    The first significant discount on MLB 15: The Show is available today at Amazon where the PS4 version of the game is just $40. For a period of time MLB 15 had been going for $52 but this is the first it's dropped below that point. At $40 it's undoubtedly a great deal for anyone that has interest in baseball and it's unlikely to go any cheaper during the season. For those on the fence about the game check out the review that was written for Sporting News, which is intended to help in...

    It all began nearly a year ago. Joe Montana teased what at the time was believed to be a mobile game by tweeting out a picture that was accompanied by the hashtags #youvewaitedlongenough and #joemontanafootball16.

Those who were just picking up the game, as a physical copy, were treated to content that those who purchased digitally had to wait for to arrive. After a lengthy delay in rolling out the downloadable content, which is being sold for $10, it released today on the PlayStation 4. Currently it isn't found in the actual Pla...

    Recently, the promotion of Rory McIlroy PGA Tour started to put off vibe similar to how NHL 15 had been handled by EA Sports. Even after having extra time for development the level of content was notably being shielded, and the most prominent of which has been related to the licensing of courses and golfers. Now Operation Sports has learned the extent of both and it's clear why EA had been hiding it. There are only 8 licensed courses included in the game. Additionally there's one that is ...
