@Witzbold: Let me see if I'm understanding this:
Is it like he understands how the physics in the game world work, and he can adapt to them quickly, but then when he goes into the real world, he still tries to use game physics?

Or am I misunderstanding that completely?
I don't know.
My relatives and neighbors have all been playing FPS's their entire lives(ranging 6-16 in age now), while I barely started at around 14, yet I can slaughter them all.

@Witzbold: @dead_red_eyes: Man, that's harsh. I'm not a noob to the internet or anything. I just happened to wreck my PC when I was 6 or so by downloading a virus.
Since then, I've been kind of edgy around downloading anything.
What? Nobody has experienced sadness or embarrassment when playing a game?
I don't believe that.
I don't believe that.
And relief sounds dumb. A game has never made me relieved.
The others make sense though.
It really wouldn't be a very functional map to play on. There's too many places to fall through, no solid platform level, and imbalanced spawn spots.
Though I guess it's a decent way to propose.
@QualityJeverage: What would make you think I have Norton? I said I don't like viruses.
I use Avast. It's much better, and sounds all pirate-like.

Though after checking out the site some more, I think I'll download this one. It's supervised by a professor at the university. If he's in on a virus conspiracy, there's lawsuit money to be made.
@QualityJeverage: Actually, I'm not missing much, and I'm also missing out on a ton of "enjoyable" viruses.
I mean, I already get to enjoy hundreds of home-brewed mods that have been checked and cleared by official, big-name sites. It's not like I'm missing anything major. I still got to play all of Yahtzee's games, try out Garry's mod, play Sam and Max, etc. There's a crapload to do on the internet. Risking crashing my entire system for one single mod does not sound like my idea of a good time.

It actually looks cool, and I'm interested in trying it, but I hate downloading from non-famous sites.
Is it up on Steam, or will it go up on there eventually?

After being burned twice, stay away from Sony headphones.
They just suck.
Unless you happen to have a very deformed head.
In that your ears are on top of each other.

For everyone out there who, for some bizarre reason, wants a transcription of the lyrics-Here you go!
Epic!
Burn the Rope
Congratulations-You managed to kill that boss, you see, the Grinning Colossus.
You're the hero we all wish we could be.
You made it through the tunnel, then you grabbed that fire on the wall.
You jumped up above him, then you burned the rope and saved us all.
You burned the rope and saved us all.
You burned the rope and saved us.
Now you're a hero!
You managed to beat the whole damn ga-ame.
We're happy you made it, but how're you gonna spend the rest of this da-ay?
Maybe watch a video?
Maybe press refresh and start again?

Yes, it's over now!
We didn't want to make a longer game.
This is it, I swear it's true!

You know, I don't mind the clamshell packaging. It's a hassle and all, I know. But it's a minor one. With a pair of scissors, you've simply just lost two or three minutes of your time, not that much of a big deal.
Though I have to say I don't think it should exist anymore, for a pretty obvious reason. All of those products in clamshell packaging at the stores I go to are behind glass cases and security locks. That means there's absolutely no reason for that level of security. What is a shoplifter going to do? Smash the glass, get a boxcutter, cut off the lock, and then remove it from the packaging?
It's absurd at this point. No need for such excess.
@Volomon: Yeah, I know. I was joking. It might be, and it might not. Good job a being an asshole, though.
@mariospants: Actually, the Sudoku thing isn't a cheat. I know the secret, and might even be one of those guys with the absurd time. All you have to do is play a level, and beat it.Then, you copy all the numbers down, and play it again.
Bam! You've beaten it in 20 seconds.
It's really just the fact that the levels never change that allows for such great times on it. Much different than Kart's imbalance.

@Cruithne: Oh god. If I tried dealing with people on Kotaku like I do in real life, I would have been banned long ago. I'm a total jerk in real life. Only the pause allowed by commenting allows me to calm and become more level-headed. And that's what it's for.
@Troubadour: Actually, I think it's for legal reasons.
@Figroti: Saying that is pointless. It's understood when you comment. Every time you make a comment, you're doing it under the terms of agreement, which state that the Kotaku Staff can ban you at any time for any reason they feel is justified. That means you don't need to say you know you can be banned for it, it's implied from it being a comment itself.
Yeah, I'm going with glitch. I remember hearing about glitches in Mario Karts, all the way back to the original.
Like, one guy said somewhere that he discovered if you hit a wall at just the right pixel in one of them, you cut through like half the level. It's probably just some bug Nitendo didn't catch.

I predict that the game will be nineteen hours long.
So excited. Though the trailer itself was lame, it made me lust for the game.
Yes, lust.
@male roof blower: Maybe it was innocent, but I'm pretty sure you know that the drummer only has one arm.
That's insensitive.
That's insensitive.
@daizyujin: Actually, this part:"I am fully aware I may get banned for having the opinion I do but hey if you ban me, then ban me. I won't change my opinion just because it isn't popular."
is more likely to get you banned. They really hate it when you do that. I'm saying that from seeing tons of people get banned, not for their comment, but from adding that to the end of it.

@Roto13:
I have always been a moral bastion of well thought out and intelligent comm....Okay, I can't say that with a straight face. But most of us here weren't involved with that crap. That's why we're here, because it's finally our chance to say that we disapproved of it.
@stranger: *Strokes beard* Hmm...I wholeheartedly agree. There are some fundamental flaws in the Star commenting system, the same that apply to any human society. Unless we made all comments completely anonymous, however, there would still be elitism. Before followers, Witzbold and Dv8Godd still stood out as "star" commenters. And after followers, Witz, Dv8, Kirby, and Papabear all immediately became famous. The stars is just a more open extension of this. It's essentially stripping away the layer of pretending not to have an elitist society. And it's Gawker-wide anyways, so there's not much they can do about it.
@Cuban__B: Oh yeah? Have you read fleshbot? All the comments are about sex. What a load of pervs.
