. Is this a slow burn? Yeah it is, but Gaiman is taking this opportunity to refine things and I'm A-OK with it. Oh and if Orlando Jones doesn't get at least a nomination for his turn as Mr. Nancy I may have to go smack a bitch.

    Olaf's Frozen Adventure (Frozen 2)

    Yeah its less of a 'short' and more of a 'minor feature' at that length. Especially when paired with a movie that has a 76 minute running time.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Okay 'Arms', what's the verdict here people? It seems like you need a second set of joycons to really get the most out of it so this would be a very expensive title to pick up...

    I've been keeping an eye on the supply that is hitting the market since I still get the daily email blast from my Realtor. There's been a real dearth of properties hitting the market since the start of June, so the 'spring selling season' is likely slowing down. With the supply drying up...

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    With the coming of original Xbox backward compatibility perhaps we will see a nostalgia push for Jade Empire. Jade Empire and Crimson Skies were two big titles on the original Xbox that surprisingly never got updates for the 360 and on.

    Trying to get things back on track: This week answers the question of what a Sweeney and Dead Wife Olde Tyme Variety Hour would look like, and it would be amazing. I actually found myself forgetting that Emily Browning was playing both roles as she did an excellent job with both. We also got...

    Interesting that they are doing that with the Artifact Knowledge. They must have realized that people were not logging in often enough to keep their AK research up-to-date.

    This market is indeed pretty freaking insane. It puts sellers and seller's agents in a very commanding position. They know that anything even remotely nice is going to go in that first bidding process and that if any hiccups come along during the sale they will be able to slide a new offer in...

    Just need to never return it... Set up shop on a decent sized planetoid and start cranking out industrial bits for everyone else outside a planetary gravity well.

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    After having her lug around that big techy-looking staff in TFA I was really hoping that Rey would be a dual-saber / light-staff wielder ala Maul / Satele Shan. Possibly also having her be more of a Jedi Consular than a Jedi Knight... but ah well.

    All things Brandon Sanderson

    Its June already and all we have to show for it is one novella included in a collection? Unacceptable! How dare he not put out at least 1 major new title every other month!!

    Voltron: Legendary Defender

    I am of two minds. It is indeed awesome that Netflix is behind this show 100% and that the quality of it is so incredibly high. The longer and more successful it is, the less likely the creators will be to go back for a 3rd generation of Avatar

    American Gods

    Reminds me that I haven't read 1984 in quite some time... I should revisit it. There are some iconic books that seem to take on new relevance and meaning as you enter different phases of life.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    The Chromie thing is just what was needed for filthy casuals that still have an element of semi-hardcore leanings. Between this and the old withered scenario from Suramar I think they have a very nice new content stream.

    Wait what? Copper has a lifetime of 20-25 years? Aren't there buildings well over a century old which have copper plumbing? I was speaking with someone who was boasting about how their pipes were 'reclaimed copper' that had previously been in use in some art deco building.

    It was less an income thing as these were very nice houses that were either new construction or complete down-to-the-studs remodels in much the same style as you see all over Somerville. It was more that I was being actively glared at by the other people viewing the home, the realtor, etc.

    I will say that when I was looking at houses earlier in the month I was always the only white person at every open house in Brockton. I actually looked at the 3rd house on the list above when it first hit the pre-market, it is definitely a place to show off.

    Destiny 2 - Clan Link 1st Post

    Wow it does look real purdy at high resolution on a PC (note that you need to make sure that YouTube is set to the max resolution your monitor can support otherwise you are just getting crappy 720p upscaled like mad) However I think most everyone I know, despite being PC gamers at their core...

    Wonder Woman (2017)

    You know if this was a Marvel movie that we'd have learned that Diana got preggers from that one-night-stand with Steve resulting in a post-credit scene of dropping the newborn girl off at house with 'Hinkley' on the mailbox.
