    I have a Series X and usually buy the deluxe edition, but this year I will be opting for the free Game Pass edition since I don't need the extra DD stuff and I can play the tech test up until the standard edition comes out if that's how it works again this year.

    Don't get me wrong, I'm still excited. But WWE 2K comes out the week before and I'll spend my money on that instead of both.
    Less than that if you use the converting from Gold trick!

      Def color me not impressed this year

      No Year to Year Saves
      No Roster or Stadium carry overs
      No graphical upgrades
      No Player Model updates
      No New Face scans
      No new grass or dirt (i remember MVP you could at least choose grass design)

      And they want $70 for a Roster update and 1 new game mode?

      Its getting sad to think a game I once loved and got excited to play every year is No Longer

      Thankfully EA Golf comes out same week

      May wait this year til Price drop- Truly Sad

        Haven't played The Show in years, but I'm kind of shocked to see that the grass still looks that bad. That was always my main issue with the graphics. Might sound like a minor complaint, but it always bothered me. This is a PS5 game, sheesh.

            after the first impressions, i am very disappointed that the graphics have not been changed. so iI see no reason to buy the game. i'll stick with the 22er version and keep playing my francise and rtts.

            the game manufacturers just get away with it and have no pressure to change anything. the sales figures speak AGAINST any improvements or changes. sportgames shouldn't have longterm motivation for us to buy a new version every year.


            maybe next year or the year after that or when the PS 7 or 8 is out. :wink:

              Ok I love what they did with the throwing meter, this was much needed and makes fielding so much more dynamic and exciting.

              Besides some UI changes and fresh paint here and there the graphics are once again exactly the same. As long as they keep this crossplay thing going between all consoles we’re just not getting anything better than this or the ps4’s will choke up. For a reason there haven’t been a graphical stream the last couple of years…

              Hopefully everyone can get their hands on a ps5 or xbox series x this year so the install base is big enough to finally let console support go for machines that are now 10 years old!

                Adding the DH in DD is definitely an improvement. In 22 even with American League teams DD had the pitcher batting.

                In regard to Franchise and historic rosters I am left with a number of questions.

                Will we still be able to choose no DH?

                Will we be able to edit quirks when editing a player?

                Will we be able to edit a player to make him two way from the start?

                Will they be adding a lot more last names to the depleted last name database?

                Will we be able to choose no batting helmet or no number on the jersey? (In DD there are several historic players without numbers)

                We will see when we get to the presentation on Franchise, but I suspect it will be mostly or entirely about the revisions in the draft.

                With 22 I took a break from Franchise and played mostly DD out of frustration of the lack of Y2Y roster saves. It was fun, but with moments it seemed more like an arcade than playing normal baseball.

                  This gameplay feature has cemented the fact I won’t buy this game. And honestly being an owner of a Series X, I don’t feel compelled to pay for GamePass to play it either. It’s been the same game for years. Growing bored of it. Say what you want about Madden, but their graphics and presentation are great. And they’ve been adding to gameplay. Really addition ls. Not just tweaks.

                    I've watched the stream a couple times now. Honestly I'm less impressed with it every time I watch it. I had really hoped for more this year. I'm going to buy the game just for the new playoff format, and new schedule. If it weren't for that, no way I'd pay 70 dollars on what is basically still a PS3 game. Just for reference, here is MLB 12 The Show on PS3. Enjoy.

                        Cracks me up that people are STILL holding out for some kind of graphical jump like SNES to N64 and N64 to GameCube/Xbox. Lol those jumps are never happening again. Time to move past it or you’re going to be perpetually disappointed.

                          I dont really pay much attention to gameplay and new fielding stuff just doesnt excite me... I really just want them to add more history to franchise mode like player awards/transaction history ie trade, callup, sent down/ minor league stats/ post season stats sticking to each player profile page...then a franchise history page where we see past world series winners/losers/box scores of game/etc...to me this seems simple to add a column and track these things, its a basic thing that would create a world of difference for immersion in franchise

                            You can look at other sports games, and then compare it to this one and tell that it isn't where it needs to be graphically. I agree jumps like you were talking about will never happen again. But when this looks identical to a PS3 game, there are problems.

                              Except for a select few it seems the majority who have posted are very disappointed in what they have seen so far. I would say I wish the game makers could see this but with no forced competition not sure it would matter.

                              So next up is DD. Never really got into this mode but I know it brings them in some cash for sure.

                                Don't get me wrong, I love this game, and will love it this year as well I'm sure. It's still a fantastic game. But I'd say, yes I'm disappointed from what I saw yesterday. I was more so disappointed when I found the PS3 version that looks basically identical to the game we're going to be getting next month on a PS5. I play other games that look so beautiful on a PS5, and then when I fire up the Show it feels like I'm stepping back into 2012. I know this game is nowhere near where it could/should be at this point and it just makes me sad to a point.
