    MLB The Show 20. Is It Good?

    Especially being on sale for $10. I will play mainly offline. Or is there a better version for cheaper or almost equal prices? Thanks.

      I dunno if you'll be able to find a better game for $10, and I'm not talking about just baseball games.

          Do it! It's probably the best sports game in years.

            At $10 its value definitely exceeds the price of admission.

              Absolutely. It was worth it when it was 60 bucks let alone 10.

                For the mode I play which is franchise manage mode it is great although not without problems.

                I can't speak to other modes.

                  The game has some warts. Example(s): bunting in offline games is completely useless. 99% of the time expect a rocket bunt to transpire which more often than not results in the base runner being thrown out at second and double plays on these rocket bunts happen fairly frequently. Another wart is that when playing games in the field in RTTS (or player lock in Franchise) when the infield shifts for certain batters, your player often does not shift to the desired place on the field even if you have the "auto-shift" feature enabled thus leaving your player out of position and unable to make the play. There are other warts as well. With that said, it is an outstanding game especially if you can pick it up for $10.

                    The game is amazing and I concur with my friend here on the bunting.. please fix the bunting already!!

                    Maybe it’s tied into the players bunting ratings but I’ve never done enough testing to figure it out.

                      I had a franchise going last year where I played MoM (Manage Only Mode) games meaning I myself am not trying to bunt, the player and their bunting ratings are in control and I even jacked all of my starting pitchers to have 99 bunting ratings and it made little difference. Bunting is broken in this game all to prevent it from being exploited in Diamond Dynasty online games.

                      But even if bunting is broken and there are other warts, it's still an outstanding game and well worth $10.

                        Yes!!! $10 is a steal, I bought it at full price and a PS4 also, it is that good.

                          This is the only sports game out right now that I’ll happily pay full price for year after year.

                          Wish the other sports games would get on this level!

                            Topside: I haven't looked it into yet, but I think you may have figured out the "rocket" bunting.

                            Since you input BOTH Bunting and Drag Bunting ratings MAYBE if you have a higher Drag Bunting/Bunting ratings the "rocket" bunts will calm down.

                            Just my $.02
                            I am the way
                            I am the light
                            I am the dark inside the night.
                            I hear your hopes
                            I feel your dreams
                            And in the dark I hear your screams
                            Don't turn away, Just take my hand
                            I'll never leave, All I ask of you, Is Believe.

                            Believe
