OT: Half off prices at EA's online store
If you like sports video games or any other type of games. EA is offering 50% off most games and free shipping. Offer lasts until 7PM tonight. I just bought NHL 11 and Need for Speed:Hot pursuit. So if you still don't have NCAA 11, go get it!

I'd like to, but along with the price, they need to slash Tebow off the cover for me to buy.
January 20th, 2011 at 3:57 PM ^
easy to fix.
January 20th, 2011 at 5:23 PM ^
Would be nice if Denard had dreads in the game too.
January 20th, 2011 at 5:52 PM ^
There's a lawsuit pending against EA and the NCAA about that. Not about Denard in particular, but about using players' likenesses without compensating them or seeking their permission.
January 20th, 2011 at 6:31 PM ^
But I thought they went around that by naming the player QB # 16 instead of Denard Robinson.
January 20th, 2011 at 6:56 PM ^
QB #16 is one of the ways they get around that. The dreads are not a way around that. They don't have dreads because the game developers don't wan't to start over and create new player models. The ones they started with were bald. that is why you never see a person without his helmet off. And why you only get a few generic faces.
January 20th, 2011 at 8:09 PM ^
I have always thought it was shitty that the kids made nothing off their likenesses
January 20th, 2011 at 3:47 PM ^
They need to bring back the PC Version.
January 20th, 2011 at 3:53 PM ^
agreed, but they won't cause of all the pirating..
Even though i just heard they finally figured out how to hack ps3 games and burn them
January 20th, 2011 at 4:00 PM ^
The death of PC gaming has nothing at all to do with piracy.
January 20th, 2011 at 5:22 PM ^
death of pc gaming? PC gaming isn't dead dude lol..
the biggest issue was licensing with the NCAA etc.. from what i read a while back. The pirating still doesn't help the cause.
January 20th, 2011 at 5:35 PM ^
Won't happen unfortunately
The big money is in the consoles
January 20th, 2011 at 7:15 PM ^
A Fuck'n men. (not gay)
Living in Asia, that is the only type of gaming. PC gaming is only dead in the states - elsewhere it is often the primary method of gaming.

NFS HP is a sweeeeeet game.
January 20th, 2011 at 4:05 PM ^
Awesome racing game. I got it right when it came out, full price, no regrets.
Get it
January 20th, 2011 at 5:14 PM ^
I got it for Christmas and have played the crap out of that game.
January 20th, 2011 at 4:00 PM ^
Oh...not that EA. Carry on.
January 20th, 2011 at 4:03 PM ^
Thanks for posting this. I just ordered NBA Jam for XBOX. Good looking out for your fellow mgobloggers.
January 20th, 2011 at 4:06 PM ^
for posting this.
January 20th, 2011 at 4:11 PM ^
I hate to sound preachy (too late), but you'd be amazed at how much more you will accomplish in life if you cut out something as addictive and time consuming as video games.
<br>
<br>They're fun, sure, but at the end of your 3-5 hour binge, what do you have to show for it? *knowingly invites clever response*
January 20th, 2011 at 4:15 PM ^
You're just jealousof my 2.12 kill/death ratio in Black Ops.
January 20th, 2011 at 4:49 PM ^
For some people it's video games for others it's quilting, playing the piano, etc.
It's a stress release for a lot of people and you can't be productive 24/7/365.
January 20th, 2011 at 5:19 PM ^
Gotta get those achievements man, can't be looking like a fool with a weak gamerscore. That and the satisfaction of beating someone playing as Alabama with a 77 yard double lateral from Shaw to Molk to Omameh as the clock expires.
January 20th, 2011 at 7:18 PM ^
as opposed to mgoblog which literally swells your brain with improvement. Don't neg me, I'm being 100% serious.
January 20th, 2011 at 7:19 PM ^
Yeah, how dare people have hobbies. The nerve!
January 20th, 2011 at 4:12 PM ^
I am training for a marathon and this just entices me to spend my February nights at home playing a sports game instead of running. So difficult to say no.
January 20th, 2011 at 4:16 PM ^
So glad that I log onto Mgoblog multiple times per day.
January 20th, 2011 at 4:17 PM ^
I was amazed to see this but I bought myself an early bday present. Hello Madden 11. I can finally continue my road to glory/ NFL superstar with a guy I regret making (dee hart)
January 20th, 2011 at 4:17 PM ^
Thanks man picked up army of two for me and my friends to play. Can't beat 10 dollars.
January 20th, 2011 at 4:24 PM ^
I cant start a new thread, but since this one is about discounts, if anyone wants pistons tickets, they have some pretty good deals today on groupon.
January 20th, 2011 at 4:44 PM ^
Thanks man, now I have something to do when I'm not playing GT5 (or checking MGoBlog)
January 20th, 2011 at 4:45 PM ^
You can find a lot of deals on X-Box live for game add-ons. I purchased some arcade games along with the really expensive DA: Origins expansion packs.
January 20th, 2011 at 4:46 PM ^
I am pretty loyal to EA sports games and have bought them for years upon years, that being said, the Nba live CAN NOT even come close to nba2k11, EA is really gunna have to put in some work if they wanna get on this level
January 20th, 2011 at 6:18 PM ^
They were planning on releasing NBA Elite with Kevin Durant on the cover as their "new" version of Live to compete with NBA 2K but they scrapped the game a few months before release to focus on next year. Probably for the best.
January 20th, 2011 at 5:03 PM ^
whooooo! Thanks EA for helping out my wallet!
January 20th, 2011 at 5:27 PM ^
FIFA '11 doesn't have Ghana, so I'm pissed at them. Just bought Ncaa 11 and Madden 11!!!!
January 20th, 2011 at 5:08 PM ^
First time I have bought an NCAA game since 2007. I just started to play 07 again this week and decided that I might as well get the new one.
January 20th, 2011 at 7:21 PM ^
you mean you never had to go through the RR years?
January 20th, 2011 at 5:46 PM ^
I am pissed about Fifa not having Ghana as well.
January 20th, 2011 at 6:09 PM ^
I created an account just so I could say thanks for the heads up about the sale.
January 20th, 2011 at 6:54 PM ^
I just picked up a few, nice deal.
January 20th, 2011 at 8:07 PM ^
is quite possibly the worst football game i have ever played, Ncaa on the other hand i can play for hours on end day after day
January 20th, 2011 at 8:12 PM ^
I think Madden 10 sucked, but 11 is great. Ncaa is fun, but it got old for me (after 4 months). Now I play black ops. and some madden
