Oh, the relentless march of time....

I wonder if Superior Man is still leading the Falcons to the Super Bowl in GameDay.

I feel like I'm taking a serious trip into the NFL time tunnel after six weeks: The NFC East might be the best, deepest division in football. The AFC West provides the only legitimate counter argument. I am really surprised. Preseason it seemed like 9-7 would win that division. I think Washington w...

The one thing that's been clear this playoffs is this is not your father's Cubs team. Two games in a row where it looked like they let the win slip away, and yet they kept it together and pulled out wins. Maddon has done a great job keeping the team both confident and relaxed. However, they're going...

I really love it. I'm playing Commander level Ironman, and it's really challenging now that the enemies are so much smarter about flanking and positioning. The time-based bomb-disposal missions were my least favorite in Enemy Unknown, but the use of time-based missions here is great and makes a lot ...

My XCOM crack addiction has returned. Like Dan said last year about the PC version, this game is SOOOO good. The AI is much sharper and more tactical, and the game feels hard usually because the enemy is making sound choices instead of just being buffed on harder levels. If you liked the first one a...

Cutler apologists out in full force this morning. He isn't the only problem on the Bears but he is a common denominator. I said it in June, 4 win team at best. Fox is an overrated coach, Pace has made questionable moves. WTF thought Langford could fill Forte's shoes? Hello Howard looks better than ...

Started my Bears franchise over to have the real rosters, and in the 4th quarter of my game, I got disconnected from the EA servers. I played through, not realizing that my franchise wasn't going to save. Sure enough, after the game I got booted back to the main menu, and when I hit continue franchi...

So I bought the S7 Edge, first phone I have ever bought instead of getting a direct upgrade, to replace my S5. Take it home, start charging it, and while I'm checking it out, black screen of death. Try all the reboot suggestions online and nothing works. On top of that, my cell service was already ...

So the Browns accidentally predicted that Wentz would be in the Hall of Fame since they are the Costanzas of football management.

The presentation has helped a lot. It's still not at the level NBA 2k is, but it's pretty good and adds to the entertainment value instead of being a distraction. The physics have had such a cool impact on the game, too, much more than I expected they would. The way passes get broken up looks so muc...

Game is easily the best in more than a decade. I agree. I have enjoyed the game off and on over the years, but this is the first iteration I have been really excited about since the Xbox days. Offense in particular is a blast, and the special teams changes have completely reinvigorated that aspect ...

Picked up M17 and can see why it's getting love. The offensive side of the game for the human player is really great now. The running game feels both challenging to me but also rewarding when you make the right choice. I had one play that went to the strong side, but the defense overpursued a little...

I think this was the best season finale for GoT so far. Usually the pattern has been for the ninth episode to be big and the tenth to be more subdued. This managed to do both, with two surprising deaths (to me anyway) in Margaery and Tommen. I was disappointed in Margaery's death -- I liked her char...

Well that made things interesting again. I wonder if we'll have a game in this series where the win isn't a brutal beating.

Love's not a good defensive player and neither is Kyrie, but the Cavs were a strong defensive team all year -- top 5 in PPGA. It's a testament to LeBron and the other players. But they have looked completely helpless these first two games. The Warriors are such good shots they can give anyone fits, ...

http://www.polygon.com/2016/6/8/11881106/madden-17-announcers-brandon-gaudin-charles-davis Found this article very encouraging on commentary. Very interesting, and I like the approach they are taking. It's a tough thing to get right especially if you play franchise and have longer games to get more...

She was like 10-year-old Alec Baldwin in fantasy Glengarry, Glen Ross. "Winner gets 62 men who are worth 620 of you losers. Second...

And the return of Bronn for the first time this season! If Brienne draws steel against either Bronn or Jamie, I'm going to have the sads. Even with Jamie back in full sister-lover mode, it's hard not to think the best of him when you see Brienne. I'm afraid the irony of the Kingslayer being slain w...

That is awesome, Pete, thanks for sharing!

XCOM: Enemy Unknown is now backward-compatible and free in the second half of June. Amazing testament to this game that I probably dumped 60-70 hours into it and am very excited to get it back.

Now if only they would port the sequel to consoles....

Finished Uncharted 4 over the weekend. It was a great ending for one of my favorite franchises. In terms of gameplay, I still think Uncharted 2 is the best of the series, but this had my favorite story and avoided the changes in tone that always threw a bit of a curveball with the previous games. I ...

I am not surprised the Cavs are down 2-0, but to get pantsed like that after dominating the Eastern playoffs is surprising. All their cohesion has been stripped away in two games.

And the return of Bronn for the first time this season! Even though a lot didn't happen in terms of plot, loved last night's episode. Seeing The Hound back, positioning for the Riverrun siege, Marjorie clearly playing a game with the zealots...feel like these last three episodes are going to be awes...

I am very sorry to hear that, Steve.
