I'm going to miss seeing these each week! Great stuff, Kev.

Privately, you'd have to think this will light a fire under the Live team, as if people think Wang did all the work in Live 10.

I'm leery of heaping credit (or blame) on one singular dev and that seems to be what is happening in the hardcore community, similarly to Ben Brinkman re: baseball in 2006. Wang is a great dev, but he's still part of a team. People need not forget that in the last two years, Live made huge strides - but they did a have a hole to get out from. Wang was not there for the majority of the 09 cycle and that's when the swing started.

I'd hope Wang tried to help change the culture he criticizes in these numerous interviews. Going from 2K with a couple hundred employees to EA with thousands of employees, he should have known there'd be more levels and red tape when it came to the dev process. That shouldn't surprise anybody.

I'd add in Colt McCoy and Toby Gerhart as potential candidates as well. Should they add coaches in, Bobby Bowden and maybe even Urban Meyer could be sleeper picks.

BTW - It's "Ndamukong". ;)

I hadn't heard of this before. Pretty silly move by studios IMO.

This weekend I noticed the very generic game placeholders for NCAA Football 2011 and Madden 2011 at ebgames.com, but didn't find anything for a golf title. I wonder if they were told to hold off on that until an announcement was made on what direction they will go.

Are PlayStation Home jerseys set to follow? Better late than never, I suppose.

It's out in the PlayStation Store as well. Came out yesterday.

I really enjoyed the first half of 28 Days Later, but hated the second half of it. It seems people either love or hate it, but I fall on the dislike side.

Good list though. Personally, I'm a big fan of the original SAW. Pretty good horror flick with gore, suspense, and a pretty well thought out plot. The rest of the franchise has been forgettable, but that first one is a classic IMO. I also like the remake of Dawn of the Dead. Gory, suspenseful, but also some funny moments to lighten things up.

They added in the motion offenses and are using the Live engine, so there's been gameplay adjustments. They just haven't gone through the laundry list of the "over 100" gameplay enhancements yet.

I haven't read it, but the show is based on the book by Robert J. Sawyer. Worst case scenario, people may have to get their fill that way.
