    Amongst other announcements coming out of their Gamescom press conference today EA Sports provided information relating to the demo for FIFA 12. Though no specifics were given on what will be included in the demo it is slated to release for the Xbox 360, PS3, and PC on Tuesday September 13th. The choice of the date is initially curious because it puts it up against NHL 12's release. Generally EA Sports would wish to avoid that scenario - however the conflict only occurs in North America as N...

    The deliberately slow rollout of Madden NFL 12 ratings continues with the latest four teams to have been broken down early this week. The completion of the NFC West leaves only the NFC North and NFC South to wrap up. Check out the rosters and ratings for the Arizona Cardinals, San Francisco 49ers, Seattle Seahawks, and St. Louis Rams. The Cardinals will obviously be quite a different team with the addition of Kevin Kolb and the 49ers were early off-season losers but crawled out of the hol...

    The EA Sports 'Season Ticket' subscription plan offers the opportunity to download and play five different titles three days before they arrive in stores along with a 20% discount on DLC on top of that for $25. Reactions toward the program have ranged from disdain to indifference or acceptance. One thing obviously lacking is any enthusiasm - maybe extending those three days out to a week or so would have made it more appealing on the surface.  (more…)...

    As one of the best shows on television, and getting its highest ratings ever, it seemed a sure thing that Breaking Bad would get at least another season in which the story could be wrapped up. There was some level on contention however as AMC first sought out only a six or eight episode order and showrunner Vince Gilligan was seeking a full season or possibly even two. The potential of moving the series to a different network was even raised at one point. AMC however has now locked up the...

    Though promotional credits had been added for several upcoming titles on Amazon what had been missing for some was the release day shipping. NBA 2K12 recently got it as did FIFA 12 last week and now listings have been updated for NHL 12 providing the $10 promotional credit (which can be put to use on future purchases on the site) along with the release day shipping. The credit had been $20 for NHL but has now been reduced to $10 for new orders. Copies of NHL 12 can be pre-orde...
