For those that don't have Xbox Live, here is the first update for NCAA Football 11
================================================== =============
How to use with USB stick
It is now very easy to apply updates to games using only an Xbox-formated USB stick. First you need a windows program to allow you to view the stick. Get it HERE. Just place this program anywhere (I recommend on your desktop).

Now, take your USB stick (it's already been formated by your Xbox, ... Read More

Get it HERE.

Ever wanted to have a database of MLB's PitchFX data, but found it too daunting to use any of the Perl scripts available on the net? Well here it is.

GetPitchFX is a windows program that will automatically retrieve the PitchFX data from the web, and insert it into a database. It works for either Access 2007 (with the empty database included, it's needed if you intend to use Access) or SQL. I use MySQL, so I know it works with that, I can't verify other ... Read More

So I was up late looking for a game of MLB The Show. Someone sends me an IM in the room asking if I wanted to play....

The result?
A 23 strikeout, 1 hit ball game. I used Scott Baker of the Minnesota Twins against the New York Mets. All-Star level with Meter pitching. Not a perfect game, but close. The video below show the strikeouts as well as the lone hit I gave up...I should've had it but I hesitated before realizing that I hadn't gave up a hit yet.

*** Updated with stats from 20 games of All-Star level***

I don't know how many people will find this interesting, but some of you might..so this is for you (and me).

Last year I wanted to see how I could use MLB data and averages in an attempt to make MLB 2K8 as realistic as possible. Now I'm using that same data with MLB 09 The Show. Some background on what this is and how I used it.

What I did was write some perl scripts that downloaded all the available ... Read More

Part 2. Same as Part 1, Jason's answers are in BOLD.

Just thought I'd post some videos I've found on tricks and skills for PES 2009. While these show a good majority of them, go ahead and share any others that you might know and I'll add them to the blog. I know there's more out there..like Cristiano Ronaldo is supposed to have that heel cut that he does, but I haven't seen it posted anywere.

Also, some Free Kick Tips:
On short FK's, (~18m) aim to to far corner - Hold Down on left stick - Use just short of 50% power - press ... Read More

I used to be a Pro Evolution Soccer fanboy. I'm ashamed to admit I was a fanboy of anything, but I was of PES. Or Winning Eleven (WE) as it was sold here in the United States. I bought a PS2 soley for the purpose of playing WE9 and it was the only game I owned for more than a year. I reveled with my fanboy mates on the message boards about PES's superior gameplay over the big bad FIFA. I meticulously edited each team and created logos and crests and renamed players. It was the best soccer game ever ... Read More
