New Year, Same League, Different Logo

Watching Week 1 of the NFL on Sunday was indeed awesome. Except for the fact that just about every team I saw (aside from the Rams) made me realize more fully how much my Redskins are going to probably suck this year under Zorn. Philly got spectacular plays from their wideouts in beating the Rams. This, despite missing their supposedly "top 2" guys. Meanwhile, the Redskins continue to get mediocrity from Moss, Randle El, and Thrash. As a co-worked so accurately put it: "Our #1 is really a #2. O read

Premiere Spotlight: True Blood & Entourage

Look, it’s HBO Sunday! Well not quite, Fox is also previewing their remake of the Japanese gameshow Hole in the Wall tonight at 8PM. I’m just not so sure I can get into a show about, well, people trying to fit through a hole in the wall for money. It does look amusing but it’s just not my cup o’ tea. Still, if you’ve been waiting for it, your wait is over. And here are the other shows premiering tonight… True Blood @ 9PM (HBO) The new HBO series based on the Sookie Stackhouse novels read

1001 (more or less) Movies to See Before You Die

I saw this list elsewhere and thought I’d give it a whirl. I’m going to put it in its own post because it’s looooong. The ones in bold are the ones I’ve seen. Some of the others I’ve only seen partially, so they have an asterisk beside them. A Trip to the Moon (1902) The Great Train Robbery (1903) The Birth of a Nation (1915) Les Vampires (1915) Intolerance (1916) The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1919) Broken Blossoms (1919) Way Down East (1920) Within Our Gates (1920) The Phantom Car read

Not to Worry

Friday, September 5, thing were supposed to settle down. The political conventions were finally over, capped by John McCain’s workmanlike speech – long on character (he has it, he says), and short on the issues. In fact the issues didn’t come up much at all – McCain politely nodded to them as they passed by. His audience didn’t care, and those not at the convention, watching on television, were not impressed.   Here, from Steve Benen, is a roundup:   Jeffrey Toobin on CNN: “I thought it was the read

Five things I need to see happen today

Here's five things I need to see happen if the Cowboys want to beat the Browns at 4:15pm est today. 1. Marion Barber has to start fast. If the Cowboys can come out early and control the line of scrimmage while allowing MBIII to pick up chunks of yardage it will set a tone that should continue all afternoon. 2. Get after Anderson. If the defense allows him to sit in the pocket comfortably he will pick them apart. Demarcus Ware and Greg Ellis must show up big time and I also expect a few 'bring read

NFL Picks: Week 1

NFL Picks: Week 1 by Rexx on Sep 6, 2008 10:16 AM EDT Here we go with my picks and pans for the opening week of the 2008 NFL season: NY Giants over Washington: I predict a 16-7 Giants victory (wait,...what...oh, nevermind) Sunday's Games Detroit over Atlanta: Matt Ryan won't be a star just yet. Hopefully, no one else will steal Rudi Johnson's bags, either! Seattle over Buffalo: Seahawks too tough even over an underrated Bills team. Could end up being a Bills upset, so don't be surpr read

Cowboys Browns Spread

-Brad Marchetti The bad boys of the NFC East the Dallas Cowboys will be tested under the glaring lights Sunday at 4:15 when they travel to Cleveland for the Dallas Cowboys vs Cleveland Browns game. The stars of D-town are the NFL odds on favorites to take the NFC title but first they must get by a tough AFC foe in Cleveland. Last season the Browns opened eyes with a surprising 10-6 mark but the jury is still out on the dawg pound boys. The opening line on this game was Dallas -3 but the wisegu read

Hulk Factor

I’m not talking mad, or frustrated, I’m talking right FURIOUS, spittle flying from my lips as angered jibberish and blasphemy pours from my face. I’m talking rage hot enough to boil lobsters from yards away. This is… Hulk Factor. People who go to various WoW forums and post crap like “ONLY 60 DAYS TO WAR” Ok. We get it already. Warhammer is an MMO. And it’s coming out. And it’s going to be good. Y’all said the exact same thing about Hellgate London. It sucked. You said the same thing about Tabul read

In The Blinking of an Eye.

MMO's have a chequered history. It's been 15 years or so since their unpopular inception as geek vehicles to social adulthood, and the varied denizens of the myriad worlds have had more changes of clothes, race and gender than any single self respecting avatar could care to admit. They've travelled to the distant past to slap dragons and save buxom wenches; journeyed to a galaxy far far away to live a story as old as time (saving buxom wenches), and killed, slayed, PK'd, mulched, hooked, flamed, read

Is Blizzard Committed to Disabled Gamers?

“Game accessibility” is one of those buzz word phrases that has been thrown around a lot in gaming communities, but the term “accessibility” as it applies to gaming has multiple meanings.  We often hear about how large scale MMOs (like World of Warcraft) are increasing the accessibility of their games by catering to a larger and larger casual player base.  That is not the kind of game accessibility that I want to talk about here today.  I want to talk about “accessibility” in the more common, read

Warhammer Online Open Beta, Launch, and the hype.

The Warhammer Online open beta is just around the corner, and shortly after Warhammer will finally go live. While the game is by no means ‘finished’ or ‘perfect’, it’s actually in far better shape than what most people saw during the preview weekend. The NPC/Pet pathing issue, which was the most major and noticeable bug during PW, has been fixed, along with a graphics fix that will finally let us see what the engine behind Warhammer can actually do, instead of viewing muddy textures 10 feet away read
