    The post-release support for MLB 12: The Show has become a comedy of errors as now another has arrived creating additional problems. An earlier patch caused freezes for some ongoing Franchise and Road to the Show careers and broke the much ballyhooed cross-platform play between the PS3 and Vita. The latest patch that was pushed live over the weekend is causing trouble once again with seasons and careers in progress.  (more…)...

    The first three rounds of the NFL Draft are in the books so the opportunity arises to analyze how the developments of the past two nights will affect teams in Madden NFL 13. This evaluation primarily considers the improvement over the make-up of the teams last year rather than just who chose the highest rated individuals. In that sense just replacing a player who was lost to free agency with a rookie wouldn't represent an upgrade of significance. Positional importance is also a major fact...

    EA Sports is introducing 30 of this year's crop of rookies to Ultimate Team mode in Madden NFL 12 and began doing so during the first round of the NFL Draft. There are also 6 players that get "Future Stars" cards which represent a rating that could be from the peak of their career. Even more important though is that obtaining a rookie card means starting with that same player in Madden NFL 13's Ultimate Team mode.

    In the first run through of player face comparisons between MLB 2K12 and MLB 12: The Show it was the latter that dominated winning 21 out of the 27 pairings. Once roster updates introduced new players though it was time to check in on them given the process of creating players and adding them after release is handled much differently than those meticulously built for the original shipped product. Needless to say both titles delivered very questionable representations. Though no one would ...

The network has decided to give Fringe a fifth and final season with a 13 episode order. This is great news for fans...
