Loving all the bowl games today and the Big Ten losing all their games today and waiting for Wisconsin to lose too. :D Go TCU!

Allicrombie

0-4 the Big Ten train choo-choo

In other news assuming OU wins I'll be 5-1 in my bowl picks today:) The Gators won most importantly. Sending Urban out with stylez.

I'm just hoping Oregon wins for the Pac 10.

I agree they had a hell of a season this year.

How was New Year's Eve for you guys? I actually took it pretty easy this year and went over to a friend's house. There were a bunch of us drinking beer and playing both board games and video games. I drove home sober and woke up feeling good today, which is nice. I usually start the year off with a hangover.

Well the Bucs aren't going to the playoffs. Still was an incredible season for them. 10-6, a year ago we were 3-13. I really would have loved it if we could have made the playoffs though.

I was really surprised by the Bucs this year. Even though I hate Blount, he had some magical games the Bucs. At least my teams got into the playoffs. Go Pats and Packers!

My favorite NFL teams are the Bucs, Packers and Vikings.

Bucs: because Tampa is my home town.

Packers: because I have relatives that live up there and I have been a die-hard Brett Favre fan since I was 7-8 yrs old.

Vikings: because Brett Favre went to Minnesota and they have also drafted several other players I enjoy such as Adrian Peterson and of course the Gator Percy Harvin.

I ended up over at my best friend's house today. We played a lot of COD Blops and some SSFIV. Good times. I can enjoy COD in splitscreen against friends, but that is it for me. I'm not looking forward to going back to work tomorrow.

Yet I'm not even prepared for applying for jobs and taking my GRE exam. Hopefully I can get a job right out of college and work for a couple a years then hope to have enough saved up for anesthesiologist assistant school.

Rag and SWJ, do you guys recommend the Move since I have tons of Best Buy gift cards and was thinking about buying it. I will only mainly use the Move for games like Socom and KZ3 but the Sports game it comes with looks pretty fun.

Sports Champions is fun if you've got people to play with regularly. It looses some appeal when you play it alone. Tumble is a neat concept, but again, it isn't much fun by yourself. I don't use it often. KZ3 will be the make it or break it game for me. I wish the beta supported Move so that I knew if it was implemented well or not. The controller is good, but right now there just isn't much software to go with it.

GS needs to stop posting new stuff about the 3DS..it is making me antsy in the pantsy :( Are they going to have the same region settings as the last installments (open region, no limitation)? I have heard and if not I may pick one up and play some RPGs that have recently came out.

I'm just afraid if I buy it, it won't get that much use out of it since the only two games that I know for sure that I would play with it is KZ3 and Socom 4. I've seen no other games worth playing except for LBP2.

Hey all,

I've been a GameSpot member for a little over a year now, but I've mainly been active in the Australian forums, giving you a hint at where I'm from. The forums over there are great, but as of late there hasn't been much activity, which is why I've come over here. I've posted, oh, say, 10-20 messages in here before (not the Lounge, just on random topics in this board). I'm planning on staying in the Lounge now, and I'll soon move to other boards as well. Maybe I'll see you guys around. In the meantime, you're welcome to connect with me on any of my networks below.

Have access to a bathtub? Fill it with hot water mixed with eucalyptus-menthol bubble bath and soak in there until it feels better, then stretch thoroughly after you get out of the bath. Surprisingly effective.

Is that from prior experience? I do work out a lot but haven't done squat in about a month or so. I do abs about 3 times a week but I couldn't even finish the last ab exercise. I do have a bathtub/shower but don't have that bubble thing you're are talking about.

I just finished up my second workout using EA Sports Active 2. It may not be a P90X workout, but it kicked my ass. It feels good though. Soon it will be light enough and warm enough that I can start riding my bike again. It isn't so much a New Year's resolution, but I want to lose a bunch of weight by summer.

It is mostly cardio, but there are several workouts that involve resistance bands, and you can ditch the bands in favor of weights. Weights are the last thing I need, between my build and handling 100lb rocks on a near daily basis, I'm mostly just looking to shed some pounds.

Ah, very true. I'll have to take a look and see what kind of workouts it has since I'm curious as how its done.

Yup. After killing yourself trying to meet whatever your goal was at the gym, a eucalyptus soak in a hot tub is pure heaven. :)

Well one score came out last month--45. I'll probably just rent it regardless as money is now very tight due to Christmas debt.

definitely not since i've bought a ton of games on steam the last couple weeks. hopefully won't be buying anything until killzone 3.
