In July 2010, President Obama signed into law the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act ("Dodd-Frank Act"), which, among other things, granted to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC") comprehensive authority to regulate financial transactions involving commodities, including exchanged-traded futures and over-the-counter derivatives involving natural gas. The Act also gave the CFTC broad anti-market manipulation and anti-fraud authority over commodity option transactions in interstate commerce. The CFTC has issued rules implementing the provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act related to regulation of swaps. Key rulemakings have defined what transactions and market entities are subject to the greatest regulatory scrutiny – swap dealers, major swap participants, derivatives clearing organizations, futures commission merchants, swap execution facilities, and swap data repositories – and set out the reporting and recording keeping requirements for market participants.
AGA Viewpoint
AGA member companies provide natural gas service to retail customers under rates, terms and conditions that are regulated at the local level by a state commission or other regulatory authority with jurisdiction. They use financial tools to hedge the commercial risks associated with providing natural gas service to customers, such as commodity cost volatility. These tools include futures contracts traded on CFTC-regulated exchanges and over-the-counter energy derivatives. Under CFTC rules, AGA member companies are classified as non-financial entities, or "end-users" of futures and swaps.
AGA believes that the CFTC's rulemakings to implement the Dodd-Frank Act should ensure that the financial markets related to energy commodities function efficiently and protect the ability of commercial hedgers to engage in risk management activities at reasonable cost for the benefit of American energy consumers.
AGA members also participate in the physical natural gas market and contract for pipeline transportation, storage and asset management services in order to procure and deliver affordable, reliable natural gas to their customers. AGA has actively called for reasonable regulatory outcomes that do not treat member companies' non-financial natural gas contracting practices as financial "swap" activity. As the CFTC moves to implement its final rules and policies, AGA continues to monitor where AGA member companies face ongoing compliance challenges and develop advocacy programs to address these issues.

In other news, it looks like CNBC's Joe Kernen felt the heat of the CrackBerry Nation on Twitter over the weekend. In case you missed it, Kernan chimed in at the end of a CNBC interview with RIM CEO Thorsten Heins. He didn't tread too tactfully however as he had this to say to Heins:
"You're at RIM and you're in Waterloo and you don't even care. Because even though you're in Waterloo, that doesn't even occur to you that this isn't going to work ... with the BlackBerry 10".
Well, not to be embarassed by a CNBC host, Kevin took to ther Twitter airwaves to rally the troops to let Mr. Kernen know that he was pretty disrespectful to Thorsten during the interview. Apparently Kernen wasn't too keen on the overwhelming response of the CrackBerry nation on Twitter.
Kernen has this to say on air:
"I'm going back to an iPhone now because the CrackBerry people were so rude and nasty".
Rude and nasty? I'm pretty sure that saying an unreleased product will fail is pretty rude as well. Just to be clear - we have no issue with Joe Kernen or his BlackBerry use, just the fact that he was extemely rude and tactless when closing out the interview with Thorsten Heins. We're not sure where it all came from, but we'll certainly be smiling when RIM and Thorsten Heins prove him wrong with BlackBerry 10.
Shoutout to Nikedas for the video!
If you watch the original video you will understand that he was actually complementing Thorsten and RIM for not listening to critics and and doing their own thing. At the end he even says to Thorsten: "You're brave, first time you were here the stock was trading at 7$ and now its trading at 14$. Thank you."
I think this whole thing was a big misunderstanding and that both Keenan and the Crackberry Nation should apologize.
How is "You're all in Waterloo Shacking it up, and don't care" Sound like a compliment along with "Everyone in Waterloo is clueless"?
I agree with koolrosh on this one. I think he was talking very quickly and meant something supportive. If you listen to the tone of his voice and how he calls Thor 'Brave" (and not in a condescending way at all) it appears that he was taken a back by our unshakable Thor.
It almost appears like he meant something like. "Thor, all this talk about the possibility of BB10 failing by your critics must seem so ridiculous to you....those thoughts don't even appear to occur to you, Bravo, march on."
Here's what he really said with what I think he was getting at in my [brackets]
"You're at RIM and you're in Waterloo and you don't even care [what the critics say]. Because even though you're in Waterloo, that doesn't even occur to you that this isn't going to work with the BlackBerry 10 [according to your critics]. You're brave [the tone of my voice suggest that I sympathize with how burned you feel by skittish analysts after nailing this last quarter so decisively], first time you were here the stock was trading at 7$ and now its trading at 14$ [so you are obviously doing a great job for investors]. Thank you".
I also see where the furor comes from and do not blame Kevin for nailing Joe Kernan to the wall for this. But I think it quite possible Joe actually meant well and was maybe was almost a bit emotional (in a good way). I know I was, I mean here is this guy Thor, who has been through hell and back this year and knew how important this quarter needed to be; and he nailed it. He nailed it, and yet got demolished on the services thing (which it is his legal duty to disclose any material changes to RIM's business model) So he had no choice on that. Could he have waited, maybe.
Even though Thor was unshakable, you could tell he was frustrated, and he should be. RIM grew their cash pile by $600 million and thus silenced those who said they didn't have the money to launch BB10. The increase in cash meant a small loss of subcribers, but I don't see Microsoft with a 79 million user base to build on, especially with sticky services like BBM to help with the transition. They finished thier cost cutting program one quarter early, I mean come on. Thor did great, and yet.... I felt for him, I really did. I believe that Joe did too.
In the second video it is obvious that Joe felt bad about it. If he meant to hurt the Crackberry nation he would not have been so cranky, but I think he was wounded. RIM needs every bridge it can get, especially with the media. I think we need to give Joe another chance.
see my longer comment below.
^ Complete ridiculous!
SHow me the original video where "You're all in Waterloo Shacking it up, and don't care" is NEGATIVE! Your quote doesn't even end in a sentence (no period used) so we should take its use OUT OF CONTEXT!!
IF the video posted by Crackberry just a few days ago is NOT the full video then I think whomever "Rallied Up the Troops" is a fucking moron!
Who's troops are you referring to?! The crackberry nation? BlackBerry users?! Are you some sort of general or an over crazed fan-boy who ended up with wild ideas that grew connections to RIM?! Seriously its becoming a little childish.
What IN FULL was very negative by the reporters?
- Because they asked the TOUGH questions? Questions that nobody else asked? Questions that SHOULD've been asked by more reputable stock show hosts?! If you've ever read The Art of War you'd realize these tough questions where needed and shown Thor's mettle.
All these childish posts are not only baseless without full proof in full context, its lowering the value of participating on this site! Its lowering the intelligence of a few that can discern the difference between inference and conjecture.
Sorry had to curse there ... just getting fed up of all this blind faith in RIM to attack anyone with opinions. Apologies to those affended by cursing, and to those under age reading my last post seeing the cursing. Apologies mods.
EVEN if someone has a non favorable opinion of RIM let them voice their concerns. Take a pill and let RIM do their business! When they come out on top and rising sales beating ALL analysts - THEN we can quote them and have them literally EAT THEIR WORDS!!!
This definitely struck a nerve with you, but I agree. Brand loyalty is great, but it's gotten to a point where if anyone says anything remotely critical, they're attacked by a swarm of evangelists. It's not just with CrackBerry Nation--fans of all platforms react in this knee-jerk fashion.
While it didn't come across so eloquently, Joe was basically saying, "You're either brilliant or you're in denial, but either way, your resolve is admirable, and we thank you for trying to turn RIM around."
Back to the issue, though, the services revenue issue is not trivial and was handled poorly. I don't doubt that RIM has a game plan and that MDM can be a high-growth market, potentially offsetting or even exceeding existing services revenue streams. But, someone another article comment said it well: Thor attempts to address something controversial and then RIM has to follow up and clarify his comments. I like Thor and appreciate his unapologetic and less-staged style. But, he's got to get better at this. When you're not doing well or there is a high degree of uncertainty around your company, everything will be scrutinized. That's just the way it is.
Joe was clearly trying to be witty. As in making a pun between Waterloo the town and Waterloo the famous battle between Napoleon and the Duke of Wellington. I.e. You're in Waterloo against extreme odds, and you don't even think about failure.
If Joe is guilty of anything, it's being far more literate than the people commenting on Twitter.
PS: I'm all for liking BlackBerry and all, but at the end of the day it's just a phone. There is no need to cyberbully over it.
I'm inclined to agree. I'm not totally sure where all the indignation was coming from.
The worst interpretation you could draw from Kernan's comments was that he was accusing Heins of a bunker mentality, but it's not hard to infer that he meant it as a compliment. I suspect that's what he really meant.
Frankly, I have quite a bit of respect for Joe Kernan, and I'm sure he meant no ill will. If anything, I think he was expressing admiration for Heins' steady demeanor.
I think you're right. This was a beat up from Crackberry. If you listen properly you'll hear that he was being complimentary to Thorsten.
I agree with koolrosh 100%.
I just watched the video and on my first view it really did sound like Joe Kernan was insulting Thorsten.
However when I watched the video a second time I realized Joe was actually complimenting Thorsten for being brave and that Thorsten is doing well because the rim stock has doubled from $7 to 14.
I agree Crackberry Kevin should apologize for the tweet calling for Joe Kernan to be fired. Everyone makes mistakes and I think this one is on Crackberry Kevin.
LoL - he was so uncomfortable!
He looks so butthurt.
He's arrogant and egotistical, sounds like an iSheep to me!
Duh, now here's your sign.
We don't want to be a part of our nation anyway. He's a sheep just like the rest!
Hmm....Wonder if this guy has ever worked for "FOX"? Sure sounds like it in regards to his disregard for the facts among other things......
lmao. How did I not make that correlation?? Jolly good 'ol chap!
Never heard or seen this guy on TV before (then again don't watch CNBC really) but between his comments after the TH interview and this video this man is plain ignorant especially for a host on a station watched by millions I assume.
He may be a BlackBerry user but definitely doesn't sound like a supporter, which he has every right to, but try to show some professional journalism courtesy at least.
CrackBerry Nation!
Who cares what that deadbeat ...., useless piece of poop has to say, Joe Kernan is a joke. Time for him to move on, they can't build back their credibility with clowns like him around. His kid should be ashamed to know him. What a bum.
First - if you listen to the full clip, he seems to be trying to compliment - kind of like "hey, failure isn't even an option for you, and look at the turnaround you've already done - good job".
That aside - seriously? "Crackberry Nation" thinks the way to fix this (even if the interpretation is correct) is by insulting him?
Way to represent yourselves people. Well done.
You're blaming CB?? I don't care what he meant to say.. he's a professional and should have his act together.. and even if he didn't.. he should have come back on the air, corrected himself and apologize to Thorsten and RIM. Please post a link to his apology. CNBC let me down as viewer having this guy ramble on and knowing that no apology was given even after CB's response; this shows me that he meant what he said and has no remorse for it. I hope he goes to another phone brand.. BB10 would be too smart a phone for him to use anyways.
So just for the record, My blackberry has many apps that I can get mobile discounts through! If not an app, through its Mobile Website. Yes on the BB Browser! Any site that has created a mobile version displays beautifully and completely functional on the Bold Browser. Clearly this guy knows absolutely nothing about smartphones. He Really is a D-Bag. (Double Bag! LOL)
I actually feel kind of bad since we've seen much harsher criticism. I re watched the original video and it just sounded bad when he said that you pretty much don't think that its not going to work. Actually all he really said was Thorsten you are a very positive and brave leader and thank you for being at RIM. I seriously think that we the CrackBerry Nation should give an apology. What do you guys think(Kevin, Adam and Bla1ze)?
Whatever compliment he was trying to give Thorsten was absolutely lost in the way he closed out at that interview. Look, it probably wasn't Joe's intent to go out there and insult Heins - that would be foolish of any host/interviewer, but that's how it came across, to both Heins and to the audience. It was ignorant, and in the end with the words he chose he belittled Heins and RIM's efforts on launching BlackBerry 10.
And the fact that Joe could slip up with his words and context that bad, especially if he didn't mean to, well that just proves he's not fit for his job. In that role you need to think before you speak, which he obviously did not do.
Look, to me it's already old news and I moved on. We wouldn't have posted anything on this if he didn't bring up CrackBerry on air. This posted and out of the way, it's a dead issue to me now. But apologize? Nah... if he wants to though, he probably could and should shoot Thorsten an email. People make mistakes and that's fine, as long as they own up to them - Thorsten is the one he should apologize to, nobody else. But if Joe doesn't think he made a mistake there, well then a little heat from CrackBerry Nation making him realize he screwed up isn't such a bad thing. People call me out on my mistakes when I make them... which happens... and I don't mind it - keeps me sharp and on my game.
Kevin, I agree the CrackBerry nation should not apologize. Whether he meant it or not, Joe screwed up and if he didn't mean it than he should let Thor know. Bravo for sticking up for Thor, he deserves our support.
Totally agree. He's a journalist, not politician. Whatever happened, if he can't control what he say and then made excuses, he should be in politic. When he said he want to change to iphone because he got some "tough love", sounds like a kid crying from being told to behave.
CNBC, are you sure you can control your newsreader mouth while on the air?
Clearly Joe was belittling Heins and the BlackBerry fanbase, and it was his absolute intention. CNBC has always had a negative view of BlackBerry, and they're, especially Joe, are Steve Job nuthuggers. Look, for example, at the contest. Not once did they bring any analyst with anything slightly or remotely positive to say about BlackBerry. If it was an honest mistake, he would have aplogized and called it a day. no sir, he had to fuel the fire by calling CB nation 'nasty and rude' and say he's going to use iphone. Joe deserves what he got if not more. what a loser.
Wow, I just did all the backtracking on this thread.. and this guys a real douche. Wow how unprofessional! It was good that Thorsten didn't go after him .. he looked reserved and professional. I've never really seen an on-line broadcaster be so obnoxious and demeaning to a guest before - aren't they suppose to ask questions and get the response from the source instead of making crap up? He's lucky that's all he got from Crackberry. I think even his fellow broadcaster didn't know what to do with him and his response to Crackberry Nation especially since all his fellow broadcasters use BB's. What a knob! CNBC should really show him the door.
We called him out and I hate how much he tries to act like a victim knowing damn well he's a perpetrator!
The fact that anyone says a product that has not released yet will fail only proves they are threatened by it
we should all continue to put this a-hole down until he apoligizes on air in front of his friends to thosten and rim...make him feel really low...and when bb10 comes out and kicks ass,he shall swallow his i-phone!!!
this guy has a blackberry and does not know that it has apps? must be hard to see when you have your head up your ass.
Who is this guy? Based on what I've seen and read, he's not worth any more of CB's attention. Let the pundits blow hot air - BB10 will rock it! :-)
As a always happy member of CrackBerry forums, I have to say CrackBerry's response is in the wrong here, but that is my opinion I do not wish to start a finger pointing game like some have, merely give my own opinion. I'm glad this is filed under "CrackBerry - Humor" because I cannot believe anyone really takes offense to any of this. I generally have the entire CNBC programming block from 0800 - 1200 EST on everyday on at least one television in my office, when I am not lecturing my Economics classes, and I even watched the entire relevant portions of this part again for a second time to make sure I was not missing anything. For anyone, and it sounds like a few individuals here, who watched the entire things [which is not available on this propaganda cut like clip here], there were far more positive comments directed towards RIM, its CEO, and BB10 in general. Joe and the morning team there on the 0800 broadcast prior to Squawk on the Street, and most of the anchors and journalists on Squawk are some of the better journalists around. If anyone wants to talk about respect [which I do not think this is really about], the author of this original front page article did no courtesy to spell Joe Kernen's name correctly. At the end of the day it is humor, and I take it as that, surely making a front page issue of it on the website, and twisting reality ever so slightly to make things generate a bit more drama than usual in my opinion is not what I've known CrackBerry to be about... Sad face ---> :-(
Re: Typo - Adam is fixing that
Re: In general - see my comment above.
My apologies Kevin I should have addressed your comments in the post above to be superbly thought out and reasoned [as always]. I always appreciate your approach to situations such as these, and generally find your comments and work to be insight full as well as interesting being focused on such a nice area within technology.
I know I've seen you speak a few times on CNBC on behalf of the CB Nation, and quite eloquently you speak I should mention. Thank you for taking the time to review my comment, I look forward to the future of the BlackBerry experience, which at the end of the day is what I hope we all look forward to when it comes to our personal mobile devices.
Kevin, as always, my best to you and the entire Mobile Nations team for giving us a community on the WWW for communicating ideas!
Yeah, I think Kevin and CB misunderstood his comments, they didn't seem insulting at all, just poorly worded. No need to apologize, but perhaps not be so defensive and come off looking like fans of another fruit phone company...?
He's an old guy who doesn't understand tech. Send him a free BB10 and get some good press out of it RIM!
See my longer comment reply above for my thoughts...
That said... I wouldn't say I misunderstood anything. You kinda just proved our point though... why is an "old guy" who doesn't understand tech who can't choose his words even on tv talking about this stuff?
Look - I'm a lover, not a hater, but my new year's resolution for 2013 is to not let people get away with stupidity as far it concerns RIM or BlackBerry 10 - especially people in mainstream media where their reach is big and the masses seem to believe what they say as the truth, when all too often it's far from it. This launch is too important for us to do anything less than our best effort to keep the messaging out there honest and accurate.
I agree with what you're saying Kevin, I just don't like it when fans of any phone/car/sports team come off as tooooo strident. I know you're not responsible for what people posted to him on Twitter, so I'm not saying CB has anything to do with that, which is what he complained about.
The reason he's talking about it is presumably he has knowledge in another area (finance/stocks not tech), and it was kind of a round table type interview, like Morning Joe (which is a good show because they talk about things they actually understand...which is your point I know :) ).
Anyway, not a big deal as you say, you should definitely keep the people spreading misinformation about RIM honest, but I still say RIM should send him a free BB10 keyboard version, cheap advertising, I'm sure he'll love it and spread the word!
Okay, Kevin, I take umbrage at the term "old guy": I'm 65 and have been involved in tech as a sideline before u pups were born! If it weren't for what we old guys started, y'all would still be using cans and a string! So I think- outside of this thread- it is us old guys to whom you should show some respect and apologize. You're too professional for that kind of tone.
I never personally used the term "old guy" - was using the term used by the commenter I replied to. I'll edit my comment to include some quotes for clarity. I assumed that was clear if you read the original post and my reply.
As for age... it doesn't matter to me... as long as you have a brain and use it. Young or old, if you're smart and know what you're talking about...you're A OK in my book. And the opposite is also true.
Thanks K for the quotes: you do understand it makes one heck of a difference. One of the problems with the speed of hitting the send button is one forgets to read the txt out loud first: without a voice or specific notation, there can sometimes be misunderstanding. As I said, you're always professional, and seeming to echo someone's dismissive language wasn't like you. I accept the "apology" :-)
P.s. Read this Site second every morning. Peace and happy holidays from a proud geezer

Go crackberry nation!
This whole episode is utterly childish, both Kevin's obvious misunderstanding and overreaction to the original interview (which I watched); as well as Joe's whining, spiteful response.
CB does BB10 no favors with this nonsense, and I'm sure Thor would agree. In fact, I would not be surprised if RIM sent a private note to CNBC disclaiming any connection with CB's immature behavior.
One of the worst feedbacks and misunderstandings of this thread. Your high horse is galloping for the gates.
As a member of crackberry nation I too believe in BB10 and RIM delivering a great product to market soon!
While I share your enthusiasm about BB10 and am glad to show and explain why BB10 is better to anyone who will listen to me and enjoy seeing you defend bad information
I totally disagree with your reaction here and think that CB should send him a phone and apologize this would be best for all including RIM
If this approach continues I will reluctantly close my CB account and support BB10 in other ways
Let's show some class and be more professional than calling for him to be fired
Merry Christmas and Happy holidays
So... You want to reward and thus promote bad behaviour. I think Santa would disapprove. Sorry. Nothing but a lump of coal in that guy's stockings.
Well said. I listen to CNBC almost every day on XM during my commute to work and I just watched interview. Joe was thanking Thor for his decision to stick to his guns on BB10 and for the so-far good execution that has caused the stock to rally (it is a channel dedicated to finance after all!) There was no need to beat the guy up on this site or on Twitter.
I never understand why people get so passionate about phones.
Joe should not have said what he said but why anyone would choose a phone based on what "crackberry people said on Twitter" is crazy.
I am always happy to tell people why I still use a Blackberry and why BB10 will rock but I really don't care what they buy - it's just a phone.
I thought he was going to apologize for what he said.
The reality is, CNBC are Apple Shills and perhaps there is no bigger shill than Jim Cramer. These guys constantly pump Apple stock and praise everything Apple does.
They blasted the playbook because it was too small yet praised the iPad mini for appealing to those that wanted a smaller tablet without noting Playbook had already been on the market.
I have friends who regret going to the iPhone 5 from the Bold 9900 and are now waiting for BB10.
CNBC is paid to pump apple. I can see no other reason for them constantly pumping Apple products while dumping on everyone else while failing to mention that most Apple releases pump features that other phones have already had for a year.
Apple no longer leads. Their new releases are cosmetic and add a feature or two that other devices already have. BB10 is not simply a cosmetic makeover. It is an evolution of a platform. It will be revolutionary.
Screw CNBC and their shills. Blackkberry people know that this device is going to rock. What the people at RIM need to do is take a page out of Samsung and Apple and MARKET their new device to succeed. People need to see what the new BB10 can do that other devices can't. There has never been a time when RIM needs to spend so much to market a device if they are going to convert the brainwashed Apple zombies who will buy a white trash bag full of food scraps if it carries an Apple logo.
I like your post. If people think msnbc drinks Apple cool-aide then they should see how cnnMoney bathes in the Apple cool-aide.
I've been watching Squawk Box for at least 10 years and know Joe well. His comment on Thorsten was an absolute slam and ..... who says that to the the face of the hardest working CEO on the planet. Joe doesn't know anything about tech and was probably just repeating garbage he heard at a NY cocktail party. I expect he will apologize if one of his aids fills him in on what's really been going on.
Cant believe there are morons on here calling Kevin out on answering back in the way he did. I guess we should all have been like sheep and allowed an obvious slam to go unchecked? At least now this bloke and all and sundry who pays attention knows that the CB Nation packs a hell of a knock you flat on your ass punch......who dont like it-bite it....
In the age of internet and anonimity where everyone can hide behind any name and say anything to satisfy their needs, that joe should know better on tv, you have to be careful with what you gonna say.he's on tv, not on the internet. You are responsible for what you say on tv.
Then again,to anyone who thinks the CB/mobile nation's reactions are too much, or you think any of us shouldn't do/say that and have to apologise, you need to remember what people did and still doing that hurt RIM/blackberry. You should read what the ignorant robots&sheeps&analysts&media says about anything related to blackberry. And for any of you that suggest we who use blackberry should just shut up for whatever reasons you say, then I say, you are worse than those robots&sheeps&analysts&media. Shame on you.
Rather than telling us to not giving reactions, it's better if you all go outside CB/mobile nation and correct whatever those robots&sheeps&analyst&media do&say. We here are not the one damaging RIM/blackberry. But there are a lot of people out there does that. Go out there,talk to them, win their heart. For us here, RIM/blackberry already got our heart, we don't damage what we love. People out there does. Go out, say what you say to us here to them. The one who damage RIM&blackberry is not us, but those ignorant robots/sheeps/analysts/media. Talk to them,not us.
He owns a Blackberry, as does one of his co-anchors according to the clip, but knows nothing about phones. He should be sold on the merits of BB10, not attacked for lack of knowledge of phones and a poorly worded but not attacking sentence about RIM. Tempest in a teapot at the end of a day in any case.
Irresponsible use of the airwaves, sometimes media people forget that they're talking to millions of people and many times they let their personal opinion, often based on word of mouth and not facts cloud their judgement.
Clearly in North America, RIM must deploy massive experiential marketing strategies, word of mouth has pretty much killed the BlackBerry brand, rightfully so though, you have sales people in stores like best buy who have never even touched a BlackBerry PlayBook telling you not to buy one because its rubbish and BlackBerry is going bankrupt, and yes it happened to me and many others.
This guy is just like millions of other people who have just heard that RIM is dead or dying, never experienced BB10, but millions believe RIM is dead because that was what they heard. I was over at engadget the other day, the level of ignorance turned to facts in the minds of so many people about RIM and the BlackBerry brand is outstanding!
Urgh!! Another nameless so call "journalist" name embedded in my brain. I didn't even bother watching the clip. All these talking heads need to go back to school for journalism. Who am I kidding! This is US. If they allow Faux News to exist, anything goes! It's not about reporting news, it's how loud you can scream towards the microphone. Fact is irrelevant! Only opinions matters no matter how ridiculous it seems.
The main point to take from this is that yet another user has been driven away from BlackBerry by 'Team CrackBerry'
This site does a great job of turning people off BlackBerries, either through denial of the need for new features, random insults against users, biased modding, the list goes on.
Behaving like children is not the image RIM would want associated with their brand. Nor is the lack of humour.
The only good thing that will come from this is RIM can see that associating itself with CrackBerry would be a huge PR disaster so we wont see CrackBerry bloatware on BB10.
Sad to see a great company trying to get back in the game, being handicapped by these shenanigans by users not typical of their fan base.
SMH at Kevin's stated views as well, just sad. Sharp, on your game? Think before you speak? Riiiiight. No mirrors in CrackBerry headquarters obviously.
The main point you should have taken away is that when people shit on a brand others are loyal to, they should expect some sort of retort. If you don't understand this, you don't understand CB faithful ... And just so you get a full grasp, CB faithful doesn't just mean people from this Crackberry site.
At no point did anyone at RIM or CB ever state the two are affiliated with each other. But to say it would be a PR disaster blah blah blah is just plain rubbish.
When you make a mistake and you're called on it, tell us what happens.
Everyone is loyal to something or the other. To 'retort' like children reflects badly on communities. Calling this dude on what he said is fine. Provided people take into account the entirety of what he said, not just selected bits.
Equally, commenting on his hair etc etc is just plain stupid and abusing someone for their opinion, even if it isnt the same as yours, is silly.
Bottom line is, dude says hes switching platforms because of abuse from 'CrackBerry faithful'. Thats a loss for RIM and another mark for CB, particularly given the childish way theyve handled this.
Yet another user has driven away from BlackBerry by 'Team Crack Berry'? Directly or indirectly, RIM like all companies have many associations with many entities. I'm doubt there's any legal association between CrackBerry.com and RIM. What company would deny a fan base website helping to spread some businesses along the way? Until CrackBerry committed a faux pas that would affect the reputation of RIM, why should it be your opinion that RIM should disassociate with this site? A huge PR disaster eh. Hyperbole much? Behaving like children? You are right when it comes to Think Before You Speak and having a mirror. Read what you wrote and actually think about it! Speaking of maturity, you would not buy BlackBerry products because of CrackBerry.com? Now that's a valid reason. Shouldn't you post that at BlackBerry forum? You know a company that wanted your business.
I agree completely Bambinoitaliano
Another user driven from BB10 this is not good and CNBC is a huge RIM customer this is not the way to win the battles
Perhaps think of Mr. Heins as our Duke of Wellington he won the battle of Waterloo!
How do I delete my CB account would prefer to promote BB10 in a more positive manner
Yeah you've made your point. That we should let people badmouthed blackberry and give him a free bb10. That we are extrimist fanboys. That we are at fault, making thatjournalist said he turned to iphone because he got some "though love" from us. Now move along,no need to dramatizing it by asking how to delete your name. You can just leave like u said you are now. But for all I know you can always come back with different names though, lol.
Oh btw, I think you should re-read what bambinoitaliano wrote ;p
Sorry should have said agree with bobauckland thanks ferre_kun !
My point is that we should pick our battles and this was not 1 of them Mr Heins delivered an excellent interview clearing up some tough questions and that message was needed in the market much more than nailing the Joe guy to the cross
Merry Christmas!
Think it was a missunderstanding. I also think it doesn't matter who's right and who's wrong, Even if the comment was meant to be disrespectful we should share our thoughs respectfully because in the end we are still simply mortals and want to generate peace for ourselves and others, we should respect our differences.
Real men and women make mistakes and own up to those mistakes. You can make the greatest speech but one or two lines can throw off the whole thing.
I don't think the backlash would have been so harsh had Joe Kernen cleared things up asap. He further sunk himself with CB faithful by going on air after and making other unfortunate remarks.
This person is supposed to be a journalist, but this person clearly did not do his homework to a higher standard. When we make mistakes we should expect a reaction.
ok 1 last post on this topic !
Yes Kevin should man up and say he made a mistake, send an apology to CNBC, I have shown the video to family and friends and in no way are they offended from it ! In what universe when a man says God Bless you for all your work can it be construed as an insult ???
I am a proud Canadian, BlackBerry supporter, and have sent friends to crackberry.com to buy products, for help and information on using BlackBerries expecting a good level of quality information and enthusiasm for BB10.
I have worked the past 25 years in the high tech industry with some of the best executives around and this spat with CNBC was silly and embarrassing to me as a loyal BlackBerry user !
Much like when a news reporter or analyst does not get things right, it is good for us to stand up and explain things in a mature manner, we should also stand up and explain things when the same is true for a BlackBerry user, fair is fair !
A more business like response would have been a blog on how great Mr. Heins handled the interview, some tough questions the market needed to get cleared up such as 1) fees are not going away, 2) BB10 will bring new and innovative services, 3) BB10 phones will ship in VOLUME in Q4 Globally, 4) QWERTY phone will be out 2 weeks from Full Touch launch !...
These are significant to the long term health of RIM !
Hope everyone had a great dinner and got lots of presents !
Next present will be January 30, BB10 launch !
I've seen this Joe guy in action. He is spreading lies to the public for his own personal gain. He should be put in jail.
By the way. He disrespected Thor, and the company he represents. That was not very nice for him to do. Are we not trying to rid bullies once and for all?
Kevin is our leader, and we will follow Kevin in the direction that he points us to. He is here to make the world a better place.
Thanks jimcmf
So in those cases something should be said I have sent messages to CNBC to help correct mistakes too but to call for someone to be fired is childish
Sorry but Kevin is not my leader have worked with the best of them and they promote positive teamwork over a bashing party for something that does not deserve it
I don't think Kevin knows what true leadership is perhaps he will learn it hopefully he learns something from Mr.Heins
I come here for information on BlackBerry
It looks like he will bash blackberry at every chance. Just watched a new CNBC video and he is clearly hurt by some of the twitter comments about him - he's seems to think that the comments come from Blackberry and not just fans of the phone or those trying to educate this very angry man. Maybe Blackberry Thor should take him aside and try to straighten him out - kidd glove style. Some of the cnbc viewers may not know how jaded this guy is and actually place value on his words.

What do you do when there's no space inside your house for a home theater? Look outside. Pining for a place where the whole family could hang out, the owners of this prize-winning pad turned their three-car garage into an 850-square-foot home theater.
Getting the area into shape would test the design skills of the crew at Pompton Plains, N.J.-based 1 Sound Choice, as they first had to level the concrete floor, add insulation to the walls, replace the three garage doors with Anderson sliders, and install a heater.
New electrical wiring, outlets and lighting were also added, and soundproof walls were built around an existing central vacuum receptacle to hide the beast and prevent noise from interfering with the movie presentation. "There was a lot more to do than I expected to get the area ready," recalls company president Ryan Herd.
Despite being an unconventional choice as a home theater, the space had some very good elements going for it. Due to its large size, 1 Sound Choice was able to stagger the floor to create three distinct levels. On the upper platform the family placed a table for playing board games and cards. The next level encompasses a seating area, followed by the lower platform where a 119-inch Screen Innovations display stands front and center.
As an added bonus, the ceiling and many of the existing walls consisted of fire-rated double Sheetrock. "This type of construction provided us with huge acoustic benefits by preventing sound from the theater from seeping into the house," Herd explains. With a large portion of the garage already soundproofed, 1 Sound Choice custom-designed acoustical paneling for the interior walls. Covered in a dark blue fabric chosen by the homeowners and trimmed in gold, the treatments add visual impact to the space while enhancing the audio reproduction of the room's beefy Denon 7.4 surround-sound system.
Providing well-balanced, even audio coverage is always a concern in large rooms, so 1 Sound Choice packed in nine Boston Acoustic speakers and four Boston Acoustic subwoofers, all of which are either built into the walls or ceiling. A ceiling-mounted Sony 1080p projector handles the video end of the experience, transmitting images from a DVD player or satellite receiver that resides inside a specially constructed closet. The homeowners can fire up the entire system, plus control the lights, from a handheld Control4 remote. With so much technology in one spot, you'd never guess this room was once used as a place to park the family sedan.

Oct 31, 2012Awesome awesome arcade-racer!!!! What is it with reviewers thinking this is supposed to be driving round a track for hour after hour, tweaking the car little by little then going back round a track until you fall asleep at the controls???? Go get GT or some other soul-draining sim-racer. Game is awesome and HUGE FUN!!!!!
Oct 30, 2012thank you criterion very good game everything in the right way i love this game it is one of the most amazing race games ever made really good work ..
Oct 30, 2012need for speed most wanted - A Criterion Game my best car game till this moment graphics action and every thing you need you will find it in this game like hot pursuit
Oct 30, 2012Best racing game Atm if u like racing games get it right now !
Oct 30, 2012This game dominates the racing world right now! EA and Criterion have created the ultimate race - gaming experience possible! Need for Speed: Most Wanted 2012 is like Burnout but with official cars. Very fun and interesting to play.
Oct 30, 2012If you want the paramount in arcade racing look no further than NFS:MW. I won't go too far into the mechanics or story, I'll just tell you how I feel about Most Wanted. This isn't a Black Box game so don't expect anything similar to the 2005 title of the same name, Criterion has been on an whole notha level since the first Burnout. When it comes to making you feel like a stunt driver, there is no equivalent Some may say the new feel is "heavy" or unrealistic and call that a bad thing. These people haven't played this type of game. Burnout is about drifting, extreme speed and vehicle destruction. Don't write a review if all you wanted was Fortza or GT, you bought the wrong game too bad. This is about action-racing, the non-boring kind of racing. You aren't circling a track for 45 minutes. You're weaving the streets of a busy city, trying your best to dodge traffic, make secrets and destroy other players. The multiplayer is of a different caliber than you have ever experience, sans Hot Pursuit players. The difference is in the spontaneity of it all. The fused mechanics of Hot Pursuit's feel and Paradise's openness make for a multiplayer experience that is almost seamless with the singleplayer. This is possibly one of the most revolutionary efforts ever made in that respect. A game that lets you have true freedom. This is where all games are headed I expect. A 10/10 if I ever gave one. Note: I feel sorry for anyone who is even the least bit swayed in their purchase by the negative reviews being written. Go back to racing sims you pack of idiots. Fortza and GT aren't even games by definition. They're simulators. I get that some want to drive a car exactly like being in a real race, but I myself want to see cars flipping and crashing, going off cliffs and hitting pedestrians, to be able to drift at 200 mhp and hit the turbo. But that's just me. **** ten.… Expand
Oct 30, 2012It's best open-world racing game. But you must know, that it is not Most Wanted. It's Burnout Paradise 2 with license cars. But it's pretty good!!!!
Oct 30, 2012I was iffy about buying this I love burnout but I was definitely in the mood for some real NFS racing game. After about an hour of playing I gotta say this game kicks ass! best way to describe it would be the handling of NFS underground with the open world of burnout paradise. It's not burnout it is NFS
Oct 31, 2012All of you people who are rating this game as a zero or extremely low, go back to Forza and Xbox. You obviously have an economic agenda and no credibility. NFS MW is the best racing experience since Burnout Paradise. The racing is fun, intense, and the world is second to none. A must buy for anyone remotely interested in an adrenaline filled speed fest.
Oct 31, 2012When I started the game, I really didn't like the way the cars handled and thought it would be a big disappointment. As I've continued, now with 4 hours into the game, I'm getting really comfortable with the handling and the physics and I realize how the car customization changes the ways the cars feel on the road and perform.
I really didn't want another NFS: the Run or Hot Pursuit. I wanted another Burnout Paradise, and so far the game has absolutely delivered. I'm having a blast and the races and pursuits are breathtaking. If you're worried about the handling, level up your car or get a better vehicle. The physics will become more comfortable.
This game is not a sim (than goodness!). It's a wild arcade racer with very life-like physics but enough of a break from reality to make it exhilarating fun.
I'm really glad this game came along right now. I'm so tired of third person shooters and games that don't deliver the goods. This one delivers the goods. I would like to have seen some more detailed control adjustment, like sensitivity. The Autolog system is quite unique and effective. I enjoyed hundreds of hours of Burnout Paradise play. If Need for Speed: Most Wanted gets me half that much, it will have been well worth every penny. It is my opinion that I'll be enjoying this game a lot in the coming months.… Expand
Nov 4, 2012I have signed up to metacritic because i cannot believe the stupid scores i have seen on here by what must be complete and utter fools, it really annoys me that people try and review a game that they could not have played or spent about 2 minutes with and then made a judgement and a bad one at that.
Most wanted is an absolute storming racer and if you actually bother to play it properly and add the mods to your cars it opens up into astonishingly well crafted arcade racer, so what if it does not have manual gears, it is an arcade racing game, not formula 1 or gran turismo, what it provides is a fantastic looking, superb sounding and incredibly playable game and that is what an arcade racer should be all about, it is a mix of need for speed and burnout but criterion have streamlined the interface so everything is neat and fast to get to, once you have found something you can fast travel there instantly instead of driving around aimlessly, something even some so called professional review sites did not even pick up on this fast travel feature so how can they put out reviews that say ( oh you have to keep driving miles to events ) when this is simply not true. So to round up, my view of most wanted is, a superbly well crafted game that has an excellent single player mode with so much to do and see and the online mode has even more fun and challenges than just about any other racer out there, just go out and buy it and play it properly for a few hours and by then you will be hooked by this astonishing game. I do not work for any game company and i think criterion have made a quite simply genius game here and if you play games to have real fun then go get this, please do not listen to the idiots that gave this game all the stupid low scores. It is a 10 / 10 game for me because it has a level of polish that even Mr Sheen would have a job to beat.… Expand
Nov 7, 2012A lot of people have INCORRECTLY said that there is NO penalty for being arrested, this statement is very WRONG.
I just had a car chase with the police that lasted over 40 minutes, during the chase, I gathered 53,872 speed points (experience) that I LOST when the police manged to put and end to my city wide rampage by taking out my tires and trapping me in a rail tunnel...
Had I managed to escape them I would have been given those points for the car I was driving and would have been able to upgrade it in many different ways.
A 40 minute car chase may sound boring but I can tell you, it was some of the most amazing and thrilling action I have every witnessed in a video game with stunts and crashes that would have put Hollywood to shame.
I strongly recommend this game, give it a chance, you wont be sorry.… Expand
Oct 31, 2012unbelievable game, the game Need for Speed game ever released. It got a 9 instead of 10 due to lack of dual screen mode. The best NFS game ever released, love it
Nov 2, 2012I'm enjoying it a lot. It's pretty much Burnout Paradise City 2.0. So if you liked Burnout......and you want to see it with better.....everything.....then you'll like NFSMW. Best thing: The fact you can see your friend's times for every race and speed camera. So you can constantly compete with all your friends.
Worst thing: Game is very short in terms of the main "mission".
Nov 1, 2012Look, giving this game a bad review because it "isn't a real sequel to most wanted" is ridiculous. Do you see a "2" or "two" anywhere in the title? Didn't think so. Criterion re-imagined a game, just like they did with Hot Pursuit. It's a great game. To the people complaining about manual. A) It's not a driving sim, It's an arcade racer, and since It's Need for Speed that should come as no surprise. B) demoting a game to a 0 based on that is childish. Every article about this game pre launch has stated that Its "Burnout Paradise 2.0" so why are any of you surprised or upset by this? Why did you even buy the game? For anyone who doesn't want a troll review, this is a great game. If you like Hot Pursuit two years ago or you liked Burnout Paradise you'll be right at home here. The gameplay is great, blowing through bilboards and pissing off the cops just to see if you can get away is awesome. Graphics are great, should also be no surprise. The fact you can play as any car from the start is something new and I personally like it.… Expand
Nov 2, 2012Spectacular. This game was sensational EA got hit once again recreating a classic. The passing system for instant repair was very good and practical cars around the scene was also found to be an excellent idea. Ramps, persecutions, good gameplay, beautiful graphics and great; fun make this game be right purchase.
Nov 5, 2012I'll be serious here. People don't know what they want. Actually, they do. THEY WANTED A COPY OF THE ORIGINAL MOST WANTED. They're so biased by that idea they don't even try to enjoy the present Most Wanted that, by the way, is an awesome game. People put all their efforts on hating a game that's actually good just for the sake of the game not being what the first was. I know, it lacks aesthetic customization of the car, there's no time break, or whatever that thing of slowing the time is called, BUT Most Wanted 2 has a sweet gameplay, astounding graphics and is **** fun. People **** about this game are just haters and don't deserve attention. I say, if you like arcade racers, Need For Speed included, this is a must play for you. It has much little in common with the previous Most Wanted, but is still a remarkable game, awesome to play with your friends or to spend hours wandering in its open world. The cars are gorgeous, the EasyDrive menu is easy to use and functional and the game takes a 9 from me. It doesn't take a 10 because it don't have body customization. But it doesn't spoil the fun.… Expand
Nov 6, 2012To anyone on the fence, to anyone who enjoys videogames or to anyone who is simply stressed out with life, Do urself a favour; GET THIS GAME. Why? Because its phenomenal. Forget the cry-babies, look at the score to the left
Nov 3, 2012Best game ever who ever don't like it hates extreme racing The Need For Speed game series is the best so to all the haters you guys shouldn't Play the game if you don't like it
Nov 4, 2012One of the best "Modern-day racers." Criterion delivers its next TRUE hit after Burnout Paradise. The driving mechanics feel great and the graphics are stunning. Though, the crashes do feel unfinished and bland.
Nov 6, 2012A great game for anyone looking for an arcade racer. It's not for everyone though, Fans of the series from it's roots (Before Underground) and fans of Burnout will likely have a blast playing this. But if your NFS experience started with Underground then you might want to rent it first. This is an arcade racer to the core and a good one at that. The only real complaint that I have is the name. Using the title Most Wanted is probably confusing a lot of people looking for a street racer like the original Most Wanted. This new Most Wanted is not a street racer, it is an Arcade racer. The single player lacks a bit and is mostly for racking up speed points, beating your friend's time and exploring, it is very short. The online is where this game shines. The online uses many elements from Burnout's easy drive and freeburn system. Some unique features were not included but the overall online experience is fun and entertaining. The only complaint about online is the lack of a ranked racing system. Overall the game shines and is a great example of a good arcade racer.… Expand
Nov 8, 2012Hi,
like everyone else here i m just another fan of NFS and Burnout...i am playing NFS when they launched Need for Speed II and till now i have played every nfs game and NFS2 and NFSMW 1 are my favorites......yesterday i bought NFSMW 2 and i must say that it was a huge disappointment in the begining when i started at 3:00 Am with a thought that i will check the gameplay and will sleep but after playing it for 2.5 hours...i was like "OK, now this is the new type of arcade" and I really liked it. Graphics are amazing soundtrack is amazing blah blah blah...but Game Play is awesome and breathtaking.
Almost everyone is against this game i dont know why?? lets discuss them
Crash cam sometimes feels irritating but as HUGE FAN i dont feel bad abt it NOW...i mean you get use to it.
Cop Chases are extremely hard and no special reward on evading but i am OK with it :)
no Story Line means no Fiction Characters and i like it.
Sometimes looking at the map takes you in a Crash so what...i mean anytime you can restart from your last check point.
no customization of engines and tires etc etc but i would say thats perfect cause in this game you already have everything. I cannot say anything about the ONLINE Game play but i am pretty sure that it will be whole new experience.
I mean common guys there cant be any other game like NFS MW 1 or Burnout...they were the best games of their time and they still are the BEST...i still play Most Wanted 1 on my laptop(actually i couldn't find it for Xbox). MW1 was a different game and this is a different game same goes for Burnout. so please dont mix NFSMW 2 with those games in fact no arcade racing game can be compared with those games and if you do then you are making a mistake or you are not a Fan of NFS or Burnout.
Those who are new in NFS, they will find this game not good no blah blah blah BUT fan like me will like this game.
Act like a NFS Fan not like a looser who thinks that i have lost my money on this game...i paid 60$ for this and i have no regret cause i really like nfs games (excluding some bs) and one more thing i play NFS most wanted on my iPhone also and there this game is totally different :)
P.S. Galvinize by chemical brothers is an excellent song used in this MW2… Expand
Nov 10, 2012greatest racing game ever created in the history of the world!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you're looking for a replica of the PS2 title, save your money and your review. That being said, if you're looking for one amazing racing game on all fronts (gameplay, presentation, graphics) then this will blow your mind. I've logged hours upon hours and keep finding nuances that make my heart race while I maintain a huge smile on my face. Outrunning the cops has never felt this good. Well done!!… Collapse
Nov 9, 2012It is very, very hard to rate this game. I'll admit that. Let's start with the bad things. There is no storyline in this game, just the basic ladder of Most Wanted Cars to climb, defeat and claim. There is no visual customization whatsoever in single player, and Paint only in multiplayer. Also, and this is personal, I much prefer the regular style of collecting money and leveling up to unlock, buy and upgrade new cars.
The way you truly rate a game is based on how much fun you have playing it, and NFS:MW is an absolute blast. I bought it along with AC3, and this game has taken most of my time. It's a really solid title with a compelling race style. Now, I love Gran Turismo for its realism, but I'm also a fan of arcade racing. I mean, why are people knocking this game for not being realistic as far as physics? It's a CRITERION GAME. And it's no secret that this is more of a sequel to Burnout: Paradise than any Need for Speed title. It's a fun game, with a well-structured multiplayer. The only drawbacks in that department are a) idiots who don't show up to the meet-up and waste our time and b) too many challenges about parking on roofs and near-missing and not enough real racing. But as I said, I can't put this game down quite yet. A solid 9. Wish I could give it a 9.5, if Metacritic would let me.… Expand
Nov 24, 2012This game is CRAZY. The open world is so big but lost, The cars are hottest, The pursuit is massive but dangerous and is more experiancble then The Run. This is the only need for speed game i love, since hot pursuit and shift 2 unleashed.
Nov 29, 2012I haven't played alot of need for speed games in my time, but when i decided to snatch this game up at walmart, it blew me away, the physics, graphics, dimensions, and different pros and cons about each car is soooooo realistic!!!!! The only thing that makes me not give this a 10 is the fact that you cant CUSTOMIZE your vehicle. Im a madden and COD type of guy, which is completely different from this game, So if your smart you will pick this game up.… Expand
Dec 2, 2012*This is my first review, please don't bash me if I'm saying something wrong* I've been with NFS since NFSU (GC). And I find the low scores like 0/10 or 1/10 just...stupid. The physics for this game is different and you'll need time to get used to it. But they've changed the physics frequently. I say: Always remember the rule; Slow In. Fast Out. The crash cam is very frustrating indeed. The graphics is top notch for NFS. The soundtrack is dynamic and very good, but why...where is the diversity. Well...you can always put in your custom playlist. My biggest flaw for this game in my opinion is the lack of a story. It feels like your are riding in a jungle and going everywhere instead of riding on a road. It's missing a structure. But it might be a good thing for the people who love to go nuts and race their own way without a script. ( I like both, though I prefer an open script ) On the other hand. The online structure is very good indeed, with constant online competition going on with/against your friends as you can track eachother with Autolog 2.0. The fact that you cannot pimp up your ride hasn't got into me as much it has gotten to the Underground/Most Wanted ('05) players of NFS. But the cars are already looking pimped up. Easydrive is a nice addition as well. No need for menus when you're picking an event while driving through Fairhaven, or adding some performance parts/mods when the 5-0 is chasing you. In short. It's a awesome game when you look through the minor flaws. Or for many NFS people out there: It's a Love It! or Hate It! game. I love it, though I needed some practice at first. I'll cut down 1 point of the total score.
-0.5: Unforgiving and frustrating crashes. -0.3:Lack of structure in single player.
-0.2:No pimpin' up your ride. ( But they're already looking pimp imo )
9.0/10: Looks awesome, feels awesome (when you practice) and sounds awesome. It's awesome and really focused on the racing experience of NFS. Though you will notice the flaws...*sigh* I still prefer the '05 version because of the story, Mia and the tsunami of nostalgia.… Expand
Jan 20, 2013Oh, by the way, this game may give you all the cars instead of making you buy them with money you win from races, but the "scavenger hunt" to look for and find the cars is a whole new level of fun.
Jan 22, 2013reguardless of it's shortcomings... this game is fun and by far the best arcade racer on the major consoles right now. it's just fun...and that is why you should play a game. because it is fun. the added features are amazing graphics and great sound. huge open worlds and destruction on cars.
i give it a 9.0 from a burnout fan and a nfs fan... i like this joint project between the two company's. i think they did a great job.… Expand
Jan 23, 2013I like how this need for speed game is focused on the open map. Unlike recent need for speed games. You don't have to play races unless you want too. You can get cars at any time, by going around and finding them. Which I love. There is lots of places to visit, the cops are good. I enjoy this game.
Apr 2, 2013Need for Speed is back to its core, or is it?
I have been a long time fan of the Need for Speed Franchise but have been disappointed in the series in the past few years. The Run was shameful, ProStreet was abysmal, Undercover was just a Most Wanted Rip off. Although Hot Pursuit and Most Wanted have been redeeming and funnily enough made by the same developers.
Gameplay 9/10 Action packed, Cinematic police chase and crazily fast races. All this makes Most Wanted one of my favourite racers this generation. If you've ever played Burnout Paradise, you'll instantly be able to see the comparison between the two. The Races can get a little repetitive at points and you only have 5 races per car or up to 4 extra with the DLC but you could easily get lost driving around the city.
Story 0/10 No Narrative, Just Takedown the Most Wanted to be the Most Wanted... Simple.
Presentation 8/10 I do love the new way the things are presented in the game (which are also featured in Metal Gear Rising), from race starts to scores everything is easily visible and clear. Race checkpoints and finish lines can be seen above the buildings in the distance and the scores are tagged onto the car like little price tags. Its brilliant and Minimalistic.
DLC 6/10 The DLC for this game is quite good, the new terminal brings in a whole new section into the game... although its just an airstrip with a few jumps it does make for some fun races and jumps as well as a good place to set some top speeds. The Pricing of the Packs are £7.99 each or £20 for the bundle. Getting the bundle is worthwhile as you get a bunch of new mods and cars, new and old. I personally love the Spyder & the James Bond DB. I wasn't a fan of the pricing though.
Overall 9/10 Brilliant game which has brought the need for speed series back to its roots, although the customisation is limited and it feels alot like Burnout Paradise 2. It separates itself from that shadow and brings its own unique content. The Graphics of the game set it apart from things like GT5, the Lighting under the wheels when the tires are blown are amazing at nighttime making it seem like fire from under the car.
I really enjoyed this game and recommend you buy the game, aswell as the DLC bundle!… Expand
Apr 29, 2014Absolute superb game. Beautiful graphics, immersive gameplay, awesome cars, huge open world and amazing multiplayer experience. Best racing game ever made on Earth.
Aug 23, 2014Criterion did a good job, altough it differs from PC, it's about gameplay, the graphics of the PS3 is good and the cars are really great to drive, though crashing happens but it doesn't really stops you from completing the game, unless you're looking for a harder challenge of getting gold medals and unlock all parts. There is also different parts and you can combine them to make your customized car and unlock their pro variants for a bigger boost. I specially like the Subaru WRX STI Hatchback which is the one I first did customize fully to my taste, and Lancer, more specifically everyday cars, they are also fun to race with and doesn't crash as much.… Expand

Nov 28, 2012Take Burnout Paradise's massive open world, strip out the wild, physics-defying, cabin-crushing crashes and insert a generous handful of the world's hottest or most iconic motors. This is Need for Speed that only Criterion could create. [Christmas 2012, p.83]

Words by Jesse Serwer—
"Si las mujeres mas buenas son las morena," Los Rakas' Raka Rich suggests on "Africana," the latest single from the Panamanian duo from out of California's Bay Area. Non-Spanish speakers might miss some things in translation, but Rich and rhyme partner Raka Dun's message on "Africana" is loud and clear: brown skinned women are the best women. No matter how you slice it, the poppy, reggae-tinged tune, produced by frequent Rakas collaborator Yeti Beats, sends a positive message to gals of darker complexion and African heritage. And if you can't follow the lyrics, the alluring cover art goes a long way to getting the point across.

BALTIMORE (AP) - Maryland casinos will be allowed to open 24 hours a day under new rules approved by state regulators.
The Maryland Lottery and Gaming Control Commission also decided Thursday to relax limits on ATMs and lending to gamblers in casinos.
The Baltimore Sun reports representatives from existing casinos and license-holders for Baltimore and Rocky Gap casinos that haven't opened yet worked with the state to write the new regulations. Voters approved an expansion to include table games as well as slot machines in November.
Joanna Franklin, program director for the University of Maryland's Center on Problem Gambling, says she was surprised that the commission worked in conjunction with casino operators to write the regulations. Franklin says she did not see a copy of the regulations until this week.

[QUOTE=John_0515;4504067]They're not converting to a true 46 defense. Rex doesn't do anything true to form. Honestly, he's doing what he didn't do in year 2 and year 3, try to evolve the defense. Instead he kept it the same and teams picked up on what they were doing.
Look at the Patriots' offense. They've evolved tremendously (or changed, or whatever you want to call it) since 2004. Changed the way they go about things, or philosophy, play to personnel strengths, etc. Rex didn't do this the last 2 years. I believe this is evidence of him learning, and evolving. Maybe it won't work out, but you can't stay the same while everyone around you changes and evolves.
We'll see what happens.[/QUOTE]
Well the question is whether or not they will have The lineman penetrate, or stand up their man, and whether the middle linebackers will flow or hit a gap. It doesn't really matter whether a guy is standing or has his hand in the dirt. I think it's obvious since they asked guys to slim down, and drafted a 230lb middle linebacker, and a pass rushing DE what they're going to try to do. We really need a true free safety, and quicker weak side backer, but I would imagine Rex has a plan. I only know that Rex does not expect lineman to be getting to the second level this year so that's it, for what it's worth.
btw it's obvious that sliming down will make you quicker. Not if you're thin like Maybin, but if you're thick like Bart of course it will help his lateral movement, backpedal, and change of direction skills.

HUNTINGTON, Ind. - Huntington University basketball coach Lori Culler has announced the signing of Faith Christian standout Lacy Deitrick as the latest addition to her Forester roster.Deitrick spent the first two years of her prep career at McCutcheon High School where the Mavericks claimed back-to-back regional titles to go along with two Hoosier Conference titles before making the move to Faith Christian High School.In addition to tossing in 7.6 points in an Eagle uniform this past season, Deitrick also dished out a team-high 3.4 assists and pulled down an average of 3.6 rebounds per outing. The sharp-shooter earned the Eagles' Team Player Award and was selected to play in the Indiana Elite North/South All-Star game. The 5-3 guard has also been active in the AAU circuit where she helped guide her Lafayette Basketball Academy team to the AYBT National Championship in 2011 and showed her range from deep by winning a 3-point shootout this past summer.Deitrick has excelled as a three-sport athlete throughout her high school career. In addition to earning four letters in basketball, she has logged just as many in softball to go along with a trio of letters in volleyball. "I am looking forward to going to Huntington University to get a Christian education and study Exercise Science," said Deitrick. "I am excited to play basketball for the HU Foresters."Culler is equally excited to have Deitrick become a Forester. "We're happy that Lacy has chosen to continue her basketball career at Huntington. She has had a tremendous impact on the program at Faith Christian School and we're looking forward to what she'll bring to HU. "She has good range on her jump shot and can handle the ball well. She also is a strong student who we expect will excel in the classroom as an Exercise Science major."

Laura Davies believes that Europe's Solheim Cup team has its best chance in years of regaining the trophy from the USA at Killeen Castle in Ireland.
Speaking at a press conference in Austria, the 11-time Cup player said: "I think now with this team we can bring back the Cup. It's been a long time and I think we now have the 12 players assembled who can do it. I think for the first time in a long while we have got a strong team of ball hitters and the Americans aren't playing as well as they normally do."
Davies will make her 12th appearance as a player in the event when it gets under way from September 23-25.
Speaking about her experience of being the only competitor from either team to have played in every match since 1990, she added: "It just means I've been around a long time. It just shows that when you don't go crazy with too much practise you can last a long time and who knows, maybe I'll play in 13 or 14 of them."

I wish to show some appreciation to the writer just for bailing me out of this instance. After surfing throughout the search engines and getting methods which were not helpful, I believed my life was gone. Living without the presence of solutions to the problems you have fixed through this review is a crucial case, as well as those which may have badly affected my entire career if I hadn't come across your blog post. Your own personal competence and kindness in dealing with all areas was crucial. I am not sure what I would have done if I had not discovered such a solution like this. I can also at this point look ahead to my future. Thanks a lot very much for your impressive and results-oriented help. I will not think twice to recommend the sites to anybody who would need guide on this topic.
