NCAA Football 12 Patch

ncaa football 12 patch

It looks like another patch will be coming out for NCAA Football 12.  The patch will address the “transfer failed” problem that has caused lots of online dynasties to completely give up on the game.  Apparently, the issue has been identified and the guys over at EA Sports are working on fixing it and putting out a patch soon.  The timing is a little off since the college football season ended earlier this week meaning that the amount of people still playing NCAA Football 12 will start to drop off significantly.

For those of you that are hardcore NCAA Football fans, this is great news although very late.  If they are able to fix the problem now, EA Sports will be able to focus their efforts on other things for next year’s NCAA Football 13 game.  Is there anything else that you hope will be addressed in this patch?  Let us know in the comments section.

UFC Undisputed 3 Gameplay

UFC Undisputed 3’s THQ Tank, Nick Robertson, and Wes Bunn go over some of the new features in their upcoming game. One of the most notable things seen in the video below is the addition of fighter entrances to UFC 3.  The announcers, Joe Rogan and Mike Goldberg, give you some some insight into each fighter’s history and strengths so that novices can have a better idea about their fighter and their opponent’s fighter.  Another cool feature is the brand new submission system which looks to be a huge improvement from the last UFC game.  At the end of each fight, you will see a fight metric report which goes over exactly why you were beat or how you dominated you opponent.

Top 5 Madden 12 Players Under 60 Overall

Every year there are players who can make a huge impact in Madden that get overlooked simply because they have a low overall rating. Today we are breaking down the top 5 players with ratings below 60 overall in Madden 12.

Every year there are players who can make a huge impact in Madden that get overlooked simply because they have a low overall rating.  Today we are breaking down the top 5 players with ratings below 60 overall in Madden 12.  Using these hidden gems will help you improve and win more Madden games.
 
5. Brian Witherspoon (Giants CB 56 overall) – This guy has speed to burn.  The ex-Jacksonville Jaguar return man found his way onto the Giants roster this year as a cornerback and return specialist.  His 97 speed ratings coupled with his 96 acceleration makes him extremely dangerous on a cornerback blitz or on special teams.
 
4. Trindon Holiday (Texans WR 50 overall) – This 5’5″ sensation will keep the defense honest.  When you put him on the field with Andre Johnson, Owen Daniels and Arian Foster, the defense will have to always be aware of the deep ball which opens up the run game and the underneath passes.  You can also use him on kick and punt returns.  Very few others can keep up with his 97 speed and 96 acceleration ratings.
 
3. Da’Rel Scott (Giants RB 58 overall) – Scott provides a great alternative to Ahmad Bradshaw and Brandon Jacobs.  By now you can probably see the common theme in this list is speed and Da’Rel has plenty of that with a 96 rating.  Find a way to get him on the field and you will not be disappointed.
 
2. Dontay Moch (Bengals LOLB 59 overall) – Dontay Moch often gets lost in the Bengals stellar Madden defense.  He is the perfect linebacker to manually control with his 93 jump, 91 speed, and 92 acceleration ratings.  His only significant downfall is the 48 awareness statistic which becomes irrelevant when user controlled.  The man is a monster rushing the quarterback and is one of the best defenders in Madden 12 when used correctly.
 
1. Jameson Konz (Seahawks LE 52 overall) – This defensive end has statistics like a wide receiver: 90 speed, 67 catch, 69 spectacular catch and 96 jump.  You can manually rush him or drop him back into coverage which will lead to confusion from the offense.  Konz is relatively unknown but should be absolutely feared in Madden.
 
Which players do you think should be on this list that were left off?  What incoming rookies do you think will have great stats in next year’s Madden 13 game?

nba 2k12 roster update 9The ninth roster update for NBA 2k12 is now available.  Some of the notable updates include the addition of Andrew Bynum to the Lakers after his suspension and Keith Smart as the Kings coach.  Many of the second round picks that weren’t included in previous updates have now been added to the game.  However, there are still a few rookies missing.  Some players who have been part of their teams the whole season can not yet be used online because they are listed as reserves.

Michael Redd has joined the Phoenix Suns, Mickeal Pietrus has been added to the Boston Celtics, and Jeremy Lin is now on the New York Knicks.  What do you think is missing from this roster update?  Let us know in the comments section.

UFC Undisputed 3 Demo Coming Soon

ufc undisputed 3 demoEarlier today THQ confirmed via their official twitter page that the UFC Undisputed 3 demo will be released on both PSN and XBOX Live later this month.  WWE 12, which THQ released last year, did not let users play a demo before deciding whether they should spend $60 on the game or not.  UFC 3 has been in development for a couple of years so THQ is probably confident that they can put out a great demo and convince some undecided fans to buy.  The UFC Undisputed 3 release date is still set for February 14th in the United States and February 17th in Europe.  We will let you know when we get word on when the demo will drop.

The official soundtrack for MLB 12 The Show has now been released.  There have been some pretty bad soundtrack’s recently for the MLB The Show franchise as well as a lot of sports video games in general.  There are only 10 songs in this year’s soundtrack so if you like the songs you will be quite happy.  If you think the soundtrack is terrible, the good news is that you can use the “My MLB Music” feature to get rid of it.  Check out the soundtrack below and let us know what you think about it.
