[After Colonial Marines] Is there a Gearbox game that is NOT controversial?
I'm going to say no, but only because I don't think Gearbox have released any in-house games since Colonial Marines.

There really needs to be a "-1, factually incorrect" option.
I just use -1 Overrated for that, especially if someone else has already given it a +1 Informative.

Also typical that this gets auto moderated to -1
Probably because you use words like "leftists" and (I assume) "athiests" as perjorative terms. If only you'd worked in something about 'dem liberals you might have got a point for the full set.
You did manage to shoehorn something about Obama in there, so at least there's that.

It's all well and good quoting the amendment, but you'll note the word "unreasonable" in there. May I suggest that instead of merely copy-pasting the constitution you give some thought as why checking a driver's phone may or may not be constitutional and write about that?
To play devil's advocate: a cursory glimpse to see if a call was in progress at the time of the crash seems reasonable to me; sending/receiving texts... not so much (who's to say I read the message that arrived just then?). Such complexities are, after all, the reason we have those "court" thingies.

The air flow through the middle of the cylinder almost guarantees they won't make stackable peripherals. It's going to be a tangled, sprawling mess to expand.
It's designed to sit on a flat surface, i.e. a desk, so stacking peripherals shouldn't be a problem. I still don't see the benefit of spinning the whole thing around; the power cord alone is thick enough to make it impractical.
If this was a new version of the cube I'd give serious thought to getting one, but as a high-powered, expensive replacement for my desktop I'll give it a miss.

I get the feeling that busts will be much easier when everyone is sitting at home, cabbaged on their couches.

...or over arcing characters that I can tell so far.
There is one, but it's more of a shout out than anything significant to the plot.
