The Wire Troll: Don’t be a Dumbo, Pick up Trumbo

The picture of Morales on the ground with his leg bent in the wrong direction is not a pretty one, folks, and this is a huge loss to the Angels as they try to keep pace with both the Rangers and Athletics in a suddenkly tough American League West Division. I’m not against celebrating, but let’s face it, this wasn’t Game Seven of the World Series and it’s just about time to cut this crap out of the game before someone else gets seriously hurt.

Video Game Review: Raystorm HD

The game offers two control setups: manual and auto. In manual your gun and laser are mapped to separate buttons, whereas in auto one button fires both of them. Both have a special attack that can be deployed. To do this you’ll need to fill a meter, which is done by locking onto and destroying your enemies with the laser. It’s the weapon you’ll use most often as it’s capable of hitting both aerial and ground targets, whereas the gun can only take down flying foes.

Things can get a bit tricky when you’re on horseback as well. Moving your horse in tight quarters is often clumsy, and I definitely grew tired of constantly hitting “A” to prod my horse and then holding the button down so the horse would maintain its speed. It’s primarily frustrating when engaging pursuing enemies. Rotate the camera so you can line up a shot and suddenly your horse is veering in the wrong direction. I generally slowed down to take on pursuers, but there are occasions where your time is limited and that isn’t possible.

Jonas Jerebko: Steal of the 2009 Draft?

The Swedish born power forward was inconsistent from a production standpoint, and his ceiling is likely limited, but he provided a great spark of energy and toughness for a listless Piston team and proved to be one of the true steals of the 2009 draft. I could see selecting Jerebko with a late-round flier, but don’t expect him to outperform his rookie effort by much, if any in 2010-11.
