Earlier this week word started leaking out that THQ would be including a unique one-time use code in new copies of UFC 2010 Undisputed. This code provides access to all online play functionality.

Backbreaker Demo Update and Talk of Sequel
Maybe the first good indicator in some time for Backbreaker as the demo has cleared approval with Microsoft and Sony. That likely means it will be out next Tuesday. All along the importance of the demo has been stressed for the game and though a week before release isn't ideal it would seem to be enough to allow judgments to be made on the game. Ironically if it does hit on Tuesday it will be up against the release day of UFC 2010 Undisputed. UFC debuted last year and used its demo to prope...

First Dynasty Blog for NCAA Football 11
EA Sports has released a new blog, the first in a series of three, that goes over improvements to Dynasty mode in NCAA Football 11. This one touches on the "phone call" aspect of recruiting and contains some screenshots from that area of the game. Check out the full posting here.

The goal was to make each call more fun, a lot faster, and just a better experience all around. Much of the...
