    It's a safe, if a bit of an unpopular decision which I think will make sense.

    No way that's true, the MLB the Show team doesn't have the licence for minor league players, so all of the minor league players are fake generated guys.

    But there is a roster vault, and every year guys on OS make a roster with all of the real life minor league players and upload it to the vault. No problem.

        This would sound a lot better if they swapped release years with Fight Night.

        Cool they'll be adding fighters between proper releases. Not cool that folks will be waiting almost 2 years for additions & improvments, especially fundamental things like feints & catching kicks.

        Hopefully this somehow means the next release will be that much better.

          Sounds good. Hopefully, they go with the original plan, which was to release a UFC, then a Fight Night, back and forth, etc. I can deal with a UFC, but what I personally want to get my hands on is a current gen Fight Night.

            And If the Minor league players ever wanted to file a suit like the O'Bannon case, believe me, roster vaults would be gone from the show as well.

              Exactly. Two things are behind this:

              1) The O'bannon case scared the hell out of EA and they dont want defend against another likeness lawsuit even though the law is technically on their side.

              2) They had a run-in with the UFC when it came to EA MMA's Fighter Share. When the UFC realized there were thousands of versions of fighters under UFC contracts that were downloadable through Fighter Share, they sent EA a cease and desist letter. EA responded by not only removing most of those fighters but removing the audio that announcers used to call them their names.

              In the pre-patched version of the game, announcers would say "St. Pierre" or "Lesnar". In the patched version, those audio files were gone.

                Every sports title from EA should have this same cycle. Might actually see innovation instead of recycled stuff for 8 yrs.

                    The rumor is that it's 99, but I'm not sure if that's official yet.

                    Personally, I'm dying for some more news.
