NBA Live 2008 Preview

When Electronic Arts set the bar fairly high with the release of madden 2008, they knew they had to raise it even higher in nba Live 2008. The game is slated to be on all the major consoles such as the xbox 360, PC, PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, PlayStation portable, and the nintendo Wii. This years iteration seems to hearken back to the fundamentals of basketball. One new feature in the video game is an online tournament mode. This will be a 32 team tournament style playoff that plays similar to fantasy football.

Electronic Arts has not corroborated if this mode will entail any e-mail support, but it looks promising. The online choices appears to have some variety to it. Gamers can play a versus mode and quick play to name a few. Versus is playing against other players online and quick play is using your own customizable team. If you choose to create a team with Shaq and Kobe as teammates, you can do that. The ESPN heavy presentation gives nba live 2008 a more authentic television experience. Players will also notice a scenario mode (ala Madden) where you can generate a bizarre situation any way you want. Last seasons modes such as the mini-games, dynasty mode, and nba all star weekend will no doubt be making a return.

In terms gameplay, there looks like there will be more maneuvers being performed in the paint. The low post game is a point of emphasis in this years version of nba live 2008. Putting your back against the defender and executing fakes/shots will be strategic. A wide variety of shot selections can be used at the touch of a button. Another new feature in the game are the various cross-over dribbles and spins that can be utilized in conjunction with each other. Since the game an nba simulation, you cannot expect to see extravagant dribbles by Tim Duncan.

You will have significantly more success if you are doing cross-overs with Kobe Bryant and LeBron James. These moves will be mapped to the right analog stick (ala nba live 2003). A shadow button has been included for better defensive positioning. Furthermore, expect to see players like Dirk Nowitzki and Paul Pierce attempt fade away jump shots. Conversely, players like Dwayne Wade and Allen Iverson will drive towards the basket. The nba live series is always a step behind the critically acclaimed nba 2k series. Will this year be different? We will have to wait and see when nba live 2008 is available in October.

Create A Sexy Flat Stomach Safely

Creating a flat stomach is a mystery to a lot of people. The process is simple but the discipline it takes to achieve it is what is hard for a lot of people. In order to create sexy abs safely you need to first determine your food intake requirement. You can do this by multiplying your body weight time 10 to 12. This number depends on you activity level 10 if you don't even workout and 12 for people who exercise on a regular basis.

The key to burning fat is to create a caloric deficiency in your body to make your body metabolize fat for energy. In other words, give your body less calories than it takes to maintain your weight. most people think starving themselves will get the results they want only to find their body fights back by gaining more fat. There is a fine balance to this or you will go back and forth in weight gain. Try to lose between 300- 400 calories a day exercising, no more no less. Stick with your calorie intake don't decrease it think the results will happen faster it may cause the opposite effect.

This will force your body to burn fat when you aren't exercising. I'm sorry you do have to get active to lose fat. walking and jogging are excellent if you can do it. Swimming is a low impact way to achieve results but not as fast. There are also some low impact fitness equipment that burns calories just as effective without the strain on joints and ligaments. It is best the exercise first thing in the morning after a just wake up. If you must eat then eat a protein meal no carbs. This will ensure your body will burn fat!

I am going to keep this simple eat vegetables and oatmeal. Leave the starches alone until you reach your ideal weight for your body type. Eat your veggies, Starches turn to sugar too fast for your body to use it, so it turns to fat. Plain enough! http://www.how-2-get-a-flat-stomach.com
