They do, but last year I was already sick of the commentary by day 3 or 4. I just feel like it's been the same base for 7 years, and they add a couple random lines and openers each year. Oh well, hopefully by next year the new system will improve these very small aspects of the game.

Re: MLB 13 The Show gameplay video
Don't get me wrong, this game looks great. Commentary doesn't have any real effect on how I would rate this game. I just wish the commentary was more in depth. There will always be one part of a game that people complain about, it's how it is, but in no way did this video make the game "disappointing."Comment

I def agree. I wonder if The Show Live will be any improvement as they are supposed to have up to date commentary each game.Comment

Re: MLB 13 The Show gameplay video
I have a feeling that commentary is just going to be a random update each game about how they did in the previous game or something record wise. Commentary relating to previous seasons for players, player backgrounds/history, etc is something I think would be a huge addition. I just hope a complete overhaul of this section of the game is done when they release for the PS4.Comment

i agree 300% with slthree their is no excuse for the commentary to be so dry year after year just terrible.....a baseball game can get pretty boring without good commentary to help keep you going IMO.That's mostly why I rather play mlb2k cause their commentary is way better just not the overall package.Comment

Yea, I can't see them sitting the team down daily to record a few lines of commentary.Comment

That's probably a good idea because if you didn't. . . well, I'll leave that up to your imagination.Comment

Here's my thing with commentary. People who expect real life commentary are never going to be satisfied with any commentary in a video game. The problem, there is a finite number of lines you can put into a game due to limits on memory and such, however, in real life, you have an infinite number of things you can say. For example, let's say that everyone on you team gets a hit in the first inning, how do you expect the Show to have 9 different variations of "------ hits a single"? You can't because you don't have the room. Also, Bryce Harper getting his 8th homerun of the season is a lot less exciting than a walkoff in the bottom of the ninth, so how can you record different excitement levels for the same line, this takes space and maybe the PS4 will allow more of this, but I still wouldn't get my hopes up. As a human I have millions of words that I can arrange to make a sentence, but in the Show they record sentences and have to fit them into what happens on the game. Until they can just have a list of words and combine them in any combination, it will not change. They can do this now, but then it would sound very robotic......think Steven Hawking!!
I am just happy that the gameplay improves every year and that I can shut off the commentary and just listen to the ballpark sounds.
As a side note, I find it really funny that people complain about the lousy commentary and yet when word came that RTTS was dropping some commentary for a better "on the filed experience" the same people were like...."Oh noes, what about the commentary????"Comment

Player models are exactly the same. In fact, for fun I played MLB 10 the show last night and realized that the player models have barely changed in 3 years. I bet you couldnt tell which year I was playing if I posted a video. But that's neither here or there. The game is great but the commentary is weak. There is no need to defend it...its just plain and boring. Im still buying it thoughComment

Re: MLB 13 The Show gameplay video
Its understandable though that to some the game would look like a roster update. The gameplay has not been redone, it does look very similar. Its the little things that were changed and they are noticed by a lot of people. But at a broad look I can see where people are coming from. If you look more closely as you are suggesting its easy to see improvements, especially on such a short development cycle.Comment
