Latest NBA Live 10 Updates
The last couple of days have brought about a flurry of NBA Live 10 blogs and videos. Not only do they provide new information and clarity on previously announced enhancements but there are also side-by-side comparisons to 09 that display the stark differences between the two iterations. Following up on the Hustle Plays earlier in the week comes a look at the dribble moves being referred to as "Size Ups". There are a couple of videos here to show off the (in some cases) player specific siz...

Madden NFL 10 Online Impressions
Online play has been a mixed bag for Madden over the last few years. It is one of the most heavily played games online yet it lacked consistently requested options and features and also was plagued by disconnects and occasional lag. For Madden 10 the biggest addition is obviously Online Franchise, but also there is Online Co-Op and smaller but relevant changes like the ability to set your depth charts to use in the online games. The Online Franchise servers just went live last night so un...

NBA Live 10 Hustle Plays
EA Sports has provided a new video to IGN showcasing more of the "Hustle Plays" that were first mentioned in the previous gameplay enhancements trailer. This time though the video includes actual footage of the game as it is being played from the default gameplay camera. There are definitely some impressive examples of the hustle plays shown and they really stand out compared to what those players would've done in similar situations last year. Fast breaks also appear to have improved quite a...

Madden 10 Video Blowout #3
Continuing with the series of HD quality videos from Madden 10 this set focuses on franchise mode, in particular the halftime and Extra Point franchise shows. I've really enjoyed these even though they are somewhat lacking. There certainly is the base for something special here. I've found that I sit through all the highlights which is something I've never done before. I'll talk more about them in detail in my full impressions. I've decided to hold the online play videos until I put up my...

Madden 10 Video Blowout #2
Here is another set of HD quality Madden 10 gameplay videos. Featured in this bunch of videos are the Redskins @ Eagles (in the snow), Packers @ Lions, Chiefs @ Raiders (in the rain), and Chargers @ Broncos (in heavy snow with the "wide" camera angle). Weather conditions really have an effect as you'll see players slipping on occasion. When that happens as a WR the icon disappears and as a QB you are momentarily unable to throw. Tomorrow afternoon I'll get up some clips from online games ...

Madden 10 Video Blowout #1
Here is the first group of HD quality videos I've captured from Madden 10. In this batch you'll find short clips against the CPU with the Dolphins @ Jets, Buccaneers @ Saints, and the halftime show from Rams @ Seahawks. There are also user vs user late 4th quarter videos as I attempt to make a comeback as the Texans against the Vikings and Jerkfacefave attempts a comeback late as the Titans against the Panthers in a defensive battle. Tonight I'll add in some more videos against the CPU as we...

The devs are currently working on one that could roll out with either the second patch or as free downloadable content. EA has posted up a video displaying the work-in-progress broadcast camera. Continue on to check it out and leave your thoughts in the comments. (more...)...

The BIGS 2 Initial Impressions
With all that has been going on lately I haven't had much chance to delve into The BIGS 2. This being the sequel to one of my favorite sports games of this generation I had high hopes. At the same time I somewhat expected it to not achieve those hopes because the original was such a surprise and it would only be building off of that. From the demo it was clear the game would remain similar enough but with several enhancements to the experience though a questionable change to the camera. Woul...

Quick Madden 10 Demo Thoughts
Reaction to the demo for Madden NFL 10 thus far has fallen on the positive side. Well, at least that is the case for those who can actually get a feel for the game by having access to the extended demo. While I haven't had a lot of time to dedicate playing the demo I wanted to drop some initial notes I took from running through it a few times and from thinking back to how it compares with the E3 build. Continue on to check out the impressions, screenshots, and video. (more...)...
