Don’t have a central spot to get the latest updates on your favorite sporting events as they happen? Wait. Don’t we have Twitter for that? Well, Facebook is out to prove they can do a better job with its new Sports Stadium feature. The new part of the social network lets you experience your favorite sports in real-time. There you’ll have access to posts from your friends; commentary and posts by experts like the team themselves, leagues, and journalists—with a promise for easy access to their Pages; live scores, stats, and play-by-play; as well as game information like where to find the game on TV.

To access Sports Stadium, you have to just search for the game in the app. Facebook said they are still looking for new ways to get you to the feature in the future. It’s launching first in the US just in time for American football season to start next month. It’s currently available on the iPhone and will be coming to other platforms in the coming weeks.

Atari to bring 100 classic games to PC age

It’s time to put away or on display your old Atari console. Atari plans to bring 100 “iconic, fan-favorite” games to the PC. Called the Atari Vault, it will include games like Asteroids, Centipede, Missile Command, Tempest, and Warlords. These games will feature updated user interfaces, new online and local multiplayer options, and Steam Controller support. But what won’t change is the classic ‘70s and ‘80s soundtracks to take you back to that age of gaming. Atari Vault will also let you challenge other players on Steam Leaderboards to give you the ultimate bragging rights of being the best arcade player (if you are, that is).

Atari will be previewing Atari Vault at PAX South 2016 in Texas from January 29 to 31. Code Mystics is said to be developing the collection and will launch in Spring 2016.
