I for one think they may be cutting off their nose to spite their face. Doing away with game rentals and used game sales. I know a bunch of people that have consoles, I know more people that buy used than new. I buy used or wait til the price has dropped considerably before I will buy. It takes a special release for me to buy on release day.

I am not to impressed with the xbox one to be honest. Critics panned it, fanboys dissed it, EA loved it. I was wanting to like this one, but I may go ps4 this go around(if at all). For the record I was PSX, XBOX, PS3. So not a total PS fanboy/tool or hack.

What are your likes and dislikes about the announcements?

After my last pick went belly up, I was skeptical of picking another. Looks like a fun game. Not sure yet if I will pledge to this one.

In case anyone was wondering why Mizzou was invited to the SEC(all three of you), this is the reason why

Southeastern Conference sports — including football and basketball — will have a 24-hour-a-day home when the SEC Network launches in August 2014.

The SEC and ESPN announced a 20-year agreement and rights extension on Thursday. The deal includes a new television network and digital platform that will show SEC sports 24/7, including more than 1,000 events in the first year.

Included in the programming will be 45 football games, more than 100 men’s and more than 60 women’s basketball games, 75 baseball games and selected events from the other 17 SEC sports. The network will also feature studio shows and coverage of special events such as signing day and football pro days.

The digital network, which will launch nationally with AT&T U-verse, will show hundreds of additional events. Each SEC school will have the opportunity to produce and develop content for various platforms. The network will be based in ESPN’s offices in Charlotte, N.C.

The extension means the SEC will have its games on ESPN’s family of networks, plus the SEC Network, through 2034.

I will start posting BSB’s game of the week, it will feature a game from kickstarter mostly. Sometimes it might be a steam sale or an indie bundle. It might even be a nerdy tabletop game. But it will feature something cool and you have your choice of checking it out or not. This weeks pick is A small favor. It is a side scrolling 2D adventure. If you jump on the early bird special its only 6 bucks.
