The Major League Baseball season kicks off with MLB 14: The Show on PS3 and Vita (along with the free to play Rusty's Real Deal Baseball on 3DS), while the Dark Knight revisits his post-Arkham Origins adventure with Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate Deluxe. The week ends with the long-running Elder Scrolls series officially stepping into the MMORPG realm with The Elder Scrolls Online on PC.

One of those titles made me do a "say WHAT?!": Goat Simulator. What the heck do you do? Play as a goat, and try to find a cute nanny-goat and raise some kids, or do you raise goats, a la SimFarm? Or, is it a simulation that lets you play as anyone you want...but they HAVE to be born between December 22 and January 19 (under the sign of Capricorn)?

Somebody please clue me in as to when games stopped making sense so bad that you can't even make sense out of their TITLES!
