    Few will care at this point but the Xbox One is about to get its only baseball game. RBI Baseball 14 is set to go out next Tuesday, June 24, on XB1 as well as PS4 for $20. What has been long advertised for spring release will fall outside that window but by only a few days. While RBI initially generated some excitement when announced early this year that quickly dissipated when the game was essentially never promoted (no information or video) and then released overpriced and t...

    The release of the PlayStation 4 and the death of competition was the shot in the arm MLB: The Show needed to achieve sales growth following three straight years stagnation and declines.

    MLB 14: The Show on the PlayStation 3 didn't end up being the complete product that was MLB 13. Not surprisingly the game received less than the typical publicity at the time since many were waiting on the PS4 version for this year with higher hopes considering the capabilities of the new system. While it has retained all the same features, promises were really never made that it would do anything more than improve on the graphics of the earlier version. In that regard the game has suc...

    For whatever reason MLB: The Show has always had a black outline around the screen until adjusted in the system settings.

    One of the hopes for the new hardware was that it would cut down on loading times for games like MLB: The Show. The series has struggled with them in the past - along with NCAA Football it was the worst in this regard last generation.
