Game Review: The Last of Us: Left Behind

If you’re a fan of zombie video games and have not yet had the chance to play The Last of Us, you need to stop what you’re doing right now and go buy this game. If you have played it, then the Left Behind DLC should be your immediate next purchase. The storytellers at Naughty Dog have done it again with Left Behind, bringing a touching tale that will leave you on the verge of tears. Most importantly, they do it in such a unique way that I would venture to say they are changing the way people will see video games in the future.

K-Pax: Be Afraid. Be Very Afraid.

.

Q.  What, in Dr. D's view, determines the fate of K-Pax in 2014?

A.  The first question was whether they'd let him pitch.  That seems to be all but resolved.  Thursday, April 3 at Oakland, Happy K-Pax Day.

The Mariners brass, they'll make all the obligatory noises about his needing to earn it -- while at the same time smiling slyly and turning down an easy Chris Capuano signing.  Also, the people around the Mariners periphery are tipping us off, speaking of Paxton and Taijuan (in that order) as incumbents.

...

The only other questions:  injury (no issue), and whether Paxton's mechanics come completely unglued.  :: shrug :: There are a lot of MLB veteran starters who have as good a chance of losing their jobs this spring, as Paxton does.

The fate of K-Pax is already resolved.  He's going to land on the league with an epic splash (80%) or battle his mechanics too much (20%).  Pretty simple, from where we sit.

.

Q.  How much did his 2013 run affect the situation?

Luckily, Minneapolis has several places that specially cater to couples with dogs. LoringPark is right in the middle of the city and so is a convenient location if you don’t want to stray too far.
