EA Sports College Football is still a long way away.

EA says that their anticipated release of EA Sports College Football will not be released until Summer 2024 at the earliest. This is the same College Football title that was announced in early 2021.

The lengthy development time is, according to EA VP and general manager Daryl Holt, due to the team building the game from scratch. Holt made this remarks to ESPN in a new interview. Holt says that the Summer 2024 target...

Streamers and fans are calling for a boycott against MUT pack purchases.

A story from Polygon sheds light on what fans and streamers for Madden NFL 23 are calling a "Pack Strike." Through the power of social media and Twitch, the hashtag #PACKSTRIKE started to gain momentum earlier this week. It began when the biggest Madden streamers and "influencers" said that they are not going to purchase premium currency for use in Madden Ultimate Team (MUT).

The fictional character and fictional team are really being added to FIFA 23.

With this being the last official FIFA release from Electronic Arts, I get the feeling that they're just kind of going "the heck with it, let's go for broke." Today, EA and Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment announced that the fictional character of Ted Lasso and his equally fictional team, AFC Richmond, will be included in FIFA 23.

Ted Lasso is an Apple TV show that debuted in...

The free trial weekend is only for those on consoles.

From September 8 and running through September 11, those with an Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, or PlayStation 5 can play Madden NFL 23 for free. The free trial is being offered because the start of the NFL season begins this week.

This comes after years of really buggy releases.

Madden NFL 23 developer, EA Sports, says that this year's release will be the "most polished" version in quite some time. This comes after years of fan complaints over long-standing bugs that have plagued the series, notably with the next-gen releases. The biggest complaints over recent years focused on how the game felt unpolished, the same ol' same ol' presentation year after year, and game modes that were just lacking when...

The Italian football club will return in this year's annual installment.

Who needs FIFA? Not EA apparently.

It's no surprise that EA and FIFA haven't seen eye to eye over these past several months. FIFA wanted to charge EA a cool $1 billion (USD) every four years to continue using the FIFA license. EA balked at the idea, citing the cost and creative restrictions as the reason, and decided to part ways from FIFA going forward.

Today, EA officially announced that after the release of FIFA 23, the studio will officially change the name of their...

But can it predict which commercials will suck?

According to my calculations, Super Bowl LVI will take place this weekend between the Cincinnati Bengals and the LA Rams. As has become tradition, EA Sports simulated the Super Bowl between the two competing teams and they have determined which of the two is likely to win.

The final score, according to Madden NFL 22's simulation, was 24-21 in favor of the Bengals. This would be Cincinnati's first Super Bowl win ever, assuming...

He will be replaced by a generic placeholder.

EA announced that they will be removing the former Las Vegas Raiders head coach Jon Gruden from Madden NFL 22. This is being done following Gruden's resignation after it was recently revealed by the New York Times that he made several racist, homophobic, and misogynistic remarks across multiple emails over the past 12 years.

News about Gruden's removal from Madden was made through the game's official Twitter account yesterday....

This might give us a reason why EA is considering changing the name.

Recently, EA revealed that they have been considering ditching the "FIFA" name from its annual soccer video game franchise. There were some definite questions raised as to why EA would even consider doing such a thing since FIFA is a hugely recognizable name.

Today, some light has been shed that could provide a good reason why EA was considering this move. According to a new report from the...

In case you wanted a soccer game that isn't super broken in 2021.

EA Sports FIFA 22 is now available for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Stadia, Steam, and Origin. Just as is the case with this year's Madden NFL 22 release, FIFA 22 only features a bunch of next-gen exclusive features not available on the previous generation of consoles nor the PC releases.

Even with that said, this is still probably the better of the two soccer games that came...
