The
NFL regular season kicked off last night, and believers in the Madden
NFL cover curse already have something to point to. The Pittsburgh
Steelers' Pro Bowl safety and Madden NFL 10 co-cover star Troy Polamalu
suffered a knee injury in the second quarter of the season opener
against the Tennessee Titans Thursday night. The
Associated Press reports that Polamalu's injury was diagnosed as a
sprained medial collateral ligament (MCL), an injury that typically
keeps pro players on the sidelines for three to six weeks. The
defensive star had been having a productive game until that point,
making six tackles and coming down with a spectacular one-handed
interception earlier in the half. Despite losing Polamalu, Pittsburgh
went on

EA CEO laments annual football sim's slower-than-last-year opening, despite 1.9-million-unit start.
Today, the NPD Group released its US retail sales figures for August, reporting a sixth straight month of year-over-year sales declines. Software sales slipped to $470 million, down 15 percent from last year, with EA's Madden NFL 10 on the Xbox 360 topping the chart with 928,000 units sold. According to NPD analyst Anita Frazier, Madden 10 sold nearly 1.9 million units total during the month, a figure that also includes the PlayStation 3, PlayStation 2, PSP, and Wii editions.

Some people have found Kurt Cobain's posthumous appearance in Guitar Hero 5 a little unsettling -- including his widow, Courtney Love.
In a Twitter tirade for the ages, the former Hole frontwoman
announced plans to sue Guitar Hero 5 publisher Activision over the way
her late husband was represented in the game, reports The Guardian.
"For the record this Guitar Hero [expletive] is breach of contract
on a Bullys part and there will be a proper addressing of this and
retraction," she posted on her Twitter account.
"WE are going to sue the [expletive] out of ACtivision we being the

Yes, we can hardly believe it ourselves, but Sony came a-knockin' at
our door today, and we were more than willing to answer. The PlayStation 3 Slim
is now official in-house, and it's a matte-laden beaut. Enough chitchat
-- live vicariously through our unboxing!
Update: Some details for clarification. The buttons in
the front are now physical and actually "click" in to function. The PS
logo above the disc drive does not rotate for vertical use, and yes,
the hard drive is swappable
-- as you can see from the pictures, there's a screw on the bottom,
hidden by a panel, that lets you take off part of the front for access.
We've also lined it up against our standard, fatty PS3, and we gotta say, it's noticeably lighter.

Pachter, Divnich, Sebastian, and Schachter weigh in on
Microsoft's move, projecting additional discount within next year,
Nintendo response.
In the wee hours of the morning, Microsoft broke its silence on its long-speculated Xbox 360 price drop.
Beginning Friday, the 120GB Xbox 360 Elite will cost only $299.99. As
for its current $300 model, the 60GB Xbox 360 Pro, Microsoft will be
cutting $50 from its price to clear inventory as the SKU is phased out.
Microsoft's low-end Xbox 360 Arcade, which has 512MB of built-in memory
and no external hard drive, will retain its $199.99 price point.

"Extremely limited stock" selling out at
brick-and-mortar stores; online retailers currently shipping units;
hardware hackers get how-to guide.
When it was first announced last week at GamesCom in Germany,
the PlayStation 3 Slim was given a September 1 release date. That
appears to have fallen by the wayside, though, with both

120GB console.

You dont see skills like this everyday. AgonyVII is one of the most talented directors we have to offer here at Gamefresh. His videos are rather short, but leave an impression that lasts a lifetime. Take a look at what one of our writers has to say. Ever heard of a terrible Call of Duty Montage? Don't you hate it?
Well, you'll never have to worry about that with AgonyVII. After seeing
his "Seizure" montage, I was quick to hit that subscribe button! Agony
is a great editor, one of the best I've seen in a long time and that's
what he's most known for. His amazing editing skills.
On
every single video, it's all a good comment and I agree with each one.
He says if you have great gameplay and quality, he'll edit your montage
for FREE. Awesome, right? Well, that's not even that half of it!
I suggest you all check out his YouTube page
