Mini Reviews:
Madden 07 – Hall of Fame Edition (PS2) – The only NFL licensed game – A solid football game that is packed with tons of features. There is some much to this game that I dont think I can cover them all. Franchise mode for up to 30 season’s – each week has major break downs and practices – hall of fame mode – play now – online – mini camps –
The games overall feel is almost the same as the 2005 offering. The play books are basically the same from 2004. I have now purchased 2 collector editions in the past 2 years. This game is fantastic but to vetrans of the Madden franchise it will feel very familiar.
Infected (PSP) – Action 3rd person shooter. Fast paced action witha focus on combo kills. You are dual wielding a weapon and a viral gun. YOu need to take down the infecteds heallth iwth the weapon then cause them to explode with the viral gun. You can chain multiple zombie explosions together. The multi-player is unique, the winner infects the losers system with their avatar. Th loser can be cured of infection by either spreading the infection to 3 other systems or beating the last 3 stages of the game on a super hard mode (where all zombies are the winners avatar).
