Star Wars the Force awakens official teaser

lv_hunter says...

The briefest explanation, seeing stormtroopers doesn't mean they're clones. They're still the foremost troops for the empire. The lore is a lot differnet now since disney took the rights, all post ROTJ canon has changed now, or basically not canon anymore.

And for the Falcon, freighters have atmospheric maneuverability, though the Falcon is highly modified anyway.

Wait, storm/clone troopers? Those are still in use? Ah fudge it. Don't bother explaining it to me. I'm not overly attached to the whole lore of the SW universe.

Looks cool. Not impressed that the Falcon would fly so low to the surface. X-Wing fighters, tho... that's another story.

Overwatch Gameplay Trailer

Jinx says...

So apparently if you are an FPS that looks like it was made by Pixar then you're a TF2 clone.

I mean, the similarities are obvious. They both have guns, they both have (mostly) humanoid characters, there appears to be a control point...and, my god, was that a healing beam!?!?! "One of the characters even turns into a turrent" - Hey now, the heavy is certainly slow and fat but he's not _completely_ immobile.

I spotted something else. That Tracer girl is TOTALLY using Weaver's Time lapse. That's another shameless copypaste from another game that Valve created from a mod made by somebody else. What next, Portals? Silent crowbar wielding protagonists? Waiting almost a decade for the next installment of a hotly anticipated IP?...hold on, I think Blizzard invented that with Starcraft and Diablo. nvm.

Honestly, it's been over 7 years. I played TF2, I loved TF2. When somebody tells me "Hey, Blizzard are shoveling all their money and expertise into creating a new game based on that other game you loved" my reaction isn't "HOW DARE THEY INTRUDE UPON GABEN'S HOLY GROUND!". I am looking forward to playing Overwatch and continuing an age old tradition of whining about how Bliz can't balance games.

That's a good point about the grappling hook. It was hella fun in the Just Cause series and I hear that the new Call of Duty has a couple of levels where you can use a grappling hook that are fun as well, but they don't let you use it in multiplayer.

Still, this video just made me wonder... why? If TF2 didn't exist I would think this is awesome but aside from the asymmetrical play (the opposing team are not exact clones of the classes you can choose from) I'm not sure what they're hoping to add to the genre aside from the Blizzard art-style and polish.

The mix of high tech and some fantasy elements reminds me a little of the Future vs Fantasy mod for Quake. And maybe it's just because I haven't been playing multiplayer games lately, but It's been a long time since I've seen a grappling hook put to use in a shooter.

Neil deGrasse Tyson on genetically modified food

Eukelek says...

Ok guys, Genetically Modified Organism refers to both "artificial selection" and "genetic engineering". But both are not the same. Artificial selection has gone on for millennia while genetic engineering has been going on for only a few decades. Genetic engineering comes in many forms: gamma ray bombardments for chaotic mutations, splicing and dicing genes, implanting and hormonal reproduction of clones can indeed create many monsters both visible and invisible. The invisible monsters and the toxins they can create with their genes are the threat here. The manufacture of biological warfare, virus engineering and playing with the elements that make up life without understanding the consequences is the threat here. The bullying of corporations playing God and patenting their spreading genes are the threat here. Not the fact that apples or cows are bred to be bigger and juicier. Give me a fucking naive simpleton break, gawd that was disappointing.

Mad Max: Fury Road

newtboy says...

Yes, but from what I've read, in part 1 they dubbed Mel's voice over with an American because they thought Americans wouldn't like/understand the Australian accent. Still, a young Mel clone would have been proper.

Non-Australian playing Max? Not happy George.

Star Wars Battlefront : Official Trailer

entr0py says...

That's exactly why I'm looking forward to it. Battlefront was always a Battlefield clone, and I don't think anyone has ever done the genera better than DICE.

It could be buggy, but if they have massive 64 player combined arms battles in the rebellion timeline, I might not care.

HugeJerk said:

It's DICE... so wait a year for the patch that fixes some of the major release bugs and then introduces a slew of new ones.

Honest Trailers - Star Wars: Episode II Attack of the Clones

Payback says...

He's one of those actors that need a good director and script. If his first big break was with Whedon and not Lucas, he'd have an Oscar or Golden Globe or something by now. At least an MTV award...

At least Portman got out from under the shadow. That's a good thing.


Now that I think about it, wasn't Anakin supposed to be 14 or 15 in Clones? He was what, 6 in Phantom Menace? Playing it like a mewling child just might be correct. He was just too obviously older.

AeroMechanical said:

I sometimes wonder if maybe Hayden Christensen would have turned out to be a great actor if it weren't for his first major role being directed by George Lucas.

Okay, maybe not, but I do feel for the guy because it clearly is the directing that ruined his character.

Rocked By Rape - The Evolution Control Committe

newtboy says...

I said, and therefore by definition promised that I would...every time I see you insisting on being insulting to anyone that isn't a Chinga tu madre clone. This time you did it in your description.
I self examine all the time (looking in the mirror), even though you specifically told me I should not, and that you had done it for me (living inside my head as you do).
You are right though, that guy in the mirror sure is laughing his ass off....Bwahhaahahaha!

edit: I'm not sure what you 'translated', but yep, I sure do!

Dick-ensian ass-hattery, imploring as always to look in a fucking mirror and stand the sight of the manly-littleman looking back laughing his ass off.

Oakland CA Is So Scary Even Cops Want Nothing To Do With It

newtboy says...

It may not work as well as one would like, but compared to the alternative, no input in the process, it's pretty good! You are welcome to disagree, thanks to thoughtful men voting to guarantee you that right. It worked for them, it can work again.
Being satisfied that the process can give good results is not the same as satisfaction with the current results.
The convincing I suggest is convincing those that already think like 'you' to vote the same (and put up reps to vote for that truly think the same). Easier said than done.
I'm not dismissive, I'm still discussing it with you, and never said you're not worth the discussion or 'it's time to ignore you', that was you to me. I am argumentative. I have admitted crippling personality flaws in the past, and will again. That's one. I try to do it respectfully (until intentionally insulted, then it can be ON!).
You misunderstood, my idea is to put people in that are going to fix the system, not dismantle it, and not just feed it.
It will never be perfect (there is no perfect), it can always be better, unless it's no longer existing. That's when there's no hope of improvement.
I wouldn't want clones of me in office, nor would I (they) want to be there. I would like people that want to fix the campaign finance system and get out, that's one main tap root of the problem in my eyes, one that's easy to fix with enough push. True enough, I'm not finding those people to vote for, usually. I can clamor for them though, maybe they'll turn up. (as I said before, my candidate rarely wins, I'm poor at finding the like minded.)
"My delusion", and who's dismissive?

Trancecoach said:

I don't think voting works. It does nothing for me. But again, good luck with that. I'm not stopping you. Vote all you want. Have fun with it. You seem satisfied with the results you've gotten from it. Good for you.

Personally, I find this to be a kind of crazy thinking ... That if you can somehow just "convince" me or others (by being argumentative and dismissive of my views), you will get enough people to vote "rationally" for some hypothetical "great" politician that will govern as you think you should be governed -- "thoughtfully," of course. "The Great Fiction." You think the state sucks, but only because it's not being run by the people who agree with you. You'll never get the clones of yourself into office. And even if you did, it wouldn't turn out as you hope.

But... hey.. It's your delusion. Good luck.

(EDIT: I'm curious as to where have you been finding the "like-minded" people who will vote "rationally" and thoughtfully" and the politicians willing to represent those people (and able to win elections)?)

> "Non-governmental forcible governing is a terrifying concept to most."

I don't really know what this means....

I am in no position to judge you as a "taker" or not, I know virtually nothing about you or your situation.

I don't think voting works. It does nothing for me. But again, good luck with that. I'm not stopping you. Vote all you want. Have fun with it. You seem satisfied with the results you've gotten from it. Good for you.

Ruin Your Day

Thumper says...

If you think looking at tit's is a sexual advance I would imagine you live in northern Alaska where other "people" aren't even near you. How do you walk around in society? Do you dictate what everyone is allowed to look at? If you really "treat people as people" you should tolerate what other people decide to set their eyes upon. People like you would have us all become androgynous clones so that no one is different than the next. I like diversity - which is another reason tits are so seductive - they come in all shapes and sizes, they're like fingerprints or snow flakes. You should look into your Scopophobia. I imagine as the world becomes increasingly more populated it will be intolerable.

shatterdrose said:

The level of irony astounds me.

That, and to your first few sentences: I grew up. I stopped being 14 a long time ago. I treat people as people, not some overdressed piece of meat that only deserves my unwanted self-aggrandizing sexual advances. But hey, wouldn't want to "make" you think anything because that'd just be unbearable. Shame on me for, you know, forcing myself upon you.

But hey, if you got it, flaunt it, whip out those penises and let people stare!
