  1. FTL Advanced on the iPad. Game seems really well suited on this platform.
  2. And OKC has stripped San Antonio of the Championship Belt!!
  3. Hahahaha! I knew there was a reason why I like Marcin Gortat.
  4. Coffee and donuts at the office!
  5. I'm convinced. Spurs won't lose ever again.
  6. I never posited that anyone here was claiming the Spurs suck or are not contenders. Why the straw man? Bah, point is moot. Warriors will end the Spurs streak tonight and claim the Championship belt.
  7. C'mon Volo, circumstances change. In case you didn't know, basketball is a game of runs. A hot team clicking together offensively and defensively can beat any other team. Regular season or playoffs. The best team is also the team with the best record while also accounting for difficulty of competition. San Antonio has the best record and play in a tougher conference. They also have an 18 game win streak. If there was ever a team that gets more snubs or disrespect when considering how good they truly are, it's the Spurs.
  8. Another Curry OT game winner. GSW 122 -DAL 120 ...no goaltending... Dallas broadcast:
  9. Spaghetti alla puttanesca with extra anchovies. Everything tastes better with extra anchovies.
  10. I'd still like to know more about their second Kickstarter as was subtly hinted in Feargus's interview. Will this be a trend or do they expect PE to make enough in sales to essentially self-fund their own throwback games after the second Kickstarter? Will the 10 to 1 sales to "preorder" ratio holdup? I'd be curious regarding the sales data of Broken Age, Banner Saga, and Shadowrun to see how the ratio holds up for Kickstarted games.
  11. Neither the Heat or Pacers are playing good ball right now. Why shouldn't San Antonio be the favorites? Best franchise for the past 15-16 years now. They have several championships, they play team-oriented system basketball. No team can out execute the Spurs with their motion and HORNS based offense. Rarely do you see ISOS or hero ball -coach's pron. Remember, they were one rebound away from winning the championship last year.
  12. For years my fantasy baseball team had "Fat" as a prefix. But really it was wordplay on "Phat." Though many of my players were both phat and fat.
  13. At this point, I'll say San Antonio is the favorite right now. They are experienced, deep, well rested, have momentum, the best coach, and the best offense in the game.
  14. The Giants are going to be good this year - probably high 80's to low 90's in the win column. But I don't see them catching the Dodgers. It'll be a dogfight for the NL Wildcards with Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Atlanta, and San Francisco.
  15. What was the rationale for the trade? Gentry's a good ball player but did the A's really need him? The belief was that Gentry could help right away whereas Choice is still developing. In addition, the A's have a lot of flyball pitchers and Gentry covers a lot of ground in the outfield. Essentially a calculated move for the short term to help win a tight AL West. (Intra-division trade notwithstanding...)
  16. Hated that the A's had to trade away Michael Choice. Rangers got a good one.
  17. AL EAST BOSTON TAMPA BAY New York Baltimore Toronto AL CENTRAL DETROIT Kansas City Cleveland Minnesota Chicago AL WEST OAKLAND ANAHEIM Texas Seattle Houston MVP: Mike Trout CY YOUNG: Felix Hernandez ROY: Masahiro Tanaka NL EAST WASHINGTON ATLANTA Philadelphia New York Miami NL CENTRAL ST. LOUIS PITTSBURGH CINCINNATI Chicago Milwaukee NL WEST LOS ANGELES San Diego San Francisco Arizona Colorado MVP: Andrew McCutchen CY YOUNG: Stephen Strasburg ROY: Billy Hamilton WORLD SERIES: Oakland over Washington
  18. To be fair, there really isn't a salary cap or harsh penalties for overspending as there are in other sports. But the Cabrera deal isn't nearly so bad as the one the Giants gave to Hunter Pence. $18.5m/yr for the next five years. That's more annual salary than what Lebron is making! Absolutely ludicrous for league average corner outfielder production through his age 35 year!
  19. Oakland's down two starting pitchers. Should still be enough to take the AL West. #NerdPower
  20. Well, there is going to be a party NPC who happens to be an Orlans detective.
  21. It's likely none of the above. We don't really know any plot details other than that it does not revolve around the protagonist trying to save the world/land/people. I believe in the opening, the protagonist finds him/herself caught in the middle of circumstances as a bystander and things just move on from there. At its core, PE will be a real time w pause tactical 6 party rpg hardening back to the Infinity Engine games from a decade past that will have an emphasis on fun, tactical gameplay and mature themes than your typical contemporary game with an emphasis on cinematic presentation. Edit: Here's again the link to the Kickstarter and their pitch: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/obsidian/project-eternity?ref=search
  22. Yes, the game is isometric - Which is pretty much one of the biggest hooks that snagged all us filthy backer types. Graphics and lighting, from what we've seen, are shaping up to be superb. I know DA2 is bad enough lol I don't mind much about graphic actually as long as it is not like Arcanum in which too pain to see. Anyway, the game is still in developement isn't it, then i wish you guys good luck. I will seek out this game if God will the camera will be like that of arcanum but the graphics will be much more clean... just look at some screenshots. So there is no 360 degree rotation? I think there will be some problem with that, especially when want to position your team mates. In DA:O we can rotate the camera and so we can micromanage our party members Example, AoE spells, with rotating camera we can position our spells where we want to execute them. If can't rotate the camera, it will be like Diablo, you can't attack enemies off screen, but enemies can attack you off screen Do yourself a favor and try any of these games out. You can get them cheap on gog.com or even get updated refreshes of Baldur's Gate or Baldur's Gate 2 on steam. My recommendation would be BG2 or Planescape: Torment. To many of us, these games, along with the original Fallouts, are the absolute pinnacle of the golden age of rpg's. Everything else just pales in comparison.
  23. Wasn't he the OG, Ass Prod?
  24. Much propage to what Fred Hoiberg has done for Iowa State. Heck, he even turned Royce White into a first round pick.
