What? There is no such thing as oil "subsidies". The oil companies get the same tax exemptions that every other manufacturing company in the US gets, such as a Percentage depletion allowance and a Domestic manufacturing tax deduction. These are deductions that all manufacturers in the US receive, not just oil… Read more

VII was the last Final Fantasy that seemed magical to me. X was decent, but not as enchanting as VII. Read more

Videogames, for one. That industry makes more money BY FAR than the movie industry, and without all the tax breaks and handouts from state and federal governments that filmmakers enjoy. Read more

The Tesla isn't even part of the conversation because of the price- it's a rich person's toy, not a real car. Read more

Agreed 100%. Chapter select would be awesome on most games. Read more

Excellent. Read more

It still baffles me how handing out (not loaning) money to people for buying a particular product can be in any way considered good for the government, good for the economy as a whole, or even part of the government's responsibility in the first place. Read more

I keep picturing the end of that F-150 commercial that's on TV right now. Mike Rowe asks the guy "So are you still a Chevy man?", only this time the guy says "Yeah I am", so Rowe leaps up with a knife in his hand and goes after him. Read more

Every time a huge game comes out, there are people bitching about it freezing or "bricking" their system. I've always believed it has nothing to do with the game, but rather just a system on its way out that happened to start acting up now. Read more

I would agree with this tip. Read more

I find the picture of the "damsel" from the cleavage up (everything else concealed) suspicious. If the Internet and Facebook had taught us one thing, it's that angles and creative cropping can work miracles.

It says so right here. And they weren't even testing for that. Read more

Probably complaining right now about the car being at fault, and how the next car he borrows will definitely be something "better" like a Ferrari. :/ Read more

Agreed. Read more

I have an unhealthy obsession with the series. Played 1 and 2 at least 5 times each, Paragon/Renegade, Male/Female. Awesome games, and very well paced for people who can't sit down for 6 hours before getting something done. Read more

Now that I'm in my 30s, work 60 hrs a week and have two kids, I find myself gravitating to "simpler" games, or at least those with frequent checkpoints and quick save options. Read more

Predictable response, and you obviously didn't read what I wrote. If there are no norms or arbitrary statistics, male crew members would've hit on you before now. They wouldn't have been "in the closet" if there is no closet in the future. Read more

I don't care if they have same sex relationships (played both Dragon Ages), but it just comes across as pandering at this point. Not only had Bioware said many times in interviews about this that Shepard the character is straight, but also remember that it takes two to tango- that means not only is Shep suddenly gay… Read more

Haha, so true. I'm sure it will be accompanied by some commentary on how they VIOLATED HER CIVIL RIGHTS by checking the alignment, too. Read more
