  1. I'm going to have a bad week this week.
  2. "Mass Effect Galaxy." ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
  3. "The buzz around SWTOR seems to be more "ZOMG it's a Bioware MMO" than "ZOMG it's a Star Wars MMO"." let me guess. This buzz you get are from BIO fans, or people posting around BIO/Obsidian, and other similar sites? Not exactly a fair check. I wouldn't be surprised if at leats half the people who buy KOTOR OL would know who BIO is. "WoW became this behemoth without a mainstream recognizable brand-name (I dare say a lot of WoW players have never played any of the Warcraft RTS games)," But, they know Blizzard. I may be a fan of BIO, but they are no Blizzard. Sorry. "Hi, welcome to earth. If things cannot be overvalued, why do values inflate, bubble, then burst? like the housing market. WITHOUT the thing having been overvalued? oh wait. things CAN be overvalued. i get what you were trying to say, but you forgot about some things. like valuation, and how it can be done poorly by people and markets" Hi, welcome to Earth. Things are valued by what people are willing to buy them for. Period. Anything else ala gov't interverence, is simply artificial.
  4. "thus voiding the results of the regular season." No, it doesn't. It does anything but as the best teams still make it. I don't know how one can say it's silly to allow teams that win 90 games in as being wrong. Just because you lose the division by exactly one game because the division winne rhappen to beat a crappy opponent once more than you is what is silly. They should man up, and beat YOU manno a manno now in a cowardly way. Seriosuly, how could you say it be legit not to have a team like Boston in the playoffs? Gah. "best of seven for every series makes an already long season almost unbearable." Not for REAL hockey fans. Hockey could go for 12 months, and I'd be happy. Just like any real hockey fan. Are you a real hockey fan? Or a faker?
  5. "Bioware is overvalued as it stands-" Nah. Value is detemrine the price people are willing to buy something for. If someone is willing to buy BIO for $750mil then that is the value it is worth. That's the way real economics work not one's personal opinion - unless youa re making the purchase perosnally. If you value BIO at $1 than that it is its value. *shrug* As for the topic, MS is awesome. So is EA. Though wh EA would consider being bought out since they make money each year solely based Madden, they're fine as is. This would be a good purchase for MS, though. "I won't be surpised if some of the EA people wish it's Mass Effect Online instead of Star Wars." Then they'd be stupid. MEOL would not have the same built in audience that SW has therefore it would have to be developed cheaper therefore likely making it 'not as good'.
  6. "it made baseball "easy," " No it doesn't. It does everything but. That's like saying the NHL playoffs are 'easy' when they aren't. More teams in the playoffs just means more excitement for more teams, and fans. And, more entertaining games to watch. They're a boon to the sport. I know I wouldn't weep if baseball went to a 'sweet 16' format. Screw the 'traditionalists' who'd rather go back in ancient times which is extremely passe. As for the DH, I'm neutral towards it. I couldn't care one way or the other. I'm slightly in favor of pitchers batting though just for fun.
  7. "And, the earlier comments about the lead actress are true- she does have a certain "reputation" since early on in her high school years. She used to be one of the "hangers-on" on the fringes of the "it-girl" crowd in the big city and was always doing something to get noticed by anyone who would give her a moment of attention. She also swore she would do whatever it takes to "be somebody", "no matter what"- looks like she's managed to hit the right casting couch because she certainly has no more skill now than she did in those days! Glad to see she still has the right people to make her look good because her acting is as awful as ever! Joss must have really been taken with this one (gee, I wonder what she did to impress him? And, did the impressing extend to his brother, as well?) because she certainly did not get the job due to her skill or abilities as an actress (believable or otherwise)!' Proof or it didn't happen. What's the poiunt of personal attacks on someone on the internet because they 'suck' at acting? Anyways, Dishku is no acting champion but she's nowhere as bad as some claim.
  8. CLE @ BAL - BAL ATL @ NE - NE SF @ MIN - MIN JAC @ HOU - JAC TEN @ NYJ - TEN KC @ PHI - PHI GB @ STL - GB NYG @ TB - NYG WAS @ DET - WSH NO @ BUF - NO CHI @ SEA - CHI PIT @ CIN - PIT MIA @ SD - SD DEN @ OAK - OAK IND @ ARI - IND CAR @ DAL - DAL
  9. Very true hence the for now. This week's games looks tough to call. i can see me having a bad week.
  10. "As it happens, sleeping enemies who are then targeted by a horror spell suffer maddening nightmares that deal severe damage to them, instantly killing most weaker foes." Sweet.
  11. "It's really really good fun, it's like playing a superior, gonzo 1E AD&D pen and paper campaign. Kudos to the developers for making an old gamer very happy and more power to your elbows!" Kiddin' right? SOZ is a horrible old skool game. yes, it's old skool. But, it's horrible. Good oldskool games are the GB ones.
  12. "Week two results: Volo: 12-4 GD: 8-8 Enoch: 5-11 Kelverin: 5-11 Season Totals: Volo: 24-8 GD: 19-13 Kelverin: 17-15 Enoch: 14-17" WOO HOO! The football 'moron' is in the lead... for now!
  13. NHL 09 - Just reached my league's championship final for the first time in 8 seasons. NHL 10 - Franchise, and EASHL
  14. Meh. Big deal. Good for him. Besdies, they're just cheerleaders no matter what they are called. Not even a real 'cage'.
  15. I personally find neither shallow. Everyone has their wants and needs. You should be with wheoever you are attracted to. The problem is some will marry a rich person even if they're not really attracted to them. That's shallow.
  16. "I'm not sure that you can say that without experiencing the story." I absolutely can. It only takes some imagination, effort, and willing to add extra stuff. It's very much possible. They simply chose not to.
  17. "I remember seeing Mike Peca, when he was an Oiler, skating around and tapping people that had their heads down instead of hitting them. The more veteran players tend to not bowl people over, even though Peca more than had the ability to." Most veteran players do not do that. I don't recall Peca doing that, but if he did, he was a rare breed. As for 'more veteran players' tell that to guys Pronger, Stevens, Messier,, Howe, and 100s more. L0LZ
  18. DA > BG series
  19. "Well, a short cutscene about how the world gets destroyed, and then load game, wouldn't be bad." So you would want it to be like FO1 when you join the Master, get turned into a Mutant, and then get a game over screen? Sounds kinda lame, and a waste. Might as well just say game over, then. That said, I wish BIO would have a way that you can play the game and not be a Grey Warden. That be my ideal. there is no story reason why it should need to be forced on you. Period. The only reason it is is because BIO says so, and they made the story with that in mind instead of using imagination to deal with it. Plus, it avoids extra work.
  20. Mocking him by calling him Celine isn't all that impressive either. Just sayin'.
  21. "He isn't impressing anyone" Got proof of this?
  22. Jerry Jones is awesome. He loves his team, and tries to do what he can to win and succeed. That's all that should be needed. Kissing up to punks is boring stuff that cowards do.
  23. Carolina @ Atlanta: ATL Minnesota @ Detroit: MIN Cincinnati @ Green Bay: GB Arizona @ Jacksonville: ARI Oakland @ Kansas City: OAK New England @ NY Jets: NE New Orleans @ Philadelphia: NO Houston @ Tennessee: TEN St. Louis @ Washington: WSH Tampa Bay @ Buffalo: BUF Seattle @ San Francisco: SEA Pittsburgh @ Chicago: CHI Cleveland @ Denver: DEN Baltimore @ San Diego: BAL NY Giants @ Dallas: NYG Indianapolis @ Miami: IND
  24. I don't mind the after thewhistle play but I wish refs would call more peanlties for it. It's funny that you can smash someone a dozen times with no penalty call but you poke check the goalie just once it is an auto call. L0L Plus, it eats up valauble time when you could be playing the game. Still, it can be fun.
  25. Fighting in NHL 10 is absolutely horrible. It's button smashing at its worst, and the 1st person view is pathetic.
