Loving 10-16 since I'm a big franchise guy and will be focusing on building another Yankees dynasty by infusing youth into the organization! I'll play the virtual '13 season with the current guys, but after that, A-Rod, Jeter, Grandy, Kuroda, Pettitte, Mo, maybe CC & Tex, all gone. No matter how much it hurts.

Re: MLB 13 The Show Fact Sheet

I may be reaching here, but does this mean that places like Busch Stadium will have correct players on the outfield wall?

If I remember correctly, SCEA does not have the rights to those players' likenesses, so we will not see that. Same reason we no longer have the Gold/Silver Era retro teams.

Re: MLB 13 The Show Fact Sheet

Great list. Was hoping to see CPU controlled teams calling up or sending down players based on performance as one of the 50 improvements. Does this mean this is unchanged for this coming year?

Re: MLB 13 The Show Fact Sheet

Maybe I'm in the minority, but I'm a little bummed at this list. I'm a big RTTS player, and honestly it doesn't look like they've done that much to enhance the off the field presence. Great, some new looks at fielding a ball, and less commentary (which I'm not a fan of.) Kind of a let down.

I'll still be getting the game, but I was hoping this would be the year that they really took RTTS to the next level.

Re: MLB 13 The Show Fact Sheet

I hope my Gamestop does a midnight release for Tomb Raider... cause I need this game at midnight. Fact Sheet didn't disappoint. I'm pumped!

This just sent me on a hunt for other games coming out on the 5th - I can't believe SimCity is releasing on the same day as the Show. And - worse - Starcraft 2 Heart of the Swarm a week later.

Oh, my poor, poor wallet....and I'm not even a God of War fan (which also releases on the 12th).

Re: MLB 13 The Show Fact Sheet

Can anyone expand on the 'new' player progression engine being implemented in franchise?

The Fact Sheet didn't expand on the subject.

Re: MLB 13 The Show Fact Sheet

30 and 39 are the same.

Only 49 facts??? What a disappointment.

Re: MLB 13 The Show Fact Sheet

1-16, 35, 42-44 have me especially pumped. I'm intrigued about how Twitter will be used (if it's a presentational aspect like in Madden, then awesome. If it's simply linkage to Twitter through the game-which is my expectation-then, ehh...not for me).

I'm also curious about the "silhouette bat while bunting." Hopefully that is more than a cosmetic thing and involves an overhaul of the user control.

As usual, good stuff. As a bonus, it sounds like a lot of the franchise upgrades have some promising long-range implications as well.

Only 49 facts??? What a disappointment.

You can slide foul tip outs in one of those slots. Hopefully that is still in!

changes to franchise also affect rtts.
