I only got the racing game so far. Meh. Nothing was really innovative, the graphics weren't too impressive, and I just never got into the game. I might download LBP, but it almost sounds like a chore at this point.

I got to work at E3. It was all a blur though because certain segments of the video game industry believe in slave labor.

How well does a talented point guard who has no jump shot perform in NBA 2K11?

I mainly only have Black Ops as far as online play is concerned... I guess RE5 but I like to solo that most of the time...

We've been friends for a while but haven't play anything yet.... I guess I need to buy some games....


Did I mention I just rented MLB The Show?

I loved WCW during that time. Wolfpac Sting FTW. I was throwing away some old WCW posters the other day. I had one with Ray Mysterio (sp?) and on the back was a close up of Saturns face. No eyebrows, dog collar, and lots of make up. I couldn't help but laugh.

LOL those were the days man. I still remember Booker T and that TV title. He made that thing seem like wit was actually worth a damn. Some awesome matches. That playoff like series he had against Benoit was epic. Those guys sold the hell out of that belt! It was my favorite title at the time.

Remember that event they had where it was like the Royal Rumble but they had three rings? I always wanted that in the games back then but they could never do it.

An NFL lockout isn't stopping Madden so I don't think an NBA lockout will stop 2K12 from coming out. Back in the '99 lockout, NBA Live still came out like usual I believe.

That's what I was getting out. I was asking because my last NBA game was NBA Live 2005 (back when Minnesota had a good rating.

If they're quick they do alright, since you can just beat people off the dribble and down the court. Not sure how Rubio will do though.

If you have quick, athletic wings (like Iggy and Johnson), then you'll get easy transition points whenever you want.

So I just had Ricky's best game so far in My Player. 16 points, 11 rebounds, and 18 assists for his first ever career triple-double (Milestone). He also scored his 500th career point (Milestone). Oh yeah, and it was also a Key Game, so I ended up totaling almost 7000 points in the game.

After a pit stop in New York for about 15 games, I recently got traded to the Magic.

Rubio / Richardson / Turkoglu / Love / Howard (6th Man: Arenas)

Is he talking about Hibbert's 13 rebounds in 28 minutes? Because, no, that's not coming soon, or ever for that matter.

I did a thing Wed on 2k11, imported Rubio, imported real draft class. Simulated, got #2 and #32. Draft picks were Williams and Lee. Oh yeah, and traded Flynn for Oden at deadline. I was playing in a preseason game, and ended up with a autosubbed lineup of Ridnour/Beasley/Williams/Love/Randolph at one point. Went on 16-6 run with that lineup.
