Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo Working Together to Stop DDoS Attacks

After the networks attacks this past Christmas Microsoft head Phil Spencer stated he has been in discussions with Sony, Nintendo and other companies about keeping gaming networks stable in the face of DDoS attacks and other malicious activity.


“I don’t think it’s great when PSN goes down, It doesn’t help me. All it does is put the fear and distrust from any gamer that’s out there, so I look at all of us together as this is our collective opportunity to share what we can about what we’re learning and how things are growing. Those conversations happen, which I think is great.”


This is great news if they all can put their heads together and come up with a more secure solution to prevent the downtime caused by DDoS attacks.

NBA LIVE 15 Roster Update: March 5


The latest NBA Live 15 Roster Update was released today that includes a bump up of Lebron James and Al Horford as well as many others, see below:




NBA champions aren’t crowned in January. After a sixth straight loss on January 13, the Cleveland Cavaliers fell to 19-20 on the season, well behind the Eastern Conference’s elite.


Fast forward less than two months and the Cavaliers sit at 38-24 after a stretch that includes a 12-game winning streak. The Cavs are now the odds-on favorite to not only reach the NBA Finals, but win it.




The Cavs have been lifted by acquisitions like Timofey Mozgov, Iman Shumpert and J.R. Smith, but they’re also benefitting from the MVP-caliber play of LeBron James, who averaged 24-7-7 in the month of February.


At 95 OVR, James is again the highest-rated player in NBA LIVE 15.



Despite the hot streak, the Cavs still sit 11 games behind the 48-12 Atlanta Hawks, who have won five of six since the All-Star Break.



After some great work on the glass (11.1 RPG in the last ten games), forward Al Horford’s NBA LIVE rating improves one point to 85 OVR.

Madden 15 Ultimate Team Tips: How To Become An Ultimate Team Millionaire!

For some Madden Ultimate Team Players reaching that million dollar coin mark seems like only a dream and they assume to get there you have to spend lots of money. They are correct in believing spending money helps but there are other ways to make coins fast that don’t require you to dig into your life savings. In Madden 13 and Madden 25 I had a 99 Overall team and the majority of the time i had over one million coins. Yes I spent a small amount of money on the game but the majority of my coins were made through other methods.


In this video and article I will explain to you 5 Madden 15 Ultimate Team Tips that I have learned playing MUT over the years that can help you quickly get more coins and win more games. So please enjoy the article and checkout my youtube channel for game plays, tips, and Ultimate Team.






1. Do Not Quick Sell Anything

Almost everything in the game has value greater than the given quick sell value. Even the coaches/stadiums/play books will get you way more than their 25 coin value. You can usually sell these for 300 coins because they all go into badge collections. Especially with some new collections the golds carry some very high value sometimes even more than elites. So don’t quick sell anything and make sure you take the time to check the prices on your cards and even if your profits are small they add up!



2. Don’t Just Play Ranked Matches

Play a lot of solo challenges as well. Solo challenges are so easy to do you; simply put the time of quarter to lowest possible and then move the accelerated clock up as high as you can. Ranked matches get you a max of 1600-2000 coins if you’re lucky and your opponent doesn’t quit. In solo challenges you can work up and make way coins much faster! They allow you to fly through games very fast, get coins, and sometimes get big rewards at the end of whatever solo challenge you do. They are painful and boring but if you are serious about becoming a MUT millionaire they are a must have.



3. Research and Know The Market

MUT Pro’s are intense, they usually are on Muthead looking for new cards because they know that if a new Patrick Peterson is coming out they are going to quickly sell the old one because the price will drop significantly. If they hold onto him the price will go way down leaving you with a card that you may have spent 170,000 on and is now priced at 100,000, leaving your team value -70,000 dollars less that it was before the drop. So always research the market and even if you love a player if you know the price will drop sell him and avoid the huge loss.


4. Be an American Sniper

You would not believe the number of cards some people are able to snipe. I decided to try this method in madden 25 for 2 hours and just keep refreshing certain cards and waiting for someone to post them for dirt cheap. In two hours I was able to snipe a 99 Jerry Rice for 1000 coins and 99 Burfict for 5000. People who rush putting up their cards often make mistakes leaving you with a prime chance to greatly increase your teams value. All you do is pick a category with around 4 pages of results (when there are too many pages the results get weird) then just keep refreshing the screen and shift to the lowest buy now and hope you get lucky!


5. Limit Collections

MUT Millionaires don’t do as many collections as you might believe. Don’t get blinded by the million dollar quick sell pulls on youtube and rare flashback cards; in reality this will rarely happen. This is the MUT gambling and much like real life gambling you rarely ever make your money back. Yes you might get a big pull once or twice but that will just make you keep doing and then eventually you will be right where you started. The big names on YouTube do these collections all the time and they do them for one reason. People like watching them therefore more views and that results in them making more money. The majority of those Youtubers just flood money into the game pulling packs and then make it back from their views. So don’t buy into the collections and the high risk high reward pulls because you will most likely just get screwed over and lose your coins fast.
