    Defiance (Syfy April 2013) TV Series and MMO

    http://www.aintitcool.com/node/61639 First 14 minutes of the show. Kind of interesting and I can definitely see kernels of Farscape in it.

    GMO, Monsanto, organic dreadlocked nonsense?

    If you do, make sure to bring up the trial in Texas. They seem to love patent trolls down there. "Your honor, I patented a method by which 2 hydrogen atoms combine with 1 oxygen atoms to create a substance I like to call "water". I am seeking eleventy trillion dollars in back royalties from...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    That's harder than it sounds, though. How do you gauge a good healer? By healing #s put out, or prevention of deaths? How much of a death is on the tank/DPS and how much actually on the healer? Conversely, how much is a tank dying due to their own fault or poor heals/DPS not doing their job...

    The Walking Dead

    Sure they can. A lot of those older cars, they just crack open the steering column, insert a screwdriver/blade and pull back on the piece that turning the key normally moved to start the car, and voila: car is good to go. That's what happened to mine. Until I got rid of it, I had to keep a...

    ...which would be doomed to failure w/o some type of gating mechanism, because you'd have scrubs queuing just to get a higher ilvl.

    The Walking Dead

    Older cars had that old metal antenaes and they are easy to steal/hotwire. I should know because I used to drive an 80s boat like that long ago and it was stolen twice. Police told me cars like that were basically ez-mode steals.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    LFR always struck me as something that was more for the benefit of people who used to raid, but didn't have the time anymore vs. the eternal casual market. I find many very casual players don't like raiding, regardless as to its difficulty.

    Revolution

    For scripted shows, it did well on NBC relatively. Much like Grimm: not the best ratings, but strong for NBC. Although Grimm is much more believable than Revolution ;p

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Nope, gold rush isn't it. I'd have to hunt for it, but they have stated they are still working on the dota map, which gives weight to the theory that it may actually be like a dota match.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    It's called Defense of the Alehouse. They haven't released any info beyond it being a dota-style BG. I'm hoping they actually make it like DOTA vs. AV on a dota-shaped map.

    What's wrong with the dial? It's actually a pretty creative usage of the materials on hand.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    For PVP, I hope the dota bg is like actual dota: You pick a canned hero with limited abilities. In theory they should be able to balance that.

    The Walking Dead

    Would have made more sense if it was a manual transmission and he had to jump start it, esp with an active car alarm that would have drained the battery. Don't really need a charged battery in that case (I should know, for about a half a week I had to drive a car /w a battery that ruptured and...

    GMO, Monsanto, organic dreadlocked nonsense?

    Organic unto itself may not be healthier by virtue of being organic, but organic produce more often than not tends to be fresher at the places that sell it. Fresher food is healthier, regardless as to whether it's organically grown or not. And ya, I have to deal with the "OMG GMO R EVIL!" on...

    Do any good video game movies exist?

    All 80s kid movies were dark. I mean look at Goonies ;P

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    There is still plenty of wiping on the new LFR content unless you have seasoned raiders running the show in it. You also can't have too much complexity because it's typically 25 random people who will pop in and out of the raid. Hard to refine raid mechanics if you have constant churn in your...

    Grimm

    Probably because people who lose memories and start to remember typically don't have full blown hallucinations on that scale ;P

    The Walking Dead

    The zombie marathon you're talking about is called "Run for your life" I think. Looks like fun. Last 4 episode summary? Andrea goes to prison and tries to make peace. She also finds Tyreese's group and sends them to Woodbury. They tell her hell no and say she should kill the Governor. She...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    They could always fit him in later. Doesn't Dany end up freeing the pit fighters when she takes the city? They could just make him one of the freed pit fighters and as a token of gratitude, he acts as a bodyguard. They have to do something to spice up the boring as shit post-book 3 Dany chapters.

    StarCraft 2

    Well, honestly they have been building towards this since Broodwar and the bonus mission where Duran reveals himself to be working for a higher power. It's not like it came out of nowhere, like the final boss in Final Fantasy 4(2 US).

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    MMOs, at their core, are about getting +betterer stuff. Whether it be LFR or "WTFISTHISOMFG" Hardcore, the principle is the same.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    This. When you think about it, even in the books we don't see much of Barristan fighting. If he does the champion vs. champion fight, it gives them a chance to show that he is still a badass, despite his age.

    DOTA 2

    Seriously. I pretty much just play AR. Sure, sometimes the other team has the RNG gods smile upon them in terms of hero picks/composition, but overall I think it evens out the playing field and forces people to try to find synergies. I also find a lot less rage in AR games, probably because...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    LFR is one of the few things keeping some players in the game. I'd rather play a lottery with LFR as to whether I get a fail raid or not vs. being in a fail guild that chain dies on normal raid attempts. At least with LFR, you don't feel bad about ditching the fail.

    StarCraft 2

    The point of the mercy scenes was to demonstrate that even though she went from more human-like to more zerg-like, she wasn't like the old QoB and more like human Kerrigan. Even Raynor had a hard time making the distinction between the two when he finds out that Kerrigan allowed herself to go...

    Grimm

    Cool episode...I like how he got Daredevil powers after the fly thing attacked him. Btw, the preview for next week: Seems like the writers or production people like Farscape, because the login name for the person was AerynSun ;P

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    They will probably do an Obi-Wan Kenobi with him...a hood that obscures his upper face so you can just see the lower part + all the facial hair at first, then do the full reveal by the end of the same episode. Dany won't know who it is, but the audience will know at that point. Gives the...

    Hearthstone

    Actually, this would have been cooler if they integrated it into WoW as well. Set up some card dens in cities, let players wager stuff if they want or have a chance to win ingame rewards, etc. WoW Pokemon worked out well, might as well do this in WoW as well.

    North Korea goes full retard

    I don't think NK would present the same problems as the Middle East in terms of insurgents. Historically, the country was more unified then it was now, whereas in the Middle East it has pretty much always been a conflict. That's not to say there wouldn't be issues...I imagine a huge chunk of...

    The Walking Dead

    EW.com posted some pics from the upcoming episode. Of interest, compare photo #2 with the giant spoiler photos that were posted by that poster earlier. EW photo itself isn't really much a spoiler. http://img2.timeinc.net/ew/i/2013/03...NG-DEAD-02.jpg Notice how where Daryl is kinda seems...

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    3d printing on an industrial scale will be big. The key to getting personal adoption of the tech, though, is usefulness. Right now all they can really do is plastic, so you're essentially limited to non-electronic products that will typically have low complexity. Even then, after the novelty...

    Continuum

    The T:TSCC version of time travel was essentially that the act of going back in time and changing anything created a new timeline, but did not destroy the old one. Essentially, time line A has a guy go back to 3/20/2013 and assassinate a person who will grow up to become an infamous terrorist...

    Being Human (US)

    They have fake blogs for the characters after an episode airs. Aiden's blog mentions that he only remembers blacking out after drinking tons of blood, but he has only been drinking the blood bags. This implies that whatever is causing this isn't Aiden. Hypothesis: Aiden is bring possessed...

    Good season so far. Sally needs to become a ghost again, but if she does then that necromancer gets her. Preview for next week seems like she might be sending FrankenRay after the crew. I wonder what she did with Nick and Stevie's souls...Sally keeps fucking those poor guys over ;p I felt...
