Condor falls in first PS2 run

Jason Ellis and Jason Ellis • September 3, 2002

Unlike Matt Hoffman's no handed 900 at the X Games, this game doesn't live up to expectations. A BMX tour of America is supposed to be fun, but this game leaves you wanting a little more. To be totally honest, this game is Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, except with bikes and pro bikers.

Dear editor, I read in yesterday's paper that there was a position open for a staff reporter. I went to UC 209 to get more information, but no one was there. Is there a time that would be best to stop...

Billy O'Keefe , Knight Ridder and Billy O'Keefe , Knight Ridder • August 27, 2002

Available: Now for PlayStation 2, GameCube and XBox From: Electronic Arts "NCAA Football 2003" plays a lot like its predecessor, almost exactly like it, in fact. That's no big surprise, the "Madden Football" engine on which it's based can be polished only so much, and "2003" does do a great job of emphasizing the always-exciting option play.

Madden dynasty rolls on

Jason Ellis and Jason Ellis • August 27, 2002

With the beginning of the NFL season just a few weeks away, what better game to start the year off with than Madden 2003. So, what should we expect from the number one selling football franchise in the world. We should expect excellence, and once again, that is what we get.

Profiling won’t unite America

(U-WIRE) MURFREESBORO, Tenn. -- President Bush recently teamed up with our Justice Department and asked our nation's neighborhood watch, the National Crime Prevention Council, to be their "eyes and ears in the war on terror." Although many people take this task seriously, I fear that such a request could lead to suspicion and eventually accusations against, yes, even our neighbors.

Student opinions play a vital role at NKU

Who really cares about editorials? On most days they're wedged in the back of the paper, behind the obituaries or classified ads. They seem like a formality, included only to preserve a tradition that lost it's meaning long ago. In fact, local newspaper readers are probably more familiar with Enquirer Cartoonist Jim Borgman than Enquirer Columnist Peter Bronson.

Football picks and dynasty disasters

Elias Hajjar and Elias Hajjar • August 27, 2002

The National Football League has had many dynasties throughout the course of its existence, starting with the Green Bay Packers of the 60s and ending with the Dallas Cowboys of the 90s. But that was the old NFL. Will the "new" NFL ever see another dynasty like the Pittsburgh Steelers of the 70s or the San Francisco 49ers of the 80s again? No way.

Ohio State routs Texas Tech with freshman leading charge

COLUMBUS, Ohio _ On Tuesday, Ohio State seemed like a team in disarray. On Saturday, it looked like a juggernaut. After a tumultuous week filled with suspensions, an arrest and a starter quitting the team, the 12th-ranked Buckeyes performed almost flawlessly in their season opener in the Pigskin Classic.

Greek Sneak Peek

Hushed conversations filled the air, while dozens of young women filled the seats of the University Center's second floor lobby. The crowd waited expectantly as the doors of the Ballroom opened for the official kick-off event of sorority recruitment - the Greek Sneak Peek Party.

‘One-Hour Photo’

Jami Bernard , New York Daily News and Jami Bernard , New York Daily News • August 27, 2002

Robin Williams continues the reconstruction of Robin Williams in "One Hour Photo," playing a lonely stalker who looks as washed-out as some of the photos he develops. Of his recent against-type roles, including those in "Death to Smoochy" and "Insomnia," Williams' performance in this smart, arty little indie is by far the creepiest.
