People in here talk shit all the time about The Order but that doesn't stop Splat from being our best friend!

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that The Order will have a better reception than Destiny. I'm not saying it'll be a good reception, just a better one.

I feel like this thread was generally very positive on Destiny for like a month. Christ I still try to get people to play it!

Fuck the Knicks, just nuke the whole organization into oblivion.

I have to admit it is really weird not seeing the Yankees retain their home grown talent. People like to give the Yankees shit for buying up free agents (which they do) but during the 90s when they were really good they benefited heavily from a core they developed internally.

Letting Robertson go is a little more defensible because he's a reliever and locking them up to long term contracts is usually not a great idea. I don't fault them for not paying the same bananas amount of money that the Mariners did on Cano, they spread that money across multiple players (including Ellsbury who is pretty dang good) so its not like they lost him and did nothing.

Well that's really been the problem. I agree with letting Phil Hughes and Joba walk, Robertson always had me nervous, the LOB kind.

Hopefully for my sanity's sake Ellsbury, McCann, and Beltran perform up to normal standards.

So is Driveclub worth picking up now?

I love Horizon 2, but I want more of a "real" racing game if that makes sense? I love the look of it and even more so now that weather was added. It also sounds like Evolution are doing a lot to keep adding to the game, etc.

Are clubs working now and we have one going?

GG Greg! I thought those deep passes were open a couple times and you got there just in time to intercept it, you tricked me

I started to double Jones - tired of that piece of shit beating me!

I think I have the worst 2-minute defense of all time for real

From what I hear, Driveclub isn't "sim" really. If you mean more track based and all that, then yeah I guess it's more real.

I don't know why I've had so much luck on defense this year but its nice this year not having to worry about having to score on every single drive. Last year I had like the worst defense in the league I think

To me it sounds like Luke's contribution is the only good part of Destiny.

Fangraphs right now has you guys project as 4th best in the AL East but the margin is pretty close: http://www.fangraphs.com/depthcharts.aspx?position=Standings#AL-E

That infield is pretty. I wonder if the plan is to try and collect talent while weathering the end of Texeira/A-Rod and then go from there. The Yankees have been doing some interesting things with international signings.

GOTY, and the weather update is some next level shit

I took these yesterday - same weather condition setting in both, but one is set 6 hours later. Aside from the obvious visibility difference, the track gets even slicker at night which I wasn't expecting:

clubs are working, but they only allow 6 members... I think we still have 1 slot left in ours, but I'm not sure if Smokey ever joined back at launch

Luke will come back to us eventually. We'll all forgive once Destiny 2 is out and the first game issues are corrected.

Also, any of these Double Fine early access games worth buying?

http://store.steampowered.com/sale/doublefinedaily

Eying Hack and Slash and/or Massive Chalice.

Or should I skip those games and go straight for the Talos Principle.

Do you like playing unfinished, broken, half baked messes that will never improve?

Wait you play Madden, so the answer is yes ;-)

Brad sold me on Massive Chalice during Childs Play, I'll probably pick that up tonight.

Pretty sure we've been playing smash online atleast every other night since it came out.

The audacity of these guys to keep coming back for more after i dismantle them is admirable.

CB, you're so lucky I don't feel like buying a Wii U game until Xenoblade Chronicles X comes out.

Or else you'd have to beat me too

Does weather not work in normal races Greg? I played like an hour last night and never saw snow or anything.

since leaderboards are tied to the events, you won't see any weather in the 3 sets of single player events that are out right now

you can manually set up weather yourself on any track as a single event, or select challenges/online events that have it set already

That is for the season pass. I think it is $11.99? You get 16 tracks and a bunch of other stuff. Second part of the season pass is out in May I believe.

I was trying to get everybody to put down their halos and dotas to play the new Mario Kart tracks but nobody would!

I will be using mine till the next console comes out. Smash on the Wii didn't last cause the online was so awful but this shit has so much staying power

And AZ, shelling out that money is well worth it. the tracks are great, and 16 new ones it's almost like a new game

Still?

Remember when Hiroshi Yamauchi said that online gaming is a fad? That was back with XBL so it wasn't like PSX adapter modem style.

Those were the days.Apparently still are!
