    With NCAA Football 14 having released earlier this week those who did not pick it up already have a couple options to consider if still interested in doing so. The Toys "R" Us promo continues through Saturday (today) with the in-store offer being a $25 gift card with purchase to put towards another item or items at a later date. If that isn't an option then it's definitely worth noting that Amazon already has a lower price on NCAA 14. The Xbox 360 version is going for $49.50 (this offe...

    The 20th anniversary of one of the most revered sports games in history is being recognized with a place in NHL 14. The announcement of NHL 94 Anniversary mode though has brought about mixed reaction. NHL 94 was last featured in NHL 06 and in that case it was the actual original gameplay. In NHL 14 the mode is essentially just layering the old-school presentation over current-day gameplay. The removal of rules and the '94 control scheme were already options that could have been selecte...

    The final spot on the MLS All-Star team will be filled by Marco Di Vaio of the Montreal Impact. Goals scored in FIFA 13 for the week of July 3-10 determined the winner and Di Vaio outpaced everyone with 73,838 of them. The runner-up was Robbie Keane of the Los Angeles Galaxy with over 69K of his own. In all 488K goals were scored between the 26 qualifying players displaying just how dominant those two were compared to the rest of the pack. Di Vaio and Keane accounted for 29% of all the sc...

    There was never any doubt that NHL 94 would play a role in NHL 14 and today EA Sports revealed details on its place in the game. NHL 94 Anniversary Mode will be included in NHL 14 and combines the current day gameplay engine with the controls, presentation, and lack of rules featured in '94 but unfortunately won't be playable online.  (more…)...

    Jay-Z isn't on board to "executive produce" NBA 2K14 but the soundtrack is being handled in another unorthodox manner. This time cover athlete LeBron James is choosing all the songs and he wants to hear from fans on what some of them should be.  (more…)...
  • NCAA Football 14 Named Rosters Now Available to Download

    The first sets of named rosters for NCAA Football 14 are now available to grab through the Roster Share feature. These are fully named with no other edits made so they should work for online play. There will be some inaccuracies but this roster is likely sufficient for most who want to get a jump on Dynasty now rather than waiting for more enhanced sets. When those come around though I'll switch the file hosted under my gamertag on the 360 and point to another on the PS3. ♦Xbox 360:...

    Upon the first announcement of NCAA Football 14 receiving an Ultimate Team mode the initial reaction of many including myself was to express how it really didn't seem to be a good fit and its appeal would be limited. An agreement with the NFLPA allowed for access to active professional players that would be recreated as their collegiate selves.  (more…)...

    The class action settlement that came down from the lawsuit that claimed EA raised the price of football games after securing exclusive licenses is now being held up by an individual taking issue with the cut the lawyers received in the deal. An extension to the period to make claims was enacted back in April with payouts expected to be made over the summer. That time frame now looks to be pushed back to next year according to Kotaku who reports on the person who filed an objection and is...
