I just don't get EA Sports. I just don't get them.
They always try to emphazie the highlite reel of sports. In their games usually the most exciting or rewarding plays in real life are abused in their games.
So here comes MVP. They put Randy Johnson on the cover and emphasis that you can get 15'ks with the new pitching meter because it's the one the draws the user closer to the gameplay.
Okay fine, but why then did they make it so pitcher's tire so easily. I don't get this one. What possible arcade reason would they have for the CPU AI to pull the star pitcher's in the 4-5 innings when they are throwing an absolute gem. Or even giving up a few runs here and there but nothing that should send in the releiver.
If the emphasis on this was the pitching and batting, then I don't get this flaw. Plus let's say the average user is playing this game. Not any of us harden gamers just some Joe that plays maybe once in a while. If you are a causal gamer but a baseball fan, wouldn't you want to the ability to throw nine innings. Wouldn't you expect this.
Chaulk this up to either a flaw that they couldn't fix because it would cause 20 other more balance issues. Or EA Sports just being EA Sports and passing it off as that's fine.
