Re: Better than the real thing?

I like real baseball until my O's begin to tank. Usually May/June.
Then I like The Show because it's like a do-over for the franchise

Re: Better than the real thing?

OP, are you asking if I'd rather WATCH a game of The Show vs WATCH a real game?

If that's the question, then obviously I'd rather watch a real game. However, if it comes down to watching a real game on TV or PLAYING a game of The Show, then I'd rather play The Show.

Of course, GOING to a game trumps them all.

Re: Better than the real thing?

Being a control freak... gotta say playing the show. Many times while watching the Nats play on tv, I wish that I had a controller in my hand!! Now if you had PLAYING baseball that would be different.

It's hard watching a full game anymore. The strike zone has become ridiculous in size. I would like to see the Show's version of the strike zone transferred to actual MLB games. Games can last 4 hours now.

Re: Better than the real thing?

No; live baseball is the best, followed by baseball on radio/television, followed by the Show. However, the Show is a nice supplement to real baseball.
