Will probably get Ico and Shadow of the Collossus HD.  I haven't played them before and heard they're great. 

Am interested in this Sunday Ticket PS3 thing, but since the Chiefs suck it's probably not worth it this year.  I've got RedZone.

the defensive adjustments are tough.  However I am pretty good at tactical buildup and laying off on D.  The problem is I always dive and if the other team possesses near my box I'm just completely screwed.  It also seems harder to score.  My finishing is one of the weakest parts of my game so this seems like a problem.  I already average about 55%+ possession so I think my possession advantage will be overwhelming most games, so this should suit me.

holy crap - played the demo a week or so ago, thought "hmm, well the d changed but i think i like this".  played tonight, was like "man, they really emphasize containment.  i'm gonna have to be a patient son of a bitch."  figured i'd get the ropes of that eventually, and spent most of my time being pissed off that i didn't seem to be able to develop much in the final third. played solid possession through the midfield, couldn't create opportunities in front of goal.

well, long story short, i finally "remembered" (stopped being a dumbass) and realized that they changed the tackle button from fifa 10.   :D

i still can't finish, but buildup is getting better.

I bought the Ico collection as well, not sure what to think of it yet. Didn't play it the first time around either.

Might not get to play it much, with Gears 3, Dark Souls next week and Batman shortly after...

Ever since I got my 360 I have problems matching up with friends when they try and join my party or a game I'm in.  Says something about my NAT type not being open.  I reset my router and that did not help.  That is the extent of my knowledge on how to fix it.  I have no problems joining friends' games on my PS3.

Does it say Moderate for NAT type?

You can open up port 88, 3074 and that should do the trick

Yeah it says moderate.  Will I need to open these ports on my router or my firewall, or both?

Your firewall should be in your router. Linksys? Netgear?

Norton is on your PC, won't affect the X-Box.

I tried it out, with one player it seems kinda rough. Kinda funny being a ticker though.

being a ticker is great.  i played through all 14 levels (or maybe it was 12 levels).  the goal is that it's timed.  so alone it would suck.  as you advance you get more cash for the kills you get.  then you can purchase better beasts. 

anyway- you get through it and it records your time and measures your best time against your friends.  the bots are pretty good.

The new FIFA is great. I really like the tactical defending, but the best change they have made is that they give you the win now when some punk drops out of the game because you score too much.

They have been doing that on 11 too.  Been very satisfying.
