Seriously though, I'm about two hours into Dust and I have yet to run into a character that is sexualized. I think people are really overreacting, just because it has anthropomorphized animals doesn't make it some furry sploogefest.

I turned it off when the squirrel with anime eyes showed up. I figured if that was the first character they were going to show it was only going to get worse.

Part of he misunderstanding is that the squirrel-thing's paws look like boobs.

but I am a sheep
Alright now that it is not really late and assuming most are awake now, anyone have a 48 hour code lying around so I can give the demo a shot? Actually thinking of picking it up based on peoples impressions, but I rarely see terrible impressions for Madden on GAF.

According to FMT I need see how glorious the 49ers are. haha

There will also be a G3 Free Gold Weekend event on Xbox LIVE starting August 18th (it might be US only though, I’m not sure) where you can raise money for the Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals via sponsored gaming and if you don’t already have Xbox LIVE Gold it will be free for that weekend.

Play Madden 12. That's pretty much the demo. There isn't anything crazy revolutionary about the gameplay. The play screens are uglier and apparently the physics are better but I couldn't tell. Seems the major revamp went into the off the field stuff this iteration, which isn't in the demo.

Er, the ability in the demo to sell out certain ways (play the pass, run left/middle/right) much like in NCAA... That's new to M13, right? Or did M12 have it and I not know for a year?

How do you do this in the demo? I knew it was in M13 but no combination of button presses presnap brought it up for me.

That throwing stick stunt of yours has boomeranged on us.

left trigger plus a direction on the right stick pre snap.

I don't think those 48 hour codes give you full gold priveledges anymore.


on hot routes, right stick to the sideline was changed to a z route, any other hot route changes?

There is quite a difference in the passing game. Wouldn't expect you to notice since you are one of the worst passers in the league even though you have the highest rated qb in the league!

Just trying to emulate Harbaugh.

Also I traded him after the first season last year. Your point stands either way.

Good thing I only spent 3 bucks on F33333333333333333333AR. Me and DM are on the last mission and we haven't even played the game for 4 hours. Looks like the campaign is maybe 5 hours plus change total. Game is fun, though!

Playing FF13 again from where I left off, and its really not that bad. Yeah, I said it

And reading your demo impressions makes me so jealous. Fuck you at&t. Been stringing me along for days saying you might show to activate my internet. Not pleased

Couldn't you host your own server? Not that you'd get loot then, though. Also if you had an actual party of 6 I'm sure you'd get in fast
