    Pokemans and how to catch them with your phone - friend codes in OP

    I see no reason why they would change it. I'm not a pokemon fanboy but they've developed a really structured combat system that is simple enough for young kids to understand and complex enough for older gamers to enjoy. My initial reaction to the post above is funny at second blush though...

    Fallout 4

    FO4 being a survival sim would make a great game, but I agree it'd be a dumb move. Bethesda makes world-exploration games and FO4 should be no different. As long as they have the same level of modability as FO3 had, it will be made into a survival game when I play it a second time a year or two...

    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    Derek Smart has the same problem Utnayan has. They are biased and chosen their stance. They then spout whatever bullshit they think people will believe. A reasonable person shouldn't listen to whatever they have to say because his motivation and foundation is dishonest. Does that mean that he...

    Pokemans and how to catch them with your phone - friend codes in OP

    Cool idea. I wonder how the pokemon wod be separated. Ex: does each state have its own set of pokemon? Or will they make it so you can only catch them in parks? Edit: Actually watched the video. I agree with Brand, would be a great game to explore locations with kids. Would be funny thought...

    Ah, I didn't realize that the escapist was now a shitty gaming journal that would publish Derek Smart tripe. To answer ahead, I bought zero ships. I have a $50 ticket to beta or something I bought very early on.

    Nightcrawler (2014)

    I didn't enjoy Drive and thought it was a completely different film. I don't watch a lot of suspense/thriller/horror films. What other good films are there that portrayed the kind of textbook psychopath like Lou was? Taxi Driver comes to mind. American Psychopath is similar but much...

    Fallout 4

    I vaguely remember them saying there'd be a hardcore mode, but I think it's reasonable to expect it. It was widely popular in FO3 as a mod to the point of it being obligatory in FONV. If you enjoy these games as immersive experiences it's an easy improvement to make. However, it only works as...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I think that's a good assumption. Though, showing a woman who is (within the universe) hyped up to be one of the most beautiful women in the seven kingdoms but is obviously on the downward slope to becoming another older matriarch and exposing that fact to everyone in King's Landing would add a...

    let me break it down for the nerds: It wasn't helpful when you knew that yeah, that group of dudes over there with the metal armor and spiky hair are hostile. And that giant radscorpion has mega-armor so you better switch to armor piercing rounds, and those oversized wasps? Put down the fly...

    What's interesting about the android discussion is that one of the best mods for FONV turned you into a cyborg with a rich implant system. Project Nevada at Fallout New Vegas - mods and community The best part of it for me was the vision mods that gave you night vision, infrared vision and...

    That's true, but the key driver behind my opinion is that the dude who enjoys spending his free time configuring his Gentoo distribution and recompiling his kernel to support his music visualization tool is going to find a bunch of stuff interesting that the guy who plays lacrosse probably...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    It's just my experience that dudes who don't have technical hobbies aren't going to be the dudes who dig deep and really tear into challenging technical issues. Like I said there's nothing wrong with guys who went to CS in college because that was popular and they make a solid effort every day...

    Fallout 4

    Good theorycrafting. I wonder if you're an android based on alien tech and you need to kill other similar androids to collect their sparks which enable you to do robo-yells. If you collect them all they transform into the AllSpark and you become the RobotLander.

    The flip side to that is that from my experience someone who is super passionate about non-technical interests is less likely to be the guy to really pour himself into a problem, work a lot of hours, solve problems over the weekend etc. There's nothing wrong with dudes coming in and putting in a...

    No, we can't. Allegedly they are still looking for work and their major is in our field though. It was actually easier than I thought to weed them all down. Once I looked at the resumes there were some very specific things I can't go into that were missing from 70% of them. Of the remaining...

    I actually like that idea and wouldn't mind seeing my company try it out. I think finding a suitable project that is useful, generic enough to not require a week+ of training/learning time to be effective and able to be given out would be hard though. But look on the bright side from your...

    I was just given a stack of 34 resumes from soon-to-be graduates with a MS from a top university. The university is far enough away that the cost to bring them in for an in person interview is high. None of the students personally applied, we just got the stack from their academic dept in...

    Fallout 4

    Yeah and that's not because of a lack of effort. They try pretty hard to make the content of each quest attainable in a variety of different ways. But with the massive freedom the player has and the large number of quests you inevitably have these broken ones, especially at release for a game...

    Fallout 4

    I know what it's trying to do, it just didn't have much bite. The only reason I nitpick is because Fallout3 came out as a magnificent game that followed a well written Fallout1 (I didn't play FO2). Bethesda, known more for their world building than their writing, continued that reputation...
