Complete Madden NFL 15 Player Ratings for AFC and NFC North and South
EA Sports has released the complete base team rosters with player ratings for Madden NFL 15 from four of the divisions.

Latest Madden NFL 15 Stream Shifts the Focus to Presentation
EA Sports held another live stream yesterday for Madden NFL 15 with the primary intention of this one to show off the presentation. The earlier stream that was all about gameplay generated a fairly unusual level of positivity for anything related to Madden, but this one hasn't received the same type of reviews from viewers. That's probably due in large part to deficiencies in presentation being much easier to identify on the surface than issues with gameplay. Certainly the disappointin...
Importance of Franchise Mode to Madden Apparent as Consumers Wait for More Info
On Monday EA Sports turned to promoting Ultimate Team mode for Madden NFL 15. After months of consumers waiting on Franchise news, it was the most disconcerting development yet.
