    Re: Demo?

    I'd only bother with the demo if I could tinker with the Play-off mode,
    otherwise, with as great a game as this series has been, there is no way
    I'd miss Show 13, barring I had my arms amputated.
    I wonders could I learn to play the Show with my feet? lmao

      You joke, but with the included ADVA mode, it's probably possible. Yes, they've thought of everything...

          Not sure if The Show will fall under this, but clearly makes sense



          Releasing a game demo may not actually be a very good way to boost game sales; in fact, it could reduce the number of copies you shift by up to half.

            I can appreciate that but that's also only true for a Pre-release demo that shows an inferior product. A good game that ends up going unnoticed gets hurt without a demo IMO. I think releasing a demo after release could be a good strategy as well. You get the early sales and then try to grab the fence sitters later on.

                  I think the poster means most sports games are pretty much the same year after year gameplay wise so a demo is pointless, which is pretty much spot on IMO.

                    What about someone who never played the game before ? Those people do exist.

                      Guys who live in caves in Afghanistan are not worried about the demo. They've pre-ordered as well from intel they've gathered from the "Anyone ordering from Europe" thread.
                      We're good.

                          Roger that sir! I am working in Africa and although we can download demos (takes about a 5 days!), we know its The Show. Besides, as all the other guys said demos aren't usually a good representation, especially when it comes to sports titles.

                          This The Show and 13 looks

                                I think a lot of you don't understand my stance on this issue. I don't care if they release a demo, but I can see it being a good business move for their company if they did. I'm just saying it can't hurt their sales.

                                There is people who just bought a PS3 and there is people who just got into baseball and never played MLB The Show before.

                                Those people are why they made beginner mode.
