Re: MLB The Show 18 First Impressions

So I've never been a fan of baseball. It's slow. It seems boring. Just never really got into it. I live in Omaha though and the combination of:

- The College World Series going on down the street from me
- Some friends who have MLB The Show and recommended it
- The game being on sale for $40 on PSN last week

... I decided to buy it. I'm glad I did. This game is SO well made compared to the EA Sports franchises I play (Madden and NHL). Playing it has given me a new appreciation for baseball that I probably never would gotten from making myself sit down and watch games (and fall asleep doing so) on TV. I definitely have loads to learn as far as the game's strategy goes, having never played it growing up, but I'm really happy with my purchase.

Oh yeah! I feel this year when a runner advances on a wild pitch that it's legitimate, though I still throw too many wild pitches.
