Psh, you should get into the game. It only gets better, the more you learn and the deeper into it that you get! Also the more people who know a damn thing about economics, the better the world would be. We need more artists and businessmen, and fewer politicians and soldiers.

GTA constantly evolves and improves, and its writing is always getting better. Its only "downside" is that at times it stops making a joke out of itself, but that's only a problem to the hypocrites who at one time are asking for a deeper story only to turn around and complain that the game is...

Your numbers are off, seeing as FO1 has 4 vaults (granted, the last WAS an unnumbered vault, and wasn't ever intended for the actual experiment). But most importantly, I wouldn't say that 3 and NV make light of vaults as being "common knowledge". It took some amount of research for James to...

The topic question is TWO DIFFERENT questions. Being better is not the same as outselling. WOW and LOL are both prime examples of games that cater to as wide of an audience as possible, and SUCCEED in drawing in customers because there are people playing. This is the "self-perpetuating black...

You don't seem to understand what a "control" is. Also, you're mistaken in assuming 13 was a control vault. It was a test of prolonged isolation, thus why the water chip had to be replaced and why the Vault Dweller was subsequently exiled after completing his task. These were thought up by Tim...

Martin has a very excellent explanation for the "discrepancies" between his books and the show. As he puts it, "How many children does Scarlet O'Hara have?" The events of the written story differ with the events of the film story, because they're two different versions of the story. They're not...

Speaking of Boardwalk Empire... I used to really love that show, but looking back on it, it seriously fell apart after the first season. Between the 4th and 5th season, the show had a GREAT opportunity to use all of that character building they'd established and show what these characters we've...

The short answer is "it varies from person to person". The long answer... From a biological standpoint, our brains secrete endorphines after physical activity, both to help our bodies cope with the stress of the act, as well as to positively reinforce an evolutionary-vital task. Just like we...

Indeed. No one's saying they ARE all PF, they're comparing lesser works with a better work. Just like how LordAshur brings up Jackie Brown multiple times; comparison by presenting a greater work (as he perceives it). Avengers wasn't great fun because of special effects and "nerd jokes", it was...

There are ways of showing content WITHOUT showing spoilers. Terminator 2 trailers COULD have shown both action AND dialog without blatantly ruining the twist that Arnold was the good guy this time around. You presented two VERY disparate examples of a much more complex soup of variations. There...

I think that falls under a matter of understanding what he meant, and his lack of eloquence in explaining that. While 11 and 19 were actively designed to intentionally stress its occupants (as were 70, 53, and... well, most of them), these weren't "evil and cruel" in the sense of comparing them...

I find your analyses of Inglorious Basterds' showcasing of Allied war crimes while never really showing Nazi war crimes to be the most depth to ever come out of that film. It's the first thing to come along that makes me think it's not as shit as my experience would leave me to believe. Still...

How is the vaults "ending badly for everyone" a bad thing? That was the WHOLE POINT of the vaults (from a storytelling perspective). Even the Chosen One, when confronting Richardson about the vaults, expresses HIS understanding that they were catastrophic failures, to which Richardson had to...

Sarcasm isn't a point. Such as? We have a control vault (3), a test on self-sufficiency (22), a psychological study of paranoia (19), a psychological study of morals under pressure (11), a study of a society with abundant and freely available weaponry (34). Nothing crazy about any of those.

Yes, the ending of Django was AMAZING. It had great shootouts. Great quotes. Great elements. But disparate parts do not comprise an equal whole. As a whole, the movie wasn't great, even though many parts of it were great. I think one of the problems with the film was how much attention it got...

I am saying, point blank, that Avengers is a great movie, and tons of fun to watch, and Inglorious Basterds is a boring movie, not as fun as any of his earlier films, and at the end of the day it's just not a good film. There, have your tantrum. I'll wait. =) Seriously though, I'm a HUGE...

To the question of "will I get FO4"? Yes. But NOT on opening day, and preferably at a significant bargain. If you're even remotely familiar with my arguments, you'd notice that I'm firmly against blindly bashing something without actually personally experiencing it, so I WILL NEED to play FO4 to...

Well you CLEARLY didn't do the math if basic multiplication comes out to 52 vaults out of all 13 commonwealths. Different story if you say you checked the geographical boundaries. But, again, you missed some vaults like those I mentioned.

It's only the point for popular opinion morons who don't want to bother learning the basic rules of a game. I'd say The Impossible Game is MUCH more about pissing off the player... when in fact it's absolutely not. The name is a joke. The game is ACTUALLY about teaching precision and patience...

That was my point. XD
