MLB 10: The Show

[Kermit IV]

DPD.  So, I switch back to The Show, and during some downtime, the P.A. announcer at Wrigley tells me to be sure to get my subscription to Vineline.  The 2K series has absolutely no chance of ever catching up to this game.

2K's license is up after 2012's game I believe.  I read a while back that both parties are not interested in reupping the deal.  Don't know what this means for MLB on XBOX, but maybe a return of EA to baseball.

Either way, if you have a PS3 there's no reason to ever buy a 2K baseball game.

Hilariously, it's TAKE-TWO rather than the MLB that doesn't want to renew the deal.  Don't want to lose money on a baseball game?  Don't make a shitty baseball game.  Actually, don't make seven years of shitty baseball games in a row.  We'll at least be fooled for the first few.

As for what will happen in the post-2K world, I can't wait to see.  I would suspect MS will find a way to get baseball on the 360 (or whatever the next-gen console is).  BRING BACK HIGH HEAT!

Is the upgrade from last year's version to this year's worth making? And I assume old RTTS save games don't carry over?

[Sterling Archer]

DPD...I guess.  The Show loves to freeze on the load screen after RTTS games.  Anyone know a fix?

I don't play RTTS.  So, I have no idea.  But the gameplay on the field is even better this year, I <3 this game.

The Nationals let my RTTS pitcher, who is 19 years old, finish a shutout against the Mets.  Final line 9 IP, 7 H, 0 R, 3 BB, 12 SO.  The score was 11-0.  I got the "is getting tired" message in the sixth inning.  He threw 156 total pitches.  Has Dusty been doing some consulting work?

Is this The Show 13?
