Jumping ship....

Well since it´s my first post here at DS I thought I´d bring some news. Here are some videos of 989´s Gamebreaker 2004. Still waiting for some movies of Gameday. I know it´s 989 and there isn´t much love for it but the videos of Gamebreaker don´t look too bad. There are a lot of choices for football games this year. Who knows maybe 989 will suprise this year. Check them out...

Wheeee! Jumping ship is quite fun... especially when jumping on such a well-polished and feature-filled ship as this one.
 
 Oh, Gamebreaker! I don´t trust 989 at all anymore, but we´ll see. I think they´ve lost most of their fans, but they still have a decent marketing department.. saw a commercial that was quite amusing today. Now if they could only take that money and put it into development.

 Welcome aboard, man. I must admit that your final post at SR was one of the more eloquent I´ve read about the whole situation over there. Makes all my verbal diarrhea look, no pun intended, shitty!
 
 Hope to see more of you around here!
 
 Take care,

Tim,
 Thanks for the link. Those movies looked pretty damn good. I liked Gameday last year even with its flaws and will be picking it up again this year. After watching the Gamebreaker movies I am definitely more intrigued then I was before. I know 989 is nowhere near the competition right now but I love football games and keep hoping they´ll regain their former glory. It´s been a long ride but each year they keep getting closer. Let´s see what this year has in store for them.
 
 As far as your jumping ship is concerned, I don´t blame you at all. I´ve been posting here for a while now and the past few weeks have been really bad at SR. I am thoroughly convinced that Matt has lost his mind and it´s sad. This new Mr. Clean image of his is ridiculous and the regulars who made the site what it is (no disrespect to Matt for putting up a good site in the past, but the forum regulars made it the place to be not the site) need to make a statement and just leave. Let him have his 6 year old mentality website. There is always Digital Sports and maybe even another website out there that will suit our needs. It´s gotten so bad at SR that I haven´t even seen a VinnyB post in quite a long time.

Tim,
 
 Welcome. And I´d like to hope that Gameday will rock, but last year´s version was soooo poor that they´ve got a lot of ground to make up. Maybe they were working on a new engine last year and just dumped out whatever on the public to have a release. Maybe it´ll be the sleeper pick of 2003.
 
 Or it´ll just blow chunks this year too. <IMG SRC="images/forum/icons/icon_smile.gif">

PK,
 Haven´t picked up GRIT yet so I can´t join in on the fun. <IMG SRC="images/forum/icons/icon27.gif">
 
 The bambina is fine. Almost 6 months old now and she´s already had 2 haircuts.

Two haircuts? Man, is she Demi Moore circa "Ghost" or are you Cornelius from the "Planet of the Apes," with descending traits? <IMG SRC="images/forum/icons/icon_smile.gif">
 
 Glad all is well, man.
 
 Take care,
