ESPN VS MVP

Re: ESPN VS MVP

In the past I have bought All Star Baseball, but the inclusion of all AA and AAA teams has me leaning towards buying MVP this year. Maybe this feature is why alot of other people are excited about this game as well.

Re: ESPN VS MVP

I love the idea... probably the best idea since franchise mode, maybe even better (because of the inclusion of Team Chemistry aswell). HOWEVER, if it's the same game (no new engine or whatever) with poorly rated players, it still has the major league feel. It's hard to explain, I posted it somewhere else too (not on this forum) that's a lot more in depth. I mean, I understand that people love the feature, but when they say it adds to gameplay, well, that's only that you can see how they're doing physically, and that's it. There are no other gameplay elements involved in it. Maybe they will use a new engine for it next year, and that would be AWESOME!

Like I said, possibly the best idea since franchise mode!

PLEASE live up to the hype!!!!!!!

Between EA, IGN and now OS, there has been something new to look at and talk about with MVP each day for the past 2-3 weeks. Hell, IGN has made available an entire game to watch. When's the last time that's happened? MLB, in the meantime, has come out with a whopping one batch of videos recently. ASB and ESPN have been pretty silent as well, except for a weekly or so press release that shows a handful of screens and 3-4 videos, if we're lucky. That might explain the difference in number of posts. There's just nothing else to really talk about on other boards right now. That's my 2 cents anyways.

True, completely agree, but even when ESPN, ASB, or MLB DO get any new information, you still see a 15:1 ratio even in views or posts from MVP to the other boards.

I don't think I completely understand what you're trying to say Muffin.

Are you talking about the minors feature or the team chemistry feature?
