Cop Rule
  • The biggest consequence was a settlement payment to those mistreated. Which didn't come out of the police budget or pension so basically they got to force the taxpayer to bail them out for their incompetence after the government already paid over a billion dollars for extra security.

  • Like a Dragon creator talks about Sega “flat out rejecting” the first Yakuza game thinking it wouldn’t sell
  • If you enjoy turn based rpgs, you really should give them a try. Infinite Wealth is especially good and you don't need to have played previous games to enjoy it. Not only do they do an amazing job of being funny or dramatic in all the right places, but there is such a wealth of content that you'll regularly get lost in side quests and minigames on your way to completing story tasks.

  • Anyone else doing the Loblaws boycott?
  • I started a permanent loblaws boycott this week. Won't be shopping at any of the other big names either. Preparing to participate in the boycott led me to sign up for a co op that I should've been using all along and I don't see myself ever going back. Anything they don't carry I can get at a local independent grocer and they're usually a little cheaper than no frills anyway.

    Co ops are a solution to corporate greed, use them whenever possible.

  • 10 best revenge movies of all time, ranked | Digital Trends
  • Without Oldboy on the list at all, I can't take the site or the author seriously. None of those movies even come close to the horrifying revenge of Oldboy. It evokes a special kind of darkness that stays with you long after viewing.

    To those in this thread who may not have seen it yet, make sure you watch the original Korean movie. The makers of the American version didn't have the balls to get the story right.

    Guy who tortured a wolf and paraded it's body around is now receiving death threats
  • I think taping her own mouth shut is her way of proving the wolf wasn't tortured. She's completely oblivious to the pain of the animal being run over, then dragged around while injured and restrained. It should come as no surprise that she supports the actions of the monster she created.

  • me too
  • Not only do they look pretty, they sing pretty too. I did a lot of tree planting in my twenties and these beauties would sometimes appear to hang out and sing with me while I worked.

  • iPod with custom shell, new screen, 512gb SSD, and a 30 day battery
  • Yes. I still use my classic regularly. 20 000+ songs on it without ever being connected to itunes. Rhythmbox for linux works great when I want to switch things up. Winamp did the job back when I was still using windows. Maybe you were forced to use itunes briefly back when the ipod was first released, but it didn't take long for other programmers to figure out how to make their software compatible.

  • Dragon’s Dogma II sales top 2.5 million
  • I appreciate the reasoned response. Maybe by the end of the game the pay items don't feel limited, but they did in the first 20 hours I played before returning it.

    If I was disappointed solely at the sales compared to my dislike then you're right to think its nonsense. What I'm disappointed in is a business I have loyally and regularly purchased from for over 30 years compromising their product and making it worse to try and fleece more money. I also worry deeply that the game selling well despite the flak means every major developer will find their own way to follow suit and refine the tactic until it becomes the norm.
