    Complaining about people complaining. Oh the irony.

      Are legendary players available in franchise mode, or just DD?

            I have a feeling all of the Big-Time legends everyone wants will come in a DLC pack later

              Awesome! They got Joe Carter in! Loving it! Him hitting the world series winning homerun gives me goosebumps everytime I see it!

                I can't understand why these companies like Nike, UA, etc. (and any other company for that matter) feel the need to charge a game developer to use their logo in game. Yet, they will pay to have their logo placed in a TV broadcast. I would think these companies would want the free advertising. If you are Pepsi and you paid to have your logo up in Yankee Stadium, wouldn't it make sense to allow SCEA to use it in a game as well for free? Especially with the way MLB The Show is actually using some of these companies in the game as advertisements on the score banners and such. Seems like a win-win to let a video game developer use your logo. Am I alone here?

                    Could you imagine how much game developers would have to pay to make a NASCAR, or F1 racing game? With all of the primary, and secondary sponsors on all of the cars, and all of the billboards at the tracks. I know this is way off topic but your post just got me thinking about that.

                      People were complaining big time about name brands last year and now they have signed a deal with the devil - and here comes further commercialization into my beloved game. I bet a big part of the deal was how the equipment is presented - it looks like an ad for each one and each one has a big attribute jump because shoes make you run faster and jump higher. Be careful what you ask for...and please do some analysis before offering an opinion and then hiding behind "it is my opinion" when you haven't accumulated the facts necessary to create a well-informed decision. Alright, off the off-topic soap box and back to my normal self...

                            So I watched this video on my tv now instead of my phone and damn those menus look sleek! We've come a long way the last 2 years.

                              I'm just thinking that if you are sitting on the couch watching a baseball game and see a Fritos add on the outfield wall, you may think about having a snack. Fritos will pay to be on that outfield wall but if a game developer comes along and wants to replicate a stadium, Fritos is going to charge them to use their logo? That doesn't make any sense. I'd be begging to have free advertisement on the outfield wall of MLB the show. Do you know how many people sit there and spend hours of time seeing those adds? Fritos should be paying SCEA to put them in, not the other way around.

                                While you may be right. But those companies have people that run the number to see if it would be worth the cost. If you have to pay say 500k to have your logo in the game. You expect to have enough people buy the product to get that money back.

                                And lets not forget that The Show isnt selling like FIFA, Madden or 2k. I dont think The Show even sells a million copies. Could be completely wrong on that though.
