As always, thank you for your service. This is going to end with you being the CEO and/or owner of Intellivision somehow.It's cliche to say everything in American life is now sports fandom, but at fir...

Thanks for starting this thread! I haven't had time to crack into the early access version yet, but I'm probably most curious about the weapons. I definitely used the bow as a crutch in the first game...

If anything pushes me out of this hobby, it will be the absolutely psychotic ways that business treats the people who make games. The concerns of investors and the growth of a huge corporation matter ...

Yeah, the Hawaiian city in Infinite Wealth is a specific area of Honolulu, but I forget the name of it. I showed the map to a coworker from Honolulu, and he immediately identified it as a real place.(...

Big Fish Theory was my 2017 Album of the Year, and it feels like that has only held up better with time. His track on Gorillaz' Humanz made me seek him out, and I immediately fell in love with his lyr...

@regularassmilk: Christ, the AV Club Kinjapocalypse is probably my biggest forums-related heartbreak of all time. The comments were so key to my enjoyment of that site, particularly for the Simpsons C...

I always saw Alex's role in this series as the Mads from Mystery Science Theater 3000. Give him an invention exchange budget and a TV's Frank to pick through his dvd collection in the background!Drake...
