This review sucks. Where is the mention of home Run Derby? How about the fact that you can create your own custom chants, set music as batter walk up music, reliever entrance music, music when you win games etc...?

Where is the mention that there is more variety in hits? I have hit bloopers and balls into gaps that wasn't possible before.

What about the fact that when relievers come in you get 8 pitches for warm up pitches?

Where is the mention in the improvements to RTTS when it comes to positive results? Things that should have been considered positive results before were not, and now are.

Instead of just throwing a crap load of gimmicks (Like MLB 2K games and their crappy analog pitching gimmick), they polished the game. Seems like some people just want change for the sake of change. You don't need to change a whole hell of a lot when you already have the best simulation baseball game there is. If it isn't broken, don't fix it (MLB 2K games have to keep adding stuff to gloss over the fact that the game sucks).

MLB 2K games have a whole hell of a lot of glitches as well (Hitting a ball of the green monster where the ball sticks to the wall).

MLB 10 may have bugs too, but they get fixed quickly, and are less common. You were way easier on MLB 2K 10, and that game is not even close to being on this games level.

Timing meter > gimmicky analog controls

The commentary may be repetitive (Hey just like every other sports game), but it still is the best commentary in a baseball game. I love seeing my batter walk up to the plate and be announced as "2nd basemen, Jeremy Gordon" (My name), gives me chills every time.

The review is a little absurd. The reviewer is penalizing the game for features it didn't add, rather than reviewing the game for what it is.

The bottom line is -- MLB 09 was a 9.5, and MLB 10 is an even better game than that.

They really, really, REALLY need to do something about the commentary. It's the worst part of the game right now. Everything is disjointed and there's no chemistry between the 3 cuz they record all their lines seperately. That's just unacceptable now.

The game is amazing otherwise. But, we gotta match everything up now. Step it up, SCEA!

pretty disappointing review

seems like a lot of it was saying why don't they have mechanics from 2k10 but better :-/

Wow. Reviews on OS are getting just as bad as any other outlet. I used to use OS more than any other source for their reviews. Ah, the good ole days....

Raven Nation42 · 03-11-2010, 04:19 AM

A great review!!! I do have to agreed with some of the other posters that I love the commentary and think it's spot on. I am going to take your suggestion to review the vault more to view the polish graphics of this game.

Madden 10 - rated a 9

MLB 10 The Show - rated an 8.5

Seriously?
