Neowin's Official World Cup 2006 Thread



Recommended Posts

My comment was geared more towards other teams than Brazil (they are Portuguese, basically), e.g Argentina :p

Oh, so i forgive you. :laugh:

j/k

Actually i like Argentina....they played better than the Germans.....oh well...this is the past.

Congrats Italy, was a very nice game.

Congrats to the referee too.....the best one so far in this WC imo too.

I'll b behind france when they'll b playin against portugal. I would really love to see ronaldo's face when his team get beaten. I want to see him cry. He's just a little b*tch.

Go france, go zidane, go henry.

Let me guess.

Are you from England ?

:laugh: :laugh:

Ah man :cry: Was rooting for Germany since the beginning. Lehmann played very well.

Italy did play well but, almost all the time it was an Italian that would tumble down majestically and say "OMGOMG MY FACE MY FACE" when someone hit him in the back with his knee.

A long match it was, was going nuts, rain struck my dish and I couldn't see **** starting from 81 minutes for the next 15 minutes.

Now, France has to do it! :laugh:

oh no...it's really sad...we're out

still, it was a good game....congrats to the italians..they had better nerves

now, i hope, france will do it...

btw..one thing...to those saying that italians were not diving... - well, maybe not every italian, but totti simulated at least four times...so he should go and f*** himself for that :laugh:

I agree that the italians were diving, but can you (honestly) say the germans weren't?

The Germans dove the same, if not more than the Italians. Please, lets get away from this stupid dive talk :rolleyes:

When can a team win and not be blamed of diving? :no:

When they don't dive

poor defending throughout the game by the germans. What was happening in the right flank ? The italians could easily breach each and everytime. What were mertakasar and mertzelder doing ? Were they missing Frings in the middle?

I honestly thought they looked scratchy from the beginning and the defence was totally haywire. No proper markings, 2 people running behind the ball .... Sucked today to support the germans.

Hopefully France does make it thru to finals and beat the italians.

^

they probs were, but thing which ticks me off is the way the italians fall down in, such acting at times, gets annoying when you see it game in game out

yeah italians just love acting..and so much of it! anoying team really!

    • Thanks, Sony and Nintendo, you effectively killed platform-agnostic gaming. Long gone are the days when you could wish to play a specific game on whatever platform you were. Now, you have to buy the hardware just to play that single game. What, you're only interested in THAT game and nothing more? Bad luck, suck it and buy our console.
    • The AI data centers need it more than us so...let them gobble it all up at that price!
    • "CRAZIER than ever!" Crazy Taxi: World Tour is officially coming soon by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Sega announced it is working on bringing back some of its classic franchises in 2023, and while it has taken some time, the company finally gave fans a look at one of these new projects at the Xbox Games Showcase today, which turned out to be a brand-new Crazy Taxi entry. Watch the debut trailer above, which has snippets of gameplay in between the cinematic bits while blasting a track from The Offspring. Dubbed Crazy Taxi World Tour, this installment is aptly being described as being "CRAZIER than ever!" The director behind the original, Kenji Kanno, is helming this new entry as well, which will come with access to five new cities to drive in, competitive multiplayer modes, a vehicle customization system, and more. Axel is returning as a protagonist as well, but this time a mystery driver is offering him the opportunity to take his adventures to the streets in other countries. This will involve Axel chasing down masked villains that have somehow stolen his taxi, which means even more extreme missions and challenges to overcome. "From transporting passengers at top speed to tackling unique side missions and odd jobs across dynamic maps, there are countless ways to drive crazy and rake in big money," says Sega about this new installment after over 20 years. "Perform outrageous drifts, catch insane air, and drive at crazy speeds across five different cities as you work to deliver passengers and complete a variety of missions and challenges." The studio has even confirmed an in-game Arcade Mode that players will be able to access containing the original games for plenty of nostalgic action. Crazy Taxi: World Tour is currently slated to release sometime in 2027 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2.
    • This and Crazy Taxi are the two games that interested me the most from this showcase.
