Baseball Mogul is a great sim series, and while the 2009 version may not have gotten our highest marks, it remains one of the best sports sim titles you can play. Now the developer is offering free for today only, as they get ready for release of the 2010 version. Not a bad deal? I guess they could pay you to take it, but that’s just being greedy. So go get it—now!

Obviously not every game is for everyone. Still, this thread over at CAG is fairly interesting. The gamer says he simply isn’t in to Eternal Darkness, easily one of the best games on the GameCube, and that’s a system that saw classics like Metroid Prime and Wind Waker.
So, what widely loved (dare say, classic?) games simply don’t do anything for you? Share yours in the comment section below.
Electronic Arts just can’t get enough money out of The Sims, err, Sim City, err, whatever franchise. Witness more milking with the announcement of SimAnimals at CES 2009. The Sims with animals? Cute, right?
Wrong. The demonstration given of the title in this video has got to be one of the more sadistic demos ever for a kid’s game. Why is he shaking that bear? And then dumping it in a river? Then he steals a fawn and attempts to dump it in the same river? You truly have to wonder about the marketing people at Electronic Arts. Have they just been worked too hard?
10) Spore
No, it did not live up to its billing. Yes, it is still an incredibly fun game. But more than being a sim game, Spore echoes many titles on this year’s top ten list by being a creation engine. Half the fun of the title can be had from creating different creatures, homes, ships, etc. through an incredibly intuitive interface. Not what you wanted from the game? Perhaps not for you, but it hardly keeps it from being a good game, or in this case one of the best of the year.

Microsoft would like you to know that since dropping the price on the Xbox 360 (all three SKUs), that they have seen sales double. That’s right, two times the sales before the price drop. Of course, that’s hardly a coup with their last place sales as of late.
If you’ve ever dared to delve into the darker nether-regions of geekdom known as AV message boards, then you know people can literally muster an argument over which is the best $500 HDMI cable. Yes, they’ll quote random studies here and there (usually “studies” coming from a magazine article trying to sell magazines), but they’ll never come to a unanimous decision. Well, that is except to tell you whatever equipment you own sucks.
There’s a new video out that showcases the Xbox 360’s new install feature. Essentially, it allows you to copy the entire game disc over to your hard drive and play it, one would presume, with less load time. Of course, all of this is still dependent on the fall dashboard update.
The NBA Live series was once the dominant basketball franchise back in the 16-bit days. But for years now it has been overshadowed by 2K Sports’ NBA 2K series. Each year Electronic Arts makes new promises, and each year they’re still a few steps behind.
