The *real* necessary next step in sports games.

Posted 12-29-2009 at 10:15 PM by ASB37
As the decade comes to an end, many thoughts, lists, and videos are being compiled on the best and worst of the past 10 years. Technology specifically, is a great case study for how far an industry can come in 10 years. Sports gaming has come a long way since 2000. From graphics to game play, and even presentation many things have changed. Looking at games I played in as a kid in the 90's, games like NHL 94, and Sports talk football, to games I played as a teen and college student in this decade,...

Saying Goodbye to Conan

Posted 02-20-2009 at 06:19 PM by ASB37
I'm not sure how many OS'ers are aware, but tonight's Late Night show will be the very last for Conan O'Brien. After 16 years of service Conan will be moving to LA and taking Jay Leno's spot on the Tonight Show.

This is just a short blog to commend my favorite late night talk show host. If any of you have been watching the past few days, you can see why Conan has been both a class act and revolutionary during his stint on Late Night. I know I'll be tuning in anxiously tonight watching...

HDTV At Last!

Posted 01-11-2009 at 01:05 PM by ASB37
So after nearly 2 years of owning a PS3 and playing it on a standard definition tv, I finally went out and purchased my very first HDTV. Being a broke college student I couldn't spend alot of money on a top of the line HDTV. So for the past year I've been keeping my eye out for deals and sales etc, until I finally found the TV for me. I am now the proud owner of a 32" Sylvania HDTV.

I know, not the most recognizable name in HDTV's but for the price $400, and the size it works...

My New Obsession with Trophies

Posted 01-04-2009 at 06:17 PM by ASB37
Ok so it's not so much an obsession because I only have two games with trophy support (GTA IV and Uncharted: Drake's Fortune) but count me among those who love trophies/achievements. Now up until a few months ago the PS3 did not have any form of achievement system like the X-Box 360. So I really didn't really know what I was missing because I was a PS3 only gamer. I heard mixed reviews, some people loving the achievement system and the way it could extend the life of some games, others seeing it...

How the New OS Won Me Over

Posted 12-10-2008 at 04:41 PM by ASB37
So as I approach 6 years ( or according to my card 7 years) here on OS I realize that so much has happened to this place even in just the time I have been here. Let me start by saying first that I have been lurking on these forums for years. I have posted here and there occasionally but never with any sort of consistency. I have, however, been visiting this site daily for as long as I can remember. I was a skeptic when I first heard about the OS merger and didn't know what it would mean for the...
