  • Nintendo has announced a new Punch-Out coming to the Wii. You can check out screens and the trailer here. This is what Facebreaker should’ve been but didn’t come near achieving. The Wii version of Facebreaker will be releasing next month and apparently has shown some promise but I’ve been soured on the concept of the game now. I like the thought of the more old school Punch-Out experience.
  • For those who don’t buy NBA Live 09 new the purchase of the Live 365 service is apparently supposed to be $10. PSN has listed the item incorrectly for $20 and that should be corrected in the near future. Even at $10 I’m not sure how many people would spring for it as an add-on, but there is no doubt it is a fantastic feature and is already paying dividends that will increase greatly once the season starts.
  • Site visitors/forum members Cabrillo24 and Tomba321 have created custom slider sets for NBA Live 09. You can find all the details on them and leave your feedback in the forum. The EA Locker this year allows for downloading of slider sets that have been uploaded and designated as public. For 360 users in the game’s menu go to: Xbox Live – My NBA Live 09 Content – EA Locker – Global Content – Settings. Grab from the gamertags cabrillo24 and/or DARTH KTULU.
  • I continue to get questions regarding the potential downloadable content for Madden 09 that had been discussed a while back. While there has been no definitive response one way or the other I am not expecting anything to come of it. Basically don’t hold your breath. At this point I’d just expect what was to be offered in the DLC to be included with Madden 2010.
  • The next NBA Live 09 OTP night will be Tuesday at 5pt/8et. As dictated by the poll the club team been changed to the Hornets for the time being. The next EASHL night with NHL 09 will be Thursday at 5pt/8et. If you need invites to either club leave your gamertag in the comments.

    Seriously this is the kinda stuff I’m going to start deleting. Its one thing to post your opinions on the site, I’ve never had problems with that. But please stop telling people that their opinions are wrong, as if you are somehow all knowing and determine the worth of games.

    Hey John McCain (sdot), since you wanted to bring up IGN’s rating system in a previous thread and how they are a credible site and their rating is hands down accurate:

    IGN rating: 8.8 “GREAT”

    http://xbox360.ign.com/objects/142/14229536.html

    Now, let me see you twist that. We can agree to disagree. I personally think IGN’s ratings are hit or miss, but I just wanted to have fun and see you twist this one since this was the foundation of one of your other arguments in another blog.

    I’m done with you, yet again. Too easy.

    Therefore, since you only respect Gamespot and IGN

    Gamespot rated Madden 09 as: 8.0 “Great”
    IGN rated Madden 09 as: 8.8 “Great”

    sdot, you run your mouth too much. You owe me an apology :)

    oh so you only have respect for IGN and Gamespot when they are reviewing basketball games only……….ohhhhhhhhh I got you. If you go back we were talking about reviews in general and you ended it with the comment about isomotion. Watching you back pedal is funny, I knew you would. So other “credible” gaming sights that you listed felt that Madden was a great game, and so do many others, and so do A LOT of people, but I’m an idiot for thinking it’s GREAT? I’m sorry sdot, which reviewer do you work for? What’s your site again? Who are you? LOL.

    Make sure to get a mirror to see what you’re back peddling yourself into. Back to my original point. ALL SPORTS GAMES miss the small intangibles, but doesn’t really take away from the experience. I’d love for more intangibles to be in the game, but I’m not going to cry about it, it’s minimal.

    You started this, I just finished it. Next time look before you leap and you can save yourself some embarrassment.

    LOL, you have awesome back peddling skills, but you’ve been proved wrong with your own words. Say what you want to say, but the text is right there, as much as you want to spin it and “post ellaborate.” It’s just funny how you’re not consistent with what you say, unless the argument is made that your consistently inconsistent. That’s besides the point. Like I said, you tried to jump in, you took what I said out of context, tried to twist it, failed, then I took what you said in context, compared it to something else you said that was related…and well, we know what happened next, you back peddled like you were a politician.

    People like you make this site lose any credibility. Stay at the 2K forums, or go back crying to the IGN boards (yes I know you hang out there, lol). Too funny. I’m done with ya boy. Time to play some 2K :)

    Out of 26 press ratings, Madden was rated 8.4 (average rating = great). I guess you’re the smart one, and all the reviewers are “STUPID STUPID STUPID”.

    Game, set and match :)
