Now that I’m back from an epic month with four long trips in four weeks, I can post again…

- I’m still waiting for a patch to be released for Worldwide Soccer Manager 08, hoping that they’ve fixed some of the major problems with MLS. The beta patch didn’t solve some of the major problems, but I’m hoping that the actual patch does. I’ll write a full review based on the patched version of the game.

- The March Madness 08 demo is bad. Very, very bad. Player physics are unrealistic, rebounds will drop to the floor and be ignored, the game is both too fast and too slow at the same time, etc.

- The College Hoops 2K8 demo is very good. It looks like they’ve put a bit of work into having AI players make the right decisions on offense. This looks to be an excellent title.

- I’ll be writing a few posts later on the passing game in FIFA. Although many reviewers are hailing the game this year, I really think that some of it’s major flaws (especially in the passing game) are being ignored.
