Posted on July 18, 2009 at 05:22 PM.

(All apologies to Tiger Woods – but your game used to launch in late August).

With this in mind, here are five big questions about the crop of summer and fall releases.

1 – Can NBA Live, NHL 2k and PES narrow the gap and challenge their rivals?

Posted on June 29, 2009 at 04:25 PM.
It's been a few weeks, but look for this blog to once again become active with thoughts, information and ideas mostly aimed at the big three football titles: FIFA, Madden and NCAA.

In fact I should have a return column up sometime in the next couple of days taking a look at the 2010 crop of games and asking some questions.

Until there, some random thoughts to fill the remaining hour I have at work before going home and taking part in a little 1 vs. 100 action on Xbox ... Read More

Posted on April 29, 2009 at 09:59 AM.

Last week, I sat down with Phil Frazier, a long-time producer at EA Sports, and checked out the latest Madden 10 build. While I did not get a chance to grab the controller and start dissecting the game myself, Phil Frazier did demo many of the new on-the-field Madden 10 features for me.

OS Draft Arena Cards
Posted on April 27, 2009 at 11:39 PM.
I'm currently working on creating a set of "cards" users can add to their arena, featuring the latest NFL draftees in their new teams threads.

So far I have a few cards done, and will be looking to add more this week.

To add the card, first right click and "Save Image As ..." and save it to your computer. Then go to your Operation Sports arena, click "Edit Your Card," and us the upload option. The card is sized perfectly to fit on the OS Arena page.

So in the interest of helping EA deliver online franchises people will love, here are some tips from the point of view of a long time Madden commissioner and NCAA Online Dynasty aficionado.
