NBA Live 10

Although most people prefer the "2K" series, I'm a huge fan of EA games, so I normally buy NBA Live instead of 2K's. The game improved very much from his successor, the graphics improved (which was already hard), the dribbles are more realistic, and the fouls also. In the 09, I could get LeBron James and dribble the whole other team, but in this one, the players don't have the same easiness. The game even improved in the crowd on the bleachers. They are more exciting, and they change according to the home team. Also, they can pressure a specific player by booing him when he gets the ball. It's also very good with the difficulty. In the previous game, I won the season with only 2 losses. This one I didn't even finish and already lost 6 (out of 30 something). I recommend this game for fans of basketball or for any person that would like to learn more about basketball.

FIFA 10

FIFA 10 is the newest football game from EA Games, and is surely the best. From FIFA 08 and FIFA 10 (which are the two fifa games I have for Xbox360) the graphics improved imensely and the game movement as well. Also, the transfers are mostly correct, unlike other FIFA's that used to release the game extremely quickly and get all the transfers wrong. Having another comparison, PES 2009 is very good, but still FIFA 10 excels because of its graphic and original scenes. I believe it is a game for everyone and I recommend it for the people that like football and enjoy watching it too. The manager mode is very fun, since you are the manager of a club in that mode, and u can decide what happens with your team. Also, there's the new mode, which is the "be a pro" in which you can play as a single player and start living a career, as you go changing clubs and being selected (or not) to the international teams.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

Probably the most expected game from 2009. The amazing success from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, made everyone anxious and excited for the release of this game. This game is a massive online first-person shooting game. It has the campaign mode and special-ops which are separate single player missions, but the main focus from this game, is the online gaming apeal.

I myself have both games, and I believe that for playing it with other people, this game is much better. The campaign is shorter and less elaborated than from the first one, but since it is based on online playing mostly, it is not such a big loss. I love the great online way of playing from the second one. The killstreaks, the new maps, and the new weapons make the game increadible.

I love the game, and surely recommend for everyone who enjoys shooting games.

For the record: I am much better than Matheus in it!!
