God damnit. Guess I have to buy a ps4 now

I know how you feel, joedogg! I didn't necessarily have any "expectations" for this game. Didn't know what the heck to expect, but I certainly HOPED for a "real" baseball game. I already told myself if this was a "real" game, I was going to get it no matter how good/bad. But as everyone suspected, it turns out to be a very cool reboot of an old NES game. Unfortunately, that's just not going to satisfy my baseball needs this year.

(by "real", I mean something close to 2k or the show. You guys know what I mean!)

sure, Its not 1985 and Im not 8 years old anymore tell that to the xboxone crowd here that does not have a true baseball sim

Then buy MLB The Show, this is a retro game and part of a retro title is to capture what made the original series unique. And a big part of RBI was the simplistic graphics and simplistic play backed by a fantastic stats engine.

Let's face it, if they had went the super realistic, scan-all-the-players route, etc then everyone would have just screamed it was a crappier version of MLB The Show that was trying to trick people into buying by using an old school NES name.

It'd have been a massive failure and rightfully so...they made the right call on this..

Not to sound like a dick but they made the choice when next gen came out to go the XBone route. It was pretty clear leading up to November last year that the show would be the only game of baseball in town. That is what made me get a PS4 over the XBone.

When they say season mode, is it really just one season? Or multiple like a traditional franchise?

I don't know....but with less than 25 man rosters....I can't see how it could be much more than a one and done.
(Maybe with no injuries or trading and retiring)
Unless they plan on expanding it.

Ah, nvm, I didn't read the roster part. I think I still might try this out.

16 man rosters. I love not having to worry about 100 players in my system. I think the Show had the perfect number at 40 though.

Yeah the show is like that but most dont play enough to notice its huge flaws and as I said before MLB 2k at the end was pretty fun and very interactive but visually I just couldnt accept it .

Wow. I thought the graphics were great.

MLB 2k ? I have it on par with what High heat was player graphic wise on the ps2 .
Mlb 2k series was doomed financially (see coach madden) and frame rate wise and thats why they had to cut the graphic quality after MLB 2k7 as it was pretty good looking for the time but unstable and a few other things .

It then went backwards player graphic wise after 2008 and the Ben B experience and gameplay wise didnt get back intil 2011-12 IMO .

Not my cup of tea right now but not much info either but RBI looks like it could have a old school feel of where skill , attributes and stats might actually matter and fun and real interaction matter a lot to me in playing a sports game unless some are just planning to watch it then they might be pretty disappointed .
