MLB 10: The Show

[MoPlaYa]

Anyone else going to be buying this game?

 

[eternalinferno]

I'm definitely getting it, I'm a huge baseball fanatic

 

[ProjectPat2280]

Yea, if i get a baseball title this year, itll most likely be The Show, the 2K series has just been a train wreck the last few yrs while The Show is fast becoming one of the best sports titles on the market.

 

[The Riddler]

can't wait.

what's ur psn id riddler? maybe we can play sometime, u too moplaya

 

[The Riddler]

i'll probably be playing rtts and franchise but i'll probably play online a lot more if it's not as laggy as last year.

 

[Spidey-Bat]

I preordered it on Amazon since you get some old stadiums. You can get them by getting Platinum but the online achievements are a *****. I'm not completely in love with The Show but I haven't bought a baseball game since 2007.

I played a little, and I think the animations are crisper now. Fielding feels better, I've yet to overrun a ground ball like I did alot last year. The new presentation mode is pretty cool, too. Nice seamless transitions between everything during a game.

I'm a huge twins fan have been for 20 years. I haven't got a baseball game in a few years now, is this game worth buying a ps3 for? It looks just stunning in the videos I've seen for it plus my man Joe is on the cover.

 

[Spidey-Bat]

Mauer on the cover is enough of a reason. Though why the hell did they have him wearing his away jersey?

 

[MoPlaYa]

i bought it today... gonna play it tonight and tomorrow bunches

Add me my psn is Moplaya

 

[The Riddler]

wow, online is amazing this year; very little lag at all! i can hit and pitch this year! i'm 2-0 online so far.

i'm waiting to start my franchise until the patches/roster update is released that fixes the problems in franchise mode.

 

[jacobed]

I just spent all of my rent/cable/electric money on a ps3 and the show and it was definitely worth every single penny. I was playing it yesterday and my roommate walked in looked at it and said I didn't realize the Twins season started already. Ah man if that isn't a compliment towards the game I don't know what is.

hehehe gotta love the new marketing strategy

 

[War Party]

Just ordered the game and never played any of the previous. Should I be excited?!

 

[Spidey-Bat]

I had only played 06 and I was kinda turned off by this after playing it for awhile. I wanted to get rid of it but I'm gonna hold onto it. I may like it more once I get the hang of things and the excitement from baseball starting now may get me into it more.

 

[MoPlaYa]

Its great once you get the hang of it... franchise and road to the show modes are the best

 

[The Riddler]

best sports game...period.

it shames madden. love the realism, the visuals. it's really a lot of fun, but it plays very true to the sport. you have to be patient if you want to hit and mix pitches if you want to pitch well.

it's an amazing game if you want a true baseball game.

Perfect. Exactly what I want.

 

[War Party]

Man, I absolutely love this game. The graphics and animations are incredible, the gameplay is probably the best I have ever played in a baseball game, and it's just overall a whole lot of fun. I can see why people may be turned off by it, but this game is definitely for die hard baseball fans.

 

[MoPlaYa]

Anyone know when/ how you can get roster updates?

 

[The Riddler]

Anyone know when/ how you can get roster updates?

The mad geniuses at Operation Sports have put out a custom roster file that comprehensively updates one area that MLB 10: The Show cannot, according to its contract: Real minor league players.

Any minor leaguer who has never appeared in the majors is off limits to Sony San Diego (it has to do with group licensing of images with the Major League Baseball Players' Association.) So Washington's flamethrowing phenom Stephen Strasburg, drafted last year and presently in Double A, won't officially appear in this video game until he debuts for the Nationals.

You can circumvent that with the free, user-created Full Minors V. 1 roster from the Operation Sports community, currently available through SportsConnect on The Show. To get it, log in to SC, and check the Roster Vault for a file named OSFullMinors2010V.1, uploaded on April 6. Features include:

• Faces and features for the top five to 10 prospects for all franchises.
• AAA team lineups and rotations adjusted to reality "as best as possible."
• All real players.
• All players on an MLB roster now included.
• Lineups and rotations set as of Opening Day.

I went and pulled it down myself just now; I can't imagine playing franchise or season mode without it. And considering how deep the face-generating engine is in the game, the amount of work put into creating realistic appearances for top prospects deserves recognition. This is one of the finest custom roster files you'll find for any game.
