I agree it shouldn't be a breeze to hit .300. But sometimes I don't want my video games to be "completely sim". There were times when I enjoyed the PS3 versions more where I could smash the ball and win batting titles by hitting .320+.

Also I didn't like how they changed the guess pitch. I liked the version where you could pick both the pitch and the location, and if you only got 1 right you still received feedback.

I second this motion. Add in the Dynamic Difficulty slider so you can control how quickly/slowly your difficulty adjusts, and MLB 15 was the best mix of challenge and fun I've ever had in any The Show game, and I've played them all since PS2.

Home plate has dirt on it I don't remember ever seeing that before.

Is that new?

And greatly appreciated...
Even in my current "No real time for gaming" mixed in with some lack of motivation to even turn a system on..
The Show always gets me excited and counting down the days until release.

I don't know why you feel this has changed, the game gets easier every year. And you can always lower the difficulty to beginner.

While that may be your opinion, when I popped in '14 I went to the same settings as I had played on previous versions for multiple years. Since the results were not the same or even that close, I guess we will agree to disagree on the subject.

It sucks Carlos Martinez doesn't have a face scan, i know it's not SCEA's fault,, but they could at least try to create something that looks like him instead of giving him a generic face.

Also sucks that Taijuan Walker didn't get a new pitching motion, because last year he changed it pretty drastically, going to an abbreviated windup, almost basically out of the stretch to every batter regardless of baserunners or not. And his one in the game never really looked like his delivery anyways.

Spoiler

Created players seemingly look better, can't wait to see the new hair and beard option.

As i feared, using the advance day feature in RTTS will lead to the exact same weather conditions for the whole series. At least that was the case when it was used here.

Again, the closed roofs look phenomenal, Seattle looked really good, hopefully they can get King's Court in the one area down the left field line.

Also wanted to point out that Carlos Correa wore the Hurrache cleats for a lot of last year along with the vapor trouts. The cleats are in the game, so might as well put them on the players who actually wore them.

Spoiler

Josh Donaldson is another player who wore the Hurrache cleats for the majority of last year, but is wearing the air max cleats in the game for whatever reason. I know he wore the air max in the beginning of the year, but he wore the hurraches almost exclusively after the all star break.

I hate seeing almost all Nike athletes have on the same Nike Air Max Cleats. It seems like no one in the streams has even had on the Vapor Trout 2s except for Trout, that's just not accurate.
