Or look at GTA 5. How much extra money has anyone put into GTA 5?

Maybe...and just stick with me here, but maybe WWE should have just had Bryan win the fucking Royal Rumble.

Did they say what disease his brother has? He's obviously gone crazy, thinking electromagnetic interference is making him worse, but I didn't catch if they said what he has or not.

I disagree. Based on how much I've enjoyed L4D2 I'd be perfectly willing, however, to plunk down my $60 if I knew that it would entitle me to all relevant add-ons in the future, just like my purchase of L4D2 on release day entitled me to all the new/remade maps and game modes released over the subsequent years. I worry that my $60 will only entitle me to getting nickel-and-dimed as I get involved in a Evolve community and find myself arguing that I need to spend a few more bucks here and there just to keep up with the rest of my gaming friends. Hey, we'll see what happens. I'm a patient man, I can certainly wait to see what the initial response is and how things progress between now and the Steam Summer Sale. I still have Witcher 3 to look forward to in the meantime - now THERE'S a developer who knows how to install confidence in their customer base, all DLC is free, even massive upgrades as were done for Witcher 1 and 2. My Polish game devs doing me proud.

When I'm talking about the grind, I'm talking about "mastering" abilities or whatever it's called.

I also wish I hadn't preordered off of PSN. I didn't know about the DLC stuff until I started reading about it in here.

They basically replaced Mark with Chris and Ben, which is about as massive of an upgrade as you'll see in a TV show.

Dude, you're fine, but do you see the problem where you go from "THIS GAME IS GREAT! YOU'D BE A FOOL TO NOT PRE-ORDER" to "MOST DISAPPOINTING GAME OF MY LIFE!" Like, that kind of leap shouldn't be possible. Ever. It also doesn't matter if it's good. Left 4 Dead was good. A fucking chicken sandwich from Chik-fil-a is good. We've surpassed the point where a game should be merely good. Naimark is right. You'll be penalized for thinking $60 is going to be enough, which it honestly isn't. $60 gets you an incomplete game. At least with Destiny, $60 was enough to get you a fairly long campaign, even if it was repetitive and boring, strikes, a raid, and the Crucible. $60 for Evolve gets you a game with two modes and a grind that sounds like it's more frustrating than Destiny's. It's beautiful looking, and I'm sure the gun play is competent, but there isn't enough out of the box to justify the cost for what is basically a 5 player multiplayer shooter that has a Hunt and Evacuation mode. In a day and age where something like DotA 2 is free, it's a whole bunch of bullshit to not only charge $60 for a base game, which is a console games thing, sure, but also emphasizes the necessity of purchasing overpriced DLC.

Maybe we'll finally get that Helter Skelter album...

Pretty much. I got goosebumps just from the music alone. Honestly, I think if the quality of the movie is good enough, I can get past the actors looking nothing like the people they're portraying.

Loved the premiere of Better Call Saul. Felt SO good to be back in that universe. Also dug the hell out of the reveal at the end. This should be a really fun ride.

*sigh*

I can't believe I'm going to pre-order this fucking thing. My friends and I are a little burned out on Destiny, so we got to talking about what should we play next and they're all dead set on Evolve. I tried reminding them over and over again that we did this before with L4D and that lasted us a few weeks. Whatever. Maybe it will be good.

Wow, Goldberg was a huge dick during that interview. I think that's just his personality, though.

Watched Chef tonight and it was great. Like, really, really great. Jon Favreau did an amazing job. Can't wait to watch it again. If I gave it a rating, I'd go something like 8 or 9 out of 10.

I thought that was fairly obvious. And like Brian said, the director's cut is awesome.

My friends and I had a discussion yesterday about whether or not people were getting smarter or dumber or had plateaued. I argued that people were getting smarter. Stories like that make me question things a bit...

Wow

Me too. I think he'll be a star someday. Maybe not the face of the company or anything, but he should occupy the top of the card. I said it before, but he reminds me a lot of Edge when Edge first started. Similar body type, but Corbin uses more power moves. Corbin has the same mystique too. In fact, fuck it, just ape Edge's vignettes that used lyrics from Nine Inch Nails songs when it's time to bring up Corbin.

Every episode is about a different Link.

You need two pieces. You need something to break the encryption and rip the content on Blu-rays and then something to encode the Blu-ray rip into a smaller format. You're not going to find something terribly good like that off of Amazon. You'll want MakeMKV for the rip and then Handbrake for the encode.

Nope. I'll tell you what you will get, though! I guarantee that you will get at least one episode each season that has a song in it sung by Katey Sagal. Maybe it will sound all minstrel-y!

And of fucking course Katey Sagal is in it. That part is not a joke.

lololol that's cute.

Bloody Elbow has a short article regarding Joe Rogan's comments about Dana White wanting there to be a point deduction for eye pokes, which I totally agree with. Obviously, Jon Jones gets mentioned in the article and in the comments. Someone in the comments seriously asks if Jones has ever eye poked someone in a fight.
