A Quick Look At The Updating Of NHL Games For Xbox & Playstation Game Consoles Today
When most people that play games today were young things always seemed so great at the time. The days seemed to go on forever and every sweet you ate was nicer than the last one. You can bet that the only thing that you can seriously say is better now than it was then is NHL games for Xbox & Playstation game consoles. They have just come on so much in the last 30 years since video games have become big.
You don't see any kids these days that could get excited about pushing a little white dot around the screen that is supposed to be a puck.The matchstick men that were supposed to resemble a fully padded out Ice hockey player have gone too. Kids still want to play games that they perceive as fun though.
Not all games have advanced their game play to keep up with the increased ability of the platform they are written for. Lots have relied too much on the game's graphical presentation and not enough on the actual gaming essence. No matter how good something looks, it still has to be great fun to play and that is what games players will look for.
Some of the best games in history were never that good looking but you just had to go back for more. One of the most famous video games ever was built around a ball dodging assailants in a maze and eating other balls on the way. Another very famous title which is still around today was just based on falling blocks that had to be arranged as they dropped.
While both of these games had the very best levels of playability, they really paid little attention to detail with the presentation. The genius that invented either of those really understood what makes people tick. Sadly their talents will be missed but they paved the way forward for sports and action games makers.
So with all the information, the game play and the good presentation in today's NHL titles, it's no surprise that they are as popular as a child with sweets in a playground. Like all games consoles and the sports titles that go with them, the hockey titles have progressed a great deal. Really that has been key to making hockey games that can be played on a games console. They have had to make something that a true hockey professional has put their name to in many cases. So it's not just about making something that looks pretty but is awful or slow to move. On the other hand it is not been a good idea to make something that has been easy to move but looks terrible. So the children of today have had it easy or lucky or whatever they are getting fed up of hearing. But to be fair it's everyone that benefits from NHL games for Xbox & Playstation game consoles especially once the kids are sleeping.

A Short NBA Live Game Overview For PlayStation And Xbox
The following is an NBA Live game review for PlayStation and Xbox. One of EA Sport's most popular PlayStation and Xbox games is NBA Live. Numerous basketball video games are released each year and NBA Live's version seems to always be among the main front runners. The last edition is no different with its user input, animations, and high quality graphics. The last NBA Live version has received positive reviews.
NBA Live 10 has bonus jerseys, a very first for these games. Vintage jerseys from the 80s and 90s were included as well as numerous alternate uniforms for many of NBA teams. Using bonus codes, even more jerseys and throwback shoes can be used. It is questionable if every NBA team will get new game uniforms but two bonus codes have been unlocked so far and more are probably coming. The graphics in this game received a massive overhaul. The game features quicker and smoother animations that allow for maximum play. Items like the lights and courts were designed to look very realistic. It's a bit grainy when enhanced on plasma screens but generally looks extremely well.
The players, the background, and other smaller graphics are also more detailed. This year's game has a more realistic background, unlike the previous installments. Crowd members were designed to look and sound more lifelike and real. The players themselves were made with more personal and exact details such as personal accessories, hairstyles, and tattoos. The stars in this year's edition were made to be easily recognizable than previous ones.
The controls of the game were slightly altered so that controlling the individual players 100 percent of the time isn't necessary. This auto mode can sometimes result in more turnovers during game play though. It is possible for the control over the players to be expanded if you want to though.
Game play on this year's NBA Live was made simple enough so that even someone who has never played any basketball video games will still be able to get the hang of it. Actions like passing and shooting are single button functions. Both of the PlayStation and Xbox use the main joy stick on the controllers to move the players around. It is simple to play defense as well, just position one of the basketball players in front of one from the opposing team will result in the sim automatically doing the rest. The revamp of the players' DNA from previous versions has largely improved too. The last edition's DNA will update each NBA player's abilities and attitudes nearly instantly. This latest version will also let players to compete in real games nearly as they occur in real time. And with the NBA's rosters and change ups updating immediately inside the game, it means for a much better Dynasty Mode too.
The soundtrack was updated and revamped for this version to include more current bands and artists. There are more songs this year and that cuts down drastically on the music's redundancy during the game and training mode. They were programmed to change and react to the beat of the games.

FIFA Soccer Games For XBox And Playstation - The Changes And Alterations
Football games are not exactly few and far between and they are all very similar in nature. However, the ultimate enjoyment of the game is dependent on the sum of its parts and in some cases, players will likely get more enjoyment from some features than others. The FIFA soccer games for XBox and Playstation are considered the absolute prime of football games. They have the bonus of not only having an official license from the world governing body of football, but they also feature many exclusively-licensed leagues and teams that no other game has. Published and and developed annually by Electronic Arts, the series begin in 1993, but the greatest gameplay was achieved with the later games.
2006 - FIFA 07
The first FIFA Xbox 360 game, it was an iteration of refinement. The team count was lowered in order to increase the focus on the remaining four leagues, as well as the additional national teams. The crowd also saw several improvements as it can now respond to the game's events, as well as it being local to the region. Also, there may be pockets of the crowd that are away support and will react accordingly. These crowd changes bring a lot more life into the games and have been met with a positive reaction by the players.
2007 - FIFA 08
'Be a Pro Mode' has been improved since the previous games as it now allows the user to play a single player, rather than having the ability to swap between any of the team. Additionally, the multiplayer aspects of the game have been improved, such as allowing online cooperative play and interactive leagues between players. This means players can choose a league and team to play against a real opponent and also includes trick moves, a bonus over previous iterations of this mode. FIFA 08 also saw an overall decrease in speed throughout the game.
FIFA 09
Containing perhaps the largest assortment of improvements from any of the FIFA games, this one contains hundreds, according to the game's producer. An addition to the gameplay is the responsiveness refinement, which allows for an increased measure of control over the ball and a new collision system that takes into account the speed, weight and power of the two players that collide. The goalkeeper has also seen its own improvement as they now utilize better positioning, recovery and reactions.
The weather has also seen its own overhaul as it now allows snow and rain matches in Kick-Off mode. Furthermore, depending on the stadium, night, dusk and day matches can be played. Manager mode does not feature the weather changes.
FIFA 10
The latest in the franchise, FIFA 10 brings about many new additions to the Manager Mode that many players have welcomed. A new Assistant Manager can sort out your team for you while you focus on the the larger gameplay. Furthermore, sponsors are less important, while the club's board of directors are more so, due to their ability to dish out whatever wages they feel your team deserves. The Auto-Resolve option for matches now takes into account the team's overall strength, rather than randomly choosing a winner.

Joe Cole interview with Rivalspot: He's the best I've faced
Ask Joe Cole about his battles on the soccer field and you will get answers that invoke memories of famous clashes between English soccer powers.
“It’s always very competitive,” says Cole. “You take intense guys and let them play and that's what happens.”
But rather than say, Chelsea vs. Manchester United or Liverpool vs. Arsenal, Cole isn’t talking about any sort of real-life action on the pitch. Instead, Liverpool’s newest midfielder is referring to heated games of virtual soccer on the Xbox 360 and the Playstation 3.
"Oh yeah," laughs Cole. "We get pretty into it."
Born during the rise of Nintendo and Sega in the 1980s, the 28-year old from London grew up during the perfect time to pick up video games. And like many from that generation, he did just that.
“I’ve been playing since I was a kid,” says Cole, who signed with the Reds this summer. “Especially the sports games, since they are the most competitive.”
That competitive spirit has brought Cole north to Liverpool this season, following five seasons with West Ham United and almost 300 appearances with Chelsea, where he won three Premier League titles and two FA Cups.
Now, after watching the Reds struggle to a seventh-place finish in 2009, he is ready for the challenge of lifting Liverpool back to elite status.
“I wouldn’t have come here if I didn’t believe we were capable of achieving something great,” says Cole of his new home, “I’ve always admired Liverpool as a club and it was time for a change in my career.”
His play on the pitch won’t be the only challenge facing Cole as he prepares for his first season at Anfield. As a video game junkie, he’s also set to take his gaming habits to the screen.
“I’m sure we’ll have at least a few games,” says Cole of challenging his new teammates. “I’m looking forward to seeing who’s the top guy.”
This is nothing new for Cole, who made a habit of playing FIFA and Pro Evolution Soccer tournaments with teammates at Chelsea, while facing off with various members of the England national team.
“It’s a great social thing to do while you’re travelling and living in hotel rooms,” he says. “Someone’s always got a Playstation or an Xbox.”
Cole is personally addicted to both soccer games and, surprisingly, to the boxing titles as well.
“I’ve always enjoyed boxing,” he says, “and it’s crazy having fighters from different eras in Fight Night. I love having someone like Mike Tyson facing Mohammed Ali or Sugar Ray Leonard fighting Ricky Hatton.”
And Cole says he fares better with the boxing titles than with the football games, allowing him to get just a little bit more ambitious.
“I usually win at the boxing and lose at the football,” laughs Cole, “so I only put down wagers with my friends on something like Fight Night.”
When it comes to the soccer titles, though, there has still been plenty of excitement between men more famous for scoring goals on the real-life pitch than on the screen.
“I used to get in heated games with JT (John Terry) because he’s a very competitive player,” says Cole, who then joked that Terry might not be fond of his pick as the best gamer on the English team.
“I think JT would claim he’s the best and he’s very good, but it has to be Shaun Wright-Phillips,” he laughs.
“(Wright-Phillips) is incredible at any game you want to play and you rarely see him without a pad (controller) in his hand, wherever you are, travelling around the world. Practice makes perfect and I hate saying it, but he’s the best.”
As for the upcoming season, Cole will find himself in a promising situation after making the move to Liverpool. Having been presented with the opportunity to play behind superstar striker Fernando Torres, he couldn’t be more excited about his new role.
“I’ve watched and admired Fernando for many years,” says Cole, “and it’s the job of Steven (Gerrard) and me to create as many chances for him as possible.”
Much like a video game character, Torres has thrilled crowds with electrifying goals that don’t quite seem possible, and has Cole salivating at the possibilities for 2010.
“We’re one of the few clubs with a player capable of scoring 30-plus times,” says Cole, “and if he can do that, anything can happen for the club.”
As far as his character in video games, Cole is still tickled to see himself there after many years of FIFA and Pro Ev.
“It’s a funny feeling,” he says of seeing himself on the screen, “but it’s great.”
And asked about his managerial strategy with past teams like Chelsea and England, Cole jokingly admits to a touch of personal bias
“If your morale or fitness isn’t good, it’s still very difficult to drop yourself from the lineup,” he says. “You don’t want to leave yourself out.”
Of course, the ultra-competitive Cole also strays from playing with his real-life teams, wanting the upper hand in talent when he takes to the virtual pitch.
“If you’re playing for a wager, you want the best team,” he says, preferring Barcelona and Spain when he has first choice.
“They’re the easiest to play with,” says Cole of those squads. “You have wingers like Messi and Iniesta and they move the ball really well. I think most people would choose them.”
Cole’s personal playing style certainly works well with either of his favorite teams, as he fashions himself as a “dribbler” in both FIFA and Pro Ev.
“You get some players who pass a lot, but I like to get the ball out wide to the wingers and get crosses into the box,” he says. “That’s the great part about these games, is that everyone plays a different style.”
And being a professional soccer player, Cole’s knowledge of the game is clearly beyond the average fan. Asked about the relationship between real-life matches and an increasingly realistic game of FIFA, he agrees it can be a strong asset.
“You have to set proper formations and know what your team likes to do,” he explains. “If you’re playing with a team that likes to play the long ball you have to use that strategy, and if they like to play short passes, that’s the way to be successful.”
There is plenty of soccer ahead in Cole’s near future, both on the pitch at Anfield and on his widescreen television, as Liverpool’s newest star gets set to tackle his list of challenges that includes turning around the squad and raising a young family in a new town.
“It’s new and exciting,” says Cole of moving his wife and baby daughter, “we’re all getting settled and finding our feet.”
And as for his work on the pitch, the Reds midfielder can’t wait to get started.
“I’m sure given time to settle in,” says Cole, “we can be a great fit, Liverpool and myself.”
Just leave him some time to play his video games at Rivalspot, ok?
