This is a tough one. SGOTY?* While MLB The Show is a good representation of baseball, imo they just haven't pushed the game well enough into this next gen phase.* And with the problems 2k and EA have been having, the vote gets real muddy. All because of the yearly release.

Sports games are the only genre that have these yearly releases. Because of this, quality and innovation has just not been there. We know WHY they have an annual release, but they don't HAVE to do it. In the end I would probably give my vote to The Show. Sony wins by default which makes it a hollow victory.

Well, first time I haven't gotten thru the entire year playing. Sails lost the wind around middle of August. I was able to quick manage to the end (didn't make the playoffs, so it's shelved).

The game play, in my opinion, is awesome....don't touch it, but with so much time spent on $other$ modes I think the core (presentation/announcing/graphics) has just stalled the game. Unfortunately I don't see this changing. We'll see.

It may be unconventional, but after this year's releases, a site like this would do* a great service to the sports gaming community by announcing that* NO ONE has earned SGOTY this year.

Fact. but dont count my vote because I'm biased, as baseball is my poison of choice. the only thing that keeps me voting Show every year, deservedly or no, is NCAAF no longer exists.

So, fact. Baseball (& the Show by default) is king in the Caulfield Castle.

The Show will have competition for you in a couple of years, or sooner

I really believe competition is a healthy thing to have, and it will be good for the Show if an NCAAF game forced more creativity in San Diego

I don’t play other sports games anymore so I can’t compare but if it is better than the others, it does not automatically make it game of the year material imo. This game is like a veteran in the tail end of his contract. There are flashes of greatness but not nearly as good or reliable as he used to be.
