    With a big slate of games scheduled for Sunday I thought it would be a good time to hold another live blog. It is shaping up to be a great day of football. Beginning at kickoff of the first set of games I will have up a live blog posting which will be updated frequently throughout the course of the day and possibly even during the Sunday night game. I've listed out a few of the more compelling matchups that have huge playoff implications. Patriots @ Bills (1ET): In unfamiliar territory i...
  • Pastapadre Home Club

    Playstation Home finally hit open beta yesterday. While it isn't offering much right now it seems likely that gaming companies will be adding their own spaces where they can advertise and sell Home related items of their own with potential for more. I wouldn't be surprised to see EA and 2K Sports with theirs sometime in the near future. Also you can set up clubs which can assist in launching games with members. I believe I can only host one club but that individuals are able to join a handfu...

    As some of you may have already noticed I have installed a new comment system. This one seems to work well in both Firefox and IE and has replies show up in threaded form. It also allows registered users to give a "thumbs up"  or "thumbs down" to any particular comment. I'll be looking to find a way to allow for the editing of comments in the near future. I've started back using Twitter so anyone that would like to follow along here is my address. I've also added the last two updat...

    With the recent lull news wise I've been planning ahead for some of the soon to be released games. I should have Facebreaker tomorrow or Friday which will lead into some activities tying into that game and NHL 09 follows shortly thereafter. Here are just some of the things to look forward to. I'll be doing something for NBA 2K9 but am waiting to hear about the unannounced online element before planning it. If you are interested in taking part in any of these feel free to comment and just kee...
  • NFL Opener Live Blog on Thursday

    Posted September 2nd, 2008 at 11:46 am
    Something I've done a few times now that has seemed to be real successful is holding live blogs. The one for the NFL Draft and at the football community event actually represented the most traffic had received to those respective dates. So with the NFL season beginning on Thursday night featuring two teams that couldn't thrill me much less I thought it would be interesting to post comments throughout in the live blog. Even though I can't stand them it is a rivalry and the opener so it is ...
  • Pastapadre NFL Pick’em
    by pastapadre
    Posted August 27th, 2008 at 5:30 pm
    With the NFL season fast approaching it was time for me to set up the annual pickem. This is something I always enjoy especially since I've won two out of the last four years. The competition should be stronger though with an even larger group involved. This will be a straight pick'em and not factor in the spread. The low week for each person will not be dropped so it is important that you get your picks in every week. Missing one would potentially eliminate you from contention. Click ...

    Last night I opened up a thread in the forum to take on questions from the community. Whether game related or not I'll take the time and try to answer (at least to the extent that I can). So far it has been interesting, with topics ranging from the Madden related to preferred type of shampoo and favorite character on Lost. Once given the go-ahead to discuss NBA Live 09 I'll have a lengthy report on the game however there will still be quite a lot that I won't have included within it. So for...
  • Out today for NBA Live 09 Community Event
    by pastapadre
    Posted June 26th, 2008 at 8:53 am
    UPDATE: Unfortunately we have been asked to hold back on posting details from the event until sometime next week. I'll have a ton of info and impressions to share at that point. I expect to be away from the computer for most of the day due to the NBA Live 09 Community Event. The schedule is packed full of play time along with producer presentations and interaction. The NBA Draft follows and I'm unsure if I will have an online connection during that time. Continue to drop any thoughts or sug...
  • What to expect over the coming days

    As I prepare to depart tomorrow for the EA Football Community Event I thought I would leave a few details as to what can be expected each day. Wednesday: Travel day. Considering the cross country flight and time change it'll eat up practically my entire day. I'll check in when I'm settled and update the site with anything that may have been missed during that time. Thursday: NCAA Football 09 and NFL Head Coach 09 are featured. For myself I'm expecting to sit with NCAA for about three hou...
  • Live blog during the NFL Draft
    by pastapadre
    Posted April 25th, 2008 at 3:14 pm
    I've mentioned on a few occasions that I'll be live blogging during the draft on a number of subjects and anything else that happens to come up. From posting the Madden 09 rookie screenshots and pointing to other additions to the Madden draft site, some general thoughts on what is known so far about Madden & NCAA 09 (again I can't speak to the hands-on time until 5/2), to draft reaction, I'll be updating it on a regular basis throughout the day. It'll all start up right as the draft begins...
