Finally Friday!
Lots of news today, so I’ll get right to it:
1. Thanks to Bill Harris for letting the world know a patch has finally been released for MLB2K7 for the 360. Now we know where Ben Brinkman has been all these months!!! Honestly, I have no idea if it makes the game better..maybe I’ll pick up a used copy today and check it out. Or not.
2. Gamerscore Blog has a quick write up on the Madden 08 party held by EA. Click here for the article, but I think this quote says it all…
When I got to the event, I fired up a game of my beloved Seahawks against division rival, St. Louis Rams and tried out the new Weapons feature that I’ve been reading about. I tried a couple plays controlling Walter Jones and used the Pass Blocker Weapon.
Sounds great. No, really. Just like real football. At least 2K made a separate game for bullshit like this. Of course I haven’t tried it yet. Maybe it’s totally rad.
3. Again regarding the Xbox 360, there’s a new trailer (not demo) for NCAA Football 08 if you’re interested.
4. Anyone lining up for the iPhone? I’m thinking about it. Yes, I’m a loser.
5. Nice to see the only way the Yankees can win a game is by making sure the umpires don’t call a game. What a complete load of crap that was and Mora had every right to be pissed. This reminds me of a 1989 game, which I believe was also against the scumbag Yankees (maybe it was the Blue Jays, but I forgot) in which the fog at Memorial Stadium was horrid and the game was not called and in the 9th inning the other team won. It cost the Orioles the AL East crown and I’m still pissed off about that…good thing I never hold grudges, huh?

Dan,
I was at the game last night and everyone was incredulous that the game wasn’t stopped again. There were puddles in the field and you couldn’t see in front of you. I never even saw Jeter’s hit. If you read the quotes in the baltimoresun.com they are very telling.
