Mobile NBA 2K15 Game Available Now
The mobile version of NBA 2K15 released today for iOS devices and Amazon Fire devices. It's unclear when, or even if, it will be brought to Google Play for all other Android devices. There may be some sort of timed exclusivity for Amazon here. Last year though NBA 2K14 did go out several weeks after iOS. This is not to be confused with the free MyNBA2K15 companion app which offers up the ability to get daily bonus VC, chat while in MyPark, and play a card battle game. NBA 2K15 offers t...

No Pre-Release Demo for NBA Live 15
Multiple reports have now surfaced that a demo for NBA Live 15 will not be out prior to release and instead will go out on the game's release day of October 28. This is the case despite EA Sports having implied over the summer that not only would there be a demo but it would go out super early and that the company had other various ways planned for people to get their hands on the game.

Server issues have dominated discussion related to NBA 2K15 since it released last week.

Today 2K Sports announced that a patch has been submitted to Sony and Microsoft that will at least address some of the related issues. #NBA2K15 patch has bee...

EA Showing No Urgency for What May Be Make or Break Year for NBA Live
NBA Live 15 is due out in under two weeks and in just eight days it'll be made available through EA Access on Xbox One. Most wouldn't really know it though with the lack of promotion it has received and all attention going towards the competition. EA has largely shielded Live 15 from consumer.
