Re: OT: WebOS Tablet Thread

Is there a file explorer, or can the folders only be managed when connected to a PC via usb?

Re: OT: WebOS Tablet Thread

Managed to snag a 32GB at Best Buy this morning. I just couldn't resist the $150 price tag for a tablet. :D

There were people in line at 11:30pm the night before. I was #55 by 5:30am.

Re: OT: Direct TV / DVR / DVD/ Home Theater Thread

I'm looking to (finally) get a home theater system to go with our 46" Samsung and PS3. Not looking to spend a ton of money, so I've focused on the All-in-one packages. I noticed that a lot of them include what looks like a Blu-Ray player. Do these also function as the receiver? I'm used to seeing a ...

Re: Zen Pinball (PS3)

I did the same thing. I got tired of the Marvel tables and began playing Zen again. The only extra table I purchased was Sorcerer's Lair, which is great. I'd like to get a couple more for variety, but I'm not sure which ones. I don't want the Street Fighter one, that much I know.

Got my first 5 Gold star rating on expert!! :D Vocals on Slipknot's Pyschosocial. Is it just me or do vocals in general seem much easier than any of the other instruments? I can pass anything with at least 4 stars in expert vocals, but I'm nowhere close to passing most songs set to expert on drums, ...

FPS ideas

My 10 year old son has been getting into 1st and 3rd person shooter-type games. He had been playing the Star Wars Battlefront games for the past couple of years, and is currently into the online multiplayer aspect of Transformers:War for Cybertron. This has inevitably led to the request that he be a...

Re: NCAA Football 12

Someone......anyone....Is the NCAA tackling and de-suctioning supposed to be in Madden? My understanding it's the same engine this year so I would expect it to play the same. Thanks for the replies guys. I am still a bit wary of Madden having the same tackling & blocking. One of the NCAA preview vi...

Re: NCAA Football 12

I noticed the improved tackling and lack of suction in the demo. Nothing felt canned or automatic. Are these going to be in Madden this year? If not, I may cave to NCAA and pass on Madden just for that. Oh, and does Madden have the defensive player lock? I love using that just for the different view...

Re: WWE All Stars

I hate spending $60 on a game, and I love wrestling games. To me, this has been worth the money. It's not as deep as SvR, but it's 100x more fun. There is depth to the game though. The different types of wrestlers come into play more as you discover the more advanced moves. Things like chaining move...

Re: WWE All Stars

Well, we just got back from grocery shopping.....and I added All Stars to the cart. :)

Teal is right about it being deeper than a normal arcade fighter, but it's not quite as deep in terms of match types and customization as "normal" wrestling games.
