MLB.TV Launches On Xbox Live Today
Glorious day, baseball fans! You can now watch Major League Baseball's poorly planned season opener on Xbox Live! If you're awake at 6 AM ET, you can catch the first game of the season pitting the Seattle Mariners against the Oakland Athletics. The reason for the absurdly early time? The game is being played in Japan. This is how the season begins, Bud Selig? Really?
If you're interested in the MLB.TV app, there's one thing you need to know: You cannot watch local market games. I'm a Cubs fan who lives in Minnesota. This app (which I primarily use on my iPad) has changed my life. I play games on my TV and watch baseball around the clock on my iPad. You can find all of the subscription models here. At it's lowest cost, you're looking at $19.99 a month or $109.99 for the year.
The Xbox app offers a few unique features like the ability to watch two games at once via split-screen, and also use Kinect's voice and motion commands to rewind, pause, and watch highlights. All of the games will be aired in HD.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
