Burnout Paradise: Cagney Pack Hands-on (IGN)
01:07 AM - July 12, 2008. Posted by hdaniel1. Written by Daniel Hee
IGN has posted their Burnout Paradise: Cagney Pack hands-on preview.

Quote:
"This free update is actually something closer to a patch than a proper content update. There are two new cars with four new liveries and 70 added Freeburn Challenges, but the major updates are things that should have been in the game from the beginning. The three new game modes are Freeburn online versions of things that the offline game already has. The Cagney Pack adds Road Rage, Stunt Run and Marked Man to the list of Freeburn challenges the host can activate at anytime."

IGN has posted their NCAA 09 Play of the Day: 7/11 video.

Quote:
"Speaking of E3, we keep it local to SoCal by discussing USC-UCLA, the "Battle for the Victory Bell". The winner of last year's game gets to keep the bell for a year, painting its carriage in the school's colors. After being upset by their arch-rivals in 2006, USC has the belt back now by virtue of a 24-7 win last year. USC currently holds a 42-28-7 lead in the rivalry."

IGN has posted a article called Five Madden Features We Miss.

Quote:
"20 years of Madden have seen some features, good and bad, come and go with varying levels of fanfare. Some, like the passing cone, have been pushed to the backburner or removed altogether with the support of the majority of the community; other features and in-game happenings, though, are gone and should make their return to the game."

"This year's new feature, Dynamic Skill, measures your ability on the course, raising or lowering your skills across a variety of traits (power, accuracy, short game, and putting) accordingly. While this is an interesting addition, it seems designed to curb the rebellious videogame golfers (like yours truly) from finding ways to cheat the course."

You like the links? Let's talk about it.

Wow, today I made one year at the current place I work at. How time flies.

So the iPhone 3G is going to be sold to the public this Friday at 8 am at your local Apple or AT&T store. It will not surprise me if people tonight are going to be camping out outside of their local Apple store.

I am going to do a wait and see approach. Too bad there is not a Apple or AT&T store in town near my workplace.

Shawn Drotar over at 5W-G, has posted an articled called NBA Live 09: Community Event Recap.

Quote:
"In a refreshing bit of honesty, producer Brian Ullrich noted that NBA Live 08 was not the game they wanted to make; that they made progress, but the limitations of time and manpower made certain trade-offs necessary. The goal for NBA Live 09 was to address and improve those; focusing specifically on the core gameplay."
