The PS3 version of Monster Madness releases in America and the developers are keen to suggest that it's far better than the mediocre offering that was made to 360 players. 1Up had a look at it earlier this year and saw improvements, but there's still no telling whether it's actually good or not. Be sure to check out the demo on the PSN store before spending any money. Here's the full release list:"
US Games
* Monster Madness: Grave Danger
EU Games
No new releases
Asian Games
* NBA 2K8
2K Sports has released a few codes to unlock All-Star uniforms, a 2K Sports Team, and ABA Ball, among other things, DailyGame.net is reporting.
IGN: NBA 2K8 has now been updated to address the flurry of trades and roster moves that have enveloped the NBA over the last six weeks. Starting with the Pau Gasol trade and culminating with the moves made at the trade deadline, the changes allow users to accurately play out the rest of the NBA season with stars like Shaquille O'Neal, Jason Kidd, and Mike Bibby in their new homes.
The update does not address post-trade deadline moves, such as Sam Cassell's buyout by the Clippers and acquisition by the Celtics.
that right there makes me want to buy sport games made by 2k updating the roster is something all sports games should be doing (for free) i think i might buy the game now to show my support. And yet another reason that EA can stick it where the sun dont shine
however i think ea's updates are constant,almost weekly whereas 2k8's last update was back in november........nk8 is a much better game though. i took live back and swapped it over for 2k8
I'll be getting this Day1
is it me or did the graphics improve slighlty.....man this game just gets better and better.......i still dont understand how people buy NBA live....i mean everyone in this game moves like they would in real life....in live they move like really stiff stick figures....this needs to be made known 2k deserves more sales than its been generating.
wow the game is looking awesome they kinda change the running style like the one in 2k5 and player models looks realistic, live 08 sucks at making body features they made gilbert arenas looks so thin in the demo and most of the players too. and yah live 08 animation is improving but 2ksport is already 3 times better animation since 2k6 they just started so i gotta preorder 2k8
Transition between animations are not as good as Live, this game has strange gittery transitional animations(Moves like Lara Croft on PS2 rail systems) The player Momentum isn't as smooth or real as Live in transition from fast break to slow etc. Wish the person playing would have shown off some player animations handling the ball.
TOP Video 3 quarters of the way through theres no excuse for that.
Pay attention around 53 seconds through.
The graphics look better. But the gameplay looks amazing and a tweaked Association mode has me sold though. Cheers to 2K for focusing on gameplay and not the material aspects of the game as allways. EA yall have your work cut out for you judging by the demo. Good Luck.
