Is Steam down for anyone else today?

I was rooting for the Giants and I know most people dislike the Patriots, but when they showed Kraft reacting to the last play and look up, seemingly saying something to his wife, it was tough for me. I imagine the team wanted to win (and it was mentioned many times) for his wife and damn, it sucked seeing that expression on his face.

And now we are closer to finding out if Peyton will be a Colt or not and the debate of whether Eli is better than his brother will begin.

Has anyone had trouble logging into PSN? I was on yesterday just fine, but it is not signing me in at all tonight.

I won a copy (sort of, I was supposed to win a Bluray player, but it got lost in the post), but it's for PS3

Feeling gracious enough to pass it to this stranger?

I do not mind either way, though I am partial to the updated rosters.

For sure, I am.

This was something they emphasized as the game was coming out. Each assault kill streak (except care packages) can help to the next one. For support, it does not because when you die it does not reset anyways.

For the second time, something weird has happened in my game. First time this happened was with the Bears and now the Colts. Basically I start a franchise and simulate the first year, do my draft then play. I start the next season and I have Peyton Manning, a rookie QB and Painter on the depth chart but when I start the game, my rookie is starting at QB. Manning does not show as hurt and even appears at the coin toss, but I cannot sub him in and does not matter how I move the depth chart. Has anyone else encountered this issue?

Just to make sure, it is a regular season game and not a pre-season game, right? I know previous versions of Madden would sometimes start the youngest QB in pre-season games.

Yeah, regular season game. i never play any pre-season games. It was the first game of the regular season in which this happened to me both times.

What are you guys talking about with his arms?

I really hope we keep at least Wayne and Saturday. I understand letting Mathis go, but we let Harrison go because we had Wayne...we have no one that could take over for him as a number one right now. When Peyton comes back, you really want to take away his center and his number one receiver? But yeah, I am curious on who the Colts would go for as a head coach.

According to this new Colts mobile app, Jim Caldwell has been released as the head coach.

I know some people do not like Patriots running up the score, but I think it is something more teams should do. This season had so many comebacks from every score and you are against a guy that has had some crazy comebacks, why not keep playing aggressive? I think the Saints and Patriots are the only teams that do this and it is strange to me. Some teams will just play conservative, run the ball, and the other team comes back. The Patriots did not want that and they made sure it did not happen.

Saying that, my pick for the SB is still Packers/Ravens.

Do you guys know a website that details when a show will start again after the break? I do not watch A&E outside of Breakout Kings or TNT outside of Falling Skies, so I never get to see the commercials for them and was wondering if there was a site that had all the shows and when they returned.

I would be up for a game if you guys set up another big game.

Is Dead Island worth the 20 bucks? Anyone have it or possibly getting it?

I still play pretty consistently, this is probably my favorite Madden to date just because f the scouting and rookies not being shadows.

I am on my third year as the Colts and I had a crazy game against the Jets. Peyton Manning came out of pre-season with an injury that put him out for the year and thankfully I drafted a QB with the first pick in my first season. I get to an early start with a TD pass and then the game goes to hell as I throw two picks and fumble off a sack for a TD. The score is 27-7 going into the third quarter and suddenly my QB looks like Peyton Manning and throws two more TD passes and then I get a field goal and the ball back with about a minute in the fourth. I am pretty set that I will win and I get to the goal line, get stopped and kick a field goal which leaves like eight seconds. It is tied up and I do a squib kick so time runs out, but the Jets have like three seconds left. Sanchez throws a damn hail mary pass, my guys knock it away INTO the hands of a receiver and they get a TD to win the game. =(

Extremely easy. Also, anyone want a 50% off Valve coupon for two coal? I only need two to get 7.

Can anyone elaborate on why Terraria should or should not be bought? It is on sale for only 2 bucks, is it worth that amount?

Also, if there's anyone here who actually likes Spiral Knights/still needs the achievement, apparently you can gift the money from that game. I have 371 crowns and I've already uninstalled it, if anyone is interested.

I need the achievement, do I have to have the game downloaded to get the achievement?

I think i got a free portal 1 game, i already got that one free wen they put steam onto mac, but the text sais hollyday gift 2011.

If anyone wants it gifted just ask, i can do it and like i said, i already got Portal 1.

I never played it, I would not mind it if no one else wants it.

I finally get in, click for my get started gift and there is nothing in my inventory though Steam says there is. =(

I cannot even get on the Steam store, an error keeps coming up.

I will be getting on this afternoon (on PS3) if anyone wants to join.
