01:46 AM - July 4, 2008. Posted by hdaniel1. Written by Daniel Hee
Pasta Padre has posted a article called NCAA Football 09 EASW Videos.

Quote:
"The first uploaded videos from NCAA Football 09 to EA Sports World have gone up allowing for the opportunity to see how they look this year. As the site has improved they have also added the ability to embed the videos. Since there are limitations to how many you can store it’ll be more useful for short term viewings but is still nice to have nonetheless."

Quote:
"he controls have gotten some additions this year - if you don't want to bash A or B while running track, you can for example move the sticks in circles or up and down. This doesn't feel good for me, so I ended up using A+B anyway. The graphics are pretty good, animations aswell and there really isn't much to complain about there."

Do you like the links? Describe to us which is your favorite link of the day. 10 replies from yesterday, I know we could beat that!

So yesterday I called out SPTO, BK, and Acid and they didn't even reply with a post! Well, I didn't see SPTO or BK on yesterday, but I did see Acid online. I guess he doesn't check the main page! Hmph!

Nothing really happened at work today, just less busy. Not even a strange story I could tell you while on the bus to work. Even tho a while ago someone took a leak in the back of the bus by the back door. Gross!
  • QOTN: Do you have any shocking or strange stories to share?

UPDATE: More linkies!

My links are better than Steve's! Be sure to comment on them. Also stay tuned later as I always update my hot links with more links!

So Steve got freakin' 34 replies! Okay, not a problem, it's going to be 35 later on, since I am going to throw my 2 cents in about automobiles in general. SPTO, Acid, BK, were are you guys?

Today I went to my favorite lunch place. It's called Fort Street Bar & Grill. They have the best plate lunches in town. I noticed they raised there prices by 25 cents.(No surprise here.)

I also get to watch SportsCenter while eating lunch. Well, the 6 PM EDT SportsCenter. Kind of neat that is the evening SportsCenter on the east and it's lunchtime in Hawaii!
