GameShow December update coming Monday

Thanks to the blog posting on the EA GameShow website we know the full details of the December update. It is set to be released on Monday morning 12/17.

Earlier in the week back I mentioned some of the new features and improvements that were planned along with some of my thoughts on them. Now we have a more extensive list of what will be in the 1.1 version.
