I'm looking forward to NLL lacrosse in January. If the lockout is still on, that'll probably replace my hockey fix. It is, after all, rather similar.

Until then, I have found myself watching some of that World Series of Poker stuff. It's fairly entertaining. I've seen the odd non-NHL or classic NHL game.

I have yet to watch more than a few minutes of any NFL or NBA game this season but I did watch some CFL playoff games back when that was on.

always loved the nfl, but i miss my hockey. after the super bowl, i guess ill watch a little more college basketball than normal.. and ill be more excited about spring training than ever

I forgot about college sports. They get little interest up here. I was about to say that it includes our colleges too but perhaps I should go a bit further and say especially for our colleges.

I'm lucky to have an AHL team in the city where I live at. I only go to 1 game a year, but I need to go to more games. I have started to play more hockey games to past the time. I'm currently playing NHL Hitz Pro. I do have NHL 2k5, which I'll play once I'm tired of NHL Hitz Pro. At least they are meeting next week. Its better then nothing.

Wait...you mean there actually was a Hockey league?......with professionals?

oh yeah I remember now guys like Gordie Howe, Wayne Gretzky, and Mario Lemeiux used to play right?

since those days I haven't cared much about professional hockey so it can stay gone as long as it likes

    • Microsoft announces the return of Xbox exclusives with Gears of War and Clockwork Revolution by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Microsoft had plenty of announcements to make today at the Xbox Games Showcase celebrating 25 years of the gaming brand. Now, under the leadership of the new Xbox CEO Asha Sharma, Xbox games are going back to their original release methods. She appeared in the livestream itself to announce the return of Xbox console exclusives. This means two major upcoming games from first-party studios won't be coming to PlayStation or Nintendo consoles: Gears of War: E-Day from The Coalition and Clockwork Revolution from InExile. Both titles will only be coming out on Xbox Series X|S consoles and Windows PCs, ditching any plans they had for PlayStation. "These are not timed exclusives," confirmed Microsoft. "We’re committed to investing in and growing XBOX both on console and beyond." The company confirmed that any already announced Xbox titles for PlayStation, under previous leadership, will continue to arrive for the rival platform. This means games like the new Halo remake, Forza Horizon 6, Fable, and State of Decay 3 will still be available on PlayStation, either at launch or later. It sounds like any new projects announced by the company will avoid other consoles in the same way. Microsoft first opened the floodgates by bringing titles like Sea of Thieves, Grounded, Hi-Fi Rush, and Pentiment to PlayStation and Nintendo consoles back in 2024. Since then, almost every new game release from Xbox Game Studios has arrived for rival consoles alongside Xbox and PC. This decision follows Sony's plans to ditch its own multiplatform releases too. Outside of multiplatform live service titles, the PlayStation maker is even abandoning its PC porting endeavors that started years ago.
    • I'm missing the beginning part of this equation... but for the sake of the convo, you don't get to take a $250(?) set of normally priced RAM, jack it up to over $500/600/800 just because of a market shift, then lower it back down to more than what it was originally and call that a "sale". Not the author of this post... the manufacturer/seller.
