NBA 2K15 will include a new in-game video show/hub called "2KTV." The in-game channel will feature host Rachel DeMita and provide updates on game features, NBA 2K community-inspired content, and interviews with NBA players, coaches, and experts. The first full episode on 2KTV will air on the game's launch, October 7.

More on the show: The real-life DeMita — not an animated replica — will greet you every time you put on the game. She’ll provide a brief update on the latest happenings in the NBA 2K community. She might be back later with highlights of your game and ask you how you did it.

The actual show will be streamed into the game once a week and is planned to last about 15 minutes. It will feature fast-paced segments from highlights of actual NBA 2K games played by users who allow 2K to access their systems through the DVR function, plus highlights of NBA 2K tournaments and other large-scale events and interviews with actual game users and tournament winners and exclusive interviews with NBA players, coaches and experts. ...

While NBA 2K15 has been ramping up their news and information, it appears we finally know the true definition of the game's #YourTimeHasCome marketing campaign. A video from KTVU shows off 2K Sports' new "Scan Your Face" technology, allowing PS4/XB1 users to get their face into the game and on created players via their consoles camera. The technology/methodology seems very similar to EA's last-gen 'Photo GameFace' feature.

The video shows the easy process and in-game result utilizing NBA 2K15 Community Manager Ronnie Singh. Continue on to check out the video.

UPDATE - 2K Sports and several NBA 2K community members have put out videos and screenshots showing off the FaceScan process and their final player scan. They have been added after the jump. ...

EA SPORTS has posted a new blog showcasing some of the shoes that will be featured in NBA LIVE 15. Scanned into the game using the same technology utilized for player faces, uniform material, etc. the shoes appear in these screenshots to be as realistic as have ever appeared in video games, not without reason. More than any other sport, sneaker-heads expect a plethora of options, especially with many players having contracts with shoe manufacturers, if not their own specially-branded shoes.

The NBA LIVE series has been known for attention to detail when it comes to kicks and it appears that will continue - if not expand - with NBA LIVE 15 when it releases on October 28. Continue on to see images on the shoes from LIVE 15. ...

2K SPORTS has posted a new video entitled "The Land" showcasing the full pre-game player introductions for the new look Cleveland Cavaliers. Following a 33-49 record in '13-14, the Cavs were able to lure back LeBron James while also trading for Kevin Love, helping to vault them to NBA championship contender status.

A new video narrated by FUT Associate Producer Marcel Kuhn discusses and shows some of the changes and improvements coming to FIFA 15 Ultimate Team. Some of these include Concept Squads, Friendly Seasons, the ability to Loan Player(s), and also 50+ Legends (exclusively on Xbox).

However, not all is perfect in FUT-world. With so many users attempting to cheat and scam others, the FUT Trade Offers feature has been removed from FIFA 15. Also aiding in user security, players using the FUT 15 Web App will need to sign in via Origin for an extra layer of security.

We're not sure what's worse: Those working to ruin the experience for others by misleading and cheating them or the people who fall for such scams. If it seems too good to be true, it probably is. Either way, these exploits have led to a popular aspect of the mode being removed.

At this week's GameStop Expo, NBA 2K revealed a new mode coming exclusively to the last-gen (PS3 & 360) versions of the game, entitled 2K Heroes. This unique mode features eight different teams helmed by current and former NBA players including Clyde Drexler, Stephen Curry, LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Michael Jordan, Shaquille O'Neal, David Robinson, and James Worthy with the five-man rosters selected by each respective captain.

In 2K Heroes, users will be able to select their choice of team and play against any of the other squads. The team that has the most victories by the All-Star Weekend will 'win' the competition and 2K Sports will make a donation to the charity of that respective team's captain.

While many companies have either abandoned the last-gen consoles or are only putting out legacy editions (updated rosters), 2K Sports deserves credit for making these versions of NBA 2K15 unique entries in the series. According to vgchartz, the last-gen versions of NBA 2K14 accounted for nearly 70% of that edition's sales, so continuing strong support for these consoles is a very wise economic decision. ...

As EA SPORTS confirmed the delay of NBA LIVE 15 to October 28, the company put out their first gameplay blog and videos of the game in action with 5-on-5 gameplay. This is one of the best moves made by EA marketing as it relates to LIVE in some time, helping to prove that there will be a game on October 28 - despite the company's history of delays and eventual cancellations with the franchise.

The three short WIP videos focus on player "gather," improved ball handling, and off-ball motion and contextual awareness. Continue on to read the blog, see the videos, and share your thoughts with the community. ...

Per a graphic on the EA SPORTS NBA LIVE 15 product page, the game now appears to be delayed until October 28. It had originally been listed and announced for October 7, the same date as competitor NBA 2K15.

UPDATE - From Executive Producer Sean O'Brien:

Considering all the work that’s gone in so far, we will be taking a few extra weeks to polish the game and make sure you get an incredible NBA experience from the moment you first boot up the title. This extra development time means we will be moving our launch date to October 28 to line up to opening night of the 2014-15 NBA season. This was a hard decision, but it’s the right one, as we are totally committed to delivering the highest-quality game we possibly can. You’ll be hearing a lot more from us over the coming weeks, starting with a brand-new gameplay blog that will give you the first details on all the ways we plan to deliver on our promises to build a better experience.

As I said, we’re very proud of the improvements we’ve made in NBA LIVE 15, and we believe with some additional time, our game will reach its full potential. ...
