ONE) Someone please tell me I'm not the only person who HATES the new browsing layout. Why would you make it so that there is less to see on the screen? PLEASE revert, DA.

TWO) This is about WWE, specifically the shield. I hope this point hasn't already been proven on tv (I don't really watch tv I just use the internets so i see everything ex plus facto) or else I'll look dumb. I LOVED that one time CM Punk called the shield out and said "we're gonna have words". When they came out he told them to stop helping him, he wanted to earn his victories on his own. Then there was another instance in which they attacked Cena in front of Ryback and Ryback did not try to help him I think the Shield might be the Jiminy Crickets of justice; they give the object of their attacks a chance to do the right thing or not. Punk did the right thing, he told them to stop (the just thing) even though he was benefiting. Ryback did not do the right thing, they probably (or will probably) punish him for it later. I think they're trying to bring Justice by presenting opportunities for wrestlers to do the just and right thing. I'm probably thinking to deeply into it but that would be an interesting concept.

Did the super depressing, crazy as catshit ending of Bioshock Infinite (I'm assuming it only has one ending b/c it didn't seem to have a moral choice aspect, one of the few things they did right) leave a fucking sour taste in anyone else's mouth??? That ending really bummed me out and it didn't really make sense either it....it was insubstantial, as Yahtzee would say to describe everything.

I don't want other people to have not enjoyed the game but I hope I'm not alone in this opinion.

We have problems with Monsanto; Here in America we have a plutocracy, where even if +90% of the populace wants somethings, the ~1% who have bought the government won't let us have it if they don't want it, like gun background checks or legalized marijuana. One of the biggest trouble makers is Monsanto, who produce genetically modified crops (including strains of wheat that produce the harmful protein "gliadin" which is making us sick) and chemicals which, apparently, are creating "superworms" and "superweeds" which are resistant to pesticides.

There are SEVERAL glaring problems in Bioshock infinite that I wish they would have solved. A new one too! I can have multiple plasmids, but only TWO guns! WTF that was something from the multiplayer that did NOT need to carry over to the normal game! Do you know how bullshit it is when I need to scour the map for ten minutes looking for an RPG b/c i need it but can only carry a shotgun and a sniper?! do you KNOW what a bad idea that was 2K?! Almost as bad an idea as it was to make it so that you can't carry and use health items. as soon as you pick them up you use them, whether its food or actual health kits. It's horrendous. I like the shield system in this game though, one of the few good ideas they've had. Also making Elizabeth an invulnerable item finder was a good idea too. (I REALLY hope she's not Booker's daughter...)

And oh my god the mother of all bad ideas, the auto save function. Holy SHIT, who came up with this?! Silent Hill Downpour, although it wasn't a great game it had a GOOD auto save function b/c it would auto save every five seconds, that's how you need it to behave. In Bioshock Infinite it auto saves every twenty minutes! I had to replay a few instances three times over b/c i could not save the game myself! Never NEVER go with an auto save function! Manual saving is ALWAYS better! Or better yet, why cant' they imitate what Skyrim did and have an auto + manual save system? That's the best. But NOOOO I've got this shitty exclusively auto save that saves every 20-30 minutes and never when I need it to.

At least the story is good and the scenery is lovely. And the voice acting is terrific. So it's not a COMPLETE fuck up, but there are some major problems that I'm surprised they're still making.

It's is April 1st! Happy birthday Randy Orton! Hope he gets to spend lots of time with his waifu and cute lil daughter.
