    EA Sports should really just name J.J. Watt as the Madden NFL 16 cover athlete. No need to go through a charade like the voting process was for Richard Sherman on Madden 15. No one is impacting the NFL like Watt is right now. One change at QB coming this week as the Bills sit E.J. Manuel in favor of Kyle Orton. We're almost now to the point in the season where teams should get some upgrade or downgrade consideration as entire units based on performance compared to expectations rather than...

    For the first time in a very long time there was nothing newsworthy to write about today (that shouldn't be the case throughout this week with NBA 2K15 still to announce features) so I tackle a few different topics with The Daily Dish. NBA 2K15 won't have its servers turned on until next Tuesday and that's reason for some concern, discussion has again been raised over how to best implement penalties in Madden, more top player ratings are out for NBA Live 15, and a reminder to enter in the NB...

    A new Press Row Podcast is out and features panel discussion on experiences with the games that everyone has been playing in recent weeks, early impressions of FIFA 15, and the viability of the yearly release schedule for sports games given how many have been delayed or disappointing on the new generation of consoles as of late.

    Closing out the third week with The Daily Dish is an examination of the first Online League details for NBA 2K15 and one scripted element of the game's MyCareer mode that isn't going over very well, the FIFA 15 mobile Companion App for Ultimate Team is available to download, and there's a deal worth considering on the Xbox One version of Madden NFL 15.

  • First NBA 2K15 Online League Info

    In the transition to the new generation of consoles the NBA 2K series lost its Online Association mode which was replaced with basic Online Leagues. The leagues in 2K14 lacked the necessary admin options and tools for any to be successful and server issues sealed the deal on a mangled and virtually useless mode. Even simple settings like quarter length and difficulty levels couldn't be adjusted! An online-based MyGM or MyLeague mode appears unlikely to materialize in the near future but inst...

    The companion app for FIFA 15 that allows you to manage your Ultimate Team on consoles through your phone or tablet is available now to download. This isn't to be confused with FIFA 15 Ultimate Team - the standalone mobile game that also released this week - but instead offers connected functionality to the console Ultimate Team (PS4/XB1/360/PS3/PC) including the ability to buy and open packs and bid on cards in the Auction House. ♦New Feature: Concept Squads – A powerful squ...
