    MLB THE SHOW 19- IS IT WORTH IT?

    Hey guys so this is the first thread I've made on here. Im a HUGE MLB the Show guy. Bought a PS4 over an Xbox one just for the show. Ive had every show from MLB 14 on the Vita to last years version. Ive never skipped on buying it but i see a lot of people not buying it this year due to minimal changes. Im mainly a franchise guy occasional RTTS guy and realize really no changes have been made to the franchise mode. However for those who have it is it worth it? Have trade logic or AI signing logic been tweaked? Are budgets and cash flow still a disaster? I have the money to buy it but i hate the idea of giving SDS my money when they clearly dont listen to us. Do the gameplay changes warrant a purchase or should i just keep 18?

    I would still get it bro, I was going to point out some really cool changes they made regarding RTTS but you said you don't play that mode much so you probably wont care. So I will say this, the contract extensions in Franchise mode is very nice little feature that needed to be there.


    I would also point out that the pitch speeds and fielding have been tweaked, for the better! Uhm, from the few games I played last night, I am really enjoying this one. I know what you mean about Franchise mode as I too am a huge fan of that mode. I wish they would of put more focus on it too, but the gameplay feels really good man, I would get it.

      at a cost of less than 18 cents a day, or $1.25 a week for 52 weeks, I'd say no doubt it's worth every penny, warts & all. Besides, what else am I gonna do with my money? Send it to Sally Struthers, or Sarah McLachlan?

          I don’t think that an argument can be made that the gameplay is the same.

          Some of the features such as Franchise have not changed besides some minor installments.

          I personally was on the fence and I am glad that I decided to say f it and buy.

            Exactly, gameplay is very apparent to be more refined than 18, u can feel it immediately

              I'm waiting until price drop for sure. Games are not worth full price.

                    Actually, I think going forward, its gonna be a tough sell to hardcores. I really think casual gamers wont have near the reason to critique the Show.

                        If you need to be convinced, don't buy it.

                          50 / 50 @ best. Like new graphics and stale commentary. Sure it's a buy. Cera angles that are new are cool... But three years of same commentary is getting EA like big-time !!

                          Yes it was worth it so far... But the online modes are wonky at times still.

                            I had a $5 coupon at Gamestop and traded in another game so I was able to get if for $49 after tax.

                            Watching NHL TV on one screen, and MLB 19 the Show is playing a demo game on another screen. The game looks real when they are playing on the field. I'm very very impressed.

                            My vote is YES, it's worth it. I bought the standard edition as in my opinion a lot of the pre-order special bonus items you can earn through putting your time in playing the game. I prefer franchise mode the most so I wasn't overly concerned with getting a bunch of packs, I figure I'll earn those in time.

                              That’s why I never personally liked these threads. Asking others who probably have a totally different take than you is a blind gamble, no different then if you just bought the game and tried it.

                              Don’t like it? Sell locally for $45 or eBay for almost your money back.
