    Sunset Overdrive - The game that will establish Xbox One as the #1 2nd place console

    Soooo This comes out in a week. I honestly had not paid much attention to it of late due to the combination of Destiny and Borderlands the Presequel but it does seem to have quite a bit of that Ratchet and Clank type Insomniac charm (especially with the grind paths and animation style). I...

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    They seem to be trying to out-Avengers Marvel/Disney. "Oh you made a bunch of movies and then brought them together into a mega hit? Well fuck you! We'll put the whole DC Universe into our first picture!!" It also seems pretty clear that they continually evolved their storyline and scope...

    Transformers 4: Baylicious

    I had nothing better to do so I Redboxed this movie tonight. I had heard already that the Dinobots were barely in the thing and didn't even speak so I wasn't expecting much out of this film... That having been said there were at least 5 different plots in this movie, some of which were in...

    The Legend of Korra

    Soooo spirit vine = uranium? I get the feeling that nothing good is going to come of Varrick's experimentation. Also of note is that Republic City is the nexus of spirit vine for the whole world (probably because of the Raava Vaatu showdown that took place in the harbor) so at some point she...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Well the Garrison mine does provide you with enough minerals to do the various daily cooldowns from both professions and your Garrison workorders so you should be good. What I don't really see, though, is any way to market the results of your tradeskill to anyone unless they are of the type who...

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    Oh sheesh well given how heavily PSN pushed the digital version of Destiny I would guess a large number of people went that route...

    Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    She has had a damn long career. I actually remember seeing her on As the World Turns (yeah yeah my grandma watched it every day) as the half-vietnamese daughter of one of the main characters back in the 80s.

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    That is very surprising given how PSN specific most commentary I've seen is. Not just here, but elsewhere as well. Did that many people buy PS4 bundles?

    Borderlands - The Pre-Sequel

    I have problems with pacing and quick travel. I keep getting to a point where I'm overloaded with guns that I want to take back to the donation box but have no easy quick travel points to do so. I also am.having a devil of a time determining whether a gun is an upgrade or not since there are...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Having finished up the quest series and progression to level 100 on the Beta server I can honestly say, without spoiling anything, that not a god damn thing happens plot-wise. While I did not care for much of Cataclysm I have to admit that the places you go and the process of levelling up...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Yeah they got rid of moving while casting lightning bolt. Shame really as it added some nice flavor. I managed to get 9 Titan Runes to drop today and finished up the cloak in short order. The Celestials are a total joke now (used a warlock pet to tank) and I think I spent more time flying...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Running LFR SoO to finish out the cloak quest on my Mistweaver and it really is sinking in how repetitive the "Iron Horde" feels after a year+ of the "True Horde" who have the same overall art style and various flavorings. Warlord Zaela, Blackfuse Goblins, freaking Garrosh... its all so very...

    Arrow

    Well this mystery makes more sense given the reaction right before the shooting in episode one.

    Borderlands - The Pre-Sequel

    Stingray is indeed superior to the buggy, plus you can have four of them out in a multiplayer game which helps with those annoying timed quests. (Which are already much easier with several players) Looks like The Baroness is a DLC character that was datamined from beta code on Steam. If...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Yeah healing on the Mistweaver, especially now that they eliminated reforging, is a colossal pain in the ass. Im tossing out Surging Mists like they were tic tacs while spreading all the other mists around and its just not healing for much. Heaven forfend if one of the dps gets hurt in a way...

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    I wonder how many people do the raid versus a near unending chain of traded checkpoints right before Atheon? I've never done either since... Xbone. I feel as if the Xbone really is the ginger of this console generation.

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    From what I can tell they have either a) come up with some bitching new compact magnets or b) refined and modified the geometry even more than a spherical tokamak to achieve a very high "beta" (ratio of plasma pressure to magnetic pressure) and thus a lower energy very compact design. If you...

    Borderlands - The Pre-Sequel

    There is admittedly a LOT more Mario Skillz to this one. They fully embrace the three dimensional nature of low gravity plus Oz kit jetpacking. I find myself OCDing in a big way in each area trying to get places.

    Borderlands - The Pre-Sequel

    I do like that the Elpis characters have Aussie accents since the game was, ya know, made by Australians. Especially funny when Janey Springs is trying to communicate with you by adopting a southern accent so you can understand her.

    The Flash

    Both shows (Flash and Arrow) seem to be heavily mining the New 52 for villains this week, both opting for characters that did not exist 5 years ago. Was a little shocked to see Simon Stagg get offed. Barry needs some combat training stat.

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    The Vex Mythoclast change mystifies me. The weapon only drops in the HM raid correct? It is meant to be a progression weapon for the hard mode raiding heading into the next zone. It should be nicer than the other stuff. Change the ruleset for PVP if you need to...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    They did talk extensively, on the posts about the raid changing, about being consciously aware of the mathematical inflection points in the MoP flex scaling and had really worked hard to eliminate that.

    Marvel Universe stuff

    Something like Inhumanity (global release of Terrigen mists) triggers exponential growth in the number of super powered "Gifted" humans. Perhaps this is territory they will cover in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. especially as most "Gifted" types seem to be dangerous. Then at least you could have an...

    Marvel Universe stuff

    I really don't see how they can do Civil War without there being a broader base of heroes in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The core point of contention is the registration act and the question of government sanctioned superhumans vs. secret vigilantes. Right now the only superhuman heroes...

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    My dualshock controller has had sticking problems with the shoulder buttons which required some cleaning to correct. Very small particulate seemed to cause it to jam up easily. Never had it happen with an older controller so it might be a manufacturing process issue with the dualshock 3...

    Star Wars Rebels

    Yeah I caught that as well. Very Star Toursy with the shuttle craft including the layout and the pilot of the thing. They have next week's episode up on DisneyXD online. For older fans of the original trilogy you may recognize something from next week's episode...

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    I suspect Icebreaker will have a nerf headed down the pipe shortly. I dont think it was an accident that Suros Regime landed on Xur while they were data collecting for the Auto Rifle changes. Putting a best-in-class example of a given weapon into as many hands as possible is the best way to...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Well in any reasonable situation there would be a fairly linear and altogether moderate increase is power as a function of ilevel. However players LIKE getting crazy powerful from upgrades and so keeping a pseudo exponential increase in power is a powerful market retention tool. Requiring...

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    So the whole point of the Suros Regime, what with the significant rate of fire reduction when zoomed etc., was that it was an Auto Rifle that had the stability to be used as a Scout Rifle when zoomed. Significantly lowering the crit multiplier on Auto Rifles and crippling the stability kinda...

    Turtle Beach and Astro both make wireless headphones w/mic and you can use the stereo headset adapter for the Xbone (sold separately: Link:Amazon.com: Xbox One Stereo Headset Adapter: Video Games) to attach these to the controller and pipe both game and chat audio through the headphones...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    The kick-in-the-teeth is not necessarily removing the combat bonuses for professions, but making them completely worthless as a whole. People love the fuck out of transmog shit, so why aren't their Tailoring and Blacksmithing transmog items? 'Enchants' that offer visual effects or perks that...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    The sort of baffling thing is that you really don't want your own profession shop in your garrison. The return on workorders is pretty low and the benefits provided by the shops are mostly redundant with your own skill. So instead of being a master tailor / enchanter who set up his own...

    Borderlands - The Pre-Sequel

    But but... high fives!! Borderlands is absolutely a game to be played with friends. It is entertaining on its own, but adding in buddies to the game plus voice chat increases the enjoyment exponentially.

    Listening to my buddy who is ranting about how Icebreaker is crap compared to his older purple weapon. Its painful listening to him.
