Gay characters in video games?

Mass Effect 3: Lieutenant Steve Cortez was a homosexual NPC. Your player character, Commander Shepard, could also engage in homosexual relationships depending on player choice.

Put in homeowners claim, watch premium increase by 33%

To each his own, but I consider homeowner's insurance for catastrophic coverage. I have a 2500 deductible. We had a leaking shower right after we bought our place (walk-in tile shower, concrete encased plumbing) that cost 4K to re-do. I still didn't get insurance involved. I'd probably call...

Old XBox 360S 320GB consoles w/ kinect vs current 250GB consoles?

True, but it won't necessarily pass through in surround. My TV optical out is only stereo. I am in the same boat, in that I need optical out on the 360 for my turtle beach headset. I currently have a falcon chipset 360 fat, but I hope to score a slim (and not an E) after the price drop.

Old XBox 360S 320GB consoles w/ kinect vs current 250GB consoles?

An additional bit of information: the new xbox 360e consoles (which were launched under the radar) are cost reduced versions that do not have an optical port and one less USB port. It also has a different design aesthetic (looks like the xbox one).

Bastion thoughts!

save/don't save him doesn't have a big impact on the ending. All it does is make the fight at the end easier (as you saw, the tunnel people lay down their arms when they realize you are carrying him). If you don't save him, you have to fight all of those guys. Also, if you don't save him...

Bastion thoughts!

My personal GOTY 2011. Really loved the polish on this title. I don't think it's possible to max out in one playthrough BTW. Just start NewGame+ to finish maxing out. Make sure you get both endings. I recommend doing the "reconstruct" ending first, and then the "move on" ending second, as...

Breaking Bad Season 5 - Official Discussion Thread

So I got rid of cable a while ago, and I'm not going to get it again just to watch 8 more episodes, no matter how much I love BB. I also have a 3 month old now, so being able to pause/rewind/play when convenient will be key. What do you think is the best way for me to go about watching these...

Splinter Cell Blacklist

Splinter Cell: Conviction was also stealth/action, so you should check that out. The earlier games emphasized stealth more (some even had alarm limits, ie 3 alarms = mission fail) so you might not like them. I'd really consider Chaos Theory to be the pinnacle of the series. Some liked Pandora...

Lumia 920 vs HTC 8x

Nice writeup. I like smaller phones, and I think the 8X just looks amazing. 16GB isn't a deal breaker for me, as I don't listen to much music. The main factor is that I must have Verizon, so 8X it is. Looking forward to having Windows Phone 8 as my first smartphone OS :)

*sigh* 5-Hour Energy drink vs. buckyballs

Much easier to prove harm from a physical object ("oh crap, he's got buckyballs in his guts") than from something meant to be ingested. The drink manufacturer can always argue "oh there was some underlying medical issue at work."

First smartphone: HTC Windows Phone 8X? Also: Windows Phone 8 in general

Thanks for the recommendations guys. I am glad to get some reassurance that Windows 8 at least a shot, and that I'm not the only one who thinks the 8X is a badass looking piece of kit :) I'll probably dive in after Thanksgiving, maybe wait for a sale on it.

I've been thinking of upgrading to a smartphone for a while now (currently have LG Chocolate Touch, wife has Droid Incredible 4G LTE), and I'm actually considering going with Windows Phone 8. It sounds like it's a bit of a risk given the tepid support thus far by third party developers, and...

The treasure isn't down by Samuel. It's on the main level of the map to the far right if you are looking out to sea. The valve puzzle is a little unnecessary actually, as you can get to the room by using blink very carefully around the back, or using a possessed rat to sneak through a grate.

The 52 is a reference to the pilot episode. Skyler makes Walt breakfast with veggie bacon in the shape of a 50 for his 50th bday. He is given two years to live by his doc. We did not see the ID, but I imagine it has a fake name. Perhaps he used the services of Saul's "new life" connection...

Mass effect 3 (PC/Xbox?PS3) - $30 on Amazon

Not only that, there was never a GOTY version of ME2 with all the DLC. Same thing for ME1, although that had minimal DLC anyway. I think they are just not inclined to release such a product.
