A post

During the podcast it was discussed on how little I had posted recently, so I figured I'd try and find some stuff to post about. I really have not been doing a lot of gaming and since this is a gaming site the relevant content has just not been there.

Duke Nukem PC - the single player game sucks. There is not need to sugar coat it. Multiplayer is a TON better but seems like the same game we've all player before under different names.

Madden 2011 - I started a fantasy draft franchise a couple weeks ago. I did get the first pick and took Tom Brady. It quickly went down hill from there, but I do like the outcome of my team. Calvin Johnson Jr for my WR and Willie Parker as RB. My O and D lines are my weak points.

MLB 2K11 - Played thru season 2 with My Player. I'm now the #1 player on the team and have moved from SS to 3rd so that Jed Lowrie could play short instead of sitting on the bench and having a guy rated a 62 play 3rd. Whey they didn't move Jed to 3rd I don't know. In season 2 we won 102 games and won the AL East by 18 games only to get swept in the first round of the playoffs by the Twins. So we're back in spring training and I don't know if I have the desire to play thru another season.

I've really started looking into Pinball Emulators. I've gotten Future Pinball installed and working, but can't seem to get Virtual Pinball and PinMame working right. I don't know what I'm missing. The real confusing part is that it seems they all install as almost a portable app. I'm really surprised someone hasn't zipped up their setup and posted it online with "unzip to C: and create shortcuts to these EXEs" It just seems that simple yet I can't get it working. I keep getting VBS errors. If anyone already has this type of setup complete and would be willing to zip and share, please let me know. If I could get that running the next thing I'd look at is HyperSpin as a front end and then MAYBE putting together a full cabinet to run it.
