I love the TIE Hunter, it's such a fantastic show of power, not only is it blatantly a TIE version of the X-wing it's also a clearly superior craft, effectively showing that not only is the Empire better at what they do they can also be better than the rebels at the rebel's own game if they so wish.

And I assume you've played none of the games either?

Gearbox continues to disappoint me.
Had they simply gone through and reoptimized HW1 and HW2 for modern systems I could have have accepted that. They did not, the game produces bizarre and vague error messages, encounters slowly increasing and painful audio errors in the campaign, and I've heard claims that the tutorial isn't even playable.
Had they simply redone everything to be HD I could have accepted that. They did not, many HW2 ships still have their old low resolution models, which ironically means they look worse than the HW1 ships now, most particle and special effects were untouched, engine trails are still just nondescript beams of light that originate a few feet AWAY FROM the actual engine and do not actually stop when the ship is not in motion.
What's more they seem to have taken both factions from both HW games and mashed them together in skirmish mode without any real regard for the larger parts of balancing two massively different sets of game mechanics against each other, so one faction has to build strike craft individually and build research vessels and the other builds strike craft by the squadron and only has to research things.

I like that they seem to care about net neutrality and openness, and they seem to have good intentions in general.
The whole "we are legion and anonymous" schtik is really cool.
However due to their anonymity and purported lack of leadership, I don't see how they get anything done or even how they all decide to and agree on what to do. For all we know, there could be 3 different Anonymouses with completely different agendas and nobody would have any way of knowing which is which. Which is a problem. And is possibly one of the reasons they keep being blamed for a lot of stuff that doesn't seem like their kind of thing. I mean, if everyone is anonymous, anyone can claim to be Anonymous, and anyone who tries to rebuke that claim is also anonymous, even if they actually are Anonymous, but nobody has any idea which is the real one, or even if there is a real one.

Basically, if they really are the good guys they make themselves out to be, then I like them.
If they're the black-hat nutters the media makes them out to be, then I don't like them.
So in essence: I don't have enough coherent information to form an opinion. Which is probably their intention.

Is it bad that it took me this long to realize why that Lucario image is funny?

Oh? They actually caught someone in the act of torrenting? Never heard of that happening before.
So what's gonna happen now?
