The Blog for the Sports Gamer Three guys who love Sports Gaming rant and rave about various stuff.

Monday night notes

- Let's start the post out with the best deals of the week (that I've seen thus far...)

New Play Control: Pikmin is $4.99 after a $10 reward zone coupon from Best Buy.  Picked it up without any issues today.  Also, Chronicles of Riddick for the PS3 and 360 is $9.99 after a $20 coupon.

Pikmin has me excited though, as I loved the game on the Gamecube and would like a chance to play it again with this new control style.

- In the bigger sports gaming news of the day ESPN, of all places, breaks the news that EA Sports is looking to re-introduce NBA Jam on the Nintendo Wii in the very near future.

Can't say I will complain about that game coming back onto consoles.

- As for more EA Sports news, they will be closing down a ton of servers for their older sports titles on February 2nd.

Surprised to see Madden 09's online component shut down that soon...

- Oh, and it had to be something...... it was the turf that hurt Wes Welker.

- Lastly in EA Sports news, according to Peter Moore's blog, they will be continuing their relationship with Tiger Woods, in so far as their online PC game.

I've had a chance to play around with the game in the past few months and have found it to be a very solid title, especially for a beta.   I really don't know what to say about the Tiger Woods side of the story.  I just don't have much to add to all of the goings on there.

- Time to sit back and watch the rest of the TCU/Boise State game.  Have a great night all!
