First All-Pro Football 2K8 video coming Friday night
The first video for APF 2K8 will air on Spike TV at 1am Friday night the 8th (technically Saturday morning the 9th). It will then hit the gametrailers.com site a half hour later.
I think most people would agree that the most important thing in terms of visuals is how it looks while the game is in play. Regardless of the disappointing screenshots in the end that will be what matters once you've got the game in. Screenshots are never the best way to judge a game.
It will be interesting t...
New group of All-Pro Football 2K8 screenshots
IGN has posted a set of screens for APF 2K8. And to most I'd imagine they will be considered a disappointment. Check them out here.
So there is now no question that the edge in graphics goes to Madden. I'd have to say that it even surprises me how poor these look and I didn't have high expectations.
Take a look at the crowd and the grass. That is next-generation?
The giant bird is beyond ridiculous. Its wings represent the retractable roof, but why is the roof closed to when there is cl...
New NCAA Football 08 stadium screenshots
Teamxbox has posted up over 150 new screens of the stadiums from NCAA Football 08. Not every stadium is displayed however as Florida, Alabama, and Oregon (among possibly some others) seem to be missing from the group.
The environments surrounding the stadiums are what impresses me the most with these.

Four new Madden 08 screenshots
EA Sports has released four new screens from Madden 08. Click the thumbnails below to see them full size.
Interestingly enough Barry Sanders and Walter Payton are featured here, showing that 2K didn't end up with exclusive contracts with at least some of the legends (maybe not any) when they signed them for All-Pro Football 2K8. The other two show the spectacular and sideline catches off.

All-Pro Football 2K8 soundtrack revealed
2K Sports has released the soundtrack listing for APF 2K8.
All-Pro Football 2K8 will feature a DJ Z-Trip produced soundtrack with all original tracks, remixes and mash-ups. Z-Trip, the famed originator of the mash-up craze and renowned remixer and producer, has given a twist to the art of combining disparate songs by having the Dead Prez provide an all-new rap over a rocking Deftones’ track. He also mashes up Rakim with Chevelle, while remixing “Tom Sawyer,” the classic Rush song. In ...
All-Pro Football 2K8 Cover Art
It appears the final cover art has been released for All-Pro Football 2K8. You can see the full size image by clicking the thumbnails below.
The artistic style of the cover gives it the feel of being from the "past" however there is just something about it that doesn't click with me. Blitz: The League went a similar route with their covers. I feel like it's the cartoony look (especially in the case of Elway) that doesn't come across right. Probably was a good idea to feature a trio as o...
Madden 08 Power Rankings (Top 5)
And now the top 5 in the power rankings for Madden 08.
Previous 32-28, 27-22, 21-16, 15-11, 10-6.
5- New Orleans Saints
New Orleans looks a lot like they did last year, with the exception of Joe Horn departing. His loss shouldn't cause too much damage to a very good offensive unit. Because of the weapon categories, players like Drew Brees, Reggie Bush, Deuce McAllister, and Marques Colston should benefit. The defense which ranked 11th last year should hold steady.
4- Indianapolis Co...
Draft day commercial for NBA Live 08 and NCAA March Madness 08 being made
It appears there is a good chance that a commercial for the upcoming NBA Live and March Madness games will appear during the NBA Draft on June 28th. Recently at the NFL Draft the first commercials for Madden 08 were on display, and featuring a commercial for these two upcoming games with their respective cover athletes would make a lot of sense at the draft this month.
Gilbert Arenas mentions in his blog that he will be joining Kevin Durant to film a commercial for EA Sports on June 5th. ...
