I got my PS5 (with disc drive) Modern Warfare 2 bundle for $429 last October. Consoles were going for $379 - $399 at the time. Very much worth it.....even PS4 games run significantly better on it, have WAY faster load times and look better. FF16, FF7 Remake, God of War Ragnarok and Elden Ring have been a blast.

Also stole my daughter's Nintendo Switch to play Zelda Tears Of The Kingdom and still play it occasionally.
My wife was pissed when she figured out that not only can my PC play Tears of the Kingdom(via emulator), it can run it faster and with mods lol. Emulation is so much better than it used to be.
 
Back in the day of cathode ray tube screens, they said TV adds 10 pounds to your appearance.

Parents came to expect that their daughters would return from their first year of college having gained the requisite "freshman 15" pounds of added weight.

Looking at this digitized depiction of Iamaleava... enter into the lexicon the "EA twen-tay."
CRT TVs..oh man.,remember when you had to get a new one and dreaded removing and replacing..a dang 32 weighed like 200 lbs..guessing but wonder how close.

Guess that is better than those cabinet console units we had as a child..you park them things, they are there forever..no wife rearragements lol
 
Who was saying he'd actually start?

I do like him as sneaky depth though. 6 year guy, Bama game hero. Nice to have a back up like him. He was good enough to get on the field 2 years ago. Not surprised if he's a decent player right now.
Can't remember which source it was but someone said he's got a decent chance to earn the position.

But that's because of that experience. Most likely replaced by the young talent before too long if he were to get it
 
What sort of deal were you able to get on a system? Used or new?

Damn, just looked and new PS5 consoles without a bundle are back up to $499 here in the local JAX area. Glad I got mine when I did and I recommend getting the version with a disc drive for anyone who wants to be able to save on storage space. It requires you to get physical copies of the games to save on the space but totally worth it if you don't plan to add 1,2,4 or 8 TB of extra space.

Console with disc drive and 2TB of extra space is my sweet spot for having plenty of room for currently played games and you can always remove games and reinstall from your PS4 or PS5 library without losing any of your save game info as long as you don't delete those files which are stored separately from the game file.
 
Really hope individuals aren't watching SEC Media Days. So much love for Georgia, Texas, Mississippi and Alabama.

I listen and smile and think you guys have no idea what's a coming. Meaning the SEC guys not ya'll in before the pitchforks come swinging.
As much as I love college football, I've never cared even a little about Media Days. Seems like a colossal waste of time.
 
“Deep dive” means your instant analysis gift you often bellow on here isn’t worth the bandwidth you waste. You championed Hurd (like many) and dismissed Kamara until he emerged ON THE FIELD AS A STAR. Lost your bragging rights when you waited. You’ve bragged all it takes is one look at an athlete and you can tell if they’re a star or not. Shouldn’t have necessitated YEARS. 😎

Got a lot built up on putting Mixon on your list when he was always projected as a 1st or 2nd round pick…bet he’s good looking!

And you “bust”, Fournette is still playing and has one more 1000 yard season than Conner…who got his career FIRST in 2023. #Remarkable

James Conner is a 2-time Pro Bowler while Fournette has never made a Pro Bowl. Try again.

With regard to Hurd, I still think if Jalen had stayed healthy he would have been a superstar NFL player at either RB or WR. His problems were durability related and his own ego. Never talent.

When it comes to Alvin, I was not impressed by his tape in 2015. He looked a little pudgy that year compared to how streamlined and explosive he looked in 2016. Players change over time and can make leaps. Alvin took a leap in 2016 and I actually noticed it and was talking about it BEFORE his breakout game at A&M. Nonetheless I was the only person who had Alvin as the #1 RB in that draft ahead of Fournette and Cook. I also said Alvin's draft comp was Marshall Faulk. Nobody else was as high on Alvin's NFL potential as me. To regardless of how I viewed him in 2015. When it came time for the NFL draft I was the only person who was saying he was RB1.
 
You realize people can just look up 2017 pre-draft RB grades and immediately call you on your bull****, right?

Check your sources more closely genius. Those are obviously after the fact grades. Who the hell had Kareem Hunt as RB1 before the draft and Leonard Fournette as RB35? Even I didn't have 34 running backs rated ahead of Fournette. Fournette was drafted 4th overall while Kareem Hunt and Alvin went in the 3rd round.

The RB tiers were Fournette, Cook, and CMac at the top. Then it was Mixon and Alvin. Cook fell in the draft due to off-field issues but most had him and Fournette at the top.

300 yards and half as many 1000 yard seasons is your hallmark. Don’t need to “try”…just let you fail. 😅

If “could’ve” counted, a lot of poseur’s “expert” takes would be proven prescient…but they officially AIN’T. 😅

Once again your ORIGINAL “expert” analysis was WRONG on Kamara. Making your continuous dirty butt air coming out ya mouth about INSTANTLY knowing talent from HUDL film FALSE assertion. Scrambling after the facts proved you WRONG gets you no credit. You’re a schtick device. 😅

Now do Patrick Mahomes. 😅
