NHL
I knew Bryzgalof was a great pickup, but I didn't think he'd turn them into a Stanley Cup contender in one season. I don't even know who is in net for Detroit. Is it Conklin?

What are you playing now?
I picked up Mount & Blade: Warband on Steam. So far I only notice a nice graphical upgrade, but the more I play, the more new stuff I am sure I will discover. I forgot how hard it is at the start though. I am pretty weak.

NHL
I've been very surprised by the Coyotes play. I haven't seen any of the games, but I really expected Detroit to run away with that one.

Apple says: If you want porn, get an Android
I'd imagine you can still go on adult sites and stream video with your 3G connection, so it's not all that much of a censorship.

Odd Thought
I don't really get the humor.

RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS THREAD!
I've played a few of the more obscure ones like Hammer and Sickle. I bet this forum combined has covered every title on that list.

US Gun control
I'm not a fan of guns, in fact I kind of despise them. But I live out in the country and I would be stupid not to have one around. Nt only do we have coyotes and boar, we have people that wander on to our property to steal stuff because they think no one lives on the property. Given the Sheriff response time is around 10 to 15 minutes, a couple warning shots are the most effective deterrent.

I finally got the forums up and running somewhat correctly and have started activating accounts.

New Syndicate game
I loved Syndicate. I particularly liked that you could take a lot of time setting up in a sector before you made your move. You could position your troops and vehicles as perfectly as possible before you sprung your attack.

What you did today
I'm pretty happy with the reception of my webcomic project at my school, and so I'm going to move forward with a lunchtime club. I already have a few students submitting strips, and I will be working with them to get them featured on my site.

I'd trust Commander Shephard with my child.

NHL
I'm a bit shocked by the goal, but these things happen. The fact the Sharks spent the last two periods in the offensive zone and never managed to get it in goal is more perplexing. It was like a force field was up of something.

I'm really not sure what to say. The Sharks seem to be destined to make legends out of opposing goaltenders.

Movies you have seen recently
The Informant - Very good. Just wonderfully entertaining, but definitely makes me want to know more about the whole story.

Hmm when i was buying expansions on release date, they did not give away free month... if they changed it i do not know... I've never bought an expansion that didn't give you a free month. I know Burning Crusade gave one. Here they say the same what i was saying, neither BC nor WotLK had no free month... http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qi...18170223AAajpCM http://world-of-warcraft.brighterplanet.or...th-a-free-month http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/genmessage....;topic=46712730 http://www.amazon.com/free-month-with-WoTL...asin=B000VJTJNE Weird. I suppose Blizzard can get away with that, so why not?

NHL
The Sharks top line is currently -2 in the playoffs. I will breathe easier if they can figure out a way to get back in the positive. I'm not sure why Volourn is getting worked up though, I'd say it is pretty reasonable to be concerned when a team's top line is not producing a positive goal ratio, particularly when Thornton and Marleau had the same issues last year in the playoffs.

Play Ball
It won't last long. What a ray of sunshine. The Nats are a solid team this year. I think they will flirt with .500 for most of the year.

WoW is the king for good reason. It is an extremely polished MMO. I'm really starting to chafe at my lousy internet connection. I miss my short forays into different MMO's.

New XCOM game
No screenshots and a December release date? Unlikely.

Actually the Sharks top line still didn't look great last night. None of them have scored a goal yet. It will be hard to win the series if that doesn't change.

Socialist candidate gets 16% of the vote in Long Beach, CA
There are actually benefits to running for election even in a lost cause. I'm no expert on them, but I believe that when you reach a certain percentage of the vote you gain benefits in future elections. I remember that was the big reason Ralph Nader always ran, it allowed his party to take part in other political events if he garnered like 5% of the vote.

I forgot about the Euro factor, that is an issue I believe. EQ2 was the only game I remember being able to choose to play on the UK servers. But EQ2 is an insane game.
