That was fun, but it might prove costly for the Pacers.

Feedback comes to mind.

The quality of the movie as far as I am concerned will be directly proportional to Gal Gadot's screen time. So what's the score a_skeleton_03?

The fascist party in Greece is doing quite well!

It should be noted that being booed at Cannes happens often and is rarely indicative of the quality of the film and of the awards it might get. Famously, Maurice Pialat won the Palme d'Or for 'Sous le soleil de Satan' (Under The Sun of Satan) and he was copiously booed by the public present at...

Your scenario is not without merit, but it only considers half the equation. The other half is gamers and retailers. Retailers that make their money on used games will never try to sell a machine with a 'no used game' policy. You can bet that every single vendor at GameStop will get a $100 bonus...

That will not be helpful, but the first thing that sping to my mind is a part from an art house french film called 'Adieu'. There are multiple storylines in the movie, but one of them follows an illegal immigrant from Northern Africa who writes letters to his daughter. In a couple of them, he...

I suspect the secret dream of the marketing team that chose this name is that people would call it 'The One.'

There is a number of ways to easily use excess power, especially when you consider how straight forward the PS4 architecture appears to be. Anti aliasing, draw distance, texture filtering, resolution, frame rate...

She said something like 'I killed a lot of lambs, not one ever saw the blade' that was so ominous it was not possible for Stannis to not think 'Wait a second here? Am I a lamb too?'

It's half the story though. Joffrey's lineage is just a good pretext to try and overthrow him and put Stannis' mind at ease (I am not being power hungry, I am being righteous! I only want the throne because I am its legitimate owner!). In the end, the King is the guy that can be and stay King...

All this Free City stuff made take a stroll on the TV Show's wiki and I realized something: there is still a viable and non-insane heir to the throne for the Lannister/Baratheon: Tommen Baratheon, the other son of Cersei. It really makes you wonder how Joffrey the loose cannon is still alive...

You are thinking of Jaqen H'ghar. If you remember, H'ghar had a very peculiar third person way of speaking that Daario does not share. That said we also know the assassin that once assumed the persona of Jaqen H'ghar has an almost magical ability to transform his appearance, so him changing his...

It was madeinJapan, butforAmerica. It was designed as a stepping stone for players unfamiliar with jrpg, so one could say it's a proto-jrpg. There are some Final Fantasy that have not be mentioned in this thread I believe though: Final Fantasy Legend I, II & III on GameBoy (that are actually...

Harrenhall is on Tully territory, at least it was before the current rebellion. As for Robb, I don't think he wants to become King of the 7 Kingdoms, he just wants to get his sisters back, avenge the death of his father and make sure the south will be ready when Winter comes. This makes me...

Heresy! I'll agree that Owen Wilson is a bit of a one-trick pony acting-wise, but he is the best at that particular trick. There is a 'fallen from the moon' lightness, an optimistic enthusiasm and a gentleness mixed with a kind of melancholy, a barely visible sadness, a chink in the soul. All...

I don't think the guy who designed the PS4's architecture (who was interviewed in a Gamasutra article linked near the beginning of the thread) speaks japanese.

Judging by the size of the drive opening, I would say about the same size or slightly larger than the first batch of PS3, but more massive as it is a monolith.

You should not play a game where you can only lose. Unless it's Tetris.

The EyeToy was a $30 accessory by itself and it was bundled for $40ish with EyeToy: Play. They sold more than 10 millions EyeToy cameras in the world. Cost and attach rate were not an issue. The tech was obviously a lot more rudimentary than today's Kinect, but it was possible to work around the...

This cannot be right. You would think that with all the Web 2.0 / social media craze these companies would have hired a couple sociologists and that subsequently they would be consulted on the impact of design on the social practices related to their products. Being able to lend and borrow is...

A good effort, but I am not overly impressed by this list. Eye of Judgment is certainly an interesting use of the device (card reading and augmented reality), but it's more of an enhancement to board games than to video games. It's possible to have the exact same gameplay without the camera...

I played III on DS for a bit and it is a miserable game at just about every level (haphazard plot and opaque leveling system being the worst offenders), so it's no great loss. Come to think of it... I never played II, but considering I is pretty bare bone and III is a trainwreck, my motivation...

Please list some.

Personally I have no idea why they are putting these Kinect and PS Eye / Move in these consoles. These things sell as novelty gadgets with lame software and then no one is able to make a decent game using them (that would not be better with a regular control scheme). No one could with the Eye...

My understanding is that she probably could with the King's bastard.

Does the Wii Vitality Sensor ring a bell? No? Well maybe because:Nintendo "Didn't Know What To Do" With The Wii Vitality Sensor

Itisexciting for the people that will sell this data to advertisers as a feedback for the reception of their commercials...

You'll not get paid often if you are known to switch side after a contract is signed (as mentioned by one of the late bosses). For all intents and purposes, to side with Dany is to go from mercenary to soldier. A change that is unlikely to suit everyone. On a side note, Daario really wanted...

On a completely different note, I find it a bit odd that both the Wii U and the Xbox One have totally unassuming designs. They are anonymous boxes, just like they feared potential customers could be ashamed to have a console under their TV... a strange message to send really.

Or Microsoft not rich enough!

I thought that at first too, but then I remembered she had a scene at work post hospital in the last episode: her saving the head of the insufferable suck up that was (with a motive or not) nice to her.

As Megan noted in the previous episode, when you work in a TV show, you can still ask for vacations and have the writer work around it. That's probably what happened with Dawn and Joan. Also note that the 'agency on speed' storyline could not really work with her around considering she has the...

If I were a mercenary, I am not too sure I would be ok with seeing one of my three bosses slaughter the other two, have us jump ship and turning us into a regular army for some wandering chick from a far away land. The natural order of things would rather be the emergence of a new boss from the...

We'll see how the execution works, but the concept has potential!

I just remembered another one: there is an episode of Dream On where Brian Benben's character gets blinded and as a result visualize the other characters through movie clips (which is a step further than usual use of comic punctuation), with his secretary being a grotesque dinosaur. I failed at...

This will probably never happen unless Yasumi Matsuno somehow works with Square-Enix again.

That did not last long. Federer played a good first game, throwing a couple winning serve and volleys in there for good measure, played a decent return game after than, but Nadal hitting his backhand very aggressively, managed to fend him off. After that, it was basically all Nadal for an...

The refs did not help, but it's not like the Knicks played a great fourth quarter.

Two cabbit one cup.
