Complete Details on Connected Franchise Mode for Madden NFL 15
After a long wait for information on Connected Franchise mode EA Sports today sent out full details and video going over the new features and improvements in Madden NFL 15. Typically Franchise is promoted early on in the marketing process but this year was held until late which created concern over how much work had been put into the mode.

Crew Mode Returns – For Real This Time – With NBA 2K15 But Only Last-Gen Consoles
Last year 2K Sports announced the eagerly-anticipated return of Crew mode to NBA 2K14 on 360 and PS3. The mode had been stripped out after 2K11, without any sort of notification to fans, which created quite a bit of animosity. 2K did those people no favors however when it turned out "Crews" was nothing like the Crew mode they wanted back.
Today the company announced proper "Crew" mode is returning in NBA 2K15 but only to the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. It's fairly rare to see any yearly s...
Top Rated Goalies and Defensemen in NHL 15
EA Sports has now begun the process of revealing player ratings for NHL 15. In similar fashion to Madden NFL 15, they're doing it by showing off the top five at each position before moving on to complete rosters. The first two positions are the goalies and defensemen. The most glaring omission is probably P.K. Subban, who despite making it to the finals of the NHL 15 cover athlete selection process gets shut out of the top five.

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. A roster update will go out at release and another after the final 53 man rosters are set on August 31 and any shuffling is made in the lead-up to week one. However most player ratings are unlikely to change until the latter and even then there is some caution considered in making adjustments based on pre-season performance.
Check out the full rosters for AFC and NFC ...
Microsoft Announces Xbox One Bundle With Madden NFL 15
With just three weeks until release Microsoft has unveiled yet another bundle for the Xbox One console and this one includes Madden NFL 15. For $400 it represents arguably the best value yet for an Xbox One and is well worth considering for anyone in the market for the system. Depending on how much individual importance was placed on Kinect the $450 Titanfall bundle had been the best deal until now.
The bundle comes with the standard Xbox One (no Kinect included), a download code for Madd...
