Hitting is one of the most frustrating yet rewarding experiences in all of MLB The Show 25. One moment, you're sending balls into the stands; the next, you can't seem to hit a single pitch coming your way. While you can go through slumps, just like MLB players do in real life, your struggles with hitting could come down to something as simple as your settings.

In MLB The Show 25, the ideal hitting style uses the "Zone" Hitting Interface. This interface allows you to more accurately get the barrel of your bat on the ball. The Zone interface is also the only option that allows for the use of PCI, or Plate Control Indicator. PCI is an entirely different ballgame in the settings menu, and going through the various options can get confusing.

To ensure you have the best chance to hit in MLB The Show 25, check out the guide to see the top PCI settings.

InZoi, Krafton's life simulator that could serve as the first real competition for The Sims, is finally arriving in early access on March 27, but the party is starting a little bit early with the launch of inZoi Creative Studio, which allows players to try out the game's character creation and build mode tools in-depth before jumping into this new simulated world.

While many aspects of inZoi will be very familiar to fans of The Sims, particularly as they design their characters, or "Zois." But inZoi goes much further than The Sims in terms of how much you can customize your belongings, and it can be relatively easy to miss some of those options when you're trying the game out for the first time.

There are two specific features we're going to highlight here: that you can craft your own clothing and furniture, and that you can apply your own custom textures and patterns to nearly anything. Essentially, these are mod tools built directly into the game's interface, with inZoi natively providing the means to create your own custom content.

Are you curious about how to increase health in Assassin's Creed Shadows? Having higher HP, naturally, grants increased survivability. You can take more hits before your HP bar gets fully depleted.

The extremely cool Optimus Prime Lego set has been difficult to find in stock at any retailer for months, but the Autobot leader has quietly transformed his Amazon listing to in stock with Prime delivery. Considering how scarce the 1,508-piece Lego Transformers kit has been--it was sold out even before the holiday shopping season--it's somewhat surprising that Amazon is also offering a 20% discount that drops the price of Optimus Prime to $144 (was $180). Amazon's deal matches the all-time low price that we've previously seen during big sales events like Black Friday.

Get deal at Amazon

We wouldn't be surprised to see this 2-in-1 build--Optimus can quickly switch between mech and truck modes--sell out again soon. If Amazon sells out, it's worth noting that the Lego Store restocked Optimus Prime, too, but you'll have to pay the full $180 MSRP. Lego officially denotes Optimus Prime as "hard to find." This description combined with the prolonged stock shortages could mean that the Optimus Prime kit, which debuted in 2022, is close to retirement.

In case you haven't seen it yet, Invincible follows Mark Grayson, the son of the Superman-like protector Omni-Man. When Mark's own superpowers finally kick in, he decides to follow in his father's steps and he becomes a new superhero, Invincible. However, he soon discovers his father is hiding a sinister past. Throw in teenage romance, a growing rogue's gallery, and homework, and Invincible is a grounded look at modern superheroes that's worth reading.

Artist Cory Walker established the look of Invincible with his first run on the series, eventually handing the reigns to Ryan Ottley who helped elevate the comics to new and often brutal heights. Meanwhile, Walking Dead co-creator Robert Kirkman's writing helped each issue feel real, while also regularly throwing in new twists along the way to keep things fresh.
