My open bar tab agrees.

Trump derangement syndrome in full effect. Nobody cared until the link was made to the Trump campaign benefitting from analytics research. Now it's an issue.

It was certainly different, but I wouldn't say the original art style was 'destroyed' due to the fact the at any time in the game you can switch back to the original style. It's not exactly destroyed if its RIGHT THERE.

I think with DotT there is less room for that kind of art upheaval though, because, frankly, the art already looks good. It still holds up very well today, expecially if you run in SCUMMVM in turn on some graphics filters.

As someone who has the original game CDs and played through each of those games at least 10 times over the years, the BEST part of these remasters, IMO, is the added developer commentary. I really, really enjoyed playing through the Monkey Island and Grim Fandango remakes and hearing Tim and crew's thoughts, remembrances, jokes, etc around the development and production of the games, the music, the characters, etc. Really added something new and special to the playthroughs of games that I know like the back of my hand, like old friends.

>We're talking about homeland defense here, the Islamic State is on the rise

I can taste your sweet fear from here.

Encryption is a reality check for the government. It's not going away, even if they outlaw it.

Anyone else remember BowieNet? The man had his own ISP back in 98, for crying out loud...

A true visionary of an artist. He really understood technology, and what changes would be wrought by it for people, the arts, social systems, the music business, etc.

Dance, magic dance, Mr. Bowie. Dance, magic dance.

Big Bird was supposed to be the child viewer's avatar.

>“It’s been decided by the government as a whole, so our job is just to go ahead with it,” said an official at the personnel affairs division.

This sentiment makes me feel ill...
