    For a period of a few years it appeared the creative arcade-style sports game had gone completely extinct. While that's still the case with licensed offerings, what has started to emerge in their place are unique unlicensed takes on sports. Super Mega Baseball was the first out the door, and then Rocket League blew the roof off expectations and provided a blueprint of how to be incredibly successful and reach an audience that goes beyond just sports fans. The latest game that looks like i...

    Support for Rory McIlroy PGA Tour, which released without nearly enough content to justify its price, hasn't been all that inspiring.

Now though the first of that upcoming content has arrived. Treasure Island, a new fantasy course, and Dustin Johnson have been added in a free update today on both PlayStation 4 and...

    More surprising than the lack of courses and golfers in Rory McIlroy PGA Tour has been EA Sports' failure to detail any post-release support plans for the game. Sales of McIlroy were dramatically affected, mostly due to having only eight licensed courses, yet it took until two weeks after release for the company to announce anything to do with additional content.
