Completely Inaccurate Christmas Jerseys Added to NBA 2K15
An art update arrived today for NBA 2K15 that delivered new uniforms to the game. The "Pride" jerseys for the Celtics and Magic and a new alternate for the Cavs are included, but it's the Christmas jerseys that will get most of the attention.

Super Mega Baseball is the Late Season Sports Gaming Hero
Super Mega Baseball enters the marketplace without the support of a major publisher and with it the normal marketing push and fanfare those games get. It lacks the licensing, rich feature sets, and revenue-driven modes that have become the norm.

Super Mega Baseball Impressions and Walkthrough Video
The hope going into the release of Super Mega Baseball, due out tomorrow on PS4 and PS3, was that it could at least partially fill the huge void in sports gaming left by the practical extinction of the non-traditional licensed sim or "arcade" games of old. Thankfully Super Mega has come through in that regard. The game is very fun and really well designed. It may have the look of an "arcade" game but it's grounded enough in realism that it should appeal to a wide audience. I'll be posting...
