    The search for the replacement for Steve Carrel on The Office may be nearing its conclusion. Last year's finale introduced a number of prospective new bosses for the Scranton branch of Dunder Mifflin. Though fan response was split amongst the respective candidates the favorite coming out of it looked to be James Spader and he is now in talks to join the show full-time.

    Today the Buffalo Bills unveiled their new uniforms to the public for the first time. The uniforms however were first spotted in one of the early teaser videos for Madden NFL 12. EA Sports quickly pulled the video but it was too late. The company took some heat from the NFL over the slip-up though the league typically signs off on promotional materials before they filter out so the fault there was likely split. The uniforms were not available in the build on display at E3 given that th...

NaturalMotion has now followed up by stating that the game will go for 1200 MS points which is the equivalent of $15. That might be asking a bit much considering a comparable experience on iOS can be had for 99 cents and the full retail version of Backbreaker (which includes a 'Tackle Alley' mode) now goes for less even brand new. While there has been little promotion for Vengea...

    Overwhelming opinion was that the 2011 NBA Draft was soft on premiere talent outside of the top two names though good players surely will develop out of the class. The Cavs went in with #1 and #4 and as expected snagged PG Kyrie Irving and then generated a mild surprise by taking PF Tristan Thompson. At #2 the Timberwolves hung onto their choice and took PF Derrick Williams and will likely look to deal one of their big men to make room. The Jazz followed up at #3 by taking C Enes Kanter who'...

    EA Sports has released a patch for the 360 and PS3 versions of Tiger Woods PGA Tour 12: The Masters. The patch is fairly flimsy with really only one of the widely discussed issues being taken care of while everything else - such as the ability to completely remove caddy suggestions which has long been the most requested change - has gone unaddressed. Continue on for a look at the changes delivered in the patch. (more…)...
