lol those 2 sacks were all out blitzes. i had 3 men in coverage both times. it is bullshit in a way but a quick pass via slant or out to the RB and there is a good chance that is a TD. the TD you got to antonio brown was on a similar blitz.... easy TD for 28 yards but you need to get the ball out quick which you did

on the INT i threw that shows why i need to get rid of alex. if i had a QB with 90+ THP the ball would've gotten there quicker, but old noodle arm alex gets it picked. thank god i was getting some good gains with gore because i think i would've lost if i had to put the ball up in the air 20+ times

Well yea, you have little reason to pass when Gore falls forward for 5 yards every time. The game bailed you out at the end of the half, shoulda been a pick!

gore was definitely beasting that game. he seems to do that every few games, but in between i really struggle running. and i did get lucky with that dropped pick! HFA!

not that anyone cares but the wiiU is pretty slick so far. took about an hour to download the update. there is a friends list like XBL/PSN where you can actually add peoples usernames instead of some fucking 25 digit number like it was on Wii. sad that you would consider that something good but this is nintendo.

my main complaint at this point is the menus take forever to load. want to go into a simple settings menu to change something? 10-15 seconds you wait! want to go into miiverse? took like 30 seconds to load! but the layout is nice and basic. the one thing that really annoys me about XBL is there just seems to be a lot of clutter. i know how to navigate where i want to go but its like if i want to go to HBOGO, i have to scroll all the way over through 7 screens, then go to my apps, then find HBO go. just put it all on one fucking screen! that's what i want!

again not that anyone gives a shit but so far its decent!
Bing search and pins are your friends.

Luke what time can you play today

After being knocked out after the Texans game, catching up on those Wii U threads. What a mess of a system launch.

Bob, lets plan to play at halftime. Everyone knows you're the most fairweather bitch in Sports GAF so you'll have no interest in watching Tolzien style on the Bears in the second half.

Since we failed at NHL yesterday, Im down to try tonight!

I'm having people in town from Tuesday-Sunday so after tomorrow I never need to get up early so I'll be down as well for some late night gaming!

Has the Vita update been released yet?

After a night with Wii U, I gotta say I really like the idea of having a screen in my controller. Sure the console isn't that great in terms of horsepower, but I really like this. Hopefully MS and Sony copy it.

Nothing screams "Successful console" like a screen in the controller.

Yea DCX is right, Dreamcast pioneered....everything. RIP, gone from this world too young. :(

Madden 13 on Wii U is pretty good. Drawing the WR routes on the screen is hilarious, but the real valuable addition is quickly assigning defensive adjustments (covering flat zones, blitzing, spying, etc.) Unfortunately, given the layout of the buttons/sticks on the GamePad it takes a while to adjust to be able to play. I haven't had a chance to try out the draft yet; I wonder if it will use the touchscreen somehow.

Dreamcast came to early. The ideas and concepts have been done this gen with great results.

Same with the 3DO.

Immediately thought of the Saturnday ruse when I read that. They were about a decade early on the "oh yeah, it's now right now!" hardware reveal/launch stuff and it was one of the main things that killed the Saturn.

Sega was always ahead of the curve when it came to ideas, they just typically screwed up the follow through.

Dreamcast was amazing. Probably one of my favorite consoles ever; Sega managed that horribly.

Never forget: NFL2K, NBA2K, Crazy Taxi, Virtua Tennis

Less than the number of times LiveWire's friend request gets flashed on screen.

That throwing stick stunt of yours has boomeranged on us.

I won't get home from my burger flipping class till about halftime, so I'll be watching the second half!

Yup, it's cool. Was playing Mario last night during SNF, worked great. Love the sound clarity out of the speakers.

We better get a big Monster Hunting group when Monster Hunter 3rd Ultimate is out in March!
