Experience the Raw Sensations of the Football Field
SAN FRANCISCO– March 4, 2010 – Today, Ubisoft® announced Pure FootballTM, an entirely new sports brand that is being developed by Ubisoft Vancouver. The game will be available worldwide in May 2010.

Pure FootballTM is a new and unique vision of football video games, emphasizing the intense, physical and spectacular aspects of the sport. The over-the-shoulder camera and visceral audio dynamically react to the context of the match, placing the gamer in the heart of the five-a-side football action, as opposed to the feeling of watching a TV broadcast.

As many of you know, Madworld is not a Wii game that sold very well, and when it comes down to it, I just do not know why. Maybe it was the over the top violence, maybe it was the graphical style; either way, it’s a very fun game that is worth playing, and after the official price dropped to just $20, I was sure that no one would pass it up. Well, apparently people have passed it up because the price on Newegg.com has dropped to just $10, with free shipping. I usually don’t push my agenda on anyone, but I would highly recommend picking this game up for this price. Even if you hate it, it was only $10, so you really can’t go wrong.
