I occasionally had my game "freeze" when it was evident that the gameplay was still going. Alt-tabbing resolved it for me. Another thing that popped up for me was not being able to select units with my first mouse over. I'm not sure if that was my mouse or what.

Personally I have no interest in marriage until I'm stable career wise. I'd like my potential spouse to be in the same situation as well. The idea of getting married and having one of us sacrifice our career ambitions for a relationship that might not work out has always turned me off.

My biggest problem with the SC2 plot is all that the campaigns are focused on building up your forces rather than really trying to tell a story. I have no problem with units slowly being made available but I do have a problem when most of the missions sole purpose is to unlock other units and...

The Crosstour is literally just a hatchback version of the Accord. It even used to be called the Accord Crosstour until relatively recently. The only thing really different is the body. Then one thing I can say about crossovers like the Crosstour and the BMW X5 is that rear visibility is...

I had great difficulty finding a Kobo Glo online for the listed MSRP, almost every place listed it for like $10+ above. Best Buy has had it listed as "coming soon" since like October. Apparently the only places that carry it in the US currently are independent bookstores and Family Christian...

Unicorn 6 is finally out. It was such a tease since the final episode won't even come out for a year. I guess they're trying to make the 35th anniversary a big year since Gundam: The Origin comes out next year as well.

The first Tiger and Bunny movie is out now. It's unfortunately not a sequel and just a retelling of the first part of the series. It was still pretty good though. However I'm hesitant to compare it to the series at this point.

The main downside with the Nook is that its screen isn't as high a resolution as the Kobo Glo or Kindle Paperwhite. If it weren't for that, I probably would have picked one up. The idea of rooting the Nook and using it as a ghetto tablet has some appeal to me.

I got one of these recently and have been happy with it. It was a bitch to find though. I went with the Kobo Glo since it seemed to combine the best features of the Nook and Kindle.

I've seen some conflicting information on this. Like I just saw this one the other day: Fairy Tail Creator Mashima: Anime Is Not Over Yet

Definitely did not expect FT's Grand Magic Games to end so abruptly. Guess it's good they can finally move on to the underlying plot now. Sucks the anime is going on hiatus before the end of the games can be animated.

This is definitely true. The plains are what make cross country drives suck. I drove I-70 from KC to Denver the other day... 8 hours of absolutely nothing. I-80 at least follows a river and has some civilization along it. One thing to consider when driving in the eastern US, you can get...

I still can't figure out how they managed to omit so much critical background material in the second season. It's pathetic that a four episode OVA was even necessary to explain what the fuck was happening. With that said, I still think the series is worth watching even if it's just for some...

Season 2 was kind of weird if I recall. They had to release some bonus episodes on the DVDs just to explain some things. EDIT: Err was referring to Darker than Black: Gemini of the Meteor. Guess that'd be a sequel and not a season 2.

The Blood-C movie was pretty good. Italmostmakes up for how the series was a bullshit troll.

It's kind of meh. There are some laughs occasionally but most of the gags get overdone. They'll spend an entire episode on some of those gags. Plot is kind of slow as a result.

Gah, the Fairy Tail anime ends on the 30th. Guess that's better than shitting it up with filler.

I don't necessarily think the industry is moving the wrong direction. I do think it's way more risk adverse than it was in the past though. That's not too surprising given the cost of development. I would say there are more good games being released than ever before. It used to be that most...

Buggy was given the invitation right after the Whitebeard War. The implication was that it was for him to be a Shichibukai but it was never stated. So that probably means Buggy is still a massive poser.

Where I work currently, there are a few women that try to go out of their way to push the whole "work being a family" thing. Now I don't care about them being curious or showing concern, I have a problem when they try to make the office into something it's not. I don't feel that I should have to...

Am I the minority in that I rarely ever come back to play old games? I still have my collection from the previous generations intact but they just sit there. The drop in graphical quality is just too much for me to enjoy on an HDTV set.

Obviously no parties to be found at Mount Athos but that's a place I've always wanted to visit in Greece.

I'm actually quitting my job this week to do this. I've always had an interest in working abroad or in the federal government, so the Peace Corps made a lot of sense. Then I got placed in Europe working in my field, so it suddenly became a no brainer decision to leave my current local government...

This really depends on the game though. An open world game like Skyrim will have a noticeable graphics improvement. A shooter like Gears of War, not so much. The current generation is such a mixed bag on graphics that I think we'll just see the floor raise rather than a huge jump in overall...

This will be the first generation of consoles without a significant improvement in graphics. The previous generation of consoles could already display gorgeous games in HD. All this new generation will really do is allow for larger environments and more things happening on screen.

What's the deal with that monitor on the right? It looks totally strange to me. And yeah, I agree the screen size is way too big. I couldn't imagine having anything larger than ~30" and even that seems a bit large to me.

It's no doubt marketing but it is also true developers can get more from a console than a PC of similar specs. It's a lot easier to maximize performance when you're only dealing with one or two different hardware configurations.

The implication is that it will end in the next year or two. Kishimoto said he has decided on the ending and the series is moving quickly toward the climax. Although I don't think there's been a formal announcement of it like Bleach had.

You could easily make that argument in every previous console generation. With that said I think the consoles this generation will be more different from each other than in the last couple generations. Now you're not just buying a console, you're also buying an ecosystem and unique input device...

Oklahoma has some bullshit rules as to what constitutes a party. Then for someone to enter as an "independent" candidate, they need enough signatures to equal 2% of the previous election's total votes. Gary Johnson almost got in under another party name but then the secretary of state...

Legit methods, I don't know. I did see a HorribleSubs compilation of seasons 1,2, and 3 on NyaaTorrent when I was looking for a subbed version of the new movie though. As for the manga. Have to laugh how there was all this set up for the Ogra / Laxus fight then Ogra just gets fucking one...

How that's worded doesn't fill me with much confidence.

Guess it's no coincidence that the specs for the Kinect 2 leaked today.

So am I correct in believing that both Zanpaktous Ichigo has gotten so far have been acquired incorrectly?

Just a random question. Do you take your medicine then go to bed or do you continue doing other things till the medicine knocks you out? If it's the latter, it could be that you're stimulated just enough to not really feel the effects of the drug. Once you get through that initial phase of...

Then a few random ones I really like:

I'd consider myself a centrist. I definitely have no problems voting for either party. I think both parties bring good things to the table and help balance each other out when they compromise. Of course the big caveat is that I won't vote for the GOP in its current form after they ran out all...

Fairy Tail is another anime with great music. I'm still waiting on that 4th OST though.

Oh man, I could list a ton here. I'll start with the most recent OST I got. The SAO OST is most excellent.

It's not too surprising considering it was one of the last games designed with future computer specs in mind. Subsequent games have been held back so they'd have a chance of getting ported to consoles. I mean Crysis 2 even had inferior graphics to the first game for that reason.
