    Rogue One

    I read that it was just a politically correct Hollywood space opera. And in the previews Felicity Jones has clothes on. What's with that.

    Well, you could game the Mamaev Kurgan, but what's the point?

    Red Factories/Red October Up For Preorder!

    I ordered one. Somewhere around 225. One thing puzzles me. The cover art features the Barmaley fountain. The statues of the children and crocodiles. But I thought that was further south near the railroad station. Is the map of the New RO portion really that big?

    Game of Thrones is so overrated

    I would add this to my list of famous tv shows I have never watched (like Seinfeld and Friends) but it's still running. Let me know when it's done so it's safe.
