A teacher's obligation is to help her students learn, is it not? An appropriate response to a student "holding back the rest of the class" is to confer with the parent and recommend alternatives, not complain about it on a publicly accessible blog. Honesty does not require being an asshole.
GiantBomb did an all-day live stream with Kinect on Thursday in which they demoed every launch title. You can see the archived versions here, on the Quick Looks tab.
Generally when you put quotation marks around a phrase it's meant to signify that someone actually said those words. You're referencing WarCry's 2009 interview with Rob Pardo, wherein he expresses his feeling that adding arenas was their biggest mistake. However, it's not because arenas were a bad idea, but because he felt it was tacked-on.
Blizzard these days is heavy into e-sports, which is why Diablo 3 will have PvP, and why they'll focus as much energy as they need in order to make it competitive.
I would think that the "teachbook" name was chosen on purpose to be "facebook for teachers/teaching".
What are you quoting? That phrase is mentioned nowhere on teachbook.com. In fact the only results that show up in a search for "site:teachbook.com facebook" are links to "share this on facebook", just like every other website on the internet. In addition the site looks absolutely nothing like Facebook. They don't even use the color blue for pete's sake. No brand confusion possible. This is bullying.
I really hope BioWare implementing Mass Effect-like multi-player dialogue in TOR will start a trend. One of the first quests I did in WoW's Cataclysm beta even has a morality choice, though I doubt it has much of an impact on the outcome of the questline.
But who knows, 300 and Watchmen were pretty faithful adaptations and maybe we won't have Johnny Fucking Depp or Robert Downey Jr playing Commander Shepard.
I don't understand why discussions of the movie always come around to who should play Shepard. The only way this movie can be faithful to the Mass Effect universe is if it's not about Shepard. The crux of the entire series is that Shepard looks and acts differently in the hands of each player. The universe is so deep and there are so many historical events that could be portrayed, it would be a shame to simply remake any part of the games.
But, this is Hollywood, and the fact that Drew Karpyshyn's name is nowhere to be found in the article dims my hope.

Review: Mass Effect 2

I hate the new "scanning" system for finding planetary resources so far. You need the minerals you find on those planets, but scanning is 2-3 minutes of slowly passing the scanner over the planet and watching for a signal change showing where they are. Supposedly you can discover new missions on uncharted planets as well, but I've scanned a dozen or so without finding any. For planets with nothing but minerals, I like the old system of just clicking scan then being told what you found.
Yeah, the scanning does get tedious after the first couple of systems, but you don't really need as many resources as you'd think for upgrading. Focus on titanium and you'll be good on weapons. I ended the game with over 100k of each resource (around 40k eezo) and upgraded nearly everything.
As for side missions, EDI will tell you as soon as you go into orbit whether or not a planet has a side mission ("Anomaly detected")
I also miss driving the mako around, bouncing around, fighting thresher maws, or just trying to climb up steep hills in it. It took longer to thoroughly loot a planet using it, but was a lot more fun.
The PC version has keybind settings for vehicle control, and the Collectors' (get it?) edition art book even hints at DLC involving a new and improved Mako: "For future vehicular missions, the Mako was reimaged as a hovering tank."

they can point out that its in the dictionary now
As opposed to never talking to you again, on account of you being an uptight ass?

Of course. I don't think any rational person would argue he shouldn't be allowed to tweet such a thing, but we can still call him an asshole.
(No slashnerds. that does NOT mean I am into bestiality, so don't crack jokes.)
Duh. It means you can see horses and build pastures.
Funny, wasn't it just a month ago when the internet was up in arms because they were offering such a book?

Blizzard's design staff recently, famously lamented: "Our worst mistake was PvP"

Minima is plural.

I think you missed a certain Seinfeld episode.
Sure, it may be funny to you, but what happens to the person being spaced?
They're brought back to life by a mysterious organization and from then on have to take orders from Martin Sheen.
Imagination is a good thing, but it doesn't replace a complete audio/visual experience. No one would ever leave their house if it did.

You have the wrong definition of troll. No one is saying that having an impassioned opinion is trolling.

As long as it's not supposed to be futamental.
The Avatar DVD not playing because of DRM is very much like having ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife.
But will you be able to fuse them?

Ahhh, I see the grammar Na'vi's are out in force.
I think you mean "fours".
