Round the bases on this free game Look, sports fans, I know we don’t cover a ton of sports games around these parts. As a lifelong sports gamer, I know it can be frustrating to come to the site and see so many weird games from Japan getting headlines instead of some good old-fashioned athletic competition. Let’s do something about that today. Out of the Park Developments has given us three Steam keys for their newest title,Out of the Park Baseball 19, just in time for the MLB playoff race!...

Izmeth Siddeek of Blue Castle Games recently remarked that he and his team are aiming to packDead Rising 2with up to 6,000 on-screen zombies at a time. Upon first hearing this news, I immediately thought, “YEAH! I can’t wait for this game!” Then I actually looked at my TV and tried to picture 6,000 zombies on-screen at once. I couldn’t do it. I have a 32-inch HD set, which I consider to be a pretty standard setup in our modern age....

Otherwise known as the PS4 and Xbox One ports of RE4 Anyone eyeing the recently releasedResident Evil 4 HDon PS4 and Xbox One might want to take a look atDigital Foundry‘s analysis of the ports. All things told, it looks like Capcom managed to not screw this up, even if these new versions aren’t the definitive ports we all hoped for. I still believe the Wii version is the best of any of them....

The Jamie Carragher On This Day Hero SBC is now live inEA FC 25, and it offers one of the most unique items you may currently get in Ultimate Team. The Liverpool legend has received a brand new Hero version, and you can obtain it by completing all the tasks.

First trailer Bethesda has released the first trailer for theirFallout 4AutomatronDLC, set to release this month as the first part of the Season Pass. It now has a final date of March 22 on all platforms. So far it literally just looks like a cheap mod, where various existing robot models battle each other. Cool on paper, especially if you love robots? Sure. But based on what Bethesda has told us, it old seems like a small storyline that will only keep us busy for a sort while....

Promoted from our Community Blogs [I was still in my twenties the first time I read this blog. At exactly two months into my thirties, this feels more relevant than ever.

Every Wednesday, we highlight rarely-remembered but interesting games for our “Games Time Forgot” series. If you are as big a Harry Potter fan as I am (impossible!), you already know by now that this week’sGame Times Forgotis obviously timed to fall in line with today’s release of the highly anticipated sixth film in J.K. Rowling’s beloved franchise (Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince). In fact, you may have already seen the movie by the time you read this!...

We need a good iPhone racing game. There’s some fun games out there, but none of the ones I’ve played seem very fulfilling. Some feel silly. Some just feel like you’re flipping your phone around in your hands. I think with a few more solid platformers and a good racer or two, the gaming public may take the platform a bit more seriously. I think I saw a good candidate for that racer today in Firemint’sReal Racing....
