Lol, an Aicn reader's reaction to Jesse Eisenberg 's hiring:

LOL. WB memo goes out "Get me HEISENBERG for Lex Luthor!"

WB casting agent mis-reads this as EISENBERG. At least they got Jesse, and not Hailey from the Pepsi commercials.

Congratz on your 3DS XL, Edge! Have you played 999 yet? If not, I recommend getting that, and its sequel Virtue's Last Reward.

Does The Last of Us get better?  Like ... much much better?  So far ... not so good.  It's probably still early days but this is not nearly as good as I expected.  A lot like Uncharted with action set-pieces intersparsed with exploration and token puzzle solving.  With a few zombies thrown in for good measure.  If there's a GOTY in there I'm really not seeing it yet

Yes, it has a very boring first few hours.

I don't remember it ever being boring. I enjoyed it all the way through. *shrugs*

I'm very sorry about your tendonitis injury, GG. I have tendonitis as well, and it awful. I have learned ways to manage it over the years, and I'm about 90-95% pain free. I never needed to have surgery. I really hope you are feeling better soon.

Have you given any thought to using any speech recognition software? I had Dragon Naturally Speaking years ago, and it worked pretty well. It might be good enough for forum posts and emails anyway.

Congrats Edge. Bit pointless getting it before the 3DS Korg, though. Nyaa

First half mediocre at best. Second half kinda great. So, no GOTY in there. But still pretty good overall.

Yay Edge has a 3DS! Now remember Edge, if you own a 3DS and you don't download SteamWorld Dig you're not worth shit. So do it.

This just happened on gaf

https://twitter.com/Emi1yRogers/stat...78254244683776

I was in contact with Ubisoft this morning. They won't comment on Wii U Watch_Dogs. Ubi Q3 results in Feb, hopefully we hear something then

I only post that cause this gif was posted as a reply right after.
