NBA 2K12 First Round Rookie Ratings
All the first round rookies have been added to NBA 2K12 through the series of roster updates over the last week with the exception of Bismack Biyombo who just signed with the Bobcats yesterday so he should be in the next one.

NFL Blitz Rosters: NFC West and South
ESPN continues to roll out the rosters for the upcoming EA Sports' reboot of NFL Blitz set for release on January 4th. The NFC West and South follow the NFC North and East which were detailed late last week. Each team carries seven offensive (QB, RB, 2WR/TE, 3OL) and seven defensive players (3DL, LB, 3DB) along with a kicker and punter. Again it seems to be that some of the roster inclusions are outdated and the limited number of slots means a few players that are probably worthy of being...
