NHL 09 community day video
EA Sports recently had a community day for NHL 09. The timing is especially encouraging considering the game won't release until September. By bringing in the community for feedback and suggestions at such an early point in development it allows for the team to potentially act on what they hear for 09. The first time EA really did this was last year with NBA Live 08. That one was held over three months ahead of release and there were positive results in the final product that could possibly...

Scrapped Facebreaker Venues
Thanks to the official Facebreaker website we have two examples of concept art in planetarium and skate venues that didn't make the final cut. Pretty neat ideas and makes you wonder what type of venues they'll have in the game if these didn't make the final cut. Click the thumbnails below to view the two images. For some reason I hadn't even thought about the idea of fighting in non-traditional environments. It does fit the over-the-top nature of the game though and will add to the fun fact...

Prizefighter release date practically official
Yesterday I speculated that Don King Presents: Prizefighter appeared to be headed for a June release. Later in the morning retailers such as Gamestop, EB Games, and Gamefly updated their release date to June 10th for the 360. The Wii and DS versions of the game apparently won't be coming until later this year as they have a September placeholder. While 2K Sports has yet to give a specific date for the game (likely won't see that until it is attached to a press release) there is little rea...

Prizefighter release not likely all that near
Back in January it looked like Don King Presents: Prizefighter was headed towards an early-mid spring release. Not long after discussing that possibility Gamestop moved the date back giving it a May placeholder essentially signaling that they anticipated a May release but were not given a concrete date. Generally 2K Sports promotes one title at a time with the games being spaced out at least three weeks or month apart. Right now the focus is on the bizarre Nintendo DS game MLB 2K8 Fantasy...
