looks nice. I've all but given up on NBA games now. I think them, NFL and MLB, they're by far the least realistic in actually playing the game. At least has been my experience. NFL is pretty solid. MLB is tough to screw up. NBA games, I feel like the offense never runs well at all,a nd they always seem to break into just going one on one to score(in before someone says that's all the NBA does). The motion of teammates has always seemed really clunky, stiff. Just hate them. It could be my experience. Maybe others have great success running an offense through them, but it's always been damn near impossible, and I've never heard anybody out of friends, etc. disagree.

Not sure I could argue that NBA games are more realistic than other sports games, but NBA 2k has impressed the hell out of me over the years. I've found that if you go one on one in any of the recent versions you're going to get wailed on by the CPU if you have it on any kind of respectable difficulty level. I've been playing 2k12 on all-star mode for the most part and I have to run plays if I want to score in the half court with any efficiency.
 
Before COD4 I never played video games. No game held my interest for very long. Before this game, the last time I played video games was when I was a kid (N64 - Golden eye) -- For me, nothing comes close to the Call Of Duty franchise.
 
Sports games only for this guy. I'll whoop you nerds up at some 2K.
 
Has anyone seen any Blazer player ratings for 2k13 yet? Some of the ratings are particularly bad so far, including the Lakers, Melo at 92, as well as most of the other Knicks, and Nets like Joe Johnson at 85 and Gerald Wallace still in the 80s.
 
Has anyone seen the new Fifa ad for XBox? I'm pretty sure I heard (it was on in the background while I was working) that there is VOICE control. I can imagine playing now. Just screaming SHOOOOOT SHOOOOT SHOOOOT at the screen. Fifa has come a long ways from the 96/97 versions i had for SNES. If I had an Xbox I'd probably pick it up.

Anyone play Fifa on Wii? I never play the Wii, but it might get some more use if I had Fifa (and if that version is any good).

I think that I read the voice commands on Kinect had more to do with Tactics, and substitutions, and things like that.
 
I've been playing games less and less lately, but I do look forward to NBA2K, Metro: Last Light and I've been thinking about trying ARMA III. I just bought NCAA football for PS3 but have only played a few games so far. Gone are the days of playing a full season in 2 days though.
 
haha! good thing I scrolled to the end before I responded to the first post.

There's a free FIFA 13 demo available on Xbox Live. You can play 6 minute games with 5 teams to choose from. It's pretty nice.

yeah I'm loving the demo so far. Cant wait for the full game!
 
I had no idea so many people liked the Fifa games. You guy should try Football Manager.



Looks very boring to me though.
 
On a side note, the other day I decided to sit down and watch "transformers" (the cartoon). I liked it when I was a kid, but really haven't watched it since I was probably 9 or 10.

It was probably the most difficult 30 minutes of my life.

The most difficult 30 minutes of your life, sounds like you live such a rough life. I can understand not liking video games, but it's rather funny you can call someone a loser because they're passionate about something you don't enjoy. Same thing can be said about you or I being passionate about Basketball, or spending a lot of time on sports forum with 10k-20k posts. We must have a ton of losers at work here because we talk about Football or Basketball all week, go home open a beer, watch games and enjoy watching football all weekend.

Now those quitting high school in the attempt to join "esports" I just don't get. But gamers who can hold a job/school and love to play games may be nerdy, but aren't a loser in my book. And as far as being a nerd, it could be worse, you could be HCP.
 
This game is a lot of fun too if you aren't sick of WW2 games

It also has a cool looking expansion coming out based on the Pacific Theater.

Lol, Damian Lillard is only rated a 70 in the new 2k. I realize the ratings will change if he plays well, but he is at least 4 or so below what he should be, it really sucks seeing more popular players get rated higher simply due to that.

How is he low?
 
Maybe not low, but i believe Soup Waiter is rated higher than him, i guess i just have a problem with how bad most of the ratings are in general.

What is his juggling rated at?
 
His juggling is a 99, with as westnob said his signature move is Tomato Bisque, they really got it wrong!

That's it I'm buying Live 2013. They've always had hyper-realistic ratings.
 
FIFA 13 IS HERE!!! Goodbye Outside World.... Hello Morbid Obesity!
 
SO.... GOOD.... 3 goals with Suarez #liverpool #uruguay
This post is offensive.


I tried the demo and it felt just like 12 except for the camerawork. Is it that much better?
