An NFL season is 16 games plus potentially 3 playoff games for a total of 19, which is one game less than Euro 2008. Additionally there are only 32 teams in the NFL compared to the 52 in Euro. I will be picking this up on Friday as I loved the demo. Not sure why a 20 game season matters if the gamep...

Damn bro, you know I never post but feel compelled to do so. Glad you're ok and glad you got the license plate. If you need anything give me a call.

The price jump is much too great for the masses IMO, which is why the next gen console numbers (at least for the 360) are lower. I see the gaming industry following the same path as the sports card industry did in the early to mid 90's. i used to collect a lot of cards but then prices per pack or bo...

Bro, Berrian's injury was listed as bruised ribs. The more severe injury, however, is Urlacher hurt his foot near the end of the game. No word yet on its severity...Terrible but not shocking loss today for the Bears. Kudos to Miami they played lights out and really prepared well.

Yeah I am going to believe two posters with post counts under fifty, who are posting now.Naah.I will wait for more credible sources. Exactly marino. I'm waiting for bkrich's impressions. We felt the same about Madden 360 last year so I'll trust his opinions. TCrouch's too. I don't know if Terry got...

It's not brickyard related. I've seen him post quite a few times at OS today and yesterday.

I've found with the 360 version that if you can just scramble with your qb and buy you some time, your boys downfield are going to be WIDE OPEN. I just don't feel in control of what's happening on the 360.. Sure it looks great, but it's almost like watching canned animations play the game. Isn't th...

Didn't mean to come across as defensive, G. I was shooting for mildly amusing. :wink: But, I did want to point out that our core racing-rabble-rousers had reasons for not setting up a game night so far. I can deal with tearing -though I don't like it, obviously- but if framerate drops on busy corne...

Terry couldn't be more right. The game feels completely different than Moto GP 3 and now I am forced to re-learn how to race the older tracks. (Which is a good thing). Oh and Web, no need to get defensive. I know who posts here, as I have been lurking regularly since 2003.

I don't normally do impressions but the lethargy regarding this tiltle over here is surprising. No, not everyone has a 360, but this game is one of the best in the series IMO. I have played all of them and as Terry said, the braking is MUCH tougher. I can't tell you how many times I bit it through t...

Scoop/bro Cannibal Corpse? For the metalheads, I've been listening to: In Flames - Come Clarity Himsa - Hail Horror Queensryche - OM2 Evergrey - Monday Morning Apocalypse I can't say I love the new Queensryche after about six listens. I'm convinced they should have named it something else. The album...

Dave, I could not find that option in World Tour. There's only normal and hard modes right? I think on hard mode in World Tour, the AI drives a bit better but I did not notice any chages to the cars handling. Someone please correct me if I am wrong. In my short experience with the game, I tried regu...

The Codies have definately dumbed down the game out of the box. Try racing on pro-sim settings (handling) on hard difficulty and it's a different and wonderful beast. I actually like how the two modes work. World Tour seems to me like a practice session, allowing you to get a taste of the cars. albe...

Gamestop shows "Usually ships within 24 hours." It should be in stores on 2/22.

Jon, Is the Toca 3 demo hidden? i just got the March OXM and it does not appear to be on the disc.

Nice one junior, now ban my ass.

Bro, that's my copy you got. I'm telling mom. Congrats.

That's a shame if that's the direction EA is going. I recently rebought NHL 2004 at EB for $7.99 and can't get enough of it. I still have my Genesis copy of NHL '94 in mint condition so there is no need to purchase the PS2 version of 2006. I wonder why the Xbox owners get screwed out of the "extra" ...

What about Moto GP 3? Isn't that slated to come out soon? I haven't seen it listed at EB or Gamestop though, could be a bad sign.

Then don't read my impressions, I am not forcing anyone to. Or you can read the first paragraph, and if you detect any bias, stop reading.

Fair enough.

Parker, you critiquing Forza is like the devil grading the Bible.

Db, it reminded me of the grip cars in Ridge Racer going through the turns, you apply the brake and the car slides sluggishly. The after race stats are nice and give a mini recap of the race such as who over took who and when, during what lap etc.

Ok, I tried the demo again using a different track and a harder car. The demo is dated Dec '04. While driving it reminded me of the Ridge Racer powerslides through the turns. The car seemed to stick to the road too much. Also you really have to mash on the X button to give it gas, very annoying. Hop...

I will not be picking this up. I played the OPM demo and thought the driving model sucked. The cars felt light and appeared to "run on rails" through the turns. Seemed very arcadish to me, which Midnight Club 3 is filling right now. In fact, I did not need to brake once and routinely hit turns at fu...

Pk, as a devout Catholic myself, I felt the need to come out of "lurk" mode to thank you for your wonderful response. I couldn't have said it/written it better myself. I have been glued to the tv watching all of the coverage and praying. Peace.
