I might take down the link soon.

They aren't? You realize there is more to Microsoft than the PC gaming side, right?

Serious / Cop shoots fleeing man 8 times, plants evidence

white South Carolina police officer was arrested and charged with murder Tuesday after video showed him fatally shooting a fleeing, unarmed black man in the back.

North Charleston Police Officer Michael T. Slager, 33, can be seen shooting 50-year-old Walter Scott after a confrontation on Saturday, according to The Post and Courier. Slager chases Scott and shoots at him eight times in the video recorded by a passerby and obtained by The New York Times.

Scott died there, though it wasn't clear if he died immediately.

The graphic video raises questions about Slager's original assertion that he used his gun because he felt endangered.

WARNING: GRAPHIC VIDEO

The confrontation started when Slager had reportedly pulled over Scott because of a broken taillight. It escalated into a foot chase as Scott allegedly fled because there were family court-issued warrants for his arrest. Slager pursued Scott into a grassy lot and claimed that he fired his Taser to subdue him.

Moments later, Slager reported on his radio, “Shots fired and the subject is down. He took my Taser,” according to the Times.

Earlier this week, an attorney for Slager said the cop felt threatened after Scott tried to overpower him and take his Taser. Today that attorney told The Post and Courier that he's "no longer involved" in the case.

But first images in the video are of Slager shooting at Scott as he runs away from him. It also appears that Slager drops the Taser near Scott after he was gunned down, according to The New York Times.

Police reports also say that responding officers performed CPR and delivered medical aid to Scott, but the video shows Scott face down in handcuffs for several minutes after the shooting. Another officer shows up and appears to give Scott aid, but never performs CPR.

It's a good thing in a way that the guy with the camera was able to catch this all on video, especially the cop planting evidence.  I'm glad he's facing justice, and like Scott's brother said in the CNN video, if we didn't have the video we would just have to take the cop's word for it.

Right. So here's the deal. Simple really.

They take the source material.

Run it over with a tractor.

Throw in tits.

Throw in a group of disposable people.

Most likely teens. Drunk party or something at this old abandoned place.

Doors lock at night.

Disposable people get picked off.

Tits and lead survive.

I seek payment now for all my hard work.

YOU FORGOT THE DEAD NIGGERS.

Are you fucking kidding me.  First Grumpy Cat, now an overhyped game is being made into a movie.  It'll be interesting to watch an hour-and-a-half to two hours of a guy sitting in a chair waiting for the jumpscares.

Headline: "Republicans are trying to ban poor people from buying meat and seafood!"

Reality: A Republican is trying to restrict EBT users from buying stuff like filet mignon and crab legs.

K. This is a non-issue, there already tons of things that you can't buy with EBT.
Where's the proof they are buying filet mignon and crab legs?

You know, the 1 guy that Fox News manages to interview.  Because millions of other people do that, apparently.

Anger, present an argument about why it's wrong. All you're doing is saying "you're wrong, I'm right" over and over.

Well, I am arguing with a wall. What the NSA does is a violation of 4th Amendment rights, and if you deny that you're absolutely ignorant and certainly blindly defending an illegal action.

my interest in the game peaked after the Haven battle. everything else didnt measure up. i didnt care for the ending either, but i always thought that was because i wasnt as invested in the lore as the dragon age fans.

Yeah, honestly the Siege of Haven should have built up to the Siege of Skyhold.  I mean, you have this huge goddamn base with an Eluvian mirror, and Corypheus decides to not lay waste to your castle in an attempt to get that mirror?

IMO, the only cool thing after the Haven battle was trying to get the Grey Wardens, because I think those guys are freaking badasses.  Like, they're the Batmans of Dragon Age.  But I agree with you, nothing else held up after Haven.  The second half of the game felt more like a chore to get through, especially getting 40 Power Points (and you had to keep refilling it, because for every mission where you get Power you have to spend it for another mission to get more power).  By the time I reached the end, it was more of a "Thank God" moment than a buildup to an awesome climax.

Gaming / Dragon Age Inquisition's ending was...(spoilers, obviously)
« on: April 05, 2015, 03:32:35 AM »
...very fucking meh.

Like...it's not Mass Effect 3 bad, but it's still pretty fucking bad.  Aside from the obvious sequel bait with Solas--the most boring and wooden character I think I've ever seen in Dragon Age-- being built up as the "new bad guy", I was just left with a huge feeling of disappointment.

Dragon Age Inquisition really was a remarkable game, and infinitely better than Dragon Age 2 in every way possible, but holy crap did it just feel lacking many times.  After you've sealed the Breach, you deal with Corypheus, the villain from a Dragon Age 2 DLC, who was brought back from the dead after Hawke and party defeated him.  He then goes on to raze Haven to the ground and declared his intent for godhood.  That sounds good, yes?  You're facing an already powerful enemy who wishes to be a god, so there's definitely going to be some fun thrills, yes?

Fucking wrong.

Literally throughout the whole game, you're kicking Corypheus' ass.  Every single military action he takes, you go in and easily manhandle that walking corpse.  There felt like there wasn't any urgency or suspense whenever he was out to do something.  Literally every War Table meeting was, "Oh look, Corypheus is going after another artifact.  *sigh* Let's go people."  They treat Corypheus as a joke, which isn't a surprise seeing as The Inquisitor makes this ambitious Tevinter Magister his bitch throughout the events of the game.

The final battle felt underwhelming and felt more like you're swatting away an irritable fly rather than facing certain doom.  The resources you build up the whole game literally just stand idly by, none of your companions face the possibility of permanent death, and after you beat the final Boss of the game the Inquisitor just bitch slaps him into the Fade.

Compare this to Mass Effect 3.  The game features an apocalyptic End of the World scenario just like Dragon Age.  The main difference?  The villains are treated as actual threats and literally fuck with Shepard the whole damn time.  Shepard only really got to fight back successfully towards the end of the game when he and the Alliance Navy lay waste to the Cerberus headquarters.  Hell, even the fucking Mini-Boss Kai Leng was more of a threat than Corypheus.  He cut down Thane (depending on your choices, of course), managed to steal a Prothean AI that was crucial for Shepard to defeat the Reapers, and put up a tough fight before finally going down.  Meanwhile, the Illusive Man just sat in his chair pulling the strings.  But 90% of the time, his plans are successful and leaves Shepard and Co. with that sense of dread and near-hopelessness.

I honestly don't know how Bioware just got this so wrong.  They did it fantastically in Mass Effect 3 (initial ending aside), but in Dragon Age the End of the World just seems to be treated as seriously as a rash spawning on your left ass cheek.  None of your resources are in danger, your companions have bigger plot armor than Tyrion Lannister, and the supposed Big Bad is just a fucking joke.

All that aside, Dragon Age was a good game.  Obviously the main story was too short so they had to fluff it out to Hell and back to justify the $60 price, but it was still a fairly enjoyable ride.

I just hope Bioware knows what they're doing if they will continue the Dragon Age games.
