  • Why Is Patrick Stewart Amazing? He Can Give Me Goosbumps Over FIFA 14

    Soccer is the most popular sport in the world for a reason, but I am thinking that if Patrick Stewart narrated every video involving it that there would be a hell of a lot more adopters. Hell, Capt. Picard makes me want to play this damn game just because of this video. I wish he would take paying jobs to narrate people’s days.

    “He wakes up feeling lonely and cold. Yet, he realizes that when he heads out into the vast world just beyond his door that his feelings will quickly change, for everyday is a new adventure, a journey that is wrapped inside of a single day. There is nothing more important than the realization that there is only one you and you can change…everything…everyday.”

    And that’s just waking up in the morning!

    Also, Microsoft announced that everyone that pre-orders an [amazon_link id=”B00CMQTVMI” target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]Xbox One[/amazon_link] in Europe will get a copy of [amazon_link id=”B00CX7FMDS” target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]FIFA 14[/amazon_link] for free. Of course, that helps us here in America as much as putting on socks to walk on glass.

    Gamestop is actually offering a pretty good deal when it comes to upgrading your games to the [amazon_link id=”B00CMQTVMI” target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]Xbox One[/amazon_link] this fall. The retailer will guarantee you a $50 trade-in credit on certain games when they are bought within 30 days of release. Effectively this makes an upgrade to an Xbox One copy of the game only $10. You must be a Power Up Rewards member to take advantage of this deal.

    Here is the list of games eligible:

    -Assassin’s Creed IV

    -Battlefield 4

    -Call of Duty: Ghosts

    -FIFA 14

    -Madden NFL 25

  • EA Sports Next-Gen Trailer Round-Up

    Yeah, so instead of posting separate articles about these I am just going to save the time and put them all here.

    Madden NFL 25

    The 25th anniversary title for Madden will be a launch title and while it may look full of pretty, I think we all know from EA’s track record that it will be stripped of features available in the current-gen versions. The “Madden rule” for next gen consoles. Wait for the third game.

    NBA Live 14

    I have always been a fan of the NBA Live series over NBA 2K (but even I can’t accept the last few Live games). Here is hoping EA can actually get this game to a finished product because if it sees one more setback, EA should just consider their NBA franchise dead.

    FIFA 14

    If there is one franchise EA has to take care of, it is FIFA. It is the biggest selling game in their sports library and they always have to look over their shoulder to make sure they are still ahead of Pro Evolution Soccer.

    UFC

    Despite THQ’s woes, their UFC games were very fun and always impressive looking. Now EA looks to bring the feel of the Octagon to their UFC franchise. They had a good start with their own EA Sports MMA a few years back so let’s hope they can have good momentum going into the first game with UFC.
