"And, uh..." "The EPA?" "Yeah! Wait..."

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances." First amendment to...

Started reading the first Hunger Games book, but I can't stand present-tense for some reason.

So apparently the virus was trying to steal the Predator Drones' Mafia Wars accounts, and it came from a flash drive or portable hard drive that someone was stupid enough to plug into a high importance system...

Are you implying that it's a bad idea to put technologically illiterate, under-trained personnel in charge of the murderbots?

Why not just keep clean images of all the drives and ghost them at the slightest hint of something amiss? And, judging by the technical prowess of the people in charge of IT there, it seems more likely that someone just ran a suspicious attachment or something, rather than it being a coordinated...

I was rather hoping for a Psychonauts sequel, but this looks pretty awesome. Know anything about a release date? Wikipedia says later on this year.

The RPG at least is going with the look of the show. Not sure about the RTS. One of the more valid complaints I've heard about this is that it's unfortunate that they're going with the aesthetic feel of the show, which, while good, had to scale back on a lot of what's present in the books, both...

They're making both. Same studio. I'm going to stick with "cautiously optimistic" for now, but I don't have particularly high hopes for either of the games.

GUI = Gee You Eye SCSI = Scuzzy JPEG/JPG = J-Peg GIF = Giff SQL = Ess Queue Ell I can't think of any pronunciations that actually bug me. There's a brief moment of confusion if someone uses a different pronunciation than I'm used to, but not enough to be annoying. Edit: Oh, and I...

That's just the Devil trying to trick us with his lies--like with "fossils."

Doesn't "SEAL Team 6" not officially exist? The military/government would have to formally acknowledge that it does exist in order to complain about it.

Did you perhaps... forget that you had already listed that one? Can't say I'm particularly interested in this for Portal 2 (or any other games for which my trusty $10 mouse and $15 keyboard work), but I could see some pretty interesting games being made with that controller as part of the core...

The repeating 9s seemed more like an error than an actual time, sort of a VCR-flashing-12:00 thing. It's also possible that the entire complex was hermetically sealed or something, which could have preserved the contents somewhat longer. With science!

Because Valve knows we're the kind of people who comb through every inch of the game looking for hidden things, so they give us things to find. And because we know they know, we're all the more motivated and validated in our mad conspiracy theorizing. Conspiracy away!

It's by no means the least sensible thing Aperture has done, so it didn't really strike me as too odd compared to anything else.

I suspect the best way to find the impossible room would be to fly around in noclip mode looking for unconnected rooms floating off in the distance.

GLaDOS said she found 2 subjects with Chell's surname, a man and a woman. It was part of the building to the big surprise that GLaDOS heavily implied would be Chell's parents. Surprise! She made it all up. I'm assuming the part about the test subjects was a throwaway joke. On the original...

Nice foreshadowing on that, though. Recall what Cave said the portal-surface goo was made out of? Crushed up moon rock. BIRD! BIRD!
