The process has already begun. The PC-ization of console gaming began with this past generation with the advent of patching games via XBL or PSN. Now we're slowly seeing more and more of the old PC standards creep into games such as expansion packs and the like.
In my opinion, PC gaming in the early part of this decade was about as close to gaming bliss as you can get, and we are seeing consoles emulate that. Little Big Planet already encourages users to create content, ... Read More

Why do all wrestling games insist on making themselves 'fighting' games when everyone knows that the 'sport' is a form of entertainment. Don't get me wrong, I'm not here to bash wrestling with that comment, I love wrestling.
However, the games are pretty terrible today.
Here is my initial idea to improve wrestling games: make them like wrestling. You can include a lot of the same elements as today's wrestling games, but ... Read More

I'm taking a break from sports gaming today only because I find this so fascinating since all I hear from people who do not like baseball is that they think the games are too long.However, the facts tell a different story. The average MLB Game is roughly 2 hours 50 minutes long while the average NFL game is around 3 hours 7 minutes long.
Furthermore, the action in an NFL game is constrained to as little as 12 minutes while in baseball the ball is almost always in play. ... Read More

Don't get me wrong, there are glitches out there and people do exploit them and it should drive you batty. But I'm beginning to see a trend among 'sim' gamers that whenever they play someone online that doesn't fit exactly into how a team is 'supposed' to play, they ... Read More

You are locked into a tight battle with an opponent online in a sports game (we're being vague here on purpose to not name names) when suddenly he decides to pull out the cheese or start exploiting a glitch. The game ends in a blowout.
The end result of this unfortunate encounter is a busted up controller from you as well as your dog hiding underneath the bed because of the expletives you have just filled the room with.
Maybe your results aren't ... Read More

One year is not nearly enough time to create an excellent sports game in this generation of consoles.
My evidence? Just look around, have there been any sports games which have gone from terrible to great in a single year? How many hits on the PS3 and XBox 360 had a one year development cycle? Games are simply too complex ... Read More

The hype is growing so big right now that the developers at EA Tiburon are going to have to deliver the absolute best Madden game in a long time. Anything less will be seen as a massive disappointment by everyone involved.
EA has basically gotten their wish, people are believing again. If they don't deliver, this ... Read More

Then a call comes in from the other room.
"Honey, we need to run to Home Depot."
Game over. At least that's how it has usually been with most sports games in history. But developers are catching onto a cool trend that um, should have been in games a long time ago.
In-Game saves.

My first issue?
What's up with stadiums always being filled to capacity in most next-gen sports games? Why can't we have realistic dynamic attendance?
It bugs me, I really want to know ... Read More

When you take into account I have had to study for midterms and make a move back home for Spring Break...I have had less than ideal time for gaming. So I'm personally shocked that I have played the game this much.
A few things I wished I could've talked about in the review ... Read More

That is a question that was recently posed to me and as I started to look, I began to draw a few conclusions of my own. Why aren't there more boxing games? Here are a two very good, practical, and very related reasons I could come up with:
1)The sport itself is in a ... Read More
