¡VIVA ESPAÑA!

hey remember how germans haven't had ot play a team that has defense? now we are seeing what happens when they play a complete team.

This. Germany hadn't played a defense until today. They didn't fare too well when they finally got some opposition.

Their passing never got them anywhere though. If it wasn't for that corner we would be sitting half way through extra time right about now.

I was commenting on its beauty per se. :p

True that if they didn't score, those passes would be quite useless. lol

Spain won fair, I have to give them that. There's only one negative thing I want to throw at Germany:

don't give a damn who your enemy is and don't show them any respect, just play the game^^

This they didn't do today, they almost seemed in fear before spain

I am disappointed that the Germans were not able to shake off their Angst. You could tell right from the start that they played too much with their conscience and that they were afraid to go into attack mode. They played the typical German soccer all of a sudden. Very frustrating. But I forgive them. They played terrific games and beat England and Argentina in a manner that I've not seen in a German team since the 70s. I hope they are free spirited again on Sat and show what they can do. I wish Spain good luck winning the WC.

btw. bloody octopus. It was incorrect 2 yrs ago Ger vs Spain, why couldn't it have been incorrect again? Moody beast ;)

The octopus learned from its mistake.

That said, **** Spain.

The Germans looked ill at ease trying to play defensively, however once they came up against a team that can actually defend properly, they suddenly looked vulnerable again. However, if Spain are to overcome the dutch in the final, they will need to stop trying to play over elaborately, and focus on adding an extra touch of quality to their final third play.

Good job to Spain they deserved that win.

Now for the finals it's going to be epic, I'm going to be cheering for Netherlands because I've been cheering for them and England (when they were still alive) for the whole tournament. :)

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.

    • 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.
