    Anything worth buying a PS4 over?

    Yeah, I bought a PS4 at launch and it's barely been on for more than a total of 10 hours. I don't regret it, though, games are coming. BUT if money is tight I wouldn't bother right now. My PS3 still gets a lot of use, though. Lots of good games out there to play and the graphics aren't...

    Dark Souls

    God damn, I forgot about that section. Ugh, I really don't want to replay through all of that. It's funny, I've played Dark Souls on and off for the past, what? 2 years, get stuck on an area, finally get passed it, and hit a brick wall again. Those archers were a pain in the ass. The bosses...

    Dark Souls

    All this talk of Dark Souls II makes me want to go back and complete the first one. I bought Dark Souls when it first came out and just rolled my own character and just randomly went with stats and weapon choices. Game got annoyingly difficult late in the game and I gave up at the multi-King...

    Continuum

    How was season 2? I watch about half of season 1 before losing interest.

    SyFy network admits they fucked up

    I don't think there's necessarily anything wrong with Syfy's current programming. They have (or had) quite a few science fictiony shows post Stargate and BSG: Warehouse 13, Haven, Defiance, Sanctuary, etc. The problem is that they aren't very good. Granted they aren't absolute drek, but...

    British TV Comedies

    Stumpled upon this a couple years ago. I thought it was pretty funny: BBC Two - Psychoville

    Monicas we love

    Actually, no, I haven't. But "Monica" sounds nothing like "My American Inventor", no matter how quickly it's said or slurred. Dumb.

    Monicas we love

    Yeah, still not getting it.

    Falling out of love with gaming

    I play games because everything else is boring or too much work.

    Rick and Morty

    Wow, the end of "Rick Potion #9" was some fucked up shit.

    Grimm

    Seriously. In fact, I think the series might work better as a 12 episode summer run.

    HDTVs

    What is everyone's opinion on ordering a TV from a online retailer like NewEgg or Amazon? My main concern, of course, is if the unit is damaged during shipping or just defective. Do either of these guys offer free RETURN shipping? I do not cherish the idea of shelling out $50+ shipping it back.

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    If you want to learn the Microsoft stack, then C# is fairly easy to learn (you could go VisualBasic if the C syntax looks weird). Tons of good books out there and Visual Studio is the best IDE out there.

    What vehicle do you drive?

    I wanted a decent daily driver and had been looking around for a low-mileage Civic or something. I couldn't find a damn thing that wasn't already close to the price of something new. So, I settled on a 2014 Ford Fiesta. I demand a manual tranny so I had to special order the car. I placed the...

    Vikings

    I never understood why Ragnar kept going on-and-on about wanting a son when he already had one? He cheated on his beautiful bad-ass wife with that whore princess, so I am less than happy with the fellow.

    HDTVs

    This has probably been answered somewhere in this thread, but I'm too lazy to search, so... I bought a PS4 but the TV I have is only 720p, so looking to upgrade to 1080p. What's the opinion on Plasma vs. LED LCD for video games? Any recommendations for either? Looking for something in the...

    South Park Stick of Truth

    I'm buying it for the PS3. It's not like the game requires high-end graphics processing.

    King of the Nerds

    Debate. Star Trek vs. Star Wars. It was actually pretty entertaining.

    Heroes Reborn

    Did the original series have any sort of conclusion? I stopped watching somewhere in season 2.

    The LEGO Movie

    Yeah, great movie. I loved the names of the "artifacts". "Bring me the Sword of Exact Zero!" Although the ending made me think back toThe Incredibles: "If everyone is Super, no one will be."

    King of the Nerds

    Yeah, but she was looking mighty fine in that black dress. Oh, and Star Trek > Star Wars.

    Computer Issues

    I installed Linux Mint Debian as my main OS -- everything has been working great EXCEPT web browsing is starting to piss me off. The problem is that, at times, pages won't load completely. A page will load partially then you'll get the spinny-icon and you either have to hit refresh or just...

    Irrational Games being shut down

    Infinite left a sour taste in my mouth so I honestly do not care about Irrational or Mr. Levine. As for those losing their jobs -- if they are talented they'll have no problems finding new ones.
