This one goes out to Shell, a bluegrass cover of the Stones' Wild Horses. It's from what most consider to be the best bluegrass album of all time, Old and in the Way (1975). Vassar Clements, Jerry Garcia (yes, THAT Jerry Garcia, on the banjo), David Grisman, Peter Rowan and Jerry Kahn. Sadly, the al...

Ah, ok I now have my slots up to 18. I am enjoying the game so far - the story and writing are among the best I've seen in a RPG. The set of missions related to Firehawk and the fire worshippers are brilliant. The Mechro has an ability that creates an electrical or fire storm every time you or your ...

Yeah, the loot choices do start to get overwhelming. Given that the Mechro class relies a lot on fire and electrical damage, I'm focusing on those kinds of guns, grenades and shields. I'm assuming eventually you get to expand your inventory slots beyond 12?

I just hit level 9 with Gaige aka Lil Stinky. Not sure if i'm going to stick with the Mechromancer - having the robot do the killing takes some of the fun away. Setting enemies on fire and shocking them is cool tho. The game is very well done, and also very well written. I actually laugh out loud so...

Amazon digital has it for $19.99. Maybe I'll wait until a Steam sale, as I'd prefer to have it on that platform. -- Wed Nov 06, 2013 4:55 pm -- Ah, what the hell, I splurged on BL2 Game of the Year Edition, which has all the add-ons, using some gift cards that were burning a hole in my wallet. After...

I enjoyed the first Borderlands but never finished the story. From what I read online, BL2 is even better, and there seem to be a bunch of cool looking add-ons (esp. the new Mechromancer class - see below). Has anyone tried it? Is it a viable option for some fresh online co-op play? [video]http://ww...

Some of you know I play a lot of board wargames. This one looks very cool - it's now on Kickstarter and I've pledged $85 to get all the sets and stretch goals (including the bullet dice). The designer, Dan Verssen, has a great record for putting out good games (http://www.dvg.com" onclick="...

I just let my WoW account expire, because it made no sens eot keep paying $15 for smoehting I no longer am interested in playing. And why the lack of interest? Becaue the last major update essentially made the entire exercise meaningless. As many of you know, what keeps many people playing WoW is th...

I suppose worse would be having a cameo in a Rob Ford video.

Um, in the stumbling place....

Screw all of this and come play World of Tanks with us. They just unlocked a new Tier V Japanese tank. I'm still keeping my fingers crossed for a premium Italian tank!

Funny, we were just talking about some of the odd Japanese fetishes last night, and I stumbled across this manga series featuring schoolgirls in short skirts and visible panties, driving WWII tanks. So of course, someone made a WOT video using them. [video]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Rkrk0sXlK0[...

The guy narrating this sounds like us on TS. "What was he thinking?" He sounds English - maybe you know him, Gav?

Make sure you at least the see "death from above" trick at around 8:15.
