EA Sports UFC Receives New Patch and Adds Three Fighters to Roster
It may be practically dead at this point but it remains important for EA Sports to support the UFC title that launched in June.

The changes that have been made since release in now two patches demonstrates the company has ident...

Patch Released for EA Sports UFC; Three Fighters Added to Roster
A significant update was released for EA Sports UFC today that on the surface attempts to make the gameplay somewhat more realistic while also adding three fighters to the roster for free.

That isn't going to solve concerns over value due to the lack of content offline (recent price drop can help in that regard) or that the CPU fights the same no matter who is being used and does so super-aggressively, but...

Patch Expected Soon for NBA Live 14; Adds Shootaround, Improves Gameplay and Visuals
While there may not be many consumers playing NBA Live 14 it has been important for EA Sports to follow through not just on post-release promises but delivering a competent and enjoyable product to market. Those who gave the game a chance may not be so forgiving this fall when Live 15 arrives. It's not just the goodwill of improving the game but demonstrating that the company recognizes its faults and may be in a position to rectify them while excelling in other areas in the coming years. ...
