Kind of disappointed. I was hoping for something like they had on Madden. I follow everyone on the Yankees on Twitter anyway, so this is no help to me. I even follow Ivan Nova, and all of his tweets are in Spanish. lol

Yeah a bit disappointing, I really thought it would be implemented into franchise to add extra immersion.

Another thing for PS4 then.

cool idea, just hope the players stay classy...just imagine the horror if they post something that may influence or corrupt our children, think of the children.

Ozzie Guillen managing anywhere this year?

JP Arencibia will have a whole new host of accounts to block when even his own teams fans call him a crappy cardboard box of a catcher...

Interesting tho..

LoL god forbid parents actually do their jobs, less emphasists on the celeb and more on parenting.

As far as Twitter goes, I think it would be cool if you could tweet your MLB The Show game results in some fashion to Twitter.

A couple members mentioned Madden. How do they implement it in Madden?

This is a pretty cool idea, and not at all what I expected.

I think an MLB athlete's use of twitter is governed by the MLB code of conduct. If an athlete were to post something insane and offensive, they'd be fined and/or suspended, so I think you can trust you won't be corrupted or something.

And I too expected this to be a "fake twitter" type thing like in NBA 2k. Kinda glad it isn't though, since after about 3 weeks I already read all the possible pre-made tweets, and now that feature is just permanently ignored. Actual and spontaneous posts are more interesting to read imo

This is...kind of pointless. I was hoping for RTTS/Franchise integration.

Have to say that this is disappointing... I agree with those who thought it would be something about our ongoing Franchises - like Madden or NBA 2K. Even MLB 2K's MLB Today homepage with game, player, trade, etc. updates would be a plus.

Gameplay, The Show excels. Graphics, definitely. The small things, absolutely. But with this aspect they continue to fall short. My imagination can only go so far these days .

Still think it will be a great game... So are the newspaper stories about our franchise and one key game now gone too????
