Madden 10 Brett Favre Ratings
As reported earlier Brett Favre will be included in the Madden 10 roster update that is scheduled to go out tomorrow 8/19.

The Gamestop preorder incentive for NBA Live 10 is now known and thankfully it is not tied to a demo or any particular game feature. Instead it will be a copy of the soundtrack given away. ESPN takes an amusing look at the lowest rated players at each position or category to put together ...

Latest NBA Live 10 Updates
The last couple of days have brought about a flurry of NBA Live 10 blogs and videos. Not only do they provide new information and clarity on previously announced enhancements but there are also side-by-side comparisons to 09 that display the stark differences between the two iterations. Following up on the Hustle Plays earlier in the week comes a look at the dribble moves being referred to as "Size Ups". There are a couple of videos here to show off the (in some cases) player specific siz...
