    The exclusive pre-order bonus at Gamestop for MLB 14: The Show was initially disconcerting but given the controversy over next-gen NBA 2K14's damaging Virtual Currency implementation it has become more of a concern on the minds of consumers. Those who pre-order from the retailer will get $20 of the new "Universal In-Game Currency".  (more…)...

    It's been evident for a long while now that there would be no further extension to the MLB license with 2K Sports. The MLB 2K series was actually cancelled in 2012 only to return due to a last-minute one year extension that resulted in a shameless carbon copy of the previous title. SCEA even recently touted how MLB 14: The Show would be the only baseball game on next-gen consoles. As unlikely as the scenario seemed that still left at least an opening for 2K to continue on the 360 and PS3 for...

    Though a relevant time of the year due to the Winter Meetings and free agency period, December is not when baseball video games sell. Events taking place now will only be reflected in the next game out and that wait will stretch until 3/4/14 with the release of MLB 14: The Show. That makes it an effective time to offer a deal on the PS3 version of MLB 13: The Show and capitalize on some of the interest in the media right now. Sony is offering the game digitally for just $10 to PlayStation...

One or both seem likely to happen. Typically the first news related to the upcoming release of The Show has to do with the cover. That news tends to come anywhere from early November to mid-December and sometimes has coincided with an awards announcement. Last year the cover being determined through fan voting w...
