I don’t like Tuesdays
Well, that Orioles collapse was epic last night. As soon as I saw Gonzalez in the 6th, I know it was over. I went to bed with the game being 6-2, knowing full well that they would lose. I wasn't surprised.
Moving along to gaming, now that PSN is back up, I've been playing baseball. I so much want to like MLB2K but I just am not feeling it. The gameplay is more frustrating than anything else. I prefer the Show, but today Amazing is offering $37 to trade it in...hrmph.
I am really liking Battle Slots for the PC and Motorstorm Apocalypse for the PS3...the online play, where you can place bets on who will win, is very cool.
Regarding the PSN outage, as you know,I buy a lot of games but don't often play them...the welcome back PSN 2 game package sucks for those of us that already own all of those games, Seriosuly...infamous and little big planet 1? Was Q*Bert unavailable? Why can't they just give me a $20 credit and I would be happy.
Friday Thoughts
So, I heard there was a wedding today...
Apparently there was a draft last night. Craig kept messaging me about it. Until we know there will be football, I really don't care..although I did think the Baltimore - Chicago "oh sorry, I forgot I had to call in that trade" was kinda funny.
In gaming news, I am now carrying my 3DS with me for maximum pedometer coinage. I have yet to get anything street pass related however.
I continue to play and enjoy Tiger Woods online and I have created a Sports Gamer Blog group if anyone is interested. Initial play is free, but members get perks like all courses, etc.
