  1. Re: Scott Aukerman will start Comedy Bang Bang on the Web

    I bought two tickets to the Boston show, and then managed to forget about the show entirely. I wasn't even doing something important that day. Just...forgot. I need to get off the drugs.

    I'm glad...

    People whose cancer is in remission still have cancer, it's just not actively spreading.

    Re: This is the new games thread

    Games were exponentially less complicated many years ago. It's not that it "can't" be handled, it's just that it's not worth handling anymore. My evidence for this? They aren't handling it. So,...

    Re: Politics!

    It's only a strawman if that's not actually what they're saying.

    It's really satisfying, as someone with some means, to make the statement that you got there yourself. It's incredible to me how...

    From a programming perspective, it's not a big deal to set up two cameras and character controllers in the same gamespace.

    From a design perspective, there's a TON of work that goes into making...

    Re: This is the new games thread

    Games are serious business, Tim.

    TL;DR: What are some good, local split-screen co-op games? Borderlands is a good example.

    I'm critical of everyone, but I think it's cynical and lazy to think that you only have two options.

    There's been a repeated motif that Mike & Walt just argue while Jesse quietly comes up with an actual solution to their problem. That'll become significant later, I'm sure.
