It was a bulk thing. It starts at the very beginning and has no interruptions, including covers. There was a covers file with my download but it won't open, hence why I'm asking.

I quite enjoyed that episode. Very well-done subversion of how things play out in the comics, good mix of stuff that happens later in the series and what happened in the comics during that particular scene. Also, I wonder how long it's going to take for someone to put that Shane/Daryl/T-Dog/Andrea vs. zombies in a field scene on Youtube set to the Geto Boys song that was in Office Space.

Not that long:

They were....acquired. There are no covers, it just goes straight through.

So I've been reading The Walking Dead online and therefore have no idea what issue I'm up to. The last scene was Douglas (I think that's his name. The politician leader of the walled community) saying that Rick should be the leader since he has no use anymore. It's just after a fight with an outside group from Washington.

Anyone know what issue is the next one?

I will hear no ill words about Jim Carrey. He is my favourite actor.

Noone is doubting that though Matzat. The thing to understand is that by now, in the series, they would have been in this apocalyptic world for....at least 6 months to a year. In that time, they have seen their families killed by necrotic cannibals, death all around them, as well as hordes of zombies everywhere.

The time frame that they're in isn't just "Oh, oops, Apocalypse just hit. Let's kill everyone, I guess". It's been a slow road that has gone from keeping someone like Merle 'alive' as best they could in an infested city to where they are now.

I would kill Randall. Especially after he told the story about his group. He may be telling the truth about not being like them but then again he may not be and when my family's life is at stake I wouldn't take that chance.

Wow... just wow. So it's ok to kill potentially innocent people as long as your family is safe. Great stuff... what a wonderful world.

Congratulations. You just understood the dynamic of the show.

Sounds like a cool concept but I could see Microsoft arguing that a game console with "box" in its name could confuse consumers and file a lawsuit

STEAM MACHINE!

There's only one episode out but it's a crazy train wreck of awesome.

Servers are garbage. Still can't upload anything :/

Have you thought that it might just be something on your side? I've had no trouble with the servers lately.

It's his damn head cowl thing. They made it look like it was moulded out of clay instead of tight to his body. It makes it look ridiculous.

Is there somewhere online in Australia that posts games to you ala Quickflix (Aussie Netflix)? The two video stores near my house just merged and lost a good chunk of their gaming stock and so there isn't much of a selection.

He's right. It's a major spoiler. That said

What's that from? Episode preview?

I think some shots leaked out. I got it off tumblr so I don't really have a source.

So, major spoiler. Like, don't even open this if you care an inkling about knowing how the show goes.

EDIT: Just because it made me laugh more than it rightfully should have

18 Miles Out

Like how they appear to be building towards the group finding out that the disease isn't necessarily spread via bite or scratch. Or at least, that's how I interpreted the whole exchange about the two guards/officers in town and Shane saying he couldn't see any bite or scratch marks.

Brawl was cool. Shane kicking that kickstand out to topple a bike on Rick was brutal. And then when he shattered that window and the Walkers came, there were some great moments - Randall going apeshit on that one Walker, and Rick being part of a Walker sandwich. Rick coming back for Shane and the looks on Shane's face - when he sees Rick leave and when he sees Rick come back - were great. My only problem with all the stuff in town was like.. twice Shane stuck his arm out to stab a walker, and neither time he got bit? Even when he got his knife stuck in that one walker? I get that the first time he'd smeared his blood so they were distracted by that, but by the second stabbing it seemed like that fell to the wayside.

Someone also brought up a good point on Talking Dead in an email too: If that's the same knife Shane used to kill the other guard walker, then he cut himself with it on the bus, does that mean he's infected now?

The characterizations of both Lori and Andrea are super annoying. Right now the only females I even half-way care about are Beth and Maggie.

I thought they were getting at that when Beth fainted but she's seemed to recover so I guess it was a red herring.

I loved the look on Shane's face as Rick and Randall run off. It was a perfect moment of clarity for him. He now knows what it's like to be left behind for the safety of others.

The knife thing is interesting. I hope it doesn't go that route as I think having Shane just succumb to the virus is a bad way to kill him off. He should go out in a rage and have to be shot. Not only is it closer to the comics but it also would be a more shocking moment.

Also, agree on Lori and Andrea.

I saw, I think, Return of the Jedi, when I was young but never really took hold of it as a great movie.

I was 8 when Phantom Menace came out and I'll defend that movie as being good when I first saw it. It doesn't really hold up now.

I will have to try this Machete Order though.

Also, I'll defend Jar Jar Binks forever. I love that guy.

For those wanting an excuse to exercise, "Zombies, Run!" is being released on iOS on Monday.

Well, it´s the zombie apocalyps. It´s always about finding some place save. It´s just that in the comic...

...the survivers had to moved on a lot faster. There were no big subplots besides the barn and glen/Maggie AFAIR and Hershel kicked them of his land fairly fast. - Than later with the prison you had a much bigger sense of Danger because of the prisoners and the sheer size of the place.

Was the smal town they tried to settle in before or after they got to the farm?

I'm not 100% sure but I think it was before.

And also, obviously it moved faster. The show will probably have one place per season and that makes perfect sense.

I think the lack of a sense of danger comes from them being on a farm. They have acres of land that had been previously cleaned out by Herschel's family and the only way they can find zombies is by purposefully going outside the farm's boundaries and looking for it (so to speak). I think once they leave the farm, the sense of danger will return.

Is the Ace Attorney Iphone game any good? I saw it while searching around but I don't really want to spend $5 on it if it's terrible.

It's just so satisfying to punt someone in the head. It really is.

It's not like they tell you what to do. It's trial and error for a lot of those drills and I know I didn't have the patience to figure it out.

Good to know how it works now, though.

It'll only come up once you have a fight for UFC. In case that's a factor.

How do you change weight classes in Career? I tried taking as many matches outside my normal weight class as I could but it never switched over. Did it have to do with me being the champ?
