Shouldn't Medounjanin have gotten a red for that instead of a yellow? Clear path to the goal with no defender (other than the keeper) between the guy getting fouled and the goal. No attempt to play the ball whatsoever, just simply grabbed him. Isn't that, by definition, worthy of a red card? Edit: Bad offside call. Bosnia should be up 1-0 right now. Edit 2: Nigeria up 1-0. The Bosnian defense has been badly beaten several times already today. This time they paid for it.

They're the team that's looked the best so far, I'd put Colombia second. That said, there's plenty of precedent for teams starting out weak and playing themselves into great form throughout the tourney. As long as that guy is on the pitch, Argentina will always have a chance to beat anyone.

That was a fun match.

Klose does as Klose does. Edit: Apropos of nothing, but Schweinsteiger has got to be the most German name physically possible, no?

LOL Germany.

I feel sick to my stomach for them. ****ing Messi ripped their hearts out.

Argentina playing like dog**** in the second half and Iran is gaining confidence. The Iranians might do even better than walk away from this with 1 point, they might even get 3. Edit: And Messi scores in added time. I feel horrible for Iran. They so deserved to come away with a point here. ****ing Argentina bailed out by Messi. Nice to have the best player in the world on your team, I guess.

Wow, that should have been a penalty in the box and Iran should have had a PK.

Frustrating first half for the Argentines. While the game was overwhelmingly played in the Iranian half of the pitch, as expected, Argentina failed to find the back of the net, or even generate many good chances, for that matter.

Yeah, to me it just doesn't make sense to do that with a story-driven game. I feel story-driven games are very ill-suited to early access. I mean, it's great InXile is essentially getting some free beta testing and there are people out there willing to help iron bugs out and provide feedback, that's fantastic and I tip my hat to those people, I'm just not willing to do that myself for a story-driven game. It's like reading a book with only the first 1/3 of the pages in it, then having to wait several months to read the remaining 2/3 pages. Sure, I could do it, it wouldn't be the worst thing in the world, but I'd rather read the book straight through, or at least have the option to. That's not to say all games are ill-suited to early access. I've participated in the Grim Dawn early access since before it was even officially early access (it was only available to backers at certain tiers and up) and I was happy to do that. But that game is a loot em up, which, in my opinion, is a perfect fit for early access since the story is very much secondary in a game like that, it's a game driven by combat and loot. Plus it's a game where you're going to run through the same content again and again anyway to either try out different builds or to try to complete sets/get certain drops.

Holy ****! Honduras scored a goal in the World Cup! I didn't think I would live to see it. Edit: Well, Honduras' lead was rather short lived.

Nintendo sold me on a Wii U (granted, I was nearly sold on a Wii U even before E3). Otherwise... meh.

That would be something is Spain, England, and Italy wind up all failing to get out of the group stage.

That last one from Benzema won't count, but that was a fabulous strike.

France took Switzerland out to the woodshed. What a thorough thrashing. Edit: And France scores again. This is looking way too easy for them. Is there a mercy rule in the World Cup? This is a massacre.

Yeah, I got my Steam key today. Now to resist the temptation to play for a couple more months.

This wasn't even a fluke victory, Costa Rica was flat out better than Italy today, significantly better. It's crazy that from a Group of Death with Italy, England, Uruguay, and Costa Rica, Costa Rica wound up being the first team to get through to the knockout stages. Hats off to them.

Melky, you're missing the whole point of the "Team" thing Step 1) Suckers buy more cards to craft badges to help their team "win" Step 2) Demand drives prices of cards up Step 3) Keyrock puts up cards he hadn't bother to sell before up for sale Step 4) ??? Step 5) Profit I've sold more card in the past 24 hours than in the previous month.

Justice after that ridiculous non-call on the obvious foul just a minute earlier.

**** yes, Costa Rica! What a lovely cross to set up that finish.

Looks nice, but they still didn't show tactical view. BioWare Y U No Show Tactical View?

I wouldn't expect much of a discount for a game that hasn't even released yet.

I'm waiting for Deadfall Adventures at 75% off. I'll try not to get roped into anything else in the meantime.

It's okay ISO, many men experience Salectal Dysfunction, it happens to lots of people... Not me, of course, my sale drive is quite strong and my wallet virile. I always satisfy all my gaming partners. Anyway, what I was saying is that Salectal Dysfunction is not something you need to be ashamed of, it doesn't make you any less of a man. There are lots of men out there that can relate to your predicament... Just to clarify, that in no way includes me. Any rumors you may have heard of some supposed sale drive performance issue I may have had supposedly had last winter are completely false and made up by malicious liars that lie. Rest assured, my wallet is fully functional and full of vigor. Ahem, so yeah, no shame whatsoever. Besides, there are pills you can take to help with Salectal Dysfunction... Or so I have heard... through a friend of a friend... of a friend.

I may not like the Greek team, but I don't agree with that second yellow for Katrouranis. That was barely a foul and certainly not a yellow. Edit: Japan are pretty good at creating chances for themselves, but they have a glaring deficiency in the ability to finish.
