"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Hey guys, just picked up my copy of FNR2

The game seems to be harder than last years version. I havn't played the first one in quiet awhile so I was a little rusty. The game is somewhat more realstic with the addition of the EA cutman. (one of the coolest things ive seen EA do) You actually get to take control of the cutman and control the swelling and the cutting on your fighter. YOu only have 30 seconds so you have to be really quick about what you want to do.

The graphics look absolutly gorgous....even better than last years version. Then again I could be biased since im playin the game on my 36 inch wide screen HD tv! (cheap pop)

My biggest win so far came when I knocked out Joe Fraizer with Roy Jones Jr. It took me nine freakin rounds! but....I did it.


Anyone else got this game and if so do you like it?
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

I have it....

Its going to take some getting used to, thats for sure. I used to play the first online all the time.

I am having a hard time changing the controller configuration. Do you know how to do this? It lets me change it in the profile, but it never seems to take effect in the game, and I keep having to use the stupid analog stick to throw punches.

haha, you can't use the buttons anymore. Which I believe is great. Since all those button mashers just liked using the buttons.

You can use them though, if you go to My Corner and then Options, you can choose different controller configurations in the profiles. Fight Night 2004 also used the analog stick to throw punches, but you could change it in that. For some reason I can't figure out how to do it.

You must be able to somehow since I see the different configurations....

Mannn, I so wanna get this game. But in Australia it doesnt come out until another week. DAMN.

I have read all about it though, being able to punch on the move will be the best addition to it, that and being able to move weight divisions!
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Punching on the move is beautiful, especially with Ali....

Example: I was movin to the side and he started doin like his foot shufflin. It was sweet. I landed a right Jab, which caught my oppent off guard, then a left, then a right cross. The crowd went nuts. I know i'll sound like Ali when I say this but... It was so graceful and pretty. You can also knock a guy down with one hit.

Example: I was fighting Sonny Liston ( who I think is TOO hard in the game. The dude is like a tank! He was beatin the h*ll out of me. I parry one of his crosses and nail him right in the chin his arse falls like a tree. Of course he got up and TKO'd me in the next round but the knockdown allowed me ot win one round! :p

I wish I had XBOX live so I could play online..
