Men Lie, Women Lie, Sports Media lies.....NUMBERS don't

There are many people who keep on saying that Peyton Manning is the greatest QB of all time....WRONG. He may be the greatest Regular Season QB of all time, but we play the game to win Super Bowls.

Peyton Manning has 4 regular season MVPs....(not deserving of all of them) yet he only has 1 Super Bowl win to his name. On top of that he did not even deserve MVP of that game, that should have gone to Dominic Rhodes. ... Read More

Over the last few weeks, I have been reading about how Nintendo does not feel that consumers (gamers) DON'T want an HD Wii. Reggie Fils Aime keeps saying that it is something that is not needed. I feel that gamers disagree....and so do Devs. One would think that Nintendo learned from their Gamecube failures...and that they would want to actually have more mature games on the Wii, which is not a bad system, it is just a home for Shovelware.

The Wii has so much potential with it's ... Read More

I am just going to list ways in which I feel Madden 11 can achieve greatness:

*No More Perfect Defenses: We should not feel like we are playing against Psychics who run the pattern better the WRs....Super Jumping Skills....Super Recovery speed...and unrealistic physical mechanics that defy physics.

*Stop the Suction Tackling/Blocking: This makes the game feel very scripted....your players get sucked into tackles when they should be breaking away, D-Linemen are magically ... Read More

The time has come, for better or worse, that we must all get behind EA Sports. With the decline of 2Ksports and no other competitors in earshot, EA has a stranglehold on the market for sports games. 2Ksports and SCEA make NBA and Baseball games currently, but 2K is dropping titles every year and now only are producing NBA 2K and MLB 2K (unfortunately) and it seems as if those who are in charge @ 2K are either not business savy or have given up on trying to please the customers in their sports categories. ...

"Winning isn't everything it's the only thing" is a harsh reality in today's dog eat dog society. Vince Lombardi the author of this quote was a football coach who took the worst team in the league, the Green Bay Packers, and made them into a perennial powerhouse. He was and still is considered to be one of the best coaches ever to coach in the sport of football. His statement holds true in today's game because it is both the athletes and the coach's goal to be the best in their profession"

Drums beating....Players enthusiastically sprinting out of the locker room onto the court with a deafing crowd filling the arena with loud chants and screams! Cheerleaders flipping and cheering on the sideline. Live Commentators on the floor giving you a lead in to the game......

Welcome to College Hoops 2K8, THE GOAT of all sim basketball games currently. Some of you may wonder why I am writing a blog about a game that is over 2years old and I intend to give you the answer. ... Read More

Are in NFL 2K5 for free!!!!! Another reason that Madden needs to finish stepping its game up if they are to make people "forget" about 2K5.....right now NFL2K5 is running this!!!!!

I have been an avid fan of both of these games for seemingly an eternity! I cannot decide which one to buy this year! I like the direction both are heading and actually thought NBA Live 09 was better on the court than 2K last year. What are your thoughts on the upcoming game?

To often we just have accepted what has been offered to us. While I applaud the positives in both games, gamers need to stop blindly calling a product "the saving grace" when in fact it is behind. Behold the issues:

NCAA 10:

* Did it ever occur to anybody that this game plays at a speed that is best reserved for Street Fighter, not football. NCAA needs to adopt Madden's options for speed (Slow would be ideal) and the sliders to widen or lessen the gap between faster ... Read More

Originally I championed MAdden 10....but after spending almose two and a half weeks with the game...I am having a change of heart....I will write a new review highlighting the bugs and of course Challenging my theory that this game is better than NFL 2K5...because overall it is not.

After months upon months on end Madden 10 has finally arrived. For the last 5 years gamers have suffered through a sub-par NFL game that has been pretty much untouched year after year. With a new Lead Game Designer, Ian Cummings, and his crew leading the way would things be different this time around?

Lets jump right in:

Presentation had been a sore spot for Maddenites for the entire next gen...up until now. Madden 10 is not only the closest ... Read More

Good Afternoon All,

I do believe that Madden 10 will be a very good game. However, I can only laugh at the excuses I have read on the board for what can and cannot be added to a game in a year. There is a certain game that came out 5 years ago that quite a bit of people still play to this day....it worked year to year just like Madden and looked what they created 5years ago that is still making a deep impact and gaining new fans everyday! This is not a bashing nor is it a time for ... Read More

As of right now I have to congratulate Ian and the boyz on what seems to be a great game. However, as far as them passing NFL 2K5, I will have to play the finished product because I do not have enough evidence from the demos and videos. Here are the areas that I do believe M10 has beaten 2K5 at finally:

Graphics.......(crickets)

Yes that is the only area where they have beaten 2K5. Is Maddens gameplay great...you bet it is!!! It is the best it has ever been in the ... Read More
