Video Game Review: UFC Undisputed 2010

I won’t even attempt to lay out the complexities of the combat system here. Just understand that button mashing is going to do nothing except get you knocked out or submitted in short order. There is an available tutorial that helps lay the groundwork, but the only way to become proficient here is by getting in the octagon and practicing. Log enough time and you’ll get comfortable, though even after more than a week with the game I wouldn’t say things are second nature.

Detroit Tigers Bullpen Report

The Detroit Tigers have lost a bit of ground in the AL Central recently, slipping 3.5 games behind division leading Minnesota. Fortunately, they remain five up on the third place White Sox, but with the Wild Card gap growing for Detroit, the team’s best chance to make the playoffs is looking more and more like it will have to come via a division crown.

The Wire Troll: Don’t Meddle on Medlen

The 24-year-old Arrieta is next in line to get the call. In 71 IP at Triple-A Norfolk, he’s posted a 6-2 record while allowing 45 hits and 34 walks and striking out 62. In an interesting bit of news, Arrieta pitched two innings in a relief role on Saturday. Is this a tune-up for a promotion to the Orioles this week? I think so, and those in AL-only and deeper formats should take the plunge and get him rostered for the upcoming period.

Video Games: Resurgence Pack DLC

Visually this map is a lot of fun with all the signature accoutrements of the stereotypical trailer park, including discarded beer cans and kegs, plastic flamingos and even a lawn gnome. It’s so authentic you can practically smell the bologna frying! However, despite the fun setting, the fighting here tends to be pretty straightforward in that you’ll either need to embrace moving methodically and checking corners or get killed a lot. That’s because with so many trailer interiors and random debris to conceal enemies this is a camper’s paradise. It’s not a bad map, but it’s the weakest of the new offerings.
