  1. I had fun playing the demo but I doubt I'll get it. Like the guy above me said it gets a little annoying when you keep getting killed with a single slash. Also the LotR nerd in me is a little displeased as: Good side archers are hobbits... they should be elves and there is too much magic for a LotR universe.
  2. I thought my first goal was nice enough, very nice pass trough the center into the penaltybox. Second one was a bit crappy, I don't like rushing and prefer a passing game. Anyway it was a nice match, I like your playing style General, it's nice and balanced without you being afraid to tackle. We should have a friendly again someday. EDIT: Hell I'll just edit in a little match report for the books (The General)Fulham 0 - 2 Atletico Madrid(Animal) Atletico got off to a good start in this tourny by beating Fulham. It wasn't a match for the neutral spectator as both teams battled it out on midfield with little excitement. Half way into the first half the deadlock was broken as Pablo Assuncao passed the ball to Aguero in the penaltybox. The young Argentinian striker didn't hesitate and put away the ball in the lower left corner. After that the battle for the midfield started all over with neither teams getting any good chances. The start of the second half saw Atletico putting on a bit more pressure but the only noteworthy chance came when Maxi Rodriguez struck the outside of the post. A trough ball to Aguero resulted in the 0-2 as he powered it into the net. Fulham seemed to become more frustrated and Jimmy Bullard released his anger on a Atletico defender with a brutal tackle that got him send off. Fulham did come close to a 1-2 when striker Johnson went one on one with goalkeeper Franco but his attempt went wide. So there you have it. I'm looking forward to the next game!
  3. So can I still sign up? Anyway my gamertag is DutchAnimal and I'd like to play as Atletico Madrid. If not then oh well, I'll just go on playing Man U glory fans.
  4. So what bands or artists, in any genre, do you think are going to hit the big time this year. For the Dutch side of things I recommend keeping an eye open for the Death Letters who seem emo but I've seen them live and they play pretty powerful rock. Other then that I don't really know but I'd like to hear from you guys what you think. Edit: Dammit, can someone fix the title for me?
  5. Just found this: Achievement Unlocked It has been fun, especially the sheer randomness that it seems to be in the beginning.

    Yeah that is a problem but yesterday I started a game with Brentford and after around ten matches I got enough money to crank the fitness staff up to 8 and now it's fine. You just have to sacrifice all your money in the beginning.
  7. It really annoys me when people use glitches in online games to win. I really don't understand people who do that. So you got a perfect score because you win everything using a flaw in the design of the game, whoopdi fucking doo. You're only kidding yourself because anyone who plays you will get pissed off and never play you again because they think you are a dick (whether you are one or not) Edit: happened to stumble upon this site a few days back and I think it sums it up nicely In theory, games are made so that, through a series of increasingly difficult mental and/or reflexive challenges, a human being interacting with the game’s interface can learn how to effectively manipulate it, then use that knowledge to accomplish objectives laid out by the designers and trigger the release of endorphins in the brain. This effect is known as “fun,” and it can also be achieved through sexual stimulation or narcotics use, although those methods don’t feature nearly as many laser rifles. At some point, a faction of gamers who actually un-ironically call themselves “hardcore” forgot all of that definition except the word “objectives,” and decided to treat video games like second jobs. They work at the game with grim, humorless dedication until they discover “the best way to win,” which is invariably to exploit a balance issue or design flaw, then they do that. Over and over and over again. Their belief is that, by learning a rote mechanical action and having the endurance to repeat it without soiling themselves, they have become “skilled” at the game. And they are skilled; just like a robotic arm designed to punch a square out of a sheet of aluminum is skilled at that task. So yay for them! link

    So the update is finally out so yay I can start a tournament while controlling 8 teams, altough the screen still says you can select 4 you can actually select 8, I tried. I also downloaded the Brazilian commentary which is great fun just because of the "GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL GOOOLLLLLL GOOOOLLLLL GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL" I also played CGI13 who got lucky since I was on the attack all match and he managed to get two in on the counter. You just can't trust those sneaky Americans to just loose when they're supposed to

    So I tried uploading a video to ea sports world a couple of time but it never shows up on my page. When I'm on XBL it all goes fine and well and it says the video was succesfully uploaded. I even got the director in the making achievement but it just won't show up! Anyone had this problem and might know how to fix it?

    It's just bloody annoying, the people who play that way aren't doing anything wrong, but it just takes all the fun out of it. I haven't had much people quit on me when they're down so lucky me and I had some good matches but it's generally with people who pick 3 star teams or less and there aren't many out there who are willing to do that. Also someone at EA has a huge boner for English sides, Wolves as good as Sparta Prague is a joke. Sparta would rape them if they ever played against eachtother in real life.

    Ugh I'm done with online matches, here's the outline for 90% of the matches you have online Kickoff - you attack - you attack - you attack - opposing goalkeeper makes godlike save - counter - one touch pass - one touch pass - trough ball - c. ronaldo/toni/henry/drogba runs away from your defense like a jamaican sprinter from a rock - goal and you're 0-1 down - you can do fuck all but you won't score and your defense will have the reaction time of a narcoleptic snail if you are not a 5* team. I'll only play you guys online from now on and continue my Brentford Be-A-Pro career Ugh

    Fable 2

    Just finished the main quest Spoiler: Click here to viewTimmayy basically wrote what I wanted to write. I also choose the love option but only did it to get the dog back. My wife and kid can die for all I care. The stupid kid wandered off into a hobbe cave, I blame his mother for not raising him well. Anyway I thought the ending was hilarious, standing in front of Lucien hearing him talk and then Reaver just shoots him. Who came up with that is either a genius or wanted to go home early, can't decide yet. Now I'm gonna try and finish all the quests and find all the demon doors, statues etc. My hero looks absolutely badass by the way. Black dreadlocks, scummy beard and black and leather tan clothes. Don't think I'll be putting this down for a while and when I do I'll start over with a female evil character who drinks alot, shags everything that moves and kills anyone who looks funny at her. ^_^

    Heh I see you're hunkering for a an ass whooping again huh I think I'll be online later tonight, around 10 (GMT) but I might just be playing Fable but if you're online I'll fire up FIFA again
  15. I don't think either console got the edge on exclusives, PS3 got some real solid exclusives (Metal Gear, Resistance, WipeOut) but since I don't have a PS3 I'll give my XBOX list. which is just as solid. 1. Halo 3 2. Fable II 3. Gears of War 4. Forza Motorsport 2 5. Mass Effect 6. Dead Rising 7. Blue Dragon 8. Viva Pinata 9. Ninja Gaiden II 10. Castle Crashers Edit: Replaced Kane & Lynch, what I thought to be exclusive, with Castle Crashers

    Hah I just defeated 3 Man Utd players in a row. First with Real Madrid, the guy/girl dominated the match but I got a lucky goal for a lead. Then he scored from the kickoff somehow and it went into overtime where Van Nistelrooy headed me to a win. Second match was with AC Milan which was the best game out of the three. I won 3-2 after a beautiful free kick from Pirlo in the added time secured the win for me. Last match, me as Liverpool squashed them 4-0 in a one sided match. I gave up on picking lower league teams when they choose Man U or something. It frustrates me too much. If I set my team to Brentford and the other guy got Man U and doesn't change it, then I will.

    And once again a great victory for the mighty Brentford against the butchers of Leyton Orient. I think MDK keeps his finger on the sliding tackle button but luckily ther ref saw the clear penalty that decided the game. Oh and Gary Smith > you

    That own goal was absolutely amazing, it was just a perfect shot in the top corner! We should have another game soon!

    Anyone want to play some matches on Live? I'm getting kinda sick of playing Man Utd, Chelsea, Arsenal or Liverpool all the time, I wanna play some fun match ups like Sparta Prague vs. Slavia Prague and Sporting vs. Benfica. Just add me as a friend!

    It depends on which player you use to do it. Some players aren't able to do it because of low ratings I guess. Also make sure you time it right, you botch it when you flick the stick too fast or too slow.
  21. I think it was Goku and ChiChi which would be one of the few things they stay true to the series for.... good god that was horrible!
  22. I think I'll pick this up rather then fifa this year. It sounds good and the videos look like this years installment could be great again. One thing I miss in footie games these days is the occasional elbow or two feet tackle. Remember with fifa 98 where you just pressed one of the bumpers or something and you K.O.ed a player, took away so much frustration.
  23. gravity I like this one eventhough I'm extremely bad at it, my record stands at 111
  24. 1. Super Mario Bros. 3 2. Crash Bandicoot (the original) 3. Abe's Exodus 4. Metal Gear Solid 5. GTA Vice City 6. Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 7. Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 8. Marvel vs. Capcom 2 9. Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 10. Kingdom Hearts
  25. Saw this today and I really loved it, it's like Nolan created a whole new batman universe, I personally think that if there is a sequel they could make any of the villains work in this universe. Like Poison Ivy could be a environmentalist gone crazy, Clayface could pretty much stay true to his origin in the comics being an actor that goes mad on the set of a horror movie and so on. The way Nolan managed to incorporate the villains in the first two movies leaves a lot of possibilities open I think!
