As a fairly casual gamer, I ask is it fun? That's really about it.
-A game is not fun, if I absolutely can't do something that can be done in real life.
-I keep notice players reacting, moving, and playing like they know what's coming,
or are simply way too good at any one thing
-The balance is way too off.
-Or there're a whole bunch of meters, power ups, completely diff. mechanics for

Let me say this, my non-sports title gaming is horribly limited. I tried Halo, wasn't my thing. I'm more of a fantasy RPG type guy when it comes to my non-sports gaming. I beat Grandia II on Dreamcast, and loved Lost Odyssey on 360.

That being said there are 2 titles in my new ps3 that are getting close to equal time. Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, and MLB: The Show 10. For the sake of this blog, I'm going to talk about graphics & movement.

My impressions: ballparks play waaaaaay to small like MLB on the ps1...everything was a single or HR. I hit one double off the wall. The "very early swing" text that I can't find a way to turn off, totally ruins immersion for me. ...

I've been thinking about this, and want to know if you guys follow me. I am not a CD guy , and basically nobody knows who I am, and I can barely use facebook. But I have a theory, about what as MMChris says, makes the Show a victim of it's own success. I think that because they have such a deep, huge game, it's incredibly difficult for them to make changes.

I'll contrast with Madden, instead of MLB 2K because it's a more fair comparison. You'll see why in a minute. When the...
