Second Patch Out Now for NHL 15
Just over a week ago the first patch for NHL 15 arrived and delivered with it some anticipated content that had been absent at release. Another patch dropped today on Xbox One and PS4 that is more traditional in nature as it affects gameplay, Ultimate Team, and presentation elements. It's not the promised October update that will add basic Online Team Play and the Draft to Be a GM mode - that's expected to be out mid-late this month. (more…)...

More Details on MyPark and The Stage for NBA 2K15
Earlier today 2K Sports released a trailer for NBA 2K15's MyPark and teased The Stage. Now the company has provided expanded details on both. MyPark and the Jordan Rec Center within it sound compelling. As far as The Stage goes one has to wonder how 2K Sports is getting around this being considered gambling, because it really is, and there are legalities to consider in that.

A Look at Improvements Made to Offense in NBA Live 15
EA Sports today released a new video spotlighting some of the improvements being delivered in NBA Live 15 specific to the offensive side of the ball.

There's the "Jordan Rec Center" where games become 5v5 with four quarters and NBA rules - partially replicating the "Crew" mode so many desired. Also at the end is a tease of "The Stage...
