So even though it would mean the Cardinals did not get in, I am not sure I really like the extra WC spot. As it is, there has been a lot to talk about already this postseason. Topic 1 - The umpiring in the NL Wildcard game STLvATL: From the time out strike out, to the infield fly. Topic 2 - Game 1 NLDS: The big Red Machine wins without a starting pitcher. Topic 3 - The Texas collapse: End of the regular season to the early exit against BAL and just for fun Topic 4 - Bryce Harper: Harping on the reporters post game 2

So for the week of Thanksgiving, I bought Dragon Age for the Xbox 360. I spent the first day playing the intros for the Mage and the Human Noble. I decided to start with the Human Mage. Now the reason I got this game was due to a comment my wife made about the game. On her google reader, she mentioned that her Wheel of Time filter listed that Dragon Age was very Wheel of Time like. So I got the game and in a way that person was correct. You are massing an army to keep the Blight from spreading and taking over the land. You fight the ArchDemon's hordes of demonspawn. There is a character named Logain but it is spelled differently. And I have found the serpentli…

Anyone watch the pilot on this? A little interesting. Definite grab for the The Mentalist crowd imo. I'll keep watching for now.

I mean i know most DM arent Football(soccer) fans but i thought there would be atleast one thread concerning one of the biggest and most prestigious tournament in European football. Well i started one and i want everyone to post their favorite club. Juventus Juventus are historically the most successful club in Italian football and one of the most laureated and important globally.Overall, they have won fifty-three official titles on the national and international stage, more than any other Italian club: a record twenty-eight league titles, a record nine Italian cups and five national super cups and, with eleven titles in confederation and inter-confederat…

They are sitting on the hugest freaking gold mine and they do NOTHING with it They have so many franchises that are beloved by millions but the only one they exploit is Mario and we love it Mario Party is excellent and Mario Kart is super fun I've also heard great things about the sports games such as the Olympics series and the Paper Mario series seems cute if nothing else Even Yoshi and Luigi get their own spin off games from time to time This is fantastic but why why WHY doesn't Nintendo do this with their other IPs? Take Pokemon for instance If you go onto gaming forums it's like every other month someone says "Hey what if Nintendo made a Pokemon MMO?" Then…

Anyone else watching this? Anyone else extremely upset there has not been a new episode in what feels like forever?

I honestly just felt embarrassed for the replacement refs-- it's not their fault they were forced into a situation they couldn't handle. The NFL didn't even need to lockout the refs in the first place; it was just to prove a point. Anyways, I'm glad that whole debacle is over. And...HI! *waves at Hax, Krak, Emp, JD and anybody else I forgot*

As many of you know I,(your boy) JD, from time to time (read: whenever I actually win) do a recap of the weekly goings on (don't forget happenings) of our local fantasy football league (complete with an inordinate amount of parentheticals). Today will prove to be one of those times (Because as those in the know know, I am the newly minted owner of a slightly used (mostly some rear end damage over the weekend) Hax (canadian model, but what are you gonna do?). So, shedding all my asides lets move into the recap. Week 1, DM Fantasy league. Some new things to point out to some of my league mates before we move on. Some things I just noticed about the Yahoo league …

Kill me.

So, for those of you that dont know, the Humble Indie Bundle is a package of games that you can buy for whatever price you want and the money goes to ((In percentages of your choice)) Charity, the Developers of the games and the people who host the Bundle. Now if you pay above the average, which is usually below 8-10$, you get another game and any others that they add on during the sale. As an example the most recent bundle had 6 games on it and just added 4 more. If you payed above the average you were instantly given those 4 new games. Also I might add that almost all of these games come with their sound tracks. Easily worth the purchase in my eyes especially since each…

Has anyone seen this yet? I...didn't like it but I did think it was an improvement from the last movie plot wise I enjoyed Leon and Ada being included in this one and uhh...Not much else I can say in the positive Actually no ok while the ending was utterly ridiculous it actually made me interested to see the last movie I am expecting something like Starship Troopers mixed with DBZ Edit: for anyone who doesn't mind spoilers and isn't planning on watching the movie anyway here is the end scene that I am talking about

Okay the game is called DC UNIVERSE ONLINE and its a free downlowd and play game. I admit this game is for DC Comics but the character creation is great. Villain or Hero factions, PVP or PVE...player vs player or player vs enviroment...if you want to fight each other I suggest PVP but u can switch between the 2 so it dont matter much. You can create the White Tower, Band of the Red Hand, Black Tower, The Chosen/Forsaken,etc leagues and be in groups of 8 in an open world you can interact with literally hundreds to thousands of other players. I plan to make a Shadow League...till there are enough players to branch out to specific leagues based on affiliations. I know it…

This game is called Slender, and it is free for those who want to try it. The premise is simple: an unnamed and unseen character (you) has to navigate a forest and collect 8 notes. Meanwhile, just to make things interesting, you are being relentlessly pursued by a being known as the Slender Man. I've tried it, and the result was nearly bowel-movement inducing. This game is terrifying. Have fun.

*cough* *cough* That's how you do a kickstarter Red Eagle. You should have stayed with Obsidian.

Each week i'll post games for you guys to select from; there will be 4 categories. Games worth 2 points, games worth 4 points, games worth 5 points and the Hail Mary which is worth 10 points. You are only allowed to offically pick one, please put the team you pick in a different color font than what you type in listed in to make it easier on me. If you pick the winner, you get the points. The person with the most points gets an e-cookie and bragging rights on DM until next season for knowning your stuff when it comes to football. i'll keep an updated list of points in this post. and heres a link to the Playoff Rules useful links - NFL Standings & Poin…

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uk06mR-yt9w Well there's the show they announced. It looked absolutely crazy. Unfortunately it got cancelled so I'm sharing this for absolutely no other reason than I'm bummed out right now.

so i got this game, used for $49 at gamestop Friday. i've already sucked 15 hours into it. this game is hands down the BEST game of 2012. the series is good, Darksiders one is meh imo; but this installment is a must own for any gamer. the combat is smooth, the transitions for switching weaponry is seamless, to include going to your item selction for potions and spells mid combat. the targeting system is great, better than any shooter i've played. the combat is very hack and slash, with no real combo scheme that i can tell, but the fluidity of the movements and the agility of Death is so remarkable that the true satisfaction comes not from building combos but…

This thread's purpose is to talk about shows from the past that you may just be catching up on. This is for TV shows only. If a show is currently on TV, please post on that specific thread or create a new one if no thread exists.

starts Sunday June 17th at 9/8c with a 2hr premier on TNT! i . . . . . . . cant . . . . . . . . wait!!!!!!!! anyone else looking forward to this show? [media=]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tg8sujxWids[/media]

the first episode airs on nickelodeon Saturday April 14th @ 11/10c am you can also view episodes on Nicks website here currently, the first two episodes are available for veiwing i've marked it on my DVR to record as i've heard really good things from people who've seen the first few episodes. its got a wiered premier time for this show though, unlike the first Avatar, which premiered new episodes on Fridasy at 8pm est, the new episodes for this show are airing during the Saturday morning cartoon line up

Not sure if this belongs here or in TV/Sports section since it's kinda a mix of both, but are there any E-Sports fans here?

This is one of the best show to have come along in a long time, Jeff Bridges is outstanding. And Sam Waterston is one of my favorite actors anyway. And I'm pleasantly surprised to see that it hasn't turned into the iberal propaganda show one has come to expect from HBO. After all, this is the network that brings us Bill Maher. HBO's decision to cast Bridges' character as a Republican is a fresh change and really took some guts. Kudos to them.

Anyone here watch Leverage? :3 It's the first live action show I've watched in ages. I'm on season 4 and I find i highly intriguing and awesome when it isn't being aggravating and boring.

http://www.thepetitionsite.com/372/809/248/make-american-mcgees-alice-in-otherland-a-reality/ Link says it all, really.

A new podcast. I just watched the first one. I'm not sure if Karl will be in every ep but this, at least I thought, was hilarious. If any of you are even really aware of this stuff. http://youtu.be/Xw2bTpyHGCE

Has anyone played this here? I'm talking about the one from Tell Tale games. I haven't played it myself but I've been watching someone play the episodes as they come out and man that game is crazy good! Episode 3 comes out tomorrow and I'm excited to see more of the game. Anyone else?

Anyone excited for Star Wars: The Old Republic? I know I am...can't wait to play a smuggler. SWTOR

Hey, sorry if this is in the wrong spot but I was wondering why there's Movie, Games, TV, Sports Discussion but there isn't one for music in the Entertainment sub-forum. There's probably been a lengthy discussion about it that I've missed..

Anyone still watching this?
