    OS E3 Impressions Update #2- Last Updated 7:27 pm

    Just checked out Madden and NBA 2k7. Folks, Gang Tackling is not in the E3 version of Madden. Ive watched a couple of games now and I ve seen several oppurtunities for the CPU and player's defenders to gang tackle and it hasnt happened. What happens is one player makes the tackle while the other defender gets knockdown as a result of the collision. The grass textures look great on the 360. I havent made it over to the West hall where Sony and Nintendo are but I'm on my way now.

    NBA 2k7 looks alot like 2k6 and thats good news. Why? Because the 2k teams focused on other things to make the game more rounded. It appears that accurate arenas are now in the game. Players like Steve Nash and Shawn Marion have their own individual shots and mannerisms. The bench is fully 3D and each individula player reacts to the action on the court. Also they added the coach on the fly feature found in College Hoops 2k6. I'll be back later with another update.

    __________________________________________________ ______________________________________________-

    Just checked out the PS3 and like everything else there are some positives and negatives. The PS3 controller is damn good controller and has a great feel to it. Its the lightest controller Ive ever used. I got a chance to play Gran Turismo HD and it looks alot better then the clip Sony showed at the press conference. I would say graphically its on par if not a bit better looking than PGR3. I also played Forumla One which looked like a subpar 360 game or a great Xbox game. Its amazing to me that two similar games on the same system could look so much different.

    Then I played Madden on the PS3. Honestly, I dont know why EA or Sony would show this game when its only 30% complete. The game looked choppy, each player had a strange shine to them and some of the animations (especially the passing animations) looked worse than Madden 06 on current gen. Keep in mind that this was only a 30% build but I cant undersatnd why they would show the game this soon. On a non sports note: Resistance loooks incredible and seems like a lot of fun.

    Finally, Nintendo really pissed me off with the way the have thir booth set up. Every other developer has open booths where you can walk in and play or observe every game. Not Ninetndo. They have a Wii section that you have to wait in line in order to just take a look at the games. I'll bite the bullet and wait in line tomorrow. I'll be back later.

      Are the colors toned down Aaron? I noticed that the coloring in 2k6 was just far too bright, and it took the tv look feel away from the game.

      What are the noticable gameplay differences?

          If you want to check out the Wii, you better go early.

          IGN says the wait to get in right now is over 3 hrs.

            Thanks a lot Aaron

            I'm probably one of the few who isn't going to start complaining that gang-tackling isn't in Madden/NCAA...they both sound like they're shaping up to be good games, and that's a very good thing.
