Going from FIFA World Cup 2010 back to FIFA 10

So I've been playing FIFA World Cup lately and I've been really loving the smoothness of the gameplay, the quickness of the plays, the responsiveness of the button presses. I really didn't notice all this until I went back to FIFA 10 today.
Playing the World Cup games are alright, but I easily get tired of international football, I needed my Club play back, I needed my Ultimate Team. So today, I loaded up FIFA 10 and oh man, what a difference. The gameplay differences are slight, but they impact the game a lot. I played 5 or 6 games and won only 2 where I would usually win a tournament run on the first try. I quickly got frustrated and turned it off.
Yup FIFA WC 2010 sort of ruined my FIFA 10 Ultimate Team experience ay the moment. I'll keep at it and I'm sure I'll get back on track, but knowing there is better gameplay on another game is killing me!

Soon on the Playstation Store: Cubixx

Laughing Jackal announced on the Playstation blog this week that they will be release Cubixx on the North American PS Store.

Cubixx sold very well in Europe and will try it's luck out here in the North American continent..

"Cubixx takes inspiration from a couple of older games of the same type and tasks the player with using their laser to cut away the surfaces of a mysterious cube and free the energy within. Cutting longer lines and crossing multiple cube surfaces will reward you with larger combos, but at far greater risk.
The game features 20 levels of increasingly lunatic difficulty" explains Al Evans

Cubixx is a fun fast paced retro-style game that will have you fighting for High Score just like in arcade games of the 80's. It releases on June 8th for an awesome price of $3.99

A bit more info is given on the game that will be release on October 26th.
You once again take control of StarKiller, Darth Vader's fugitive apprentice in a story that occurs 6 months after the end of the first game. In the game "Vader is attempting to clone his former apprentice in an attempt to create the Ultimate Sith warrior. The chase is on – Starkiller is in pursuit of Juno and Darth Vader is hunting for Starkiller," according to LucasArts.
Can't wait to get my hands on this on in the fall.

Soon on the Playstation Store: Vibes

 PlayStation Blog announced the release of it musical rhythm Playstaion Mini.
" Vibes, which will release on the PlayStation Store on June 8th at the price of $5.49. Vibes is an action-packed rhythm game that includes a lucky 13 music tracks, covering everything from Classical to J-Pop, to Psychobilly, to Punk. With three levels of difficulty your finger will be well and truly wrecked. ;)
The game is squarely aimed at fans of the rhythm-based genre and has a steep learning curve, so if you think you have conquered Guitar Hero then give this a try. Starting off on the Easy difficulty allows the player to get used to the control mechanism — the difficulty then builds and builds, and will push players to the limit on the harder difficulty settings." -  explains Al Evans // Senior Producer, Laughing Jackal

Here are some of the screenshots of the game.

by the looks of it, it seems to be a compressed version on Gitaroo man. Any fan of music-rhythm games will be sure to enjoy this one.
Vibes is out on June 8th at $5.49.

EA Sports says "Spain to Win World Cup!"

Spain Spain Spain. EA Sports has predicted Spain to be this year's FIFA World Cup champion.
They have Spain winning Group H with 9 points, then getting past C. Ronaldo and Portugal in the Round of 16. Their next match would be with the current World Cup Champions, Italy. This proved to be difficult as it takes a penalty shootout to give the spanish team a 5-4 win after being deadlocked at 1 a piece for 120 minutes.
They then sneak a 2-1 win over Argentina in the semi-finals to gain a spot in the Finals with the samba boys of Brazil. The Spaniards will eventually take down the Brazilians with a score of 3 to 1 to win their first World Cup ever....... Wishful thinking....
