No Pre-Release Demo For MLB 10: The Show
Though it hasn't been stated explicitly all signs point to the demo for MLB 10: The Show being absent from the PSN update today. SCEA has remained notably silent about the demo while the Playstation Blog today posted an article on the game advertising the opportunity to play the game at select Best Buy locations. (Update) Can now confirm there will be no downloadable pre-release demo. Now, if this wasn't The Show, I would be a lot more concerned. For the most part everyone knows what to exp...

New Details on Backbreaker
With Backbreaker having started promotion in advance of its May 18th release some previews will be out in the coming weeks. Scans of a new preview in the overseas magazine X360 have emerged. The actual article is written in an overly sensationalist manner so from it I've pulled out just the information on the game that hasn't been touched on before. Created teams being used online will not have the customized logos, jerseys, and field art displayed to opponents. It is implied that the deci...

MLB 2K10 Demo Impressions
From the time the demo for MLB 2K10 was released I've been keeping notes, some of which I've been posting to Twitter along the way. I've compiled my thoughts and observations here and will just stream them out. I've also included another two HD videos of a demo play through. Overall based on the demo MLB 2K10 is going to offer a much cleaner and more rewarding experience than previous iterations. There are a number of issues though, some of which won't be properly evaluated until the comple...

Starring Jackie Chan as the mentor Mr. Han and Jaden Smith (Will Smith’s son) as Dre, the movie takes the young character to China after his mother accepts a new job. In order to deal with a bully Dre is taught kung fu by the maintenance man Mr. H...

MLB 2K10 Demo Videos
After a lengthy process my first HD videos of the MLB 2K10 demo are now live. The recording is one of the first times I played through and it was 3am so there are a few quirks. For example there is a stretch where I throw three or four consecutive wild pitches not realizing I was doing the changeup motion instead of the fastball motion. Also I started rushing things near the end of the second video as I was trying to complete the demo within the 10 minute time limit placed on uploads. I'm cont...
