Win a copy of MLB 2K12 for the PS3!

By Ryan Fleming April 13, 2012

Ahhh, baseball, the American pastime. Baseball has become synonymous with America. It is right up there with apple pie, Micky Mouse, and Snooki. Sorry about that last one, world.

First officially played back in 1846, the game has outlasted several governments, been around longer than automobiles, and made it through the Civil War and two World Wars while still remaining essentially the same game. And even after all that, the sport is still recording huge numbers of fans as it continues to grow around the world.

The 2012 season began last week, and its timing coincides nicely with our game giveaway. It was very convenient of baseball to schedule its opening week around our giveaway. Last week it was Driver: San Francisco, this week it is 2K Sports’ MLB 2K12 for the PS3.

For your chance to win, here’s all you have to do: let us know what upcoming game that you would like to hear more about. Not necessarily (or not just) the game you are most interested in playing, but the game you would like to hear more from the developers on, or learn more about the gameplay, etc., etc.

Just post in the comments below what game you would like to hear more about, and you will be entered for a chance to win. On top of that we will try to follow up and bring you some more coverage on that title.

We will pick one winner at random next Friday (April 20), then post our next weekly giveaway, so tune in. If you would like to be in the know on the next game giveaways be sure to keep an eye on the DT gaming section, “like” DT on Facebook, follow us on Twitter, or subscribe to our writers’ (just hit the subscribe button next to their name in the byline).

Good luck to everyone!

Is Manor Lords on console?

A snowy settlement in Manor Lords.

It's kind of hard to believe that a substantial game like Manor Lords could be developed by only one person, but that hasn't stopped it from being an absolutely massive success since its April 26 release date. Rising rapidly to become the top-selling game on Steam and hitting a staggering number of concurrent players, this Early Access strategy title is certainly making a name for itself right out of the gate. However, despite being such a popular game on Steam and PC Game Pass, some players may be wondering if and when they can get their hands on it for consoles. It's currently a tricky question to answer, but here's what we know so far about whether Manor Lords will come to consoles.
Is Manor Lords on console?
Manor Lords is not currently available on any consoles. That doesn't mean we won't see this successful game make its way over to additional platforms, though. In early May 2024, developer Greg Styczeń confirmed on Twitter that he's working with publisher Hooded Horse to bring Manor Lords to Xbox "as soon as possible." While we don't know how soon that will actually be, it seems that Microsoft's console will at least receive the game at some point in the (hopefully) near future.

When asked about a possible PlayStation 5 version of Manor Lords in the same Twitter thread, Styczeń stated: "We're still talking about it." This may mean a potential PS5 release could be much further out than the Xbox version. And given Styczeń's silence about a Nintendo Switch release, it's not looking particularly likely that it will receive a version of Manor Lords at all — though only time will tell.

Your PlayStation 5 has a lot of internal storage to play with, but it’s not an infinite supply of bytes. If you’ve noticed your available space is running low, it might be time to invest in a standalone SSD, otherwise known as a solid-state drive. There are more options in this consumer tech category than ever, which can actually make the research process a little daunting. We’re here to make things easier though.

We have a lot of experience when it comes to vetting and testing external storage mediums, so we’ve created this roundup of the five best PS5 SSDs to share our expertise.

A Sonic game that plays like Fall Guys is coming to mobile

A cinematic shot of Sonic in Sonic Rumble's announcement trailer.

Sega unveiled a new Sonic the Hedgehog game today, and it's a multiplayer game for mobile devices that's reminiscent of battle royale platformers like Fall Guys.

Titled Sonic Rumble, this battle royale game sees 32 players compete as they dash and jump their way through levels. Mediatonic's Fall Guys is the most immediate comparison to draw based on the gameplay briefly shown off in its reveal trailer, but Sonic Rumble does stand out with levels that feel uniquely tailored to the series' iconography and 2D platformer sections that call back to Sonic's roots. A lot of Sonic the Hedgehog characters appear to be playable and can be further customized with in-game items.
