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

Thursday notes

Hopefully the DNS issues are all resolved.  All part of the fun of moving domains due to Godaddy's SOPA support.

- Yesterday I didn't get much time in on NFL Blitz, instead I code to focus my time on Skyrim.

It's absolutely amazing how much time you can spend on a game and never really mess with the primary storyline.

Yesterday, for example, I spent at least an hour making potions and traveling from city to city to sell all of them off for healing potions, which I need more and more of as time goes on.  Still, I keep going back to my level 24 Redguard and slaughtering the contents of any cave or mine that I see.

The only thing that I could see ending that is the release of Diablo III.  That game will certainly be the end of Craig's and my life. 

- That gets me to thinking.  What was the last sports game that you felt that way about?   According to my Steam stats, I have over 25 hours put into Skyrim in the last month or so.  Are there any sports games that still grab you that way?

- Lastly, I am glad that I am starting to temper my sports fandom of late because if I was really being fanatical about the Rose Bowl or the last Badger basketball game, I would probably have lost my mind about the way that both teams lost.

I guess the true test will be to see how I react if the Packers fail to win in the playoffs.
