  1. General Video Game Deals Thread

    On the topic of Humble, there's also a Sid Meier bundle that's pretty sweet.
  2. Comics Extravaganza - Pow Bang Smash!

    I usually buy single issues digitally and read them on ComicRack, ogns and trades I'll buy physically if it's something I actually care enough about to have on my shelf. As far as Comixsology specifically I think it's fine, but I don't use any of the smart reading stuff so for me anything that shows me pages is going to have roughly the same functionality.
  3. Comics Extravaganza - Pow Bang Smash!

    I big part of it is that they all have hair while all the male characters just have fur for the most part. There are a couple female characters that don't just look like humans with cat ears, the first that comes to mind is this old lady, but for the most part they pretty much just look like humans with cat ears. By the way that volume, the one just called "Blacksad" is a collection of the first three French volumes. there's also the fourth one out called "A Silent Hell" and if I'm not mistaken the fifth volume was released in English a month or two ago.
  4. Movie/TV recommendations

    I feel like Sherlock jumped the gun way to fast, they could have had a few more seasons like the first one before they went whole hog like they did. At this point I'm assuming it will be a year or two before season 4 and I don't really think I'll miss it in the meantime.
  5. Non-video games

    It's neither of those things, he's just terrible at making up his mind about anything.
  6. Movie/TV recommendations

    I think I've reached the point where I'm going to cancel my television service and go full streaming. Between Amazon Prime, Netflix, and Hulu Plus I've noticed I pretty much only ever watch stuff via my Roku nowadays and never really watch stuff from Dish Network which is costing me around $100 a month.
  7. Non-video games

    I have a friend who is super slow at deciding what to do in games (and in life, going to restaurants with him is a chore) and it's making playing games every week with my friends less enticing. Edit: He killed Pandemic for all my friends. We played a single game of it and it will literally never be played again now.
  8. Amateur Game Making Night

    I'd be down to get in on this, I can help with anything audio related. Edit: as well as normal games making stuff.
  9. Comics Extravaganza - Pow Bang Smash!

    Stuck Rubber Baby. Wow, what a book.
  10. Show me your desk/gaming space

    You don't like Mario Kart?
  11. DOTA 2

    Okay she's been nerfed, she used to basically get free first blood every game.
  12. DOTA 2

    I hated Phoenix in WC3, I don't know if she's been nerfed in the patches since then.
  13. Conspiracy; Open your eyes sheeple

    This was better than anything in The Number 23.
  14. Movie/TV recommendations

    Paul Dano would have made me so excited, I love him. I also think Tom Felton would have been a good Quicksilver since he has the lanky build of a runner plus he already has the hair.
  15. Relaxing games recommendations

    Godus was mentioned, though I haven't tried it yet, but I'll add games like Roller-coaster Tycoon or Tropico
  16. Movie/TV recommendations

    My main problem is the hair. Edit:Wait is that the kid from American Horror Story? I accidentally zoomed in on my phone and suddenly saw a resemblance, though I could be totally wrong.
  17. Relaxing games recommendations

    Anything by That Game Company
  18. DOTA 2

    6.8 looks rad
  19. Movie/TV recommendations

    Bill Cosby is one rad dude in I Spy
  20. Video Game mechanics to retire

    But regenerating health happens in real life, people heal! It's there to add realism!
  21. Video Game mechanics to retire

    For the record I enjoy healing in games, I've played a healer in every MMO I've played since EQ and I find it more enjoyable than any other class.
  22. Books, books, books...

    I still have a copy of Skin on my bookshelf that I borrowed when I was in middle school. I actually keep meaning to return it, but I never do.
  23. Comics Extravaganza - Pow Bang Smash!

    I wasn't sure if you meant you had seen them but didn't know they existed in the same universe or just didn't know the comics existed. I hope everyone from the Sonic Archie comics shows up. I don't actually wish for that.
  24. Comics Extravaganza - Pow Bang Smash!

    You've never seen the Sabrina Archie comics?
  25. The Dancing Thumb (aka: music recommendations)

    I wasn't that big on the new Norma Jean album, but I think I only listened to it once. On the other hand if you like them and you haven't listened to The Chariot you should listen to The Chariot. The lead vocalist was the original vocalist of Norma Jean from Bless the Martyr era and their stuff is really good. I think they broke up within the last six months (actually I don't think they broke up as much as they retired/had real life stuff to do and didn't have time for touring and music anymore), but they had a really good album that came out at the end of 2012. If you've already listened to them you can disregard this post. Shit gets rad at 1:19
