It seems we can finally use the words “healthy” and “Brian Roberts” in the same sentence. It has been a long time coming. In his past seven starts, Roberts has driven in eight runs, capped off by a grand slam Friday against the A’s. Finding help in those counting categories out of the middle-infield is never an easy task and Roberts should provide just that heading into September.

It’s a small twist but effectively gives veteran Dishonored gamers something new to experiment with.

Were you to simply look at the control layout for Flashback odds are you wouldn’t be surprised — move with the left stick, aim with the right, jump, roll, etc. In action, however, this title takes some getting used to because jumping vertically and horizontally are done with different inputs.

Meanwhile, the “A” button is only used to jump over obstacles and across distances that are essentially parallel to one another.
