MLB 11 The Show Video: St. Louis Cardinals vs. Chicago Cubs (Gameplay)

[Razorblade]

You'd think with it being ALMOST the same game as last year they would have added more Stats in the game since what they did do couldn't have taken a whole year...That's really the only thing I don't like about the show...but still will be looking to buy this game come march the 7th

The irony in this is what makes me sad about our community.

LOL...man that just made my day especially the last parts...the only thing I really have to say is that it looks really good, and I do think things flow a lot better...and the camera angles for each broadcasts teach makes it look just that much better as well.

I don't want to de-rail the thread, so this is all I will say about it.

Posters that harp on socks, stances, etc. are really only extremely active on this site a couple of months before/after release. I always wonder where these guys are around July/August? This is when their critiques could actually get some attention and be implemented into the next installment.

The broadcast cams are what I'm practically the most excited about. I mean, 81 games with one camera and a handful of games with others should really seperate my home/road ERA. Whether or not this one of the intentions of the Devs for implementing this, I'm so excited to actually have a disadvantage on the road this year.

Hadnt thought of this, an additonal dissadvantage of playing on the road. It will be akin to having to get used to a new mound.

Brian chimed in on this last year:
