I am a directv subscriber that includes game lounge. I am having a problem with logging into game lounge on line . I seen on game lounge that there is a spin off contest to enter for a prize. I’d like to enter the contest.
My husband and I were playing 10 pin bowling and you need to work on some errors in this gaem. Your player two look retarded and you need to fix the graphics on player two.
You now have the ball going down the lane much faster than before besides having player two graphics and much different than player one.
