Farve Is Updated With Jets Uni For Madden ‘09

Being a Bears fan I have to say that I have absolutely no love for Brett Farve, considering how he tortured my team for the better part of 15 years. I wanted that known so as I write this post it’s not a mystery about how I feel about him. When I originally saw the new Madden ’09 cover that had Farve splashed across it, I kinda scratched my head only because usually EA goes after the “Hot” player. Not to say that Farve hasn’t had a hall of fame career, but it’s certainly on the tail end of it. So when the Brett Farve watch ’08 came to a conclusion last week, I was curious how EA was going to handle the “Farve’s a Jet” thing.

Do you recall all the games just to change the box art?

Well it looks like EA has come up with a good solution for those few who care about such things. WhoamItosay is reporting that Wal-Mart will have the new box art in stores by noon tomorrow, while Kotaku says that you can download the art and print it out yourself. So if you like, you can have your new Madden ’09 box art to look completely accurate. I myself couldn’t give a hot squirt of piss what jersey that selfish bastard has on. The only thing I hope he’s wearing this year is a 280 pound linebacker……. as a hat!!!

Want Free iPod Games?

Truth be told, I don’t like paying for things when I know I can get them for free, but who does? I've seen some of the games for the ipod, and there are not many that I would spend money on. But if I can get them for free...... yeah baby!!!

Thanks to slus at the zomgstuff forum I can now play LOST, Tetris and Ms. Pac Man, and not pay a cent for it.

Love is in the air baby!!!

Halo 3 beta has been extended

Were you all exited when you thought that you were going to play the Halo 3 beta into the wee hours of the night, but only to find that downloading problems stopped all the fun?

Well an update to Crackdown on Xbox Live fixed that problem. Problem solved, right? Ahhh....Not so much. This is causing fanboys to weep and suck their thumbs.

This is what you should do to fix that problem.

1. Restart your Xbox 360
2. Boot up the Halo 3 Beta
3. While the Halo 3 Beta is loading, immediately press up on the D-Pad and hold the A button until you see the Bungie logo. If you perform this correctly a dialog box will appear confirming maintenance has been done to your system.
4. Resume the Halo 3 Beta!

Bungie was also nice enough to extend the beta deadline until June 10th at 11:59 PM PDT. So go ahead and frag your little hearts out.

Gears of Golf?

While many gamers eagerly await the next 'Gears of War' installment. The designers of the game have something else in mind.

Epic Games boss Mark Rein has confirmed a spin-off of the game entitled Gears of War Golf. And yeah, he's totally serious.

Rein says “So we got an animator to make a golf swing for Marcus Fenix, and then a programmer took one of the Gears levels and added some mounds and stuff to make a course.” GoW’s grenade launching mechanic was used for the ball, so let’s all hope it reaches the hole safely.
