Good lord their midfield presence just completely evaporated and there was no linkup play with the defenders, resulting in the ball being repeatedly given away after more than 3 touches. Pickford was clearly the England player of the tournament and the defense was good. I think a lot of what you sa...

I’ve been playing FUT since the very beginning of the mode that makes millions for FIFA. You hear stories about teens spending their Papas hard earned cash of up to 7-8K’s to get their Icon Ronaldo or Legend of their choice. So this leaked document is news now? EA has been making millions alone wit...

they'd not only be risking litigation and sanctions but loss of CL revenues. ... they might just be banned from at least the last year of getting that CL money. But here’s the thing: as I understand it, EVERY club in the new Superleague will receive, I think, €400M EACH YEAR. Every club. That is ap...

Digging up this dusty old thread because I finally purchased Diablo III in the current Xbox Spring Sale. There’s one buddy of mine from NYC who’s free to game with me some afternoons (my nights), and since his Xbox has been mothballed for some time, we’ve been trying Xbox-PC cross platform games, wh...

I love The Expanse. I haven’t read the books, only watched the show. The first season really got going after a bit, and while I was sort of disappointed with how it heavily shifted from very hard sci-fi into semi-supernatural stuff, I still really dug it. Having finished off season 5 now, it’s reall...

For me, the story of the game was the defenses. KC’s D had too many mistakes and got caught being too aggressive on the back (probably thought the officials wouldn’t call it as tight as they did), and then melted down with frustration as the 1st half wore on. That time out at the end of the half was...

Am I the only one extra jacked up for this super bowl? Maybe it’s because I’ve been in Germany almost two years now, maybe it’s because I’ve actually watched more football this year thanks to NFL GamePass and my weird schedule, I don’t know. I really wish I could watch it live but there’s just no wa...

I haven’t played the game, and I doubt I will, but this launch has to be the most disastrous ever. CDPR made such a big deal about not doing “crunch time” only to go back on their word to reach an unrealistic deadline, and still release a buggy mess. Form what I’ve been reading, it’s the board / inv...

Worst defeat for Germany since 6-0 to Austria in 1931 . Will this finally be what pushes Löw out the door?

As an envious outside observer, I have to say the new controller for the PS5 is the most exciting, next-gen thing with these two machines. I’m certainly wanting to get a Series X, and I can appreciate the sort of iterative approach MS is taking. I’m already all in on Gamepass, and I do think the “qu...

I sure wish I could join in on the early-adopter fun, but not this time. I mean, I finally got a Xbox one X a few months ago, so there’s no way I can justify the €500 for a new device. But being a non-PC gamer and a dedicated console guy since the SNES to N64 (and Dreamcast, and PS1) days, I think t...

My EA Play just renewed, like, Friday. Ugh. But, reading the linked article, my understanding is that 1/3 of my remaining EA Play time will be added on to my GamePass sub. It still seems a little generous, as a year of EA Play is $30 and a year of GamePass is $120. It makes sense to me that they’d s...

Can anyone give a quick tutorial or maybe suggest one somewhere else about the new pass rushing moves or system? I haven’t played much of madden the past couple of years, and in my tiny bit of dabbling with the new one, I’m intrigued but a bit lost with the new pass rush mechanics. Terry’s post was...

Positive or inconclusive? Definitely positive now? Update: Yep, positive. Who is Racing Point's reserve driver? This positive test, the Marlins' positive tests in baseball and others prove the only way sports can be done safely during this pandemic is in a bubble like the NBA, MLS and NHL. The NFL,...

Very, very glad to hear your father pulled through. That is an extremely harrowing tale, and I hope your mom is holding up well too. All the best, Dan.

I'm all kinds of in. Who else have we got for the greatest show in all of online racing, fellas? *sigh* Oh, I would love to join in, but there’s just no way - between new baby (son #2, just 4 weeks old now) and the time difference, I mean, there is simply no way. I’m barely gaming at all at this st...

Thanks Jared! I’d reiterate what others have said - hard to believe it’s been that long, and even though I don’t post much at all anymore, I still really value this place and keeping tabs on what folks are talking about. Thanks for keeping it alive.

Hey Rob! It’s been years now, but for some reason, I’m really missing our old “Brazil challenge” WE matchups from back in the day. But with the time difference the way it is, I don’t see myself joining any of you guys online anytime soon. As to the network issue, I’ve become convinced my switch is f...

Dusting off this old thread because I need some home network help / info. Here in Munich, we have Telekom for our internet and TV, and the TV box (Magenta Box) is connected via Ethernet to the modem/router (Speedport Smart 3). I had the TV Box connected along with everything else (Apple TV, Xbox, et...

Interesting read about a double-blind survey trying to tell the difference between 8K and 4K: https://www.techhive.com/article/3529913/8k-vs-4k-tvs-most-consumers-cannot-tell-the-difference.html?utm_source=Adestra&utm_medium=email&utm_content=Title%3A%208K%20vs%204K%20TVs%3A%20Double-blind%20study%...

Can’t say I’m the biggest Nats fan, but. . . Went to the first ever Nats game at RFK Stadium with my parents, and also went to the first ever Nats game at the proper Nats stadium with my Dad (Ryan Zimmerman hit a walk-off homer to beat the Braves in a weird, one-game series to inaugurate the stadium...

“Welcome back, to the stage of History!” Soul Calibre was a revelation to me. Very different style of fighting game from the Street Fighter on the SNES we had played so much. And Toy Commander! I probably put more time into that game than any other on the DreamCast, except maybe NFL 2K. Wow, it’s cr...

Does anyone have a Sony X900F model TV? It’s a 2018 model, and I’m pretty sure that’s the one I’m going to get as we get settled here in Munich (the European name of it is the XF9005). It gets a very good review over at rtings.com, at one point they considered it the best “midrange” 4K TV to get and...

What skill did you have to activate with the Alexa for these Xbox one features? I don’t see an official Xbox looking one.
