Lacrosse coming to Xbox?


There are video games for all sports, from baseball to the Olympics, but lacrosse always seemed to be absent. In high school I played lacrosse and always wanted EA Sports to make a video game. The only one is existence is BLAST LACROSSE for the PlayStation, and really does not give the game the respect it deserves. So some designers from the Xbox Community indie games decided to give a lacrosse game a try. The push for a game came when there was a petition give to EA with over 157,000 members. The game is going to be a trial run, and if it catches on EA will make it into a franchise such as Madden or FIFA.

As for as game play, the game will have all rules, offensive formation, dodges, and a practice mode. The only let down is that the game was low budget and will not have to best graphics. But die hard lacrosse players will not care, because it will be the first of its kind. Besides it will only be ten dollars and possibly turn into something great. Personally I'm excited because while playing football is fun, but I would rather have a lacrosse game any day. The game drops later this month on Xbox live.
