I've been playing this game off and on for years, and it's always a delight.

That perfect investigation bonus can get pretty big, and that needs a full photo album of 3-Star photos. Disturbed salt is an easy way to get close to that, so your friend is sleeping on some great cheese.

The better we understand the nervous systems of other species, the better we can understand our own through comparison and testing, which in turn can lead to more ideas for medical treatments- or augmentation, if you're into that kind of thing.

For C&C fans, Tempest Rising is C&C in all but name. The most recent playtest felt like a hybrid of Tiberian Sun and Tiberium Wars. It's not out yet, but I'm very excited about it.

If there's anything to learn from US politics for the past, well, forever, it's that some politicians and voters don't let the truth interfere with their narrative or perceived reality.

Springfield, Ohio is probably the best evidence of that.

This is one way that the DEAs' approach to ADHD medication boosts the black market. Artificially restrict the supply of legitimate prescription meds, and desperate people become easy marks for this kind of thing.

The Wiiimote and Nunchuk combo needs a little tweaking (maybe make the wiimote more like a nunchuk for ergonomics, give it an analog stick for coarse camera movement) but it was the most comfortable controller ever since I could place my hands in different positions relative to one another.

I enjoy them; they're a small, mundane, humanising element in a sea of (often bad) news or game trailer links in my feed.

Though I also appreciate the parody.

Noise alerts should be limited to imminent threats or severe safety warnings (fast approaching a slower vehicle in the same lane, seatbelt not fastened, etc) but not for activity that a) may actually be totally legal, and b) may cause panicked, reflexive actions, or c) may cause confusion for the driver.

I could also see it get really annoying for those of us without functioning cruise control trying to go the speed limit consistently, depending how close to the speed limit is started to beep.

Sometimes, in northern US states, people burn their houses down because they think they can use flamethrowers to melt the snow and ice off their roofs. Ice is pretty resilient to flames.

Personally, I think redirecting to Knowledge Fights' site would be a good move; though I mostly hope it doesn't wind up under ownership of some other grifter.

Nice. Also, I like the storyline you've got going with the respawns.

I hope it turns out well; I've wanted to experience 2e as a player since before the playtest, and this would be the closest I expect to come for a long time.
