I really don't see much of a difference in this year's The Show and last year's. I mean, yeah it's a great game and all, but it's too alike to last year's and I'm already bored with it.

 

The layout is the same (Different COLOR!)

The RTTS mode is exactly the same (only difference is Batting cages for batters which sucks and Fantasy Draft)

The features menu is exactly the same as '08. (YES ROSTER CONTROL!)

Game is straight up too hard. If you do RTTS, AA pitchers are incredible, and the batters hit like .400 and hit 95 MPH fastballs out of the zone like it's nothing.

There are no different game modes. They should've added something more, I'm not sure, but if I spent a year on a game, I could've thought of SOMETHING.

 

Good things.. yeah the ballparks are sick.. but who cares? I care about playing and the ball park features get old after about twice seeing them.

Kudos on the Custom Playlist option.. finally a game that allows you to have your own music. (Great feature if you upload your iPod Music)

 

Any other thoughts?

 

Kudos!

I played '08 daily last year. These two games are night and day. You mention very little in the way of changes and new features. Yeah it's harder, some would agree that was not intended, but it's not unplayable. I was a big adviocate on this for a while, but the more I got "seasoned" the better I got, and I now belive the challenge is only a beginners challenge.

 

The game has got some holes overall, but they should be getting those fixed over next couple months. I socred it at first a 8 out of 10. Glitches experienced, 6 out of 10. Get some of the most annoying ones fixed, and I could easily rate this game a 9.5.

 

Gameplay glitches is the only thing holding it back... the game is the most stunning baseball game on the market, ever.

There isn't a single problem, glitch, bug, or issue that we aren't aware of. If its in the bugs, and glitch's threads we know about. Now for the new members who just joined and for those of you who have not seen me post about this. The dev team is on a much needed break until the end of the month. We are very aware of the issues that people are having but I can't comment on every single thread that pops up over time. If you posted it on the boards we are aware of it. At this time that is all I can say.
Kudos!
