Well, Thanksgiving is a little over a week away, and that means my dad will be handing out Christmas money to his three children next Thursday. Factoring out my expenses, such as Christmas gifts, I will only have money to buy one game right away. Should I get Left 4 Dead or NBA 2K9?

I played the Left 4 Dead demo and really enjoy the game, not to mention I would be buying it for the PC so it would be ten bucks cheaper. As far as NBA 2K9, I have been waiting with bated breath to play ... Read More

Nebraska - 27 @ Wake Forest - 38

The Demon Deacons didn't expect this much of a fight from the Thundering Herd. But in front of the hometown crowd, Marshall put up 34 points and 400 offensive yards against a Demon Deacons defense that is young and inexperienced, and showed that on the field yesterday.

"Our defense has to improve....bottom line," Wake Forest Head coach Jim Grobe said in his post-game press conference yesterday. ... Read More

Broken but Beautiful

Many people who play NCAA 09 Football will tell you that the Heisman difficulty setting is "broken". I disagree with this statement, as my 2008 season with the Wake Forest Demon Deacons on Heisman was one of the best seasons I have ever played in any sports video games.

Not to say Heisman doesn't have its problems. Turnovers are still rampant as they are on any difficulty level, but those can be cut down with sliders and intelligent play on your part. The computer may seem unstoppable ... Read More
