I'm guessing you, the reviewer, played very little of the game because you failed to mention some serious game breaking bugs and glitches in this title. So much so, I was shocked that TT Games let this title release. Don't know what I'm talking about? Try playing The Finale in freeplay mode against Kylo Ren. The quick time events don't translate well to free play and the game get stuck when Kylo force-freezes one player while the other player runs around a glitched out Kylo. I found that tossing a grenade at him invokes a hilarious animation out of Kylo but the other player is still force stuck! Oh and don't get me started on AI... or lack thereof. Ugh. But with all that said, you stating that this lacks much originality at the same time you mention it for kids is baffling. First, kids require repetition to learn anything and second if it's for a kid then it's probably NEW and NOT tired and old. Consider the audience.

I've already passed judgement. it's going to suck.

What is with the messed up eyes in NBA Live 08??? Some are crossed while others are cock-eyed!
