So then it never happened.

Campaign Trail or Election '08 is fun (I forget the name). The people are like the "Backyard (insert sport)" characters (cartoonish little body, big head). I'm sure you can use the track pad or whatever your laptop has.

The second chest in the cave is the one you get from the Pub Games? Can you go back and get it later on, or is that only available in the beginning?

I had this happen a few weeks ago (a little over a year after buying it). And what's been said is correct: just the unit (no faceplate, no hard drive, no controllers, no wires, etc). Got mine back 10 days later. It was a new console.

How many levels are in the Insurance Fraud activities in SR1? Does it vary by location?

Well, I'm just now getting acquainted with the awesomeness that was the first Saints Row. I tried it shortly before my xbox died, and wasn't a huge fan of it (didn't get very far). But having done only a few missions, and a bunch of hilarious activities, this game is growing on me like a fungus. Does the fun carry over to the second one (referring to single player)?

The whole A beat B, and B beat C never really applies though. The Jets beat the Dolphins, and the Dolphins beat the Patriots. But the Patriots beat the Jets. So just because the Browns beat the Giants, that doesn't automatically mean that Dallas will beat them too (since they beat Cleveland earlier already).

You might be right. I did find it odd that using the adidas live or whatever it's called, I was able to beat a much better team than mine on paper (Barcelona) but struggled against Boca Juniors (then again, I forgot to see if they were better than America.

Finally got to play it today. Won 2-0 with R. Madrid (against Barcelona) and had a 0-0 tie with America (against Boca Juniors). Glad to see you can complete passes without the CPU always stealing the ball.

Well, I've been going back and forth, unable to decide which one to get. In the past, it was a no brainer, 2k was the way to go. But the more and more I look at reviews and stuff, I'm not sure for this year. Live has the International teams, as well as international rules (something that I felt was lacking last year) And 2K is still 2K. So, anyone who has played either/both? What are your opinions.

Will be getting this today. Can't wait. Does the AI still have a magnet on the ball when you make passes?

Have both. DS version has no action sequences, just little comic book style snapshots pre/post levels. The levels are the same (though you go through different sections sometimes) for both hero/villain. Only advantage on freeplay for 360 is that all suits that you've unlocked are available (regardless of whether they are in that level or not). The only levels that are a little confusing are the chase levels (batmobile, boat, and batwing chase scenes -- 3rd level on each) since they use both screens on the DS.

Since I'm still at the beginning of Season 2 (watching on DVD) and people seem a little down on Season 3, are these solutions accurate? "How to Heal Heroes"

I would say yes. And while SD is still in the top half of the league (fantasy wise), they have been totally underwhelming. Thankfully I've started GB's defense except for the first week.

Alright, I sent my xbox back due to the rrod. It says it has been shipped back, and provides a tracking number. I click on the number and it says UPS has no record of that tracking number. Would I be correct in assuming that the label was printed, but not yet picked up?

Spoiler: Click here to view They added him to the never ending line of the amazing Patrelli's What's next, Katio and Angela had an affair and Hiro is actually a Patrelli as well? Spoiler: Click here to viewDidn't they mention in the second season (episode 2) when Parkman is interrogating her and he mentions that sex and revenge are the two most common motives, she says something like "I didn't sleep with him...not in a long time at least." or something like that.

I'd forgotten about it. Will probably go on Tuesday for my free popcorn. So is it funny or depressing?

At what age do you see MMA careers winding down? Kimbo is 34. As for his aura, nearly going the distance with Thompson certainly diminished it. And losing to an unimpressive fighter doesn't bode well either. It was fun while it lasted. If Kimbo had beaten good competition, or have had competitive fights against good competition, a loss wouldn't mean as much. But he's beaten nobodies or people who have seen their better days pass them already. And now this loss? Nobody wrote Lesnar off because his first UFC fight was against legit competition. Now if he'd lost the second one, we could think that maybe he's not as good as advertised. But Kimbo was living off the hype, having proven absolutely 0 in the cage.

No, not universal. Dan Lebaretard basically gives him verbal blow jobs on his radio show in Miami. God, I can't wait until Monday's show. Wonder what excuses they'll come up with. They were mocking James Thompson leading up to the fight (since he'd lost to Butterbean in a minute and a half). I was cackling like a little girl on the inside during that TKO.

I too saw AWAKE last night (second viewing). Still great. I love movies that take place in limited venues. Also saw Made of Honor two nights ago, it was entertaining enough, but I like RCs.

Well, with my XBox dying on me, I decided to jump onto The Sims, but I couldn't stand the generic people. Fast forward 3 hours and the neighborhoods are a little more diverse. And thank god for Apartment Life, no longer running out of money trying to buy all the furniture.

Ugh, RROD today, then it worked for a few minutes, and then RROD again. Sending it in, hopefully it's a quick turnaround.

Does Don Frye vs Yoshihiro Takayama count? I remember seeing a replay of that at a sports bar. I put my food down and didn't touch it until that was over. I remember thinking "That dude is a beast"

Considering "the" OSU dropped out of the top ten after its loss to USC, I figure USC should be no higher than 7.

So I guess the Trojans were ineffective against feisty Beavers? Wow, that was a horrible line. Anyway, going to my first college football game this weekend since UF vs LSU back in '00 I think. Hopefully Miami will beat UNC this weekend.
