IGN has posted another Madden NFL 09 blog called We Didn't Forget.

Quote:
"Wow, so it’s hard to believe that it’s been 20 years since we made the first Madden Football. It’s equally hard to believe how much the game has evolved during that time and how much the PS2 and Xbox have participated in that evolution."

HD's Hot Links After Dark (7/1/08)
12:34 AM - July 2, 2008. Posted by hdaniel1. Written by Daniel Hee

If you guys have read Steve's Tuesday Morning Other Stuff post, I am going to do the same here. In a nutshell, try to comment on the links I post so I could see what interests the OS community and what doesn't interest you.

If you don't want to comment on the links, then try to at least answer the QOTN. If you don't want to reply to the QOTN, then just post something in general about you, what is bothering you, something that happened at work, etc. Just post something, so my hot links post have more replies than Steve!

Anyways, nothing eventful today, just a ordinary work day.
  • QOTN: Do you believe my hot links post will surpass Steve's Morning Other Stuff post in replies?

UPDATE: More links!

Finally went back to work after two weeks off. It actually felt great and for some reason, the work load was not hectic as usual, and this is with my partner on vacation this week!

As usual, have to answer the questions where I have been on my vacation. Some people did realize how important my job role was to them. I spoiled them rotten!
