Fight Night Round 4 getting free control scheme update, DLC {Joystiq}
Jul 9th 2009 1:06PM Selling mine back today. I love FNR3 and I played with the sticks for about 6-8 careers. The layout isn't my problem. I hate the fact that the game has been focused almost entirely on counter punching.
Ok, so a dodge and then a strike is huge. I'll give you that one. But now I need to strategically time my blocking as to create another counter. I can beat on a guy for 9 rounds but I'm fucked if I don't counter and get hit with one in the tenth. It make normal blocking and punching almost irrelevant. That's why I hate this game.

Jun 29th 2009 9:09PM HATE IT. The new counter system is awful. Basically you can beat the crap out of a guy for 9 rounds, and unless you counter him you're screwed. Unless it's a counter, your punching doesn't do crap. Then, all the CPU needs to do is counter you 2-3 times and you're dog meat. The entire game is now basically waiting for your opponent to throw a punch that you can avoid and then try to counter.
I played probably 6-8 careers of 60 plus fights each and loved it all. I appreciate a lot of the improvements but the counter system is too heavily weighted. I'll be trading this game soon.

Joystiq hands-on: Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10, now with frisbee golf! {Joystiq}
May 11th 2009 10:34PM Did they get rid of that bloody horrible female announcer from last year? I won't buy another Tiger Woods game until she is gone. What happened to David Ferherty? I'd take anyone from the CBS or NBC golf crew over that annoying woman.
First Drive: 2010 Lincoln MKZ, a solid performer gets a makeover {Autoblog}
Apr 17th 2009 10:13PM I too got a sweet deal on an '08 last June and love it. I bought it 4 months old with 3000 miles on it and paid $9,000 off original sticker. I drive a lot for my job and picked it over a 3-series or an C-series for the following reasons: more comfortable for longer distances, about the same fuel economy but with regular fuel, more standard options (love the cooled seats), lower insurance, lower cost and the kicker:
I called a BMW dealership and asked what the cost of oil changes, brake/rotor replacements, and alternator replacements would cost after the maintenance plan expired. .. I literally laughed at the guy over the phone and went straight to buy the MKZ.
