QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Mar 4, 2010 -> 03:13 PM) Heavy Rain was the s***. I finished it last night. It's actually crazy the many different ways the story is ending for different people. It also lets you go back and replay certain scenes to see what you could have done differently. I don't think I'll play it again, though, but on the difficulty setting I was on it took a bit over 10 hours of gameplay. I just traded it to Gamestop for $40 and picked up an oldie I'd never played (GTA IV) and NBA 2k10 to improve my collection. Not a huge fan of NBA2k10. I thought 2k9 was better. I hate the automatic post up and animations they have. Also, My Player mode is long and redundant. Honestly, it's not much fun at all. Just feels like more of a task. I love GTA IV though. Too many people give it hate because they expected it to be the most awesome game that will ever be invented. It's a great game.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 3, 2010 -> 09:34 PM) VDN played him what, 27 minutes for a game last friday, right before he had to start sitting out again? So like 3 6 minute games and a 27 minute one when fans and JN were both demanding more minutes. Wasn't Friday's game an OT one?

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Mar 4, 2010 -> 11:48 AM) On a side note, did anyone else think that the Washington Park Olympic stadium was never going to be torn down? I was convinced it was going to be a second... larger.... NFL stadium. I was hoping we got the Olympics and it wasn't. Then again, the plan for the stadium was cheap material and very bland so they could turn it into a much smaller venue. Either way, I would be on board. That second team would be my 2nd favorite behind the Cowboys. I'd actually go to their games. But alas, the Bears really did drop the ball on the Soldier Field stuff. I remember Daley wanted a retractable stadium that was much larger so he could host a bunch of stuff like the NCAA tourney, another football team etc. And then he one time wanted one of the McCormick places converted which I think would've worked. Either way, I don't see Chicago getting another football team.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Mar 3, 2010 -> 06:24 AM) The goal is to make yourself a better person for yourself, not to win her back over. Blake I'm gonna be honest, to me it looks like you are setting yourself up for a serious heartbreak. Its like you are pushing it off and think it wont happen if A and B and C are followed through. "The one who got away" is the one who left you, and keeps insisting on this quasi-single appearance and attitude. You are better than that. If she wants to go, let her go. Dont feel bad because you messed around with some skank, thats what happens when you first break up with someone. FTW!

If it all connects, how come Jin in the future cannot speak English when the Jin in the past can?

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Mar 4, 2010 -> 09:48 AM) Huh. After it started cycling through the Mauer and Milestones ones for a 3rd time I gave up. Good to know. Thanks. Yep, it was actually the first video I saw when I started up the game. Originally, I was like, "Wow, how did they know I was a Sox fan" until I realized it was just random. I've seen it about 3 times now. I've seen the Mauer one once, the Milestones twice. BTW, anyone got tips on hitting? I don't know how to lay off a pitch at all. Everything looks good until I swing at it to find out it was a head high fastball or a slider low and away. I'm playing Road To The Show and the only thing keeping me from dominating is me swinging at everything. I'm batting .368 with 3 HR's and 9 RBI's through 20 games with a slugging percentage of .564, but my OBP is .368 as well because I can't take a walk. I'm the #4 hitter for the vaunted Tigers' AA team, the Erie Seadogs.

I think a lot of Vernon Davis developing had to do with Mike Singletary as well. I'm not saying Martz's system didn't partake in Vernon not being a beast, but I think a lot more had to do with Vernon's maturity. Regardless, Olsen was a major bust. He's not really a TE. Just a big WR. At the time though, I thought it was a good pick for the Bears because he seemed to be BPA.

And people here and other places were bashing VDN for taking it easy with Noah to win a few more games. Obviously the guy is hurting enough where he couldn't make it past a few 6 minute games without feeling the ill effects.

Anyone know how to download the official roster updates?

Got the game at Target at 9am by my house. It was the last copy left and they were only open for 5 minutes. I lucked out.

QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Oct 23, 2009 -> 04:54 PM) Strictly on the season, Bulls beat 38-44. Barely miss playoffs. Deng is dung. Salmons barely misses the all-star game, Rose makes all-star team, people call for VDN's head, and Bulls look to dump Tyrus at least at the break. BTW, Boozer will be the biggest name traded. At least I was partially right. Rose made all-star team, people still calling for VDN's head, Bulls looked to dump Ty Thomas and did, Deng is starting to become a ballhog though.

Whatever you do, let your personality just fly after initiating the conversation. If she's turned off, you'll end up having to act fake for her. If she likes you, you're as good as golden. Always be confident about the person you are, add a little of cockyness, but always remain respectful and fun.

The easiest way I've found is to talk about borrowing notes to start it off. I've always done this and have never walked away with less than an email address to chat on later.

QUOTE (G&T @ Mar 1, 2010 -> 02:18 PM) What is this? Your Age / 2 = X X + 7 = Y Y = If the girl is suitable to date. Also works vice versa. Basically if the person you're dating is less than Y in terms of age, then it's going to be awkward, not work out and not worth it because you will have too few things in common. If you're the younger person and your age is less than y, you guys shouldn't date still.

QUOTE (knightni @ Mar 1, 2010 -> 12:44 PM) SD is letting Sproles go too. Who's their running back in '10? Thomas Jones

I actually kind of like it.

20/2 = 10 10 + 7 = 17 17 > 16. That mean's she's a no go. Maybe in a year or two Crypt.

Yeah it's the internal clock. People who upgraded their hard drive from what I've heard aren't having any problems so far. Basically, if you're is messed up, any games that require trophies will not play. Someone told me a work around until it does get fixed is to go to settings, disable internet and adjust the date and time. Once you do, you can play offline

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Feb 28, 2010 -> 07:55 PM) I figure I should clarify this a bit. Talking about the same girl originally, I've taken the advice to some extent, but I've still been hanging out with her quite a bit, and everything was going great. It felt like we were moving in the right direction and everything was going swimmingly, and it felt like we were back together. Then on Thursday, she drops this "I like being single and being able to flirt" line, and I got pissed. So I basically just followed this other girl home, and we talked for a while, and then started making out. Called her up last night again after the original girl was ignoring me, and we made out, some clothes came off, and we did basically everything other than f***. I'm OK with moving on, but I just did it poorly, and I feel terrible about it. I don't even care about this girl, and I care so much about the other. I'm stuck in this idealistic romantic mindset that me and the original girl will get everything worked out, we'll get hitched and ride into the sunset on a white horse. I was just confused, and now I'm depressed too. This is good. In the meantime, keep this girl who you're making out with, at least on the side. Honestly, it's going to take some time to get the original girl off of your mind. At the same time, she's going to say and do s*** that'll make you say, "Wow, this is how you really are" now that you are outside of the relationship zone with this girl. You may think you love her and she just needs time to see that she loves you. It ain't going to work that way though. She's gonna slut around and come to you when she feels lonely, she's drunk, or she gets rejected until you flat out don't allow it.

If you got an older fat PS3, don't turn on your PS3. Some major s*** is going on causing it to not play any games.

wow!

I've heard 2k's been getting pretty darn good reviews. Last year I didn't buy a baseball game because I don't like the button pushing for pitches/batting. That's one feature that 2k did do right in 2k8. They shortened it though which kind of made me mad. Either way, it makes pitching challenging. Plus now, 2k is giving away a million dollars to whoever can throw a perfect game on the hardest difficulty level first. You can't adjust the rosters or edit players though. I'm going to play both and see which one is better. I really really want to play The Road to The Show as a catcher though.

Lower Merion is where Kobe went to school. Kinda crazy.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Feb 23, 2010 -> 07:44 PM) If they could take the Sears Center and dump it over by that industrial area that is for sale near the Clybourn Metra stop, it would be the perfect venue for DePaul basketball. Where it is, makes no sense. Its actually a real nice small arena. Is that in Lincoln Park where that industrial company was until they decided to move I think more south? I read they were thinking about making a stadium there, but parking would be tight and there's only one way in and out. It would be beaufitful off the river though.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Feb 23, 2010 -> 06:04 PM) Right, the Bears will draw wherever they would be located most likey, but I also think they are the least likely to move out of the city. They are by far the most popular team in Chicago, and are more symbolic of the city than any other teams here. They would never let them leave. Quoted For Truth. Cubs also won't leave, but it's because they actually do need Wrigleyville.
