A few weeks ago, I wrote an article on the best sport games of the 80’s. One of my favorite games was Hardball, for the Atari computer platform. I could vividly remember a screen which struck me when I was a child and has sprung back up now as an adult. Here is the infamous screenshot:
Nervous? With this!
In the last of our Caption Contest for a Zombie Apocalypse XBLA code comes this gem of a pic. We’ve done a bunch of these Caption Contests but this pic has so much potential. Funniest caption wins a XBLA code for Zombie Apocalypse.
Let’s see all the funny ones. Multiple entries are also accepted but know if one of them is really bad you’re canceling yourself out 
Game 1 of the Major League Baseball World Series between the New York Yankees and the Philadelphia Phiilies is wrapped up. Winner of the first game goes to the Philadelphia Phillies in a 6 – 1 effort backed by a complete game from Cliff Lee and a stellar hitting performance by Chase Utley hitting 2 HR’s. Even more impressive was the World Series simulation prediction by MLB ‘09 The Show.
Alex Rodriguez, of the New York Yankees has admitted to using steroids from 2001 – 2003 while he played with the Texas Rangers.
You may think I’m going to far with the above title, but I truly believe that the youngest player in Baseball history to reach 500 Homeruns should be banned from Video Games. If Major League Baseball will not punish their players appropriately, then maybe “WE” the gaming media should. It’s a start that many other publications would consider. This may trigger promotional activities and other pro-athlete “benefits” to start a trend. Book signings, appearances etc. Where else can you publicly admit that you hurt the integrity of the sport/job and continue working without penalty or repurcussions?
As a matter of fact, I believe Alex Rodriguez has insulted all of us Baseball fans and Gamers by admitting his “wrong doing” AFTER several denials. The MLBPA will be hearing from me on this topic, and I will express my disapproval in their lack of direction for players and fans. Alex Rodriguez, the “person”, will hopefully hear the “A-Roid” chants and even more negative slurs thrown his way, but how can the Video Game industry take a stance? Ban him from all future Baseball Video Games.
