A whole bunch of crap. Doing a write up so I can poo all over EA and their smearing of the Simcity name by putting it on facebook. Also waiting on EA to release a review code to me so that I can review The Secret World, an EA/Funcom MMORPG.

Got my review code for The Secret World this morning. It's currently downloading.

I have a few friends who play TSW. It's... different. There's a lot of unique puzzle solving involved. Translating things for Morse code (where the game gives you no hints to know that it's Morse code, just beeps going on in the background) was the craziest one that I've heard. It's not for me but it's an interesting concept for sure.

I'm still playing SWTOR. I know it's not a great MMO but I still enjoy getting to play in the Star Wars sandbox and I have a good group of people to play with. Evo going on has made me want to pick Street Fighter 4 back up.

I started into it last night and played for a few hours. I was completely overwhelmed by the scope of the game. There's one thing that no one will ever claim about TSW and that's that it's a clone of something else. It's entirely it's own entity. So far I'm really impressed and my laptop easily handles it on Ultra settings which makes the game look absolutely amazing.

I played the beta for a bit. It's definitely a new concept. I'm interested to see how long it lasts because the game caters to a certain kind of gamer. There seems to be a giant curve that will only get passed by a few select gamers who enjoy both the Lovecraftian setting and are are hardcore MMO fans.

      Possible, he is physical and a forchecker but not a needle mover, but i wouldnt mind it, although I think we have enough 4th line grinders right now between Carrier Robinson and Janakowski  down there, i actually really love our 4th line.            We need scoring in the top 6, and a RHD at this point its definitely coming via trade.            Rasmus Andersson I hear may be on the market, it feels like every couple of seasons someone links us to Erik Karlsson.       As far as centers go,  Marco Rossi (even though we have a ton of smurf already)     Jordan Kyrou is an intriguing option if he is available.           At this point i think Rod should just move Jarvis to his natural center position to give us a 1B center...   yes hes also a smurf but he plays way bigger than he is stylistically.

      The problem with these summary stats and rankings is that they flatten out progression and assume an even performance throughout the year. His first 3 or 4 games of the season don't really tell you anything about his current level of capacity but more about where he started and what his floor was last year. Given his last several games were against playoff teams, that gives you an idea of his current ability coming into the season. But it will serve more as a floor than a ceiling given the upgrade in talent on offense. And a better defense should give us more stops which results in shorter fields and more opportunities. And going into his third year there is no reason to suspect he will regress. His success wasn't  based on being superhuman but being smart and taking what was the defense was giving him. Distributing to the other guys not trying to do it on his own. He was great at the end when pressured and consistently moved the ball. That makes him a great game manager which is what we need. Something that is easier to do and relies on everyone else rather than having to be a top physical specimen or do it on his own. No one can predict the future but to say we haven't improved much is crazy given just having the Browns anchoring the defensive line will shut down the run and make sure QBs won't be stepping up in the pocket.  Assuming Evero got the message to can the prevent defense and bend until you break philosophy.
