  1. I'm glad they're sorting the MM out. That's what usually keeps me playing right up until the next game release. This years was poor. Even simple things like being able to choose a players number were left out. Made you feel more like a caretaker than a manager.

    If it weren't for the trophies patch and UT add-on I've have probably stopped playing a long time ago.

    edit: I think so TCO, I'm sure you've been through on goal tons of times and had to take that little turn to get onto your strong foot to curl it round the keeper. Now it'll be slicker and more realistic.

  2. Some real classic one-liners (Terminator, Scarface, Taxi Driver, GWTW, Casablanca etc) in here already. Here's a few others that haven't been mentioned to make up the numbers:

    "Aaaaaalrighty then." Ace Ventura: Pet Detective

    "E.T. phone home." E.T.

    "You can't handle the truth!" A Few Good Men

    "My mama always said life was like a box a chocolates, never know what you're gonna get." Forrest Gump

    "Houston, we have a problem." Apollo 13

  3. Yeah I imagine with skilled players you can predict what they're going to try and do, whereas noobs are just crazy.

    Michael Carrick :wub:

    ^ My first UT game on Legendary difficulty. Picked a nice easy opponent to start with. <_< I'm loving Carrick and Barry in midfield. Both excellent shooters, strong defensively, run the game in midfield and Carrick inparticular is wicked at getting his head on the end of corners.

  4. I haven't read any other replies as I'm trying to do this without any influence. I'll probably be reminded by a ton of stuff I'd forgotten afterward reading through.

    -Goal

    David Bentley vs Arsenal in October 2008. The 40 yard volley. Can't find a video of it. Which is a shame because it's the only thing worth remembering about David Bentley this season.

    -Match

    Perhaps not the best match from a neutral point of view but personally I thought Utd beating Villa 3-2 was amazing! If they had lost that game the title would've been right in the balance and I really think it could've gone either way. It was just a classic Utd comeback in front of the home fans and one I'll never forget. Not to mention the emergence of Macheda. By the way, I don't think he's some megastar after a couple of goals like the media would have you believe, but he could still prove to be a great player yet.

    -Moment

    Macheda goal. 3-2. Amazing.

    -Comeback

    :mellow:

    -Player

    Steven Gerrard. He has less goals and (I think) less assists than Ronaldo but he played a few less games and there's no doubt in my mind that Liverpool are weaker without Gerrard than Utd are without Ronaldo. Not saying Liverpool are a one-man team by any stretch but without such an influential captain who can change games like he can they wouldn't have had such a good title push this season.

    -Manager

    Roy Hodgson. Done so much with so little.

    -Facepalm moment of the season

    Take your pick of any of Gomes' gaffs earlier in the season. But credit to him he's been better this year.

  5. Paul Pierce, LeBron James and Kobe Bryant.

    These 3 players aren't going to win the NBA championship in 2009.

    Because the Magic Happened.

    And now I'm going to leave because I know less about basketball than Football or Hockey. <_<

    GO MAGIC!

    I'm on your side. :shifty:

    In my own funny little British way I can see a comparison between the way Orlando have got themselves to the finals and how Chelsea of the Premiership went about their two title wins a few years back. That is to say they haven't done anything that stands out like the Cavs winning two series 4-0 and getting lots of attention. They've just gone quietly about their business and got the job done much like Chelsea won a ton of games 1-0 playing 'dull' but efficient football and beat teams like Arsenal and Man Utd to the title who were playing pretty flowing football and sometimes winning by large margins but were more inconsistant.

    Maybe I'm talking shite but that's the way I see it. :unsure:

  6. Yeah my brother and I got it. I've only played the tutorial but he's hammered it cause he's a bit of a trophy-whore. It seems alright but I definitely wouldn't have paid for it.

    To answer the earlier question, I have my main UK PSN account and a US one for things like earlier demos and free junk like this. Don't bother with a Japanese account since... I can't read Japanese.

  7. Just needed to bump this to tell you all that David Beckham is now on Ultimate Team along with another couple of new players in the Italian league (not sure who they are though).

    He's causing a bit of a frenzy at the minute and people are paying daft prices for him. I somehow snapped one up for 1.3k on trade and I sold him minutes later at a Buy It Now price of 49,950! Best bit of business I'll EVER pull off. Chuffed with that.

  9. DVD/Bluray remote is handy to have if you watch a lot of movies on it like I do. I also have this charging dock which isn't necessarily must-have but it looks cool and a good way of storing the controllers neatly.

    My next purchase will probably be the official headset. Heard nothing but good things about it. Don't get the madcatz ones, they're crap.
