    Is this game worth it?

    Hey guys, I have been interested in baseball ever since I played as a kid, I moved on to basketball and have been playing for the past 6 years. I still have a faint interest in baseball so I was thinking this game might be a chance for me to enjoy my old favorite past time.

    I haven't played a baseball video game since MVP 02 or something like that on my psp. I currently spend most of my time playing NBA 2k11, and its getting a little old.

    This means I would be rather easy to please, but it seems like they shipped an unfinished game and that kind of worries paying 60 dollars for a game with so many glitches in it.

    I have decided I am either gonna pick up Fifa 11 or MLB 2k11 tomorrow, and I know Fifa 11 is a well reputed game with little errors. But my history with baseball is making me really want to fall in love with this game.

    My question to you guys is this. Is this game worth buying NOW? Is it worth waiting for the bugs to be fixed and perhaps the price to drop. Would I be better getting a cheaper Fifa 11 with little to no problems in that game?

    Also how fun would this game be for a newcomer to baseball games and someone who is used to playing a fast paced game like basketball?

    I appreciate you taking the time to read this

    The game is worth buying. If they patch the fatigue bug in franchise, you'll be playing this game a lot.

    The game will feel unfinished no doubt, but if you can over look some of the oddities you will find a fun baseball game

      I hope that bug gets fixed, I've been reading about it and it seems like it ruins franchise mode in its current state. I am a huge fan of franchise and I can't wait to win San Diego a world series.

      I think I might give it a try, seeing as how I love baseball more than soccer, and I wouldn't be as picky as all these guys complaining seeing as how they probably buy it every year and this is my first time.

      Thanks for your thoughts, I would appreciate anything anyone else has to say!

      Also, with the current bugs and such. What would be the best mode to play in when I first get the game? Association seems unusable, and I really want to play My Player, are there any big bugs in that game mode?

        I'm seeing enough good stuff in the game that makes me feel it was worth it for me. Though it's undeniably in need of some work, and I get the feeling that the lack of polish may eventually overwhelm the good. But for now I'm enjoying it, and see myself getting my money's worth, simply because the good in the game really is good.

          I really like this years game, but there are some bugs(freezing) that gets a little annoying. But the good out weigh the bad, at least for me. The announcers are just the best in any sports game to date. The hitting and
          pitching are so much fun and also has a nice learning curve to it.

          I am sure that we will another patch in the coming months to fix the bugs.
          So I do feel this game is worth it!!
