If more and more games go FTP, I just hope that developers and publishers look to Valve as how to properly implement that kind of business model. Release a fun game for free, provide a constant stream of free updates and additions, and charge people for little things that they want but have no detrimental affect to…

Team Fortress 2 rakes in ridiculous amounts of cash.

Or the "Creep Creep" Awards for not going and chasing play action. Or waterfalls.

I just keep telling myself all this Tara-ness will make it all the more sweeter when somebody stakes her. Also, as always, superb work Meredith.

I loved how the UV was melting Eric's jacket. SUPER VAMPIER UVEE!

I could look at pictures of Crater Lake all day. My grandma lives just south of it, and so I've gotten to visit it a few times. Beautiful.

The soundtrack is indeed genius. I still listen to it every once in a while.

Blade Runner is one of my favorite movies. There are several different versions of the film, with small but significant changes in them. I suggest the 1991 Director's Cut over 2007's Final Cut. Either way though, great film.

Or you could go back 4 years and look at the rivalry since Aaron Rodgers became the starter: Packers 7, Bears 2. 77%. I was just trying to show that the 80% probability wasn't outrageous.

The teacher's not far off though. In fact, the Packers are 4-1 against the Bears over the past 2 seasons. That's winning 80% of the matchups. [en.wikipedia.org]%E2%80%93Packers_rivalry

For whatever reason, the stuff I enjoy the most about Madden is the draft and seeing new players improve. I really hope they improve the draft and scouting (my God scouting is useless, at least in '11).

Oh God, somehow I had forgotten about the Summer Sale. My wallet just groaned.

Agreed. Fantastic game that lets the player construct his own unique narrative. Also, promoting your homosexual dwarf half-brother to your council because his stats are amazing.

At the risk of being "that guy", where were the boobs?

Just a reminder for those going hard this weekend. Real friends hose you down.

A Ponzi scheme is definitely different from a pyramid scheme.

Yeah, I actually plan on pretending the game ends after Hell difficulty. I have no desire to mindlessly grind to sell items on the AH to buy items that are actually suitable to Inferno. I refuse to set foot in the AH, takes all the fun out of drops.

Ahhh, I was picturing the fillings somehow on the outside, hence my perplexed state,

Needs more tongue.

Winner: PC gamers?
