It's razzle dazzle time again.



And it's a Wii exclusive. Peter Moore is a delusional Nintendo fanboy!



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs

Let's hope it's good!!! I want it nowwww!!

I wonder if NFL Blitz (or Blitz-like, I realize that license was held by a company that no longer has an NFL license) would be next.

As for players being in/not being in a game -- that is a highly volatile issue at all levels. Players generally have to sign-off on it through the union. In baseball, Barry Bonds stopped doing that late in his career while anyone who had served as a replacement player in 1995 was blackballed by the union, not allowed to join, and thus not in the game.

I am Mario.


I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble.

Will they swap Bill Clinton with Obama?



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Got a retro room? Post it here!

EA is finally doing something that appears to be very smart for the Wii sports titles. EA knows that their standard sports titles such as Madden aren't doing well on the Wii. Tiger Woods '10 is one of their few shining successes on the Wii.

NBA Jam is a game that couldn't be better designed for the Wii's core demographic. If they touch this game up right and keep the fun-factor high, I predict that it will come close to selling 1 million units. For those of you who weren't gaming back then, NBA Jam was a game that was almost universally admired by everyone who played it. I spent many all-night sessions with my friends.

The gameplay should be simple and addictive, the graphics updated, and usage of the Wii Controller if designed well could actually aid in making this game even more fun than the originals.

EA should also bundle in a copy of the old game for nostalgia's sake.



 

Most anticipated games of 2011:

Uncharted 3,Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, Rocksmith

Modern Warfare 3, Super Mario 3D

 

This is amazing. If EA knows how to do one thing well, it's arcade sports titles. NBA Street was fantastic.

Hopefully this opens up the floodgates to get NFL Blitz in the lineup. Madden NFL Arcade is a sweet title, so if they could get that group to do it that would be great.



Tag: Became a freaking mod and a complete douche, coincidentally, at the same time.



I saw this on SportsNation on ESPN today.
