Full List of PS4 Apps Available at the Console’s Launch
Sony's PlayStation 4 launches on Nov. 15 in North America, and much like Microsoft is claiming its Xbox One is about more than just games, Sony's PS4 is a multimedia entertainment device as well.

Patriots’ Gronk is Out, While Lions’ Suh is Poor
The NFL enters week 6 with a slew of big winners and even bigger losers. Those two extremes are perhaps captured best in the Manning household, but Eli's not the only one with bad news this weekend. First, the Patriots have learned that Gronk is out for quite some time, and the Lions' defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh has learned that he will, in fact, have $100,000 less in his wallet. But first, the Mannings. Big brother Peyton Manning on Sunday will lead his undefeated Denver Broncos into a slaughtering known as their … [Read more...]
EA to Pay “Tens of Millions” to Current and Former Student Athletes
In a class-action lawsuit brought against game publisher Electronic Arts seemingly decades ago, student athletes asked for compensation related to the money EA made selling college sports-related games. Today, that lawsuit has finally closed, as EA has agreed to pay tens of millions of dollars to current and former student-athletes. The "EA to Pay" settlement, which we'd love to see the NCAA try to ban for "player compensation," resolves EA's liability in a lawsuit brought by former UCLA basketball star Ed … [Read more...]
Colin Kaepernick, Russell Wilson Eyebrow Bet “Not Real”
Sorry, Madden NFL 25 fans, but it appears the script from a recent TV ad didn’t reflect real life. In the spot, San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick made a bet with Seattle Seahawks QB Russell Wilson that the loser of the game would have to shave his eyebrows. The Internet, being what it is, took that to mean that the Kaepernick Wilson eyebrow bet was a real deal, whetting the appetites of thousands of PhotoShop experts. Looks like the masses will have to save their PhotoShop skills for another … [Read more...]

Inside the 2K Sports Booth at E3 2006
Unlike the enormous Electronic Arts E3 booth where the majority of next-gen sports titles are cordoned off in a press-only demonstration room, the curved outer arm at the 2K Sports booth houses a trio of three playable Xbox 360 titles due later this year.
