Sale This Weekend on Super Mega Baseball
Super Mega Baseball arrived late 2014 and surprised as one of the best sports games of the year. As an independently developed game that features no licensing and offers an arcade-slant it faced all sorts of challenges that few publishers would even consider taking on these days and that's why unique sports games have gone largely extinct.

RBI Baseball 15 Now Available on iOS
Given that the return of RBI Baseball was a much better fit on mobile than consoles last year it was a surprise early this month when MLB Opening Day rolled around yet the new edition was not out for iOS and Android. Instead the overpriced and underwhelming (hey, a 45 Metacritic is better than last year's 23!) Xbox One and PS4 versions were released in time for the season. Today RBI Baseball 2015 finally arrived for iOS devices and presumably Android is close behind. The game goes for $5 ...

Tap Sports Baseball 2015 Review

MLB Manager 2015 Review
by Brendan Wilhide MLB Manager 2015 is the latest version of the popular iOOTP series of text-based manangement sims. The new name reflects the fact that the series has an official full MLB license for the first time in the game's history. The new license is a welcome addition to what has become a solid portable version of its more illustrious desktop counterpart, Out of the Park Baseball, and fans will welcome the new license atop an already familiar and strong feature set. Longtime fan...

New Edition of Tap Sports Baseball Now Available on Mobile
Undoubtedly one of the best sports games for mobile devices last year was Tap Sports Baseball. Not only was it true to the sport on the field but it was designed in such a manner worthy of recognition when compared to the models utilized by many other mobile games. Check out my write-up on it here. Now a brand new edition of the game has released. The downside is that it requires starting over. That's something console gamers are accustomed to but mobile gamers may be less comfortab...
