2 things:

If I were to sign up for PS+ right now, would I still be eligible to get the "free" games for the month?


2. Ugh. Because of my pending dick removal and also a vacation, between 6/14 and 7/4 I work a total of 4 days. I was looking for a game to buy to enjoy. Not a FPS guy because Im very bad them. So I was just looking through PS4 games on Amazon and saw "Romance of the 3 Kingdoms XIII". The first one on Nintendo is among my very favorite games ever. The later ones got a little weird, and the Dynasty Warriors stuff was just melee killing. But this looks a lot like the first. I got all excited to buy it only to discover its released on 7/5. Goddammit.

Yes on the PS Plus front. You are eligible for that month's free games as soon as you sign up.

I'm playing a franchise with the Wolves. Wiggins and Lavine are fast breaking fools.

The My Player mode is a great way to learn/practice one on one defense.

The Wolves look like the team to do a franchise with. Been trying the fantasy draft on mygm. Tons of fun but having trouble drafting a solid starting 5.

It's pretty fun. I redesigned their logo, court, and uniforms too. Didn't have to trade too many pieces either.

I downloaded NBA2K yesterday, I'll do a Celts franchise and get Durant on the team. It won't happen in real life so it's nice to be able to do it here.

There's a whole in-game update you'll have to do before you can be the Celts

Some big new from Bethesda at E3.

Skyrim is getting a remaster with support for mods on console. Coming 10-28.

Also looks like a bunch of new add ons and DLC coming for Fallout 4.

Here's what I've found helpful the last week:

Did the tutorial/free court modes.

Watched a tutorial on YouTube about the left and right stick controls with regard to dribbling, movement, and shooting.

Did more free court stuff.

Started MyCareer mode, which is great. Your character starts off in high school, and the competition is super easy. I have my first college game next, which I expect to be more difficult.

I like this game very much, but it's gonna take effort to be any good.

Me too. I had been considering another go at Skyrim, so this is timed perfectly. I wonder if i should go buy a copy of the legendary edition so i can get the free dl in October or just chance that it won't be terribly overpriced. I never bought the game originally, just borrowed it from a friend.

The new God of War and Horizon look really good.

Zelda footage will debut today too.

hahahaha So D'angelo Russell was bitching about Anthony Davis hogging the ball and told me to trade Davis or him. Easy call.

Traded Russell for Porzingis. Got a rowdy inside game now with Davis, Porzingis, and Noel.

I can't deal with these players bitching about practice. Kevin Love keeps complaining that practice isn't hard enough, and Avery Bradley keeps complaining that it's too intense. Every time I appease one, the other bitches.

"Zelda is more open world, less linear." :roll: We've heard this pitch before, Nintendo.
