MLB Players Take On “MLB 14: The Show” Ahead Of Australian Baseball Opening Series

Any good Sydney resident, fan of baseball or fan of sports in general will know that this weekend marks the beginning of the Australian Major League Baseball Opening Series. The hype that surrounds bringing such a brilliant sporting event over to Australia has been immense and with that comes a celebratory “virtual” match between players of the Arizona Diamondbacks and players of the Los Angeles Dodgers held completely within the upcoming “MLB 14: The Show” title set to be released on all current Sony gaming systems. Hanley Ramirez and Yasiel Puig (L.A. Dodgers) went up against Brad Ziegler and Cliff Pennington (Arizona Diamondbacks) just the other day at the Sony offices in Sydney.

The MLB got to play the upcoming title before its release on both the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita which served not only as a promotion for the upcoming Australian Major League Baseball events but for the game itself and I have to say, from the few pictures we’ve seen of the game…it’s looking brilliant.

Below we’ve got just a few pictures of the stars having a ball playing around with “MLB 14: The Show”, you’ll be able to see them just under this article. The Australian Major League Baseball Opening Series starts this weekend at the SCG (Sydney Cricket Ground) and for those of you who are more fans of the virtual world rather than the real one; the game comes out for the PlayStation 4 on the 8th of May with the PlayStation 3 and Vita version becoming available on the 3rd of April.

At long last SimCity fans are finally getting what they have wanted from the very beginning, an offline option for the game. That’s right after its disastrous launch over a year ago the game will finally receive the offline mode that fans have begged for.

SimCity was of course famously released with an online only option that left many players unable to play the game and frequently disconnected which resulted in the game being interrupted. These were just a few of the problems that faced players with the baffling online only game.

Thankfully EA has now officially confirmed the game can be played without a continued internet connection. Be sure to let us know what you think of this news is in the comments section below. Is it too little too late or are you excited by this announcement?

Compile Heart reveals two new Hyperdimension Neptunia titles

It looks like fans of the Hyperdimension Neptunia series won’t have to rely on the Vita remakes of the original games for much longer as Compile Heart has announced two brand new games for the series during a stage event held in Akihabara called Game no Dengeki Kanshasai 2014.

According to Dengeki Online the first title is Chou Jigen Action Neptune U which may be an action game and appears to be quite some time off, while the second is Hyperdimension Neptunia VII, which likely means V II, and it is set to be released sometime this year though the company did not say what platform it would be released on. Considering the whole series has been released on Sony platforms so far, it is a fair bet that one of their consoles will be home to the game where it appears the goddesses might fall to the dark side. More details about these games are meant to be revealed on the April 10th issue of Dengeki PlayStation.

Conception II doubles down on heroine introductions with Chloe and Ellie

Last week Atlus USA began introducing us to a couple of the heroines that players will be able to interact with in Conception II: Children of the Seven Stars but with seven heroines in total, it seems that they have decided to speed things up a bit as today the company has released a two trailers for two separate girls. The first girl focused on is Chloe, a super-genius who happens to be the older sister of your best friend Chlotz. She is incredibly intelligent and serves as a teacher at times but she does let loose every so often.

As for the other girl, we have Ellie. Ellie is an office favorite over at the Atlus USA office partly due to her sparkling personality and the literal stars she has in her eyes probably help too. Then again, it might be because she has an extremely high magic stat so that could also be the reason.

Quicksilver, Scarlet Witch and Hulkbuster Revealed in Avengers: Age of Ultron Concept Art

The above piece of concept art was captured from ABC’s one hour special, Marvel Studios: Assembling a Universe. Aside from confirming the inclusion of one of Iron Man’s most popular armors from the comics – the ‘Hulkbuster’ – and some sort of conflict between the two superheroes in Avengers: Age of Ultron, a bunch of other, new concept art was revealed, giving us our first glimpses at Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver.

There is also a piece showing Hulk and Black Widow back-to-back as their immediate environment crumbles around them. Guardians of the Galaxy gets some love as well. Take a look through the gallery embedded below for all the shots. Personally, I’d prefer this incarnation of the siblings Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver over their re-imagining for X-Men: Days of Future Past any day.
