this was a tough call for me. I thoroughly enjoyed 19 but I voted 16. the player dead hollow ''zombie''eyes in 16 (& from previous years) were finally fixed in 17, my personal biggest issue with 16.

now, having said that, I'm currently replaying a season in Show 14, and honestly, I could have spent the last 7 years playing 14 if money had been any issue. here's to hoping I enjoy Show 20-29 as much as I did Show 10-19. great job San Diego Studios!

As opposed to some other sports games there are many really good years to choose from here.Some early,some late.I have really enjoyed 18 and 19 though but this one takes some thought.

I've honestly only played 10-14 and 17-19 and missed the beginning of the DD era. Granted I will say 17 was my favorite as my RTTS player was a monster and I loved the soundtrack. The transfer to 18 was tough as my player was above the ratings caps but lead to a fairly slow decline to attributes as my player got into his twilight years (I won 11/12 MVPs playing on dynamic difficulty mostly Legend level).

I'm looking forward to the next decade of MLBTS!

17 - took the biggest leap in gameplay realism.

17 is still my favorite, gameplay was the most balanced IMO. Last 2 years feel “off” to me as far as gameplay . If it wasn’t for graphics I would still just play 17 but graphics made such a big leap in 18 that I have a hard time going back now So I find myself just trying different things trying to make 19 work but mainly just getting frustrated. I will admit that the show is the best sports game out there for me but that unfortunately doesn’t make it good. If SDS could do a few things for me in 20 please make pitching harder overall, never get realistic walks and when I miss down the middle the cpu just hits deep foul balls and weak pop ups too often. And on offense please fix the cpu pitchers giving up way too many walks . These adjustments would really improve the gameplay experience.

Was a tough choice.

I was close to picking 12 just because I feel like that was the last time Franchise for any real attention.

14 was tempting because of the addition of year to year saves.

In the end I went with 16. It still basically ignored franchise (and the series continues to do so), but it was the start of a long string of great on the field improvements. Plus, I finally got to close the roof.

This was a tough choice for me, especially between '14 and '19, but in the end I chose '14.

The introduction of the Year to Year saves is still the single greatest addition to franchise in any sports game. The fact that I can continue a franchise that I become heavily invested in year after year is a feature that will be tough to top for me personally.

I think '19 is the best playing game and for me, gameplay is, and always will be king. No matter what features may be included, if the game isn't enjoyable on the field then nothing else matters.

But I have found the gameplay to be enjoyable each and every year, except for '17 which I eventually set out and played '16, so I thought what addition outside of gameplay trumps the other releases, and for me that was year to year saves.
