And yet, just when you think we couldn't, we manage to find new ways to suck.

Garcia pitching. -the blog not giving up yet Our "give up" line-up is actually probably better than the one we keep throwing out. Anyway, my last game of the year that I will be attending. Can't wait!

I've never been closer to tears over a sports team than tonight over this pathetic display and a come to the realization that we are not making the play-offs(Even know I should have come to this conclusion before).

mother f***ing god damnit stupid mother f***ing sox.

And I was looking forward to my tickets on Wednesday for the longest frickin time.

QUOTE(DABearSoX @ Sep 19, 2006 -> 01:25 AM) well just got in and havent even turned on the TV yet....ha I wanted to come here first to see what I should expect We managed to set the bar even lower for the rest of season expectations.

You can't make this stuff up anymore.

Only to f***ing us.

The season turnaround we so desperatly need? I can only dream...

Atleast the SoxFest Q&A's will be fun again.

Funny how this thread kind of slowed after this weekend.

I got similar seats for Wednesday but cannot attend. Maybe a trade?

I LOLed at DJ's actual excitement that it only hit off the wall rather than it going out of the park.

QUOTE(The Ginger Kid @ Sep 17, 2006 -> 09:45 PM) while I'm happy for Frank, I am so glad to see his sorry ass on another team. As opposed to the nonsense that we have on offense now?

Hawk talking like he is right now has pretty much put my hope percentage at 0.

Is it ok to laugh yet?

Nice At bat there!

I've racked up a lot of posts here, but this is my first ever gamethread. Hopefully we kick it off on a good note.

QUOTE(Steve9347 @ Sep 15, 2006 -> 04:14 PM) i can't see it competing with PS3 or X360 I'd say it will. It'll basically run the monopoly of home video game systems in Japan. This will lead to the Japanese developers to jump on(although most are already on), which will help out in other regions. For US/Europe, if the DS, which is the best selling system ever, is an any indication, thatn I'll say it'll do just fine. Over the years, they seemed to have gathered up a nice marketing department and are reaching out to the demographics that usually don't play video games.

QUOTE(BobDylan @ Sep 15, 2006 -> 05:45 AM) Nintendo has never really made games that break the bend. They have Mario, Metroid Prime and Zelda...outside of that they rarely, if ever, have a big hit. Mario Zelda Metroid Smash Brothers Donkey Kong Pikmin Nintendogs Pokemon The Touch Genration Series Brain Training/Brain Academy Animal Crossing To name just a few. Nintendo has more franchises than any other gaming comany in the world. And all of these ether created its own genre or made great innovations in its genre to help these games sell millions and millions of copies. Sony are the ones who make the pretty straight forward games(Not really a bad thing, either). Microsoft doesn't really have any good 1st party games to speak of, hold Halo.

I do.

$249.99 on November 19(launching head-to-head with PS3. Nice move.) One remote, and One nunchuck will be packaged in. (Dissapointing, I'd say. Should be 2 Wiimotes in there since some games will require it. Also, no Virtual Console Controller?) Wii Sports will be packaged in and Bowling and Boxing have been added to the package to bring it up to 5 sports. (Awesome! Can't remember the last time someone packaged in a game at launch.) Over 25 Launch games(Again, Awesome! Nintendo showing early that it can easily take the gen's software race.) Virtual Console Prices: N64- 10$ SNES- 8$ NES- 5$ (Just about everyone saw this coming) 49.99$ max on new games.(Expected, but still good). Wiimote-40$ Nunchuck-20$ Virtual Console Controller-20$ (Again, about expected) Photo channel was announced to come in the system. This will be used for sharing digital photos. Wii will also come with it's own channels. This will include a weather channel, a news channel and a "Mii Channel. (This is very odd, but potentially very cool. A game system has never done anything like this.) The Opera will be the standard browser for internet viewing.
