Here's something that was sort of inevitable...EA Sports and ABC Sports have announced that John Madden will be using Madden NFL 2003 during their NFL broadcasts to illustrate his commentary. This was something that everyone saw coming. These games are getting so realistic looking, that they'll fit right in with sports broadcasts. Or at least, that's what I think, but then I don't watch sports broadcasts (except for the occasional Super Bowl, but even then I'm just in it for the commercials). Anyone who watches these things got an opinion on the matter?

Xbox DOA4 in 2003? According to Team Ninja's Tomonobu Itagaki, Dead or Alive 4 will be released in the Summer of 2003. Assuming it uses the same engine as DOA3 that's doable. Otherwise...remember this is the same guy who said Ninja Gaiden would be a PS2 launch title.

Xbox Halo 2 Trailer Tomorrow Keep an eye on the official Xbox site, as tomorrow they'll be posting the direct-feed trailer from Halo 2 that was recently shown to journalists.
Console Game of the Evening: Zero Wing for the Sega Genesis. The game itself is merely decent, but the translation is so bad that it has earned this game its legendary status (and consequently made it much harder to get a hold of).
