New Madden 08 gameplay video
Gametrailers has posted a new gameplay video from Madden 08. The Packers face off against the Chiefs at Aloha Stadium (Pro Bowl). Some thoughts on it follow below.

New Nascar 08 videos
New videos have made their way out for Nascar 08 showing off some in-game action and a look at drafting.Is it just me, or do the graphics look considerably worse than previous videos and screenshots? I'm not sure what the deal is here, its listed as PS3. However it seems noticeably less impressive than what we have seen so far.
