There's plenty of gamers who've found fame and fortune for their online activities ... but Schlep gained notoriety for a fairly unusual reason.

Schlep made a name for himself producing and sharing "predator-poacher" videos on YouTube after connecting with people via Roblox -- until he was kicked off the platform.

We're going to take a look at the gamer's background and see how he navigated being booted from the massively popular online game.

New York Yankees star Jazz Chisholm was not in the best of moods Tuesday night after being left out of the lineup in Game 1 of the AL Wild Card Series ... but the secret medicine to get out of that funk?? Beating the crap out of someone in "MLB: The Show!!!"

Chisholm shared his remedy following the Yanks' 4-3 win in Game 2 ... which sets up a winner-takes-all scenario for Thursday.

Jazz -- who crossed the plate as the go-ahead run in the 8th inning -- was asked how he got over the disappointment of Tuesday's loss ... and he said all it took was firing up the console.

Bam Margera says he was lost for a while ... and, a doctor even told him his legs were totally shot -- but, he's come all the way back in the new Tony Hawk game.

We caught up with the former "Jackass" star and skate legend Tuesday ... and, he talked about what it means to be in the game -- which comes out this week -- and Bam's super excited.

Bam notes he's gone through hard times over the last decade -- full of drug and alcohol abuse as well as several notable arrests -- and, he credits his wife Dannii Marie for helping him build the necessary strength back in his legs to get back on the board.

The WWE is collecting NBA stars like Infinity Stones at this point ... 'cause the promotion's official video game just added Jalen Brunson into the mix!!

The news was revealed on Wednesday ... when "WWE 2K25" dropped a new trailer featuring the Knicks guard as part of the upcoming "Dunk & Destruction Pack."

In the clip, the two-time NBA All-Star does a walk-out entrance to the wrestling ring ... wearing the same shirt he rocked when he was in the actual WWE ring last year.

Donovan McNabb says Saquon Barkley landing the "Madden NFL 26" cover is "absolutely well-deserved" ... but breathe easy, Eagles fans -- the former face of the game tells TMZ Sports he doesn't believe in the infamous "curse" surrounding the honor.

We caught up with McNabb -- who graced the cover of the iconic series back in 2005 for "Madden NFL 06" -- and talked to him all about the running back joining him as the only other Philly great to receive the recognition.

McNabb believes the folks at EA Sports would have made the right call in either Barkley or quarterback Jalen Hurts ... especially after what they were able to accomplish in winning a Super Bowl this past season.

Bam Margera's holding out hope that he'll be included in "Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4" ... 'cause while the deadline for adding new skaters has passed, Bam's hoping his previous inclusion in the game will help.

We caught up with the pro skateboarder and "Jackass" star outside the Dream Hollywood, by Hyatt hotel yesterday ... and, we had to ask him about the greatest skater of all time desperately wanting him to be in the new video game.

Margera says he recently surprised Tony Hawk with his skills despite being a "professional pile of s***" -- his words -- but, after showing he's still a skater to be reckoned with, Hawk made a call and lobbied for his inclusion in the upcoming game.

"Minecraft" fans have been going absolutely ballistic in theaters thanks to a wild new trend that's even resulted in at least one police response ... and now some are trying to cash in!

Here's the deal ... "A Minecraft Movie" -- the video game film starring Jack Black and Jason Momoa -- has some teens going nuts ... trashing screenings when a baby zombie rides a chicken, AKA "Chicken Jockey."

Several videos have gone viral of crowds going berserk -- throwing popcorn, screaming, running, blowing airhorns, tossing confetti and even bringing in a freakin' live chicken! -- and now Etsy shops are getting a piece of the insanity.

Sabrina Carpenter’s fans have taken serious inspo from her sexual tour theatrics ... putting the new in-game Fortnite star in some seriously freaky positions.

The singer's now a Fortnite Festival game icon ... with her character picking up where her live performances left off, as seen in a wild clip of her avatar getting down in some very bold scenes.

The clip's set to SC saying "Have you ever tried this one?" -- which is what she says onstage before reenacting sex acts -- and her digitized alter-ego "skin" is no less brazen.

Bam Margera is featured in an upcoming "Tony Hawk's Pro Skater" video game after initially being snubbed, and it's all thanks to Tony having his back ... TMZ has confirmed.

Here's the deal ... Bam was not among the skateboarders announced for "Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4" despite being in the OG version, but after a recent push from Tony, Activision is including Bam in the game.

Our sources tell us Tony skated with Bam at the beginning of March and saw how well Margera was doing in his sobriety and wanted to get the "Jackass" star back in the game.

P2istheName -- a popular YouTuber -- has died ... TMZ has learned.

The online star -- whose real name is Philip Enewally -- was found dead on Friday in a mailroom, according the Los Angeles County Coroner. Details are quite sparse at the moment -- but we know the coroner's investigation is ongoing.

TMZ spoke with a family member on Saturday ... and she confirmed he died Friday night and asked that everyone please respect the family's privacy as they grieve. She directed fans to his channel to mourn.

Some of the New York Jets' recent front office moves were not based in reality, but off a video game -- at least, that's what one report is stating ... with Woody Johnson allegedly rejecting a trade for Jerry Jeudy due to the star receiver's 'Madden' rating.

The allegation is one of many laid out in a negative feature focused on Johnson in The Athletic ... which details how several anonymous players and staffers really feel about the guy.

The main takeaway is how most folks disagree with Johnson's decision-making ... and the most surprising example is when the Jets were close to landing the now-Cleveland Browns star before the Johnson & Johnson heir got involved.

When Luigi Mangione made his initial court appearance Tuesday in Pennsylvania after a nationwide manhunt finally ended a day earlier ... and along with his outburst at the cameras, came some trolling from onlookers.

Here's the deal ... Mangione was apprehended Monday at a Pennsylvania Mickey D's ... and hours later, the Manhattan D.A. charged him with murder in the brazen December 4 fatal shooting of Brian Thompson.

After his brief extradition hearing Tuesday ... Mangione was led out of the Blair County courthouse by police where a group of reporters and others screamed questions at him ... along with a very specifical taunt.
