Just got mine, this thing looks pretty beast. Going to try this out later tonight.

We have a draft pick?

That they're both defensive minded and have won championships? ^_^ I was cracking up when I was watching this live. Ron's the man.

He'd be an upgrade over Puke Walton coming off the bench. Can defend and hit the three...sounds like a winner in my book. We NEED to address our PG problem though. Fisher's getting older and Farmar is as good as gone.

They better bring Maggette off the bench, or the Bucks will have problems with him and Jennings fighting for shots.

My only qualms about him leaving is that we could of traded him when we had the chance and we didn't. Oh well. Looking forward to finding an actual back-up point guard now.

Closing this up before it gets out of hand.

I was thinking about going, but I can't really take the time (and money) to go down to L.A. It's a 2 1/2 hour drive with no traffic to L.A, and with certain streets closed, and everyone out to see the parade, traffic will be horrendous tomorrow. Going down and back will easily be an all day event, and I just don't have the time to do it. If I lived in L.A, it'd be a different story for sure.

Starts at 11 AM! Going to be watching it live as it happens. Anyone else going to tune in or be at the parade? :glasses:

Uhhh, Kobe has led them to the Finals for three years in a row? They've only had Pau for three years, and every year they have gone to the Finals. But OK. Winning two out of three years isn't bad, considering the 2008 Celtics was one of the greatest defensive teams ever.

They only give you $100 in trade in value, so if your 360 is in pretty good condition still you would probably get more if you just sold it. How much is the new slim model, $299? $250? You'd still have to put out some money, it wouldn't be a "free" upgrade, so to speak.

These current systems are on a 10 year life cycle, and we're about half way through, more or less. I wouldn't be surprised in the least to see the next generation of systems come out in about 5-6 years. As for what system will be the strongest? No idea. If 3D TV catches on, you'll probably see that and more motion sensor type of involvement in the next gen systems, along with improved graphics.

And I agree with Ben. Why can't Kobe just be Kobe, and drop the comparisons with MJ.

Couldn't ask for a more intense game seven. What a defensive game this one turned out to be. Huge props to the Celtics for putting up a hell of a fight and keeping me on my toes. But that made the victory that much sweeter. I think this series, far and away, was one of the best I've ever seen. Amazing basketball to say the least. There, I gave my props to the Celtics...now to celebrate. BACK TO BACK CHAMPIONS OF THE WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORLDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. THREE-PEAT COMING UP! Can't say enough about how well our guys played. I love you guys, thank you for winning this title against our greatest rival of all time. An epic ending to an epic series. LAKERS.

Well, it shouldn't be too surprising. Halo is the flagship series for Xbox, and to have Halo 3 be out soon after the 360 was released, (or was it released with it? Can't remember now.) it was the kind of game that would sell systems.

6 is right up there for my favorite games of all time as well, and it's definitely my favorite Final Fantasy. But alas, I feel we are starting to get off the topic here. Back to the original subject... I don't get why some people feel the need to bash other consoles. I like all three systems pretty equally...

I just hope it turns out better than R2. Poor writing, excessive fan service, and filler-esque episodes just killed R2 for me. Which is a shame, really, because season one was quite good. A prequel would be cool, though.

Had the N64 used discs instead of cartridges, Final Fantasy would still be a Nintendo exclusive.

Glen Davis said the same thing, so I don't really think it's a big deal. It's not like he said the Lakers wouldn't be going back to L.A....

This is going to the most climatic finish in recent years. Props to the Celtics for making it back to the Finals, and putting on a good fight against us. That said, with Perkins out, I think the Lakers can smell the blood, and they'll go for the kill. I expect another excellent performance from our guys. Don't let me down, fellas.

Snake, I think you're not understanding some of the differences between watching a NBA game on TV, and being at the actual stadium. Sports stations often dampen the crowd noise on live broadcasts, which means you start picking up all the other noises like music and what have you. But when your in the stands, the music is one of the last things you notice. The crowd is much louder, you can hear some of the action on the court (depending on how close you are). If you're really into the game, you're not going to even notice the music playing, if its playing at all.

But FF13 is on three discs for the 360...so what would an extra disc or two of content matter?

A ton of people play it. Just go look at the thread here in video game forum. As for the BD's holding more space, yes that's true. But I'm sure if they really wanted to they could of added a couple more discs to hold the extra stuff they cut for the 360.
