wow....what a game! what a day so far. a lot of exciting games. gotta love high definition. i have 3 tvs on around me all showing different games :)

The extreme amount of envy I feel cannot be fully expressed in words.

you know what though, CBS is ****ing me off. they are CONSTANTLY switching between games. i guess they have to, to keep people who can only watch one game happy. but i have the tvs setup so each one has a different game, and then 2 minutes later, they are all showing the same game!! so then i switch it around again some, and then in a few minutes, all back to the same game. i understand why they have to do it, but it makes multi-gaming very frustrating.

Well unfortunately MOST of us don't have the luxury of having three different TVs to show three different games :p. I applauded them for the same exact reason lol.

Well this year's opening weekend is definitely more exciting than last year's. Last year the Elite 8 round was insane. This year we've seen a return to the usual pattern of opening weekend being the most exciting. I'm loving it. O and not having to worry about brackets makes it THAT much more enjoyable lol. The Heels start tonight against Murray St. GO HEELS!!!!

man my bracket got busted by northwestern st....i still can't believe that shot fell. such crap. i think i had counted 6 upsets so far, and there are still like 8 games to be decided. thats a decent amount of 1st round upsets.

The biggest upset is brewing in the UConn-Albany game. Albany is up by 9 points in the second half.

Yup I'm wathcing that one. Possible history in the making??? I dunno UConn seems to be getting back on track as I type this but they're giving them all they can handle.

Yeah UConn waited to get going but once they finally did, wow! Amazing. WHen they play they look unstoppable but as evidenced tonight they have lapses. Against a stronger opponent they'll be made to pay for that. And George Mason over MSU? The upsets just won't stop! I don't know how many times I said it already but there's nothing like March Madness and I LOVE it :D

    • I found that stability back then was really down to the motherboard manufacturer. Back then i stuck with Microstar motherboards and VIA chipsets as they were ultra reliable. Most stuff was done with jumpers and left little room for user created problems 👍
    • Yes, Scoop was created to promote Coreutils for Windows. You can still see early versions of their website on the Web Archive. It was a joke that nobody took seriously. Microsoft's implementation of Coreutils, however, are built in Rust.
    • Looks like EA's Star Wars Zero Company will be out this August by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Over a year ago, EA surprise announced that a team of former Firaxis members is working on a brand-new Star Wars game. Dubbed Zero Company, the title would have XCOM-like turn-based tactics gameplay as players manage a squad of professionals from all over the galaxy. Now, just ahead of an official announcement, it looks like the release date has leaked out. The upcoming Summer Game Fest presentation on Friday is when EA is supposed to show off the title's gameplay footage, with fans also expecting it to reveal a release date. However, the ever-reliable billbil-kun from Dealabs says they have already managed to find out when the game is coming out and what versions fans will have the option of purchasing. Per the leak, Star Wars Zero Company has an August 27, 2026, release date attached to it. The title is slated to release on PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 with a $49.99 standard and $59.99 Deluxe edition. The leaker also adds that there won't be any early access perk attached to this special edition. Pre-orders could kick off alongside the official announcement this Friday, too. For those unfamiliar with the title, Bit Reactor is developing Star Wars Zero Company with help from Respawn Entertainment and Lucasfilm Games. The EA-published title is said to be set during the "twilight of the Clone Wars." We will have to wait and see if base building and management mechanics from the XCOM series will be present here, too. "You will step into the shoes of Hawks, a former Republic officer who leads Zero Company — an unconventional outfit of professionals for hire hailing from across the galaxy," reads the game description. "Hawks and Zero Company are recruited for an operation that pits them against an emerging threat that will consume the galaxy if left unchecked. To succeed, Hawks will lead a team of uneasy allies who must set aside their differences to overcome nearly impossible odds." You can catch the Star Wars Zero Company extended gameplay reveal at the Summer Game Fest showcase that's kicking off on Friday at 2 pm PT / 5 pm ET.
    • All their other games always had a new cast and new story, so that's not very surprising. The new dev is worrisome though.
