CB, I think I'm going to the UMD basketball game tonight. It's at 8pm EST. I probably won't be around until 12ish and even at that, I will probably go to sleep since it's late. Any chance we can play earlier in the day (if FMT advances)?

Barring a catastrophic injury situation, Xavier Waters will be riding the bench all season, so no need to keep track of his stats. All he's doing is returning punts and kicks for now. My 7th round and UDFA receivers are too good to bench. What sucks is that I'd put him in if I was involved in a blowout game to get some XP but I can't pass in a blowout lol.

Stupid me, that was a waste of a first rounder. The OLers I wanted were gone and so were the WRs. I should have taken a top tier LB or the top safety.

Oh well. On the plus side my receiver situation is now solved for the rest of the franchise between Apo, Leopard, and Quick.

Halo 4 opens up lower than Halo 3 and Halo Reach for the opening week in the UK:

There are only two more event titles to come this year, with ‘Black Ops II’ next week and ‘Hitman Absolution’ the following week – this total of 18 event games in 2012 is a record, up from 11 games in 2011. ‘Halo 4’ sold slightly more units than last week’s PS3/360 ‘Assassin’s Creed III’ (itself an event title from Wednesday 31st October) and ‘Halo 4’ ranks as the 18th biggest SKU launch in terms of week 1 units, but does not beat 2007’s ‘Halo 3’ (15th biggest SKU) or indeed 2010’s ‘Halo: Reach’ (12th biggest SKU). Ubisoft’s ‘Assassin’s Creed III’ drops to No2 (-73%), ahead of EA’s ‘FIFA 13’ at No3 (-13%). EA’s ‘Need For Speed: Most Wanted’ at No4 (-28%) exchanges places with Sega’s ‘Football Manager 2013’, now No5 (-47%).

Is this why MS has been quiet on numbers? Their most expensive game ever made and sales can't top the previous versions.

There were a couple Halo 4 commercials during the Bears/Texans game last night. It's a good thing you missed them because they are horrible. The commercial is attempting an epic feel but it comes off as a completely cheesy, amateur hour production.

For those looking for a WiiU and don't have one pre ordered, hit up Best Buy launch day. I guess stores are starting to get shipments, and they will have more systems than pre orders they took.

Also, gamestop will have more systems than their pre order allotment as well. I don't know if you'll be able to find a deluxe, but finding a Wii U launch day may not be a problem if you head out early.

Edit: Wow, the Halo community thread is a blood bath. 343 am cry. Were Halo OTs always this vicious? We are tame compared to them.

Lol. Halo had a good run. Bring back firefight, jerks!

They got split up. You now have half that have to protect the Bungie hive and half that have to protect the Halo name.

Oh, and then there's the "we're OG Halo cru, y'all ain't shit" brigade.

That throwing stick stunt of yours has boomeranged on us.

you passed on a good center with your second first round pick, I regret not grabbing him with my second, but I had signed someone in free agency.

Chris Kemoeatu has been giving up a lot of pressure since the preseason, so Kendrick Rose is going to get his first start tonight at LG. Excited to see what he can do.

Also, Robert Meachem and Eddie Royal are available for trade if anyone needs a receiver.

They really, really, really, really, really, really suck

Turns out the experts and Las Vegas oddsmakers were right about the Chicago Bears, at least for now. They can't handle an opponent of consequence. The defense can't count on scoring every single game and the offense still operates like something out of the 1950s.

Yes the Bears. Still. Suck.

Me too. I've been kicking some butt recently... I was 300 kills higher than deaths at one point last night... but then I ran into some trouble late at night. I think I've finally reached some challenging games. I was getting wrecked and getting so frustrated.

Bears were 28th in total offense with Pouty McDiabetes, it's going to be hard for Campbell to actually do any worse. This was a blessing. At least Checkdown won't turn the ball over as much.

It's alright. Just need the Bears defense to score another 7 tds in the second half of the regular season. They got robbed of one last night.

Brett Vincent? Yeah I regret not taking him. I ended up with the C that was projected to go first, Jordan Lonas and I play him at LG. I'd have preferred Vincent but Lonas started out with 90 IBL and good spd/acc for pulling, so I'm ok with that. Good draft for my O with Lonas, Vogler, Greenwood, and Apo.

Can anyone tell me who the Packers play? I have to go to Lousiville for potentially a couple days tomorrow morning and while I will bring my 360, I've never once found a hotel where that shit actually works.

i found a way to make it work at hotels but you may have to play at bad hours cause of hotel internet traffic
