$$$ is not an issue. I just have 2K11, NHL 11, MAdden 11 and NCAA11 and then I get into CH2K8 in March again. I have so many Chises keeping me busy, plus I am going into my 3rd season with the Yankees in the Show 2009. I play almost every game (162) of my franchise in The Show. So just by playing my other sports games so much and trying to win my first title with the Yankees (been knocked out of the ACLS 2 years in a row!!!) in the 2009 version I figure by September of 2011 I will be ready for a new version of the Show if indeed 2011 warrants an upgrade over 2009. Might as well save 20-30 bucks to boot.
I hope the game truly kills it with analog hitting and pitching because that could be a game changer. And I am a stout fan of MVP 2005 (loved the controls which were perfect). I think the Show 2009 along with NBA2K11 are hands down the best sports games ever.
