I'm basically the same, but most PC games seem to have decent controller functionality these days. I'm not realy sure where the controller is an issue for the PC for 'console-style' games, since nearly all of them work with the XBOX-style USB controller. Skyrim and Fallout: Vegas handle like a drea...

I'm very thankful not to have needed public transportation for long. Just a little bit in college (which wasn't so bad, since it was a college town and it was common for everyone to use it to get to the mall), and then an agonizing couple of months in Baltimore from when our Zephyr finally died unti...

Well, it doesn't look like that Sony, Nintendo, or Microsoft has learned anything from the dissapointment this generation of consoles have brought as it heads into the sunset. I see a lot of tech-graphics which kinda look cool, but they're not exactly revolutionary (particularly if you game at all o...

Roberts and Barber had been doing that. It's been pretty popular so far.... But it sure as hell isn't attracting new readers the way Dreamwave, Furman or McCarthy had. Transformers is a nostalgia brand for many people (such as nearly everyone on this forum), but that isn't a guarantee of large numb...

In the 'I've got too much crap to do today to enjoy it but here goes' department... KreoO Predaking Cute and somehow just wrong. Predaking represents the LAST of the KreO Combiners at Toys R Us, which emptied out of these things from over 20 of them just Tuesday... holy crap! That means no Superion ...

Fans aren't the target audience though, so it doesn't matter what we think... For IDW, the 'core fan' is indeed the target audience. They don't have the numbers for it to be anyone else... I quite liked having a break from Autobots and Decepticons, with Maximals, Predacons and Vehicons. But it's ne...

Injun stereotypes! Why is this still acceptable? Ah well. There's stereotypes all over. He has a tomahawk. We get those at birth, you know. Along with our own little starter jar of warpaint. Well, there were tribes that actually did that, particularly out west, though admittedly not at birth. In th...

KreO Springer and Insecticon Won't go into too much detail here. Cute little figures, though somewhat marred with the 'over-vest' on them both (a little unavoidable on Springer). The half-vests really need to start showing up more. Cyberverse Smokescreen Surprisingly good figure, though a little in...

What i mean is, why is is both the extreme left and right dictatorships? I thougth one is about 'freedom' or some such. The 'extreme right-wing' being a fascist state was an deliberate invention of WWII, designed to make allying with the Soviet Union more appealing to fight the Nazis. The Nazis had...

Really? That's fascinating! Care to elaborate please? We really don't want to have this discussion here, but what I would recommend to you if you're really curious is to read a lot of the New York Times articles from the early part of the 1930s, up to about late 1937 or so. For that period, most we...

If you're hoping for a debate you're probably going to be disappointed, because I don't think you'll find too many people here that disagree with you.
