Hewlett-Packard to Split into Two Public Companies | Fox Business.
This could be a good thing. When IBM split off their PC business everyone won. Plus it looks like HP isn’t entirely letting go of their printer operation.
One funny thought in all this, though… With the advent of mega-corporations, it’s always interesting to see them break up because they’ve gotten “too big.” Unfortunately, I don’t see this bringing Palm back. That’s one thing the geek in me would still love to see.
I know I may be in the minority, but I liked SHIELD much more than many others. It may have been sluggish in the midd
le, but that was because they had their story timed to both Thor 2 and Cap 2.

As far as the whole Agent Carter thing? I was originally against that. Strongly against it. I didn’t see the One-Shot until after the series was announced. But if they can pull off anything like they did with the Agent Carter One-Shot on Iron Man 3, then it may be a huge surprise.
Sorry, looks like just another FPS. I’m really tired of these.
Destiny, the world’s most expensive video game, cost £300 million to make | Mail Online.
Give me a good space sim game that I can use with my Saitek HOTAS stick and throttle and you will get my money. Let’s reboot the Wing Commander or Freespace franchises.
Even better, how about modernizing Independence War. It had the best flight and combat system of them all. Full Newtonian physics! Give us that, and 000hhhhhhh! make it multiplayer. AWESOME!
Wouldn’t mind seeing something new in the Mech Warrior world, either.
Director Ridley Scott says Harrison Ford to star in ‘Blade Runner 2’ | Fox News.
I’m sorry, but this is not good. There are some things that should just be left alone and Blade Runner is one of them. It doesn’t need a reboot. I doesn’t need a sequel. The Director’s Cut is the definitive version and it should be left at that.
Hmmm… Another Wii U hit piece by a supposed Nintendo fan?
Ok… I’m really getting more than a little annoyed with the dumping on the Wii U. It’s the #2 next-gen console after PS/4 and has a significant lead over Xbox One. And let’s be honest… if Wii U is on life support, then by that standard XB1 was dead on arrival.
When I look at the racks at the store, I see row upon row of Wii U games. Not to mention all the Wii games. Maybe 1/3 case of XB1 games and 1/2 case of PS/4 games. It honestly seems like there’s too many arm chair quarterbacks who have their collective knickers in a wad in *wanting* Wii U to fail.
As far as people rushing to by ANY console… it’s just not going to happen. In this economy people are buying to replace an existing console, not simply to keep up with the newest toy. It’s not just Nintendo who’s sales are down. Look at the backpedaling Microsoft is doing to try and get people to buy. That argument is a straw man.
So far, I’ve not regretted at all choosing Wii U over XB1 or even PS/4. The range of genres on it is by far the most complete. We can play Mario, the Lego games, or you choice of FPS like Call of Duty. No… Grand Theft Auto is not on it. I consider that a good thing.
So what are you thoughts? Especially if you have a Wii U? Are you still glad you have the system? What games/features are your favorite?
