MLB 15 The Show: First Impressions (Video)


MLB 15 The Show dropped today in stores, and many OS'ers have their hands on this year's flagship MLB title. I took some time to record some thoughts while I played through my first game this morning in The Show. You can watch the video above to hear some of my thoughts and see some gameplay, including my terrible hitting, hey it was my first game and my timing was off!

Watch the video and let us know what you think of The Show after your first few hours with the game!

Re: MLB 15 The Show: First Impressions (Video)

So far I like MLB 15 The Show, but that really isn't a surprise. I liked MLB 14 The Show, and this feels like a much cleaner version of it. I'm a little disappointed that it seems like the "big thing" this year is licensed gear, had a feeling they were putting too much importance on that and it seems to be the case.

All that being said, much quicker load times, things seem crisper, hitting feels a bit tougher. Overall a great game.

My hopes for next year is that we get a bump in the graphics department. The game still feels a bit "gamey" if that makes any sense. I like to see a more dynamic uniform design, hard to look at the stiff sleeves, although I will say it's great to see the catcher gear look like it fits this year!

After reading what you stated gameplay wise 15 from 14 isn't really that different correct? It just a bit cleaner. What exactly do you mean by cleaner?

Im so on the fence on buying this game. I just don't feel like shelling out $60 and it really isn't a huge difference from 14 to 15.

The thing is MLB the show has always been a solid product, and after buying the game every year. I just have a hard time believing that it can get any better when the game is already solid.

Any info you can provide would be appreciated. Only in the gameplay department.

I am in the party that feels it would be a huge mistake for SCEA to think that their only room for improvement is game gear.

Why would they think that?
...and why would you think that they might think that.
Furthest from the truth you could get.
