Cover Art Revealed for NBA 2K15; Pharrell Putting Together The Soundtrack
2K Sports today released the official cover for NBA 2K15 featuring Kevin Durant. Check out the full cover here. While some fans are expressing frustration with the lack of info or even screenshots for 2K15 - the cover and a soundtrack-related announcement won't help in that regard - the game is basically right on schedule considering the typical way 2K Sports markets the series. For the third straight year a prominent name will be selecting the soundtrack. Pharrell (please don't put 'Happ...

Press Row Hangout Clips: Limited Early Madden 15, FIFA 15, and NHL 15 Impressions
The latest Press Row Hangout broadcast live on Friday night and tackled early impressions of Madden NFL 15, FIFA 15, and NHL 15 coming out of an event held by EA Sports and all the videos and information that have released to this point. They've been broken into segments dedicated to each game with the NHL portion somewhat short as the talk ended up spinning-off more towards how EA's marketing strategy appears to have shifted this year across their portfolio of sports titles. Clips fea...

Brief Look at The Gauntlet in Madden NFL 15
EA Sports today released a quick video offering glimpses at "The Gauntlet" - a new feature made up of various extreme arcade-style mini-games that end in "boss battles". One example seen out of a clip from E3 (later pulled down by EA) included kicking a 110 yard FG in hurricane force winds. The video is complete with an annoying voiceover that you'd expect out of an arcade game although the footage makes it look more like a typical tutorial-type skill building mode.

Madden NFL 15 Cover Prominently Features Equipment Not in the Game
The official cover art for Madden NFL 15 made its way to retailers yesterday. Putting aside that the cover art is awful - hopefully the petition and lobbying from Sherman to get the entire LOB on the cover will lead to a change - it features front and center Vapor Jet gloves and shoes that still have not been added to the series. Nike took over the license two years ago yet those items have yet to replace the old Reebok equipment. Screenshots and videos have shown that they aren't included t...

Madden NFL 15 E3 Presentation
As expected Madden NFL 15 got a segment during the EA press conference to tout some of its new features. The gameplay shown highlights the perspective in Player Lock on defense, new pass rush abilities, a tackle "cone", enhanced player emotion, and new presentation cameras.
