It's not a perfect game, but I have fun when I play it, and in the end, that's what everyone should be able to say when they make a $60 investment.

lmao @ getting a ban hammer. I think the 2K looks decent for someone who only owns the 360 but the majority of people with PS3 & 360 are going to pick PS3 The Show. I haven't heard long durations of The Show commentators, so I'm not sure if it's the same as last year (besides adding another member). 2K commentators sound solid but any game can only record a set limit of lines....even 5K or 10K lines will begin to repeat.

I always buy both and I was able to get 2k13 early from the a swap-meet and yes it's exactly the same as 2k12 a lot of the new guys like Trout, Harper, Soto, and Cespede. Still have generic faces. Grenke still wit a Brewers hat in his pic. My dirt hit was a double that ended up being an inside the park home run because Trumbo got glitch standing against the wall. I love 2k but the didn't even try. For the Dodgers fans that asked, they have the new dodger stadium seats but still have the old big screens.

I had a PS3 last year, but still went with the 2k12 and I never once regretted that decision. Sold my PS3 three weeks ago and will be picking up 2k13 tomorrow. 2k plays a fun game of baseball and in the end that's all I care about.

For the record, I have 2K12, I like it and plan to play it again this year. 2K13 appears a little better, but not enough for me to buy it. So while that is disappointing to me personally, I think I understand the business strategy. While there are a few of us here that really like the game, by all accounts we are in the vast minority. 2K probably feels that are already way too far behind, so rather than try to catch up, finish out this generation by cataring to the Million Dollar challenge crowd. I am guessing that they have the market research to determine how many copies that the promotion sells, and that they make money on it. But they probaby don't feel that there is a ton to gain by dumping alot of investment into development at this point.

I understand that people many think this is underhanded, but I don't. They haven't promoted any new features. The back of the box is the same, the achievements are the same. It has been pretty obvious from the start that this would be a light paint job. And for anyone who doesn't have a recent version of the game, then it is a solid title.

Well this statement isn't totally correct as Harper had his own cyberface in 2k12 and it was a good one. As far as the others your likely right but Cespedes has a generic face in the show as well.

Please do hop in the impressions thread and get in depth on your thoughts no later than 10:30 am eastern standard time.

Will you be doing franchise mode?

I traded my xbox in for a ps3 just for the show sorry boys but after being totally disappointed year after year I finally did something about it... My name is Trevor and I am a survivor of 2k baseball letdown

Awesome so you are done posting in here. Cool!

To me the game looks way more polished.

You can edit ratings in the show....you can't edit graphics in 2k. I wanted to give this game a chance but I just can't. I've seen better graphics on nintendo 64.

That looked pretty good to me.

Hyperbole much?

To me the colors and the commentary are top notch. Even the stadiums look good. I am looking forward to getting this game tomorrow.

# 32 Lovesports @ 03/04/13 03:19 PM

There is no need to defend any game...none of you get the money when I make a purchase so please stop trying to desperately convince yourselves and others that the game is worth a $60 purchase. Give me the $60 and ill send you a 2k12 copy with updated rosters. You guys need to chill. Do you criticize a movie critic when he says a movie isn't that good? No you don't, so don't do it here either. Honestly, both games bring something to the table that the other one doesn't, but it's clear this year that 2k did nothing to improve.

Tone down down the Show talk.

Stay on-topic.

Agree, 2k is a good baseball game but I'll skip this year because it's obvious no improvements were made...thats all I'm saying. Lets stop comparing the two already

I will be picking up 2k13 for the PS3 in my bedroom - sort of my 'before bedtime' or 'before work' game. I'll be getting the Show for my franchise immersion for the PS3 in the home theater and on the Vita.

2K has its strengths. No, it's not graphically what the Show is. However, it's pitching system is truly innovative and the commentary is superb. I'll be getting it for those elements alone.

This happens each and every year.. don't feed them.
