O.J. SIMPSON RETURNS TO FOOTBALL

Uh, sort of.

I'm really not trying to nerd this blog out, so I'll leave the video game reviews to D. Scott. But I came across this game All-Pro Football 2K8 that 2KSports is planning to put out this summer in direct competition with Madden 2008, which features Tennessee Titans QB Vince Young on the cover.

While I admit I only pick up a PlayStation controller about twice a year, these are the types of games that drive me outta retirement. I mean all the NFL legends like Barry Sanders, Dan Marino, Emmitt Smith and even (wow) O.J. Simpson in the same game? Not a bad idea on 2K's part. Especially for marketing to anyone over the age of 14. It ain't driving Madden off the field, but it will get my boys to stop arguing over whether Joe Montana was a better quarterback than Johnny Unitas.

Extra Point:

It has nothing to do with sports, but I came across this while I was checking out the APF2K8 site. Can you believe "Quality Assurance Tester" (a.k.a. "Video Game Tester") is a real gig?
