  1. Cartoons!

    EDIT: wrong thread!
  2. Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_6blt8m8-3Y I am so happy about that new version of the bike music.
  3. "Ethics and Journalistic Integrity"

    Jenn Frank leaving is heartbreaking. She already has enough terrible memories associated with video games, she didn't need more.
  4. Post your face!

    Sweet gangnam style shirt, kid.
  5. Cartoons!

    The first season's a little rough. Later episodes will directly address some of the concerns you're having.
  6. "Game takes place during fall of Berlin Wall." -gamebomb.ru By the way, props to Chris for "fuck those guys." Jeff Gerstmann expressed similar sentiment.
  7. Feminism

    I nominate that the Saints Row games be included with caveats. Those games are super weird, because you can play as an obese gender-neutral pansexual person of colour (like, any colour. Even metallic colours), but you still have the occasional GTA hookers.
  8. Oh man, great show, guys. Chris: have you eve read Dwarf Fortress patch notes? They're incredible. just from the last few changelog entries alone:
  9. PAX Posters

    The blood splatter off to the side is a great touch.
  10. Comics Extravaganza - Pow Bang Smash!

    The fifth issue of Lumberjanes finally came out today after two delays. It's easily the best one so far. There are dinosaurs involved. That's all I'm gonna say.
  11. The Nintendo Wii U is Great Thread

    the only reason I'd hesitate to call it my favourite is the terrible rumble, but that's a fairly minor point.
  12. Feminism

    how can something "especially" be set back centuries in a medium that's like fourty years old Also, posting this here for people not reading the newest episode thread (because can you blame them?)
  13. The Nintendo Wii U is Great Thread

    Does anyone else here have a Pro Controller? The battery life on that thing is nuts. I'm currently charging it for the first time since I bought it back in November.
  14. Nintendo 3DS

    Not surprising, but I was hoping it wouldn't be so that I could replace my broken one sooner.
  15. Nintendo 3DS

    Allegedly the reason they closed the Spotpass functionality was because someone threatened to sue after their kid got 3D dick pics sent to them by someone on their friends list. They could have just taken out the ability to attach photos, though. Also, I would rather be sent dick pics from someone across the country that I arguably know (since they're on my friends list) than from a stranger standing twenty feet away.
  16. The Nintendo Wii U is Great Thread

    I kept Dunban in his original armour because he looked way too cool to change it, and eventually changed one character to crappier armour because their current outfit was way too silly to take seriously. Also, are people really upset about those outfits for Zero Suit Samus? I've seen lots of people say that they'd make people mad, but haven't actually seen it happen in person. I just thought it was nice that they included reference to the Zero Mission and Fusion endings and didn't really see anything particularly sexual about a shorts/athletic top combo. I finally bought Mario Kart 8. Damn it... this is really good.
  17. I don't wanna dredge up this topic of conversation again, but I saw a news article that directly ties into something I was saying earlier. So judging by this recent sample, half of the viking remains we've been digging up have been female. We just always assumed they were male because they were buried with their weapons and never bothered to check.
  18. "Ethics and Journalistic Integrity"

    I guarantee you their outrage has a good deal to do with both of those people being women.
  19. Pokémon X and Y

    So there is a new Pokémon generation, in full 3D and with a simultaneous global release this October. A Nintendo handheld's just not a Nintendo handheld until there's a Pokémon game on it. The biggest reveal is that Game Freak, as foretold in jokes, did indeed run out of colours. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=GUYzzY9BQrk I also notice that the male protagonist's design is significantly less stupid than what I've come to expect. I didn't really like Black/White much and skipped the sequels altogether, but I'll probably give this a go. Pokémon has always fascinated me. It's really the only game series out there that fits its specific niche; it appeals to little kids who want to play the most casual of casual RPGs, but if you crack it open it secretly contains a Starcraft. Something something onions and Koreans. I'm particularly excited at what looks like a more organic overworld, ad the style proposed by early Pokémon concept art is really what drew me into that world. Interesting times ahead!
  20. Comics Extravaganza - Pow Bang Smash!

    I haven't read it, but the movie is fantastic, so I've been meaning to.
  21. Nintendo 3DS

    I've had Jeremy Parish of USGamer on my friends list since launch, so I am one of the privileged few who received a glimpse into the life of the world's whitest man. ...Okay, one more. The rest I'm saving for myself.
  22. I had no idea what Big Dog shirts were until I looked them up after this episode, and had completely forgotten about this particular KC Green comic. So good.
