At least that’s what was told to us at EA’s Studio Showcase event yesterday. The game continues to impress with creative levels that involves everyone’s favorite NBA Jam staple, breaking the backboard and the newly unveiled boss battles. But the game’s new career mode, Remix Tour, takes the cake and I love cake.[nextpage]

Every time I get additional hands-on time with this game, it gets better. With the newly traded and signed players, including Lebron James and updated team logos like the Warriors all in there, it’s hard to believe that the classic franchise is truly coming back.

Something tells me it's going to be ultra satisfying to kill evil and annoying baby-looking monsters in this sequel. The church is very gothic and the environment is all very familiar. Award winning sound design trigger some of the key moments while wandering around, and the fact that there's no HUD (from the original, your health is located on your back) makes the experience even more cinematic.

I've always been a huge fan of the Battlefield series. I actually worked on Battlefield 2 for the PC several years back in QA/production and playing the game for several hours a day didn't bother me one bit.
