    NBA 2012-13 Season Thread - Crown The Heat!

    You still got to go for it. If anyone can make him change it's Rick Carlisle. Dwight is the exact type of center that you need to put beside Dirk.

    MLB 2013 season

    The Rangers have the only starting rotation that has never played another inning for a Major league organization besides their own, and the same can be said for 10 of their 13 pitchers overall. They have the lowest team ERA in the Majors as of Monday. It only took 5 years for JD to turn the...

    2013 NFL Offseason and Draft

    It's still too soon to say Garrett is or isn't a good head coach. The players definitely play harder for him than they did Wade, and the last 3 drafts he's had input on have turned out pretty good (Dez, Sean Lee, Bruce Carter, Tyron Smith, Claiborne, etc). He's managed to get rid of all the...

    Much more exciting matchup than last year's retread. If Spurs win another title they take the crown from the Lakers as the best post-Jordan dynasty.

    So grats Spurs on the Finals I guess? Isn't that same injury that kept MWP out for 15 days or so?

    2013 NFL Offseason and Draft

    He looked his same unemotional self to me. Tom Cichowski was definitely pissed though. I'm not saying trading back was the best move, just arguing that the move they did make (or if they lost value by not getting a 2nd from SF instead of 3rd) and the guy they ended up picking wasn't as bad as...

    2013 NFL Offseason and Draft

    Yeah sure, good job grading the draft before it's even finished. Focus more on the need they filled instead of any perceived value they lost by trading back - Sharif Floyd wasn't starting over Ratliff or Hatcher - they NEED 3 starters on Offensive line. He was the best center in the draft (who...

    2013 NFL Offseason and Draft

    He was rated as going in the 24-30 range before the Combine, and the Cowboys personally worked him out and had him #22 on their board. It wasn't as big a reach as you people are making it out to be. Both Pete Konz and Kevin Zeitler from Wisconsin were considered "reaches" in the first round last...

    2013 NFL Offseason and Draft

    I wish they would of stayed at 18 and drafted a DT, but the guy they drafted is the best center in the draft (who can play both guard positions), and Wisconsin linemen don't bust. I really wanted them to take an O-linemen in the first round and they did so I can't be too mad - the Cowboys...

    Puzzles and Dragons is one of the few mobile games that is free AND you can play and have fun without having to drop a dime into it. That should give it a bit of longevity. It's also not obnoxious about spamming you with ads. Wii U has it's own online system now, if I can't internet matchmake...

    There was already a quite a bit of endgame content introduced in subsequent patches of version 1.0 of the game, I don't see them totally scrapping all that stuff, It will be reintroduced in some way.

    They've already made all their announcements prior to E3 via Nintendo Direct - but they will still be present with playable Wii U versions of Mario Kart, Smash Bros, and maybe the new 3D Mario game. Should be some more concrete dates and title announcements at TGS in September - hopefully some...

    Seems like everyone is looking to move down, might mean someone could move up a few spots for cheap with just their first rounder + a 4th. Hopefully Jerry does this and makes sure they get one of those two guards.

    They didn't last year either, E3 did a pretty good job of killing itself over the last few years and a lot of JPN devs focus goes towards Tokyo Game Show at end of summer. They'll still have new games there to play.

    Except they have sold more 3DS than they did DS in the same amount of time. Looking at their revenue doesn't tell the whole tale. There are other factors affecting it - like the problems with the Yen and costs of development now vs what they were even 3 years ago. I have no doubt Smartphones...

    Yeah, no. Sure a lot of people bought a DS for Nintendogs and Brain Training (and a lot of educational orgs/schools, which won't move to smartphones). But Nintendo's system sellers on their handhelds are Pokemon, Mario platformers, Mario Kart, and RPGs - none of those are coming to...

    Unless smartphones go backwards tech wise and add tactile controls, they'll never compete as gaming devices with the 3DS and Vita. Also, mobile game studios that are less than 2 years old are already closing left and right. Smartphones are great for quick, easy games between reading your emails...

    Shocker, consoles don't sell when they have few games (two?) worth buying. Nintendo should of just delayed the launch until their game lineup was better, but they knew what was going to happen and still went through with it. Not really a new phenomenon, PS3 and 3DS both went through the same...

    The game runs crazy smooth for easily the best looking MMO inthe biz, and it doesn't look plastic like some of the other "good" graphics MMOs. My PC fans barely increased in speed during play.

    Meh, I love my tablet for couch browsing, reading books, reddit, netflix/crunchyroll and games like Puzzles and Dragons, but it will never be a serious gaming device without tactile controls. I don't see it advancing any more towards a gaming device, especially with all those...

    I don't disagree, as I had the same memories and fun with my guild doing hard stuff like that in games like EQ and WoW. But I started FFXI like a year or so after NA launch so I was always behind and it was always my secondary MMO - I hardly knew anyone who played it and didn't have a dedicated...

    You should get in automatically if your a Legacy user, during Phase 3. That's pretty much how FFXI turned out to be for story, after you advanced in the mission ranks. Some of the later expansion story missions were so ass-rape hard even with a group (really had to have a specific group of...
