If you're a fan of hyperbole, hold on to your seats, because it's "the greatest day in EA Sports NHL history" as one producer on the franchise exclaimed via Twitter. The update promised back when consumers discovered how many features were missing from NHL 15 - with long-awaited comment came a commitment to extensive post-release support - arrived today and apparently EA is super proud of themselves for it. The patch delivers basic Online Team Play (only NHL players, lacking the abi...

Second Patch Already Here for FIFA 15
To the surprise of many a new patch for FIFA 15 went out today. It was unexpected if only for the timing - the first patch went out last Tuesday.

That type of patch would probably be another month or so away based on track record from pas...

The latest FIFA game for mobile released today and the focus has shifted even more towards the Ultimate Team model.
