Re: MLB The Show 16 Video - Battle Royale and Conquest Modes (Gamestop)

Personally, between the wife, our young kids, work, life, etc., I was relieved to hear that these games will only be 3 innings. Probably the biggest reason I didn't get into DD this year was the single game time commitment. I am primarily a franchise player and will get my simulation 9 inning fix there when I have the time, but this will be a great option when time is limited.

If it works well, these could potentially become my go-to secondary modes this year and replace my time in RTTS.

Both of these modes look amazing. I really have to give a slow clap to SCEA this year on their complete revamp of Diamond Dynasty. My biggest gripe with DD, besides the lack of special cards (which they added this year) was the 50 minute on average games I had to play. It just wasn't enjoyable for a casual gamer like me that doesn't have much time.

These 3 inning games in Battle Royale are perfect. Pretty much exactly what I was recommending last year. I don't agree with people's concerns that 3 innings will result in a base stealing cheesefest (especially since they stated that they eliminated bunting and steal abuse) but we'll see. They can always increase the mode to 5 innings next year if it turns out to be a problem.

It's going to be a long wait until the end of the month.

I love the sound of both of them. I think somebody will probably come up with something similar, but to my knowledge, Conquest is completely unique to sports games. It sounds amazing.

Lol ShowTyme, got mine a week early last year... maybe I'll get lucky again. I've been saving up just in case I have to pay the price.
