Re: Formula 1 2012

I'm so glad the season wiped after the first couple races. Being able to go from last to second is pretty cool. I feel like I've pretty much got the hang of balancing drivers, I just wish I could find a way to get rid of Marussia. Also I'm completely clueless when it comes to deciding when to actual...

Re: Formula 1 2012

Hopefully someone can give Vettel a run for his money this year so I'll actually want to watch every race. I signed up but I never even knew Fantasy Formula 1 existed, so we'll see how this goes.

Re: Cinematics & CutScenes enough is enough

I love well done cinematics. They can be very useful for fleshing out story and are often treats for beating a tough boss or getting through a level. I think Bioware handled their cutscenes very well in Mass Effect 2 and you need only show a little patience to experience one of the best games of las...

Re: Enter here for a chance to win a GeForce GTX 560 Ti

Apparently Mirror's Edge doesn't want to let me access my saves right now so I can't take new shots of the more beautiful locations in the game. I still like these though. http://img846.imageshack.us/img846/9945/sedgestaringatthesun.png http://img97.imageshack.us/img97/6157/sedgeyellowroom.png http:...

Re: Favourite Tennis Player

I'm pretty young, so I didn't start watching professional tennis much until a few years ago, but my favorite has to be Roddick. It's not just because he's the best American man or anything, I just love his press conferences. The contrast between him being a smartass all the time, and Federer being t...

Re: Help me pick a racing game

For less realistic racers, especially Burn Out Paradise (which is an amazing game) there is no point in getting a racing wheel and pedals. Even Dirt 2 and GRID, awesome though they may be, won't make great use of a wheel.

Re: StarCraft 2 - significant FPS hit with Protoss Mothership?

Unfortunately I don't know how to solve your performance issues completely but I highly suggest you stop making Motherships. Motherships are easily the worst unit in the game when you factor in cost and once you start playing skilled opponents they will pick your void ray army to pieces or simply st...

It's just too bad Vick hasn't played the entire season. If anything is going to keep him from being MVP at this rate, it's his lack of playing time and lower stats as a result.

Re: 2010 Fantasy Football Open Leagues

His 57.32 points helped me crush Damage and put me into first. In another league I actually have Peyton Manning warming the bench for Vick. Seems kind of wrong I like him better after knowing he used to kill dogs.
