The Blog for the Sports Gamer Three guys who love Sports Gaming rant and rave about various stuff.

Tuesday notes

- Man, this week can't go fast enough.  I'm just so anxious to begin my vacation.  I only have a few more things that I need to do before I go (buy some new shoes, pick up a few books, etc.)  Friday can't get here soon enough.

- The bummer of the week is missing most of the first round of the Stanley Cup playoffs.

For my money, the Stanley Cup playoffs is about as good as it gets for post season competition.  Thankfully I should just miss parts of round one and not much more than that.

- Anyone go to the new Gamefly site recently?  It's faster, but I still find the site very annoying.

- Finished Heavenly Sword on Sunday night.  It's not the longest game, and some of the "twing-twang" sequences are annoying, but the game is a great deal of fun.  I'd highly recommend it as a rental to anyone who likes the God of War style of games.

- For TV watching, I recently stumbled across a British show called 'The IT Crowd.'  There is some pretty bad stereotypical geek humor there, but there are also some moments where I was laughing so loud last night I thought I would wake up the kids.

There was one moment where their high speed internet wasn't working well and they were forced to deal with dial-up speeds.

"Oh, do you remember the Internet at this speed? Up all night and you'd see eight women."

Awesome.
