    Director Peter Jackson is hoping to deliver an innovation that will catch on in the same manner James Cameron did by resurrecting 3D with Avatar by shooting The Hobbit in 48fps (frames per second). The typical film is shown at 24fps and doubling that results in a much smoother, though maybe too life-like, look and feel. Early impressions from those who have seen particular scenes of The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey in 48fps have been largely negative with the most common comparison being ma...

    The first week of the season is now complete with teams having turned in two to four games in that span. NBA 2K13 is still missing a large number of players and has other errors to fix in the next roster update but some representation of how individuals are performing in these early stages should be expected as well. James Harden has certainly earned an upgrade as have rookies Damian Lillard and Dion Waiters. Darren Collison, Jamal Crawford, Brandon Jennings, and Anderson Varejao have als...

    EA Sports today released an official trailer for the Nintendo Wii U version of Madden NFL 13. The game is set to release next week in advance of the console arriving on Sunday, November 18. There has been very little in the way of promotion when it comes to the upcoming sports titles for the Wii U from either EA (Madden, FIFA 13) or 2K Sports (NBA 2K13). For the most part the games are offering a few ways in which to take advantage of the tablet controller while omitting some features tha...

    Sitting at approximately the mid-season mark has allowed for some more proper examination of current player ratings in Madden NFL 13. Last time it was the quarterbacks, and in a few weeks they'll get checked up on again, but this time around focus turns to the running backs. Of course there is no way to account for everything that goes into a RB's attributes or their circumstances - which can include but are certainly not limited to their blocking abilities, system of splitting carries an...
