Last time i was here it was dragon ball super month. Couldn't get away fast enough, is it over yet?
How long until the Ultimate Team modes become free to play?
it's almost 2018 and i'm still playing ncaa football 14 🙁
We need more videos like this about sports game!!!
You guys separated by that big table, reminds me of that dinner scene in 1989 Batman w/ Bruce & Vicky
I didn’t know this until now, but I really like Kato.
Inb4 where's kim comments.
for what its worth, im a big NBA fan and have bought 2K every year from 2k7-2k16. i skipped 2k17 because they took away the option to buy MyTeam packs with MT forcing you to use VC (aka microtransactions), so once they showed how 2k18 was leaning even more heavy on using VC to unlock everything from packs to upgrades,cosmetics etc…forget it. if they dont change this i'll be skipping 2k19 as well.
Golf Story was the best sports game of 2017.
That wide shot is hilarious, sitting so far apart.
Thanks for not forgetting rocket league 🙂 Winter Festival going strong. how about Ubisoft Steep's new DLC not being included in the Season Pass [I bought] lol like dang man! Anyways can't wait for whatever card games will be in RedDead 2! :):) Peace!
I want to see Madden, NHL and UFC on PC for 2018. I mean what is going on here? Origin is a distant third place in the PC gaming market, people keep asking for these games on PC, EA doesn't listen. I know EA has been making horrible decisions lately but this has been going on for TEN years with NHL. Can you guys speak to this, please pester EA sports again about this? NHL at 144fps, multi-monitor, with mouse support for managing menus in GM mode? drools
When I look at Rocket League and see it's huge success how is EA Sports not following their model, doing crossplay and pushing "Seasonal" style gameplay updates rather than their current business model. This just seems really obvious to me, but yet EA continues to release it's games with the same archaic model from the 90s.
Anyway bottom line for me, if Origin is EA's platforms for games it should have ALL of EA's AAA games.
I must say, it's impressive that I'm seven minutes into this video and there's been no mention of The Show yet. Considering how negative the tone of the show has been, though, I suppose that means San Diego is doing something right.
I dig all your content, a sneaky good channel y'all got here.
Haven't really cared for sports games since 2k5, but I really dig this show. Keep it coming!
Love this!!
Kato's the best. Wish he would do more than just sports stuff, like back in the day when he reviewed Snake Eater. Smart guy.
