Some more Prizefighter details
Gameplanet, a New Zealand website, has released some previously unknown specifics on 2K Sports' Don King Presents: Prizefighter. It looks as though they were able to obtain a partial fact sheet. Live the Boxing Life - A full career mode offers players a comprehensive story line that follows them through real-life boxing situations such as injuries, facing stacked odds against a corrupt judge, and more. These dramatic moments are told in a sports documentary style using the voices and imag...

FIFA Street 3 coverage to begin soon
I am expecting my copy of FIFA Street 3 to arrive tomorrow. From there I will try and get up some impressions, list of teams with breakdown of player types (tricksters, playmakers, finishers, enforcers) and rosters/ratings, along with some full game videos. Given that the game is still three weeks from release the coverage will be spread out more than usual probably with a new piece of content every other day. As always if you have any questions or aspects of the game you would like me ...

NBA Live OTP night two recap
Both of the second night games were evenly matched and well played. I've definitely noticed improvement as everyone playing has gotten more comfortable with the mode, their assignments, and communication. One aspect I haven't really written much about is how great it is to have communication with only your teammates. Next year hopefully they'll have more ways to take advantage of that (setting picks, posting up, ect). Despite that it is tough getting back on defense to prevent easy hoops bec...

I have added MLB 2K8 to the screenshot gallery. Currently the gallery contains nine screens, some of which I believe are brand new. The gallery will continuously be updated as images become available all the way through release of the game....

Mini GameShow
I have written a good deal about EA GameShow and how I got hooked on it immediately. You can check out all of the articles on its tag page. After trying out some of the new features of the December update I haven't been able to play all that much. When you sit down for Gameshow you want to set aside a good chunk of time and I just haven't had that or the energy lately to do so. Interestingly enough comes along GameShow "Fun Size". This is a quick mini-version that is played on the web and i...

FIFA Street 3 updates
With the demo already out (impressions and video) it's somewhat anti-climactic that a flurry of hands-on impressions for FIFA Street 3 have made their way out. I'll link a few below but for the most part if you read one you'll have a good idea of what you'll find in the rest. Also the official website has gone live. TeamXbox IGN Gamespy 1UP I'm hoping to get a full list of teams and rosters in the near future. Other than that I think everyone by now has a good idea of what to expect...

NBA Live OTP night one recap
Another two games of NBA Live 08 OTP will be played tonight and after the success of the first night I'm really looking forward to it. The games were a lot of fun and it was nice to have some teamwork and ball distribution to go along with no lag to speak of. The six minute quarters seemed to be the right length as well. Just a great experience all around. Both games had 3 users on each team with the other two players controlled by the CPU. Thanks to everyone who participated. Tonight the...

Prizefighter SI preview
Sports Illustrated has a short preview of Don King: Prizefighter that mentions a few new pieces of info about the game. You can read the full preview here and I've pulled out a few statements below. The main theme of Prizefighter's single-player career mode plays off of King's statement: It's about the choice you have to make between glory and money. Would you rather hit the gym to train for your next fight or work on enhancing your notoriety? The former can help get you a win, but the la...
