Now that's a sales pitch.

Yeah, not exactly a ringing endorsement, eh?

I'm trying to like this game, but a few hours ago I got five-hit by the AA Springfield Cardinals...

They made a lot of changes, particularly in franchise and training which made the game unnesarily complicated, like training exercises and the 40-man rosters.

This is a game for the hardcore baseball simheads maybe, not the casual gamer... however it did grow on me eventually after sitting in the box for a month...

A friend of mine has the '08 version of the Show and seems to like it. Maybe its because he only paid $10 for it.
What changes were made for the '09 game? How much do you want?

It's the first version of the game I've ever played, so I've no idea what changed.

My two games yesterday were far more enjoyable...actually hit some home runs...at this moment, it would take a pretty decent offer to get me to sell it...I'm sure I'll be posting a few days from now saying I hate the game again and will likely sell it for shipping... :wink:

Games are way more complicated than they used to be. It takes months to get really good...I'm guessing MLB 09 is no different.
I'm still trying to figure out how to be really good at COD4, but I don't think thats gonna happen. I need a new game to suck at.

Mike, have you seen the trailer for Modern Warfare 2? What are your thoughts.

I think that will be a great game to suck at... :lol:

Yep, saw the trailer. But I guess I'm only interested in the online part of the game so it doesn't really give me much of a preview. I'm sure I'll play the "regular" game too, but that'll be over in about 6 hours....after that, I'll start a new chapter of sucking at Call of Duty online.
Til then, maybe I'll put COD4 back in the box and dust off GTA IV again. I think I'm only about 30% finished with that.
