Ahh, Keith "Snorting Cocaine" Hernandez. Just razzing ya. He was actually my favorite player growing up as a kid in St. Louis. I was devastated when he got traded to the Mets for broken down Neil Allen. At the time, I couldn´t understand why he had been traded. There were reports that he was lazy an...

Wow! I´m gonna have to try that tonight. Excellent tip. After playing last night and not having much success switching players with the L trigger (not a real smooth transition), I just figured I´d have to get used to controlling one player....This could certainly make the game even more enjoyable. T...

Not only should that website listed as a "favorite" by every gamer, it should be noted that these are free gametrailers.....which seem to be quite unusual these days. Not to mention there are actual gameplay screen movies mixed as well. Thanks for the heads up!

I´d be interested to hear how it compares to NBA Street in terms of "addicting gameplay" and overall fun. I don´t have XBL at the moment so I´m on the fence about this title in terms of single player. Thanks.

I most recently re-purchased a PS2 primarily for WE6, so now I have both systems. In the grand scheme of things, both of these systems are going to be around for another 2-4 years so in my mind, it´s money well spent. Why? Simply because games are going to come out that I´m going to want to play tha...

On the same topic of Jay Williams btw, it´s pretty pathetic listening to the sports hosts in Chicago brushing him off like he´s done and speaking ill of him as a player.

I´ve never been a fan of Duke....well, perhaps now I will when they play North Carolina. Anyways, what a tragedy about Jay Williams. From the reports, the prognosis doesn´t look good at all. I truly hope he can recover and play ball again but it´s definitely going to be a long road back. My thoughts...

"Dan, I admire your passion for the noble pursuit of college athletics. Too bad big-time college sports are just as filthy as pro sports. " <BR> <BR>I am not saying that college athletics paints itself a rosey picture. Case in point, the problems that are now occuring in the ACC and dominoe effect t...

"But I should have been more specific: Name me one guy in the last five years -- really when the baby boom has started in the NBA -- who ignored dead-certain lottery status and had the success and instant national name recognition of Carmelo Anthony yet stayed all four years." <BR> <BR>In order as f...

"Your naivete is admirable but so misguided. <BR> <BR>Name me ONE recent college player who could be a dead-fire lottery pick who has stayed in school for four years. One." <BR> <BR>Lets see.....hmmmmm, just one you say. Very well. How bout this years NBA MVP...none other than four year graduate Tim...

"But are you trying to tell me that March Madness 2004 would sell as many copies if graduating Syracuse senior Kueth Duany was on the cover instead of Carmelo Anthony? <BR> <BR>If so, then I have some oceanfront property in Mongolia to sell you." <BR> <BR>No, not Duany but here´s a list many would r...

PK, <BR> <BR>I seriously doubt EA would lose out on sales if they put a less recognizable athlete on their cover other than Carmelo Anthony. This is EA Sports we´re talking about. People are going to buy the game because it´s freakin EA Sports. Now, you and I are going to be a bit more practical and...

I´m not blaming Melo for leaving college early to pursue his dream. If in the same situation, I would most likely do the same as he given that he´s already been a part of a national championship team. Not to mention he´s above and beyond the skill level of other college players. My main gripe is wit...

Forget that Syracuse won the National Championship or that Carmelo Anthony was an instrumental part in the decisive win. The fact of the matter is he left school after his FRESHMAN year, not his junior or even sophomore year, his FRESHMAN year. That means one thing. He wasn´t in college playing for ...

It´s pretty obvious because ABC and ESPN are affiliated, Berman is going to be on because of his name. That said, it´s painfully obvious that he lives and breathes football and while he is just alright in annoucing baseball games, you know he´d rather be having a pork steak with Mel Kiper than on th...

Well, according to Hiper there´s a demo disk including IP in the new XBM magazine. I think maybe I´ll play that just to be sure it´s to my liking. I like the comparison to the old school baseball games you touched upon. I very much enjoyed "Bases Loaded" on the NES and how fun the fielding aspect wa...

PK, <BR> <BR>Your take on playing IP on All-Star seems to be the overwhelming opinion on single player experience. I re-rented ASB and HH just yesterday and for the life of me could not get into either game the way I did IP. There just seemed to be a lack of substance for one reason or another. I ca...

This is something that I have been wondering about for the past week now. Specifically speaking, I tried the demo @ Gamestop last week and played for about 20 minutes (obviously not enough time to give an accurate review) and truly enjoyed the single player experience. Anyone else feel the same way?

Rick Telander from the CHICAGO SUNTIMES <BR> <BR>"I just took the wrong bat and went up there,´´ he said in the interview room. "I apologize from the bottom of my heart.´´ <BR> <BR>Sosa said he keeps a corked bat to use during batting practice be-cause "I like to put on a show for the fans. I like t...

Now, that the price has dropped to $19.99 I can´t see why I shouldn´t take a chance on this game. From some of the reviews I´ve glanced at, it sure seems to have gotten a lot of praise. However, is that because of its tremendous graphics solely or does it have the longevity of excellent gameplay? Op...
