Top Rated Running Backs in Madden NFL 16
After revealing the top rated rookies yesterday, EA Sports has turned attention to the returning players of the league in what appears to be the start of 22 straight (week) days in which ratings will be rolled out for Madden NFL 16.

Breaking down some of the Madden NFL 16 footage out of E3 (Part Two)
Earlier this week I took a closer look at some gameplay footage of Madden NFL 16, pulling out relevant clips and attempting to identify what the game has added or improved upon and what might still need some work at this stage of development. There were a number of videos captured from E3 however, and certainly there's much more to learn from them - so here's part two which features a breakdown of another original video! (more…)...
