Oh yeah... That's him alright. Quite impressive and note we don't see what becomes of him. Of course it looks like we get the Red Hood for at least an episode coming up.qqw

That is out my backdoor here in Boston. Note that this is not any kind of dug-in carport or anything. Normally its a completely flat backyard and driveway with my patio and grill buried somewhere towards the back of the picture. Cleared the area around the backdoor to protect the glass and...

Speaking of a lack of Belle Reve...where the hell is Amanda Waller with all these metahuman nutjobs showing up? You would think this might fall under her purview and additionally she might salivate at the idea of a teleporter on her Suicide Squad.

Yeah the show does not belong on NBC. I know NBC wants to try and get the demographics of FOX and the CW and so are trying things like this but its just not working. Anymore the original networks are as pigeonholed as any other themed cable network and no amount of counter-programming is going...

It makes sense. Once upon a time Gawker and such were the scrappy underdogs of journalism coming out of that freaky new space called "teh intarwebz". Now that they have become the mainstream, or rather that the mainstream changed course to align with them, there is a lack of objectivity. News...

I do think there is room for better gaming journalism. Right now the population is so incredibly inbred that literally everyone seems to have worked with / for everyone else and furthermore only exist as means to put a spit-shine on a press release. I understand the situation where you can't...

I seem to be terrible with Chen. I wish his shield from drinking has a slightly longer duration. As it is I seem to just be drinking constantly and thus tank real well but need a partner to actually hit things.

I did like how the show wrapped up the season. By the end of the original order they seemed to have found their footing and be on the way to establishing a solid overarching story which was missing from the pilot and first batch of episodes. Move it to SyFy and give it the Hellblazer title and...

I dont know anyone that works at Daybreak, or at least I don't think I do. Either way I have no idea as to how talented their people are. I will say that they seem to have created lots of nice art and at least some game engine elements so I'm not really sure what else you really need to...

I really don't think there is an untapped market for progression WoW servers. Are there people who want such a thing? Certainly, but I wager that it is such a niche population that it may as well be non existent. Those indy progression type things mostly thrive as labors of love, I don't...

I had completely forgotten about the Fae (and the evil Fae) until it was just mentioned. I remember coming back to the game in a big way right around the time the Odus expansion was released because...well I've always liked Erudin. Anyway I recall thinking "why on earth would they make this...

There are a lot of Class of 90 people in the MMO community. I think it has something to do with being the right age for exposure to Diku Muds and subsequently EQ. Oddly enough some online/industry friends and I were talking about this very subject earlier today and how strange it seems that we...

Im curious when they are going to visit the whole "illegal prison full of superpowered humans located in the middle of the city" business. I mean how are they even feeding these people? You never see Cisco coming back with a huge box of Big Belly Burgers and carting them over to the detention...

That's the notion I had as well. I suspect it will be very much like a NWN module, but with the added interactive touch of having a real life person apply dynamic content. I wonder if it is more Evolve or more Dungeon Keeper

New Dungeons Dragons Game Sword Coast Legends Coming in 2015 - IGN So it looks like the 4v1 human controlled gameplay trend has reached Dungeons and Dragons. Makes very much sense in the context of the genre. I've been expecting this for some time really. Either from D&D or some other pen...

I like how next episode the present day is on the Island and the flashback is in Starling City.

Notice how the Quantum entangler thingy whatsit forms the basis for the Firestorm costumeNice way of incorporating some semi-iconic attributes to the outfit. Small easter egg was Barry's date plans to go see Mal Duncan at a Jazz club. Mal Duncan is Herald AKA Hornblower AKA Vox AKA a few...

Well they broke something badly... did a co-op game where we were on the other side (never had that happen before) and at the end it freaked out and said I needed to rejoin my game in progress and then proceeded to autoplay the whole game to "catch up" to the server... and at the end it replayed...

Cameron Monaghan is the kid they tapped to play The Joker and from what I can tell he has some talent from his work on Shameless and other roles. They seemed to start the season with "yeah Jim Gordon and kid batman and lets have Catwoman be a street urchin and maybe we'll get to episode 10...

Welp its gone now. Bioware decided to cancel development on the title and has transitioned the people at Bioware Austin to support other games including DA: Inquisition post launch support, Mass Effect series and "big stuff" for SWTOR later this year as part of the Episode 7 lead up.

This is suitably terrible. Someone must have promised Billy Zane they would expunge every remaining copy of The Phantom if he agreed to do this.

I teach a physics class in the evenings that has one lecture day on Wednesday and labs on Monday. So far this semester the lecture has met twice and the lab has never met. Classes were cancelled again tonight and next Monday is a holiday! The only saving grace is that at least I have had the...

Did Ruhkmar in a PUG this morning and it was gloriously terrible. A victory was pulled out in the end, but only due to extreme dedication and fighting nearly on top of a graveyard. Such delightful chaos and amazement as people completely fail to handle the add phoenixes with anything...

Looks like next week is the big Firestorm episode. I wonder if he will continue to be recurring? Lord knows he's got plenty-o-power

The only disadvantage, such as it is, is that you really do only need to do your daily quest each day. Playing beyond that doesn't help too much excepting when you are getting each new hero up to level 5 and for just shits n giggles. Like right now I kinda want to play some more because trying...

So an Age of Ultron prequel comic is now out and details how Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch get their powers. Turns out it is just as simple as the ending to Cap 2 made it seem : Baron Von Strucker is using Loki's staff to 'unlock' potential within Miracles. I really thought they were going...

I enjoy the way this one is set up. Personally every time I tried a MOBA before I was lost more by the "what the hell items do I buy?" bit more than anything else. The levelling talent system in Heroes of the Storm is just the right balance between simplicity and customization for me. That...

Playing Asmodan on Co-Op (yeah yeah whatever I enjoy it) is a lot of fun. Especially on Cursed Mines when you can use your death beam on the golem. I find his abilities to be quite handy even though he isn't terribly great at a direct conflict.

LFR was that... but it isn't anymore. People were running Normal Mode PUGs and clearly BRF on the first day. Simply delaying one week would eliminate any chance of an LFR-untouchable from seeing anything first. Do you honestly think that people who are running Normal need a 7 week head start...

First wing for LFR is delayed two weeks, wing two comes out a week later. The delay for the third wing is two weeks after wing 2 and the final boss is two weeks after wing 3. Which brings us to the end of March , 7 weeks in all. Keep in mind that all of this delay is just for ilevel 650...

The thing is that Normal really isn't progression per se since they neutered Raid Finder into oblivion and then applied a ridiculous release schedule for it. I was okay with Raid Finder being delayed a week so that people doing hard modes could get the visceral feel that first week, but two...

That program is the precursor to the one that creates Black Widow. But yeah same basic schtick. That kid is too old to be Natasha though. I do like what they are doing with Howard Stark to bridge the gap between WW2 and the present day. Obviously as we get further and further from the 1940s...

Ahh apparently back in October they said that Atom would NOT have shrinking powers on Arrow because they did not feel the need for superpowers clouding up that show. Makes sense given that it was originally Blue Beetle they wanted to do until DC said "nope!" at the last minute and suggested Ray...

Im starting to wonder if Atom will actually shrink... So far in the show the mentions of miniaturization has been in the context of taking the O.M.A.C. tank type gear and shrinking it to use on the A.T.O.M. suit.

That's a pretty damn good looking Grodd...that and they are doing some pretty cool things with the Firestorm effects as well. I noticed that CW did not have any new DC properties in their list of announced pilots a couple days ago. Perhaps they aren't going to spin anything off quite yet, or...

Heavens to murgatroid... Diablo is awful. I had seen people talk trash about him of course but I had no idea he was so very sad.

Looking at the premade group finder makes me sad. Most of them are "Fresh BRF ... KNOW FIGHTS!!" or "Make sure you've watched vids!!" Absolutely no interest in learning new content, merely regurgitating the choreography they find on YouTube.

Morena Baccarin coming in as medical examiner would be cool, certainly she's leaps and bounds better than Babs.

How much of that $52M loss is a true money spent - money earned and how much is the result of a charge SoE paid to Sony for marketing or promotional considerations or whatever? Remember this is the entertainment industry with their own very bizarre ways of accounting. Hell even in the normal...

Just been trying Nazeebo today since I reached level 12. Pretty damn powerful, he's a lot of fun.
