I missed all the Boy Meets World talk....Mr. Matthews.

You ruined it when you sold NHL. You brought this on yourself!

 

[Ferny]

25 hours in Dont Starve BigAT?

You can thank me for that.

 

[Sanjuro]

Nobody played the game!

Nobody plays anything!

Might as well just throw the microphone away!

Detention, Mr. Matthews.

But seriously, it was like a two week break. I've never seen MaddenGAF so coordinated when they traded the game in. You guys left Pheenix, Crow, and I hanging! I don't want to see that happen... EVER AGAIN.

 

[Sokantish]

They left me hanging too, McNeily. I still have it!

 

[McNei1y]

You might as well have traded it in because you hate us!

SPELUNKEY

Yeah, I played that as well but it just didn't grab me as much as the others did. I think it felt unfair in some ways at times that goes beyond the difficulty that usually is associated with that type of game.

I think its pretty fair. There are certainly times where the randomization fucks you real good, but thats part of the thing about "rougelikes" or whatever you'd wanna call those type of games.

 

[eznark]

So who's up for a monaco 4pack?

I watched the lets play on StrategyForce. I'm in if you get it.

And a brief reveal trailer showing the most accurate depiction of the Packers defense ever:

[eznark]

Remember when the Packers held Sanders to -2 yards in basically the only meaningful game he ever played in? That was rad.

Remember when the packers allowed a qb making his first ever playoff start to rush for like 500 yards? Lulz

 

[ph33nix]

If I get PS+ for a year does that mean the free games I download last only as long as my membership?

 

[Sokantish]

Yes

 

[ph33nix]

Well that sucks

 

[Sokantish]

No ph33nix it's a really good deal. Don't you understand? You get all those games for free! And you only have to pay a monthly fee to get them!

 

[Rorschach]

Wow, they're actually bringing back my control of the runner? Used to love being able to decide whether to truck, turbo, spin, side-step, etc or all of the above. Corner? You're getting trucked! DL? Outrunning you! LB? Here comes the juke! Those were the days when you worked for your evaded tackles instead of people just sliding off at random. I bet they don't leave in truck because of the new NFL rules.

Barry Sanders is cool!

Well that sucks

Don't quit the service. This is what Sony is banking on.

Whatever, where's my Bo Jackson cover?

Flashes in the pan don't get covers. Next you'll be begging for a Christian Okoye cover.

 

[Rorschach]

Amen. Bo knows Madden.

 

[eznark]

Don't Starve is awesome.

 

[Sanjuro]

Don't Starve is awesome.

I saw you playing it on my Steam thingy, watched a video on it from their main site. Looks pretty interesting.

 

[eznark]

Been playing it all day. I usually hate these "drop into a world and survive!" games but something about it is really working for me.

 

[eznark]

Fuck I finally finished my placement matches and was placed in Silver League. I think I only ever won a single ladder game in WoL. Clearly I have taken to protoss way more than terran. Also, fuck yeah!

 

[McNei1y]

When are we playing HOTS together friend.

 

[eznark]

I play an hour or so every night around 10:30.

 

[Trasher]

I wish I could watch your games.

 

[eznark]

I usually play the AI. I've gotten totally passable with a pinch of moronic. I still don't scout enough and I feel like I need to cheese more. Also, I'm still definitely a bronze league player.

 

[McNei1y]

I play an hour or so every night around 10:30.

Hooray. I'll make sure to remember that.

Actual EA quote about M25: "We’ve also added in combo moves with the right analog stick, almost like you’re playing ‘Street Fighter'."

So does the defense have counters?

[storybook77]

Push the right stick left for a right arm tackle, right for a left arm tackle, down for a wrap-up tackle, and up for a big illegal hit!

EA should team up with Rare to get that dude from Killer Instinct to scream out ULTRAAAA COMBO when you do something awesome or C-C-C-C-C-C-COMBO BREAKER when you lay the lumber to an RB trying to get cute.

I bet you get more XP points if you string together combos because that's how real life running backs get better at their position.

I've made it all the way to high plat league with little to no scouting. I scout for proxy stuff after my gateway, and I'll send my first observer to the enemy base. Once it dies, I usually don't bother sending another. Most of my wins are just purely on macro.
