I don't wanna see the Jets in the SB. Nobody wants to endure another Superbowl a la Ravens/Giants back in 01. And that's how it'd look like with the Jets. The only difference is that Sanchez is a better QB than Dilfer...
Colts/Vikings seems to be the better matchup.

6 weeks ago @ pastapadre.com - #4 of 2009: FIFA 10 · 0 replies · 0 points

It should've been number 1 or 2.
I think the game sill has a lot to improve, but what I basically like with FIFA, is that they actually deliver from one year to another. They don't come up short like uh... say... Madden.
I just wish they treated better the numerous licences they own. I think there are still too many players on the game that don't look like their real life counterparts. But when you see how some marquee players used to look like on FIFA 08, and given the increasing number of improved players faces each year, we can expect a better FIFA 11 graphic wise.
One other thing I'd like to see improved, is the shooting. It's still difficult to score long distance goals. Sometimes, you can play games where you feel that you can only score three different kinds of goals. But once again, I'm optimistic as FIFA 10 was way better that 09 in that area.

It's my number 3, mostly because it was a nightmare to go online with MLB...

I'm not an EA apologist nor a 2k fan boy, however the two best sportsgames of the year were made by EA Sports. I'm talking about FIFA 10 and NHL 10.
Madden 10 shouldn't be a top 5. Not because it's a bad game, it's pretty solid. But mostly because, Madden releases are way below expectations year in year out.
In a way, FIFA 10 and NHL 10 are living examples that one needs competition.FIFA used to be an awful franchise. It was such a joke that it reminded the last releases of EA's Triple Play baseball. But Pro Evolution Soccer just flat out killed them during a 5 year span. Ditto with the NHL game. I used to love NHL 2k but they somehow rest on their laurels (in a more dramatic way than the guys working on the NBA 2k games)... Kudos to EA for bouncing back in such manners. Let's hope they can turn things around with Madden.

I don't really see the point. Most national teams' new kits are free DLC for FIFA 10. Sure some teams are missing (North Korea, Ghana and a couple more), but I'll stick to FIFA 10...

See pal, that's the problem. I'm not a fanboy. I'm a sports videogame lover. So I buy what I consider to be the best game. I used to buy Pro Evolution Soccer, but I was so disappointed that I switched back to FiFA.
Even though we can all agree on the fact that 2k10 is not really different from 2k9 and still has some important issues, Live isn't playing in the same balllpark. Period. I got to borrow the game from a friend and play with it and I really didn't enjoy that experience.
Merry Xmas blind fanboy !

NBA Live isn't even a TOP 20...
I still don't get it Pasta. Do you think we will rush to stores to buy our own copy of that underachieving game, just because you praise that game any time you can ?
I enjoy reading your website, but that NBA Live propaganda (I don't call it an EA Sports propaganda) is really annoying.

I love Nba 2k10, but there are two major recurrent flaws that they fail to fix.
a) decent sliders. It takes weeks to find the good ones. It's impossible to play with the default ones, the CPU can shoot up to 60% from the field. Insane...
b) NBA 2k10 is not online friendly. Why do I almost never play online? I can't freaking stand playing with guys who watch their replays on and on and on. Why do I have to put up with it ? This should be illegal... On top of that, the online sliders are awful...

Is it still impossible to export draft classes to NBA Live ?
Why don't they want to implement that option ?
