Friday Night Lights: Season One

22 episodes. Most are pretty good.

Just finished up the first season, thanks to Netflix streaming on Xbox 360. Gotta say I was hooked on some days, I mean a LOT goes down. Spaced them out over a month or so.

Being a football fan, I was already drawn to the premise. But I think it has enough to catch a casual fan. If anything, my main problem was the filler side stories I had no interest in. (Tyra's mom, Smash's gf, and often they stretch out dialogue.)

But the football is good, as is the cast. I thought Landry (Jesse Plemons) was great in his smaller role. One character I did a 180 on was Lyla Garrity. She slowy got worse and worse towards the end.

I will be checking out next season on Netflix at a later date, though I have heard the quality drops.

Marvel vs Capcom 2

Finally. It should have came out a month ago. Well, years ago.

My first thoughts are-Wow, I suck. After months of playing SFIV, MvC2 does feel dated. The graphics are cleaned up, and I wouldnt call it bad looking at all. $15 is a big price to pay but that sure beats the super-high ebay prices.

The last time I played was way back in high school, in the Cougar Den Arcade. Playing at home isn't quite the same; they changed to a 4 button layout with some modifications for the regular 360 controller. But I already have a FightPad so I would have been fine with the traditional style.

It's more of a nostalgic pick up. A lot of crazy offense, and a TON of characters. Even Mega Man and Gambit.
