R.B.I. Baseball 14 coming to PS4, Xbox One next week
Next week, R.B.I. Baseball 14 will be coming to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. MLB Advanced Media brought the game to mobile platforms back in the Spring, as well as the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. The company will be updating these versions of the game this Summer, bringing them a multiplayer mode and alumni packs.
And let’s not forget, there will also be updated rosters! The next-gen and mobile editions of the game will now feature rising stars such as “Jose Abreu (White Sox), Emilio Bonifacio (Cubs), Brandon Hicks (Giants), Mark Reynolds (Brewers), Jonathan Schoop (Orioles) and Masahiro Tanaka (Yankees),” among others.
R.B.I. Baseball will be out on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on June 24 (so two days from now).

New Releases: Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark, Grid: Autosport, Xblaze, More
Believe it or not, a good variety of new games will be available on store shelves this week.
We start things off with Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark, which will be released for the PC, PS3, PS4, Wii U, Xbox 360, and Xbox One. High Moon Studios originated the War For/Fall of Cybertron series of Transformers game, but they’re out for Rise of the Dark Spark as development duties were given to Edge of Reality by Activision. A handheld companion to Rise of the Dark Spark, developed by WayForward, will also make its way to the 3DS this week. And if you’d prefer your cars to be non-transforming, Codemasters will release Grid: Autosport for the PC, PS3, and Xbox 360 this week.
Also available this week is Xblaze: Code Embryo, a PS3 and Vita “visual novel” spinoff of Arc System Works’ popular BlazBlue fighting series.
A complete list of this week’s new releases can be found after the break. (more…)
7 Games You Missed At E3 2014
One of the major problems with the Electronic Entertainment Expo is the fact that it’s too big. So big, in fact, that it hurts, even though the show seems to get more and more exciting every year. However, at the same time, publishers are showing fewer games. I’ve also heard anecdotal evidence that the show floor is so quiet that you can get cell signal. And after the rush of pre-E3 announcements this year, it could be said that the expo itself is all bark and no bite.
Correct or not, there is still a lot of bark during the second week of June every year, so much, in fact, that dozens and dozens of games get lost in all the noise. Here are seven of them. (more…)
Continue Countdown #6 – The E3 2014 Super Show

This rapid fire show covered hundreds of titles including Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, Sunset Overdrive, Halo: The Master Chief Collection, Mortal Kombat X, Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End, Bloodborne, No Man’s Sky, Super Smash Bros. 4, The Legend of Zelda Wii U, Assassin’s Creed: Unity, and a whole lot more. And if you missed any of our E3 2014 coverage, you can catch up with all of it right here.
Hundreds of Games… 50 Minutes… And Go!

There Are 400 Video Games In This 2014/2015 (and Beyond) Release Calendar
We were introduced (and in some cases, re-introduced) to a huge variety of games at the 2014 E3 Expo. So with that pioneer spirit in mind, the Warp Zoned staff compiled this list of 400 video games that are scheduled to be released between July 1, 2014 and the far, far future. We can’t promise that this calendar includes every game currently in production right now (in fact, we’re sure it doesn’t), but that doesn’t mean we can’t all pore over what’s next and get giddy at what this Fall, next year, and beyond will hold.
