Wednesday notes

- EA Sports has announced a Madden NFL Arcade title for PSN and Live Arcade.  Here's the lowdown from their press release.   Dan liked the NHL Arcade title that they put out earlier, so it might not be bad.  The $15 price point is a bit of a stickler for me... but to each their own.

- Wow, what a slow sports night last night.  Only 3 NHL games and 1 college football game.  Whew....

- I played a bit of NBA Live 10 last night and wasn't all that thrilled with it.  The gameplay is a good deal simpler than the NBA 2K series, and that can be a plus, but the game just seemed... wrong.  I was having a hard time putting my finger on it, but the players seemed to be floating on the floor at times.  I also lost track of how many times I would be running down the court trying to put up a quick 3 and my player would always stop with both feet on the line. It was just odd that it happened so many times.

I did like the presentation aspects of the game though.  Michael Redd was having a good game and they kept pointing out how well he was doing and tracked his stats very well.

The game doesn't really compare as well to the 2K series though.  They're getting closer, but it's just not there yet.

- I'm heading out to the stores to pick up a few titles in the Buy 2 get 1 free deal.  Still not sure which I'll get yet... but I might just end up picking up a title to swap for another later.

- Hmm... anything else going on that I'm missing?
