If you're talking about Super Baseball 2020 for the Genesis (that's the only thing that springs to mind), yes, and I loved it. But the team that was virtually all robots was so much stronger than the other ones that it became pretty tedious to play. Your choices were basically to always win as the robot team or always lose as another one.

That does sound pretty cool, but it'd probably be a PR disaster. Someone would inevitably claim that whatever company made the game was profiting from the struggles the Negro League's players went through. It'd be complete nonsense, of course, but I think it's a touchy enough issue that no company would risk making the game. Come to think of it, does MLB own the rights to Negro League interests? If so, does Sega have exclusive rights to those as well?

10,104 and done.

8000ish. I'll probably end up with about 10k.

Just got this yesterday. Really amazing game. It's very hard for me to get into turn-based RPGs, so this was a really pleasant surprise. Honestly, the best part about DQVIII might just be the music. Wherever you go in the world, the beautiful orchestral scores are there to greatly enhance the experience. I think I'm gonna track down the OST.

I love this stuff. Very nicely done, Toxx.

Well, shit. This is pretty disappointing, as Spencer was one of the best parts of The West Wing, engaging and funny while not getting preachy and overblown as some characters on the show tend to do. Very sorry to see him go.

I'm not sure what the total is, but the number for the launch sales I keep seeing is 123,000.

Happy birthday, Zack! Happy birthday, Goldeneye/Jacob Helmsley/whoever else I'm forgetting!

I'd like to go on the record as saying this guy is a complete idiot if he thinks that premise is in any way remarkable or extraordinary. Also, Trey and Matt are funnier on their worst day then the Farrelys are on their best.

Nick Arcade? The last bit about the shopping spree doesn't sound familiar, but the rest is dead on.

Even though it shows that G4 is straying further and further away from the network's original programming, I really don't mind these cancellations at all. Neither show was particularly entertaining and both could be downright annoying at times. So long as they leave X-Play (and to a lesser extent, AotS and Cinematech) alone, I don't really care what happens with G4. I would love to see Judgement Day cancelled. Tommy Tallarico is one of the most infuriating people on television, and that's saying a LOT.

You're right. She's a sweetheart.

Ay. I'd have reservations about a Beltran for Ramirez trade. Giving up Benson as well would not make me happy.

"Feces! Hahahaha."

I can't say I'm surprised. The store near me was always in constant disarray;there was merchandise stacked haphazardly in every corner of the store and it was always difficult to find a particular item. I always avoided going there if I could help it.

Figures of Kirby, Link, Homestar Runner, and Naruto. Yes, I'm a huge nerd.

Cool. I really like your enthusiasm, and am definitely looking forward to reading your match.

Currently watching The Brain That Wouldn't Die. Notable for being the first Mike episode, sure, but it's also damn funny. "You're not my dad!

I gotta be honest, the Christmas PPV was looking kinda lackluster earlier in the week. The show helped a LOT.

*shrug* I still cling to the dream of being in possession of every MST3K episode made available to the public. I have about 95% of Mike's episodes but only about a dozen of Joel's. Still a ways off, but I'll get around to it someday.

The Mets signed Julio Franco to a 2-year, $2 million-ish deal. *slaps forehead* I can't find the story in print, but Dan Patrick announced it on his radio show earlier in the day.

My God. For every halfway-decent game on that list, there's twenty complete pieces of crap. No wonder they went bankrupt.
