Prince was great. I'm glad they got somebody good for this year's show. I remember they had Aerosmith a couple of years ago but they screwed that up with having Britney Spheres and N'Suck perform with them.

I loved that aerosmith 1/2 time show

The Game:

Okay, I fully admit I watched this years game not caring about who won at all, but I must say I am now a huge fan that all Super Bowls should be played in inclement weather conditions!! Again not caring at all who won, but truly all of the turnovers just made it a so much more exciting to watch overall than they usually are.

Other than the weather making it more fun to watch, the outcome was more or less what I thought it would be.

The Commercials

I admit I did not pay attention the entire time and I did not get to see every single commercial since this year I had a few people at my place for the first time in a very long time, and I was more occupied with playing host all night (cleaning up, getting food and snacks, etc.) that anything else. However out of the commercials I did see, which I say is at least 70% of them, I can honestly say I do not remember a single one. FTR before someone jumps to conclusions, I was (and still am) completely sober all night. So the fact I cannot recall a single good commercial says to me from what I did see, I must have thought any of them were that good at all. Definitely disappointed at the commercials.

The Half Time Show

I am older than a good amount of people here, and I can say I pretty much grew up with Prince, and I never understood what the big fuss was, and this is even factoring in the fact that the older I got over the years, the more I appreciated him, he does have some great songs. However, all I can say is I really think he takes himself way, way to serious. As strange as it may sound, I have never even see they guy smile while on stage, he just always looks like a "Rock Star," always posing and such, and I just cannot stand him because of what comes off to be a "better than everyone else" attitude.

Also, I just thought it was so out of place to be playing the Foo Fighters like he did. I mean I understand the quick Hendrix he threw in there, but to play a relatively speaking new song by someone like the Foo Fighters, when he has so many songs of his own he could have played, just seemed so damn cheesy and forced.

Overall, this year the game itself was by far the most enjoyable aspect of it all, when it is usually a combination of the game and commercials, at least for myself.

The commercials were horrible, the only ones that gave me a slight chuckle were the Career Builder ones and the actual game was alright but nothing special.

I've decided to go into hibernation, much like the Bears offense was the entire game. By the way, did anyone else think the opening ceremony was really ****ing goofy?

Ya I didn't know what the hell the opening ceremony/show was all about, it felt like i was in some dream with hispanic people dancing with random colored things everywhere. Or was that what it actually was? :p

    • Alien Isolation 2 will bring a new protagonist and setting, watch the reveal trailer here

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Alien Isolation 2 will bring a new protagonist and setting, watch the reveal trailer here by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Only a few weeks ago, Sega and Creative Assembly dropped a teaser for a new Alien Isolation. Today at Summer Game Fest, Alien: Isolation 2 was officially announced with a new trailer while also confirming a whole lot of information about the setting of this survival horror project. Check out the reveal trailer above. Leaving behind the Sevastopol space station, the sequel will take players to a remote colony world. With a Xenomorph (or more) on the loose, players will be navigating both the surface of the weather-ravaged planet as well as "the claustrophobic confines of the Weyland-Yutani outpost of Kurosaki Station." Interestingly, Creative Assembly is leaving behind Amanda Ripley, the daughter of Alien's Ellen Ripley, as the protagonist too. While it hasn't confirmed a name yet, players will be taking the role of a new character for this new adventure. The setting is also being described as a new hunting ground for the Alien. This will have players improvising and developing new tools to aid in their survival and escape, all to avoid "cinema’s deadliest killer." "It has been over a decade since we created the original Alien: Isolation and I am so excited to show everyone the first glimpse of the sequel," says Al Hope, Creative Director at Creative Assembly. "Our dedicated Survival team at Creative Assembly has been working hard to create a new, evolved Isolation experience continuing the legacy of the Alien franchise, making the eponymous killer smarter, the environment harsher and the chance of survival slimmer." Promising the same deadly tension from the original from over a decade ago, Alien: Isolation 2 is in development for PC, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced yet.

      With how far Tim Apple's head has been up Trump's ass, there's no way this was done reluctantly.

    • CANT FIND SECURE BOOT ON BIOS

      Hello, From looking at the screen shots in your motherboard's manual at https://endownload.colorful.cn/EnDownload/MotherBroard/2022/Intel 600/Manual/Intel 600 Series BIOS English/Intel 600 Series BIOS User Guide.pdf, you go to the ADVANCED option at the top of the BIOS (UEFI) menu, then select SECURITY in the list of options on the left.  From there  you can enable and set the Secure Boot mode.
