    3 defenders available on the first day of the season. Well done Arsenal..... could be a long year. Time to get absolutely wasted.

    Great start to the season - Walters is awful at PK's, not sure why Stoke let him take them. That said, a draw would have been undeserved for Stoke. Hope they get relegated this season...

    Ya I'm seeing that now w/ the lvl 5+ mobs, I was more speaking to character dodge, which I don't care for. Like the world design as well - wish that jump/movement was tighter ala WOW, but its a minor complaint. Really enjoying this.

    First hours thoughts - awesome music... like, awesome. Pretty boring for the first 5 levels, but its starting to open up a little bit more. I actually enjoy the "WOW" combat and no dodging bullshit, etc.... different strokes I guess. Fun game so far.

    God damn, wake up to pictures of Suarez all smiles and in training. What an absolute cluster-fuck of a summer by The Arsenal. Never thought Suarez was heading to London anyways, but I definitely didn't expect to see him back with the squad so soon. Gustavo signed for Wolfsburg today as well...

    It isn't the worst I've seen, but I hate the shoulder design. It's also a few shades too dark.

    Sweet news on Musketeer. I guess if we pre-ordered post 7/31/13, and didn't participate in any of the previous Beta's we'll have to wait to download the client Saturday.... going to suck if we've got to spend all morning downloading it when the floodgates open, but c'est la vie.

    Double edged sword really - roll on Gilgamesh (my choice certainly), and you run the risk of queues, more terribads than normal (debateable), and lag etc - but WHEN the population faces the first of its sharp declines, we'll be in better shape than those on the smaller servers. Roll on a low pop...

    If they go into the season as is, and start as poorly as they have in recent seasons I fear you may be right... which would be a shame really, given all he's done for the club. I do however, think he knows how the fans and supporters feel - and he knows more than anyone how much pressure is on...

    Comments are almost exactly the same as they were with Torres, so never say never. He's a proven retard. That said, I DO think his stance on selling to Arsenal is untenable - but selling to Madrid, etc seems possible (regardless what he says). Seems silly for Liverpool to try to hold on to an...

    Anyone have any experience with Pugilist? Thinking about buying this, but if the melee dps class stinks I'll probably pass. Hard to find any concrete info on this as well - like if I buy this now/pre-order, will I be able to get into P4 Beta? I hope that if choosing the Pugilist as my class...

    Love the Liverpool fans who've cheered him, defended him, and stuck up for him during all of his drama - only to turn on him today after a single interview. I'd have turned on him in June, when he categorically stated he didn't want to be at Pool any longer. Much like I did with RVP last summer...

    After reading the ESPN interview with JFF and his parents, it sounds like his old man is definitely just as fucking stupid as the son. Pretty remarkable turnaround from last fall, when he was ESPN's golden boy. Can't believe this autograph thing is real though - rich parents, etc. This story...

    Man, the second string Dolphin team really sucks. Randle doing well running it tonight - happy for him. Not sure if he'll get many minutes during the season, but he's a decent backup/3rd string guy to have.

    According to twitter, the founder/CEO of Storybricks has been cruising this thread this weekend reading all of our bullshit. I'm sure the relationship between them and SOE isn't a partnership as much as its SOE paying Storybricks for access to their tech - but still interesting nonetheless. By...

    You have no tangible proof it's a solid game. Theidea'sare solid (mostly, some not so much), but that is literally all we can infer from this glorified tech demo. They have been at it for 2 years, and don't have a game to play yet. You're inferring its a good game (or will be a good game) from...

    And they've been at "this version" of the game for over 2 years. Really makes you wonder what the fuck they've been up to.... I'm sure its "making emergent, revolutionary AI DUH!"..... Derp.

    Also, why aren't ANY of these cock-gobbling "journalists" asking real, hard-hitting, important questions? I get this is a fan-faire and not Nuremberg, but I haven't seen or read a single quote or instance of a journalist asking something even mildly controversial - which is odd, because this...

    The average MMO's their developers have worked on is 3. Thats a lot. No shit Smed? How many of those weren't pieces of shit? Wait, none? Literally, nobody on your team has made anything legitimately good? Brilliant! Lets get all these guys in a room and design an "emergent" MMO!!!!!!!!!!!11111!!!

    LOL "According to Spanish network Cadena Ser, Bale has not left his home all day and has told Levy he will only leave his house to sign for Real Madrid." There is absolutely no way this is true, right? RIGHT? That is the funniest/stupidest thing I've ever read.

    Something just occurring to me - they scrapped their previous plans, and started what we're looking at right now in 2011... Why is all we're seeing a glorified tech demo? In two years, they don't have anything to show us? No UI (even if its an early version), only 2 races/classes? I'm sure they...

    Read Suarez is the only Liverpool player not to attend Gerrards post-match dinner. Also read that 5pur2 lost again today, by that very famous - always enjoyable scoreline. Pre-season blah blah blah, still enjoyable. Reports of 105m for Bale, in several 20m installments. Absolutely fucking crazy.

    Agreed 100%, though they probably aren't interested in the opinions of jaded old fuckers like us.

    Understand that, but this isn't fucking EQ the MOBA and it isn't a card game. They're (supposedly) making an MMO. If you all trust these chimps to make the most intelligent AI ever implemented into a game - be my guest. I'd bet every dollar in my bank account that they won't, and can't. The...
