No offense, but that makes no sense to me. You are going to switch from one known game to a game that has NOTHING behind it except TP, which was a totally piece of crap. Switching to High Heat or All Star would have made sense, but I see the EA bandwagon is in motion and folk are jumping on that title just because it's from EA. It CAN'T be because of screen shots and movies. Overall, it just looks better than Triple Play and does some nice new things in the interface that I think other games should do. However, after being bitten in the arse by EA too many times with their idea of baseball, I think I'd fall to one of the other 3 titles until I know for a FACT that MVP is worth a damn.
What will it take for people to stop trusting EA to make the "greatest whatever game" out there!?!? Only Tiger Woods and, of course, the football games are any good. Why does EA get the benefit of the doubt? Yes, they've done this for a while, but that's not saying much considering that for the longest time, they've been the only company able to just throw money at products just for the sake of being to say they've done it for a while.
Now, don't get me wrong, I'm not anti-EA... Well, not yet anyway. They are the #1 publisher for a reason. They know what they are doing. MOST of what they do is pretty damned heavy handed and that's something I don't like. I would rather they dominated MORE by making the best products. In some cases, they do. I look at my PC collection and I can honestly say that right now C&C Generals and Medal of Honor are the bomb! SimCity4 is cool. Looking at my console ttiles, Madden, NCAA are the ****e. If more of their sports title were of equal quality, I could see this brand loyalty. But Triple Play was by far the WORST sports title for a LONG time in the baseball realm. All Star was terrible too. But High Heat was good. By now, it should have been the dominant baseball but it's not. TP still competed and that tells me that there are MANY EA sheep out there.
To the person I'm quoting, this isn't meant to offend you.
