now Pirates tickets are probably more than 5 bucks. they`re like the only baseball team i feel sorry for, what with 20 straight losing seasons and all.
@crazymiles Does it really make a difference if it is one or not? All the annual sportsgames are somehow similiar, no matter if they are from EA or Take 2 or from whomsoever.
Do any modern baseball games have retro team features that let you play the Washington Nationals as the Montreal Expos in the Olympic Stadium? If not, I'll stick with my copy of World Series Baseball 2K1 on the Sega Dreamcast, where the Expos play forever.
@bgardner104 sorta, the nfl stated that they only wanted to offer their licence for 1 developer so their would only be one game out there with the thinking if we only offer 1 licence it will be easier to manage that way and ea made the better offer, and i suppose from a business stand point its fine cause madden sells lots of copies and has a high profit margin. but since they spend most of their budget on advertising rather then game development the game has suffered from it
Home run derby = Wii Sports baseball with better graphics Personally i think its lame and agree with Mark, it could easily work with all of the game. Money money money.
@Theriot6592 ok then look through his videos there are a few he mentions he is lives in the pittsburgh area and he also talks about things happening in pittsburgh or just message him
@MrFag12345 lol it's not laziness. It's the fact that if you made 40 000+ people crowds look as detailed and smooth as the players, the console wouldn't be able to run it.
"When you put the playstation move logo on the packaging, it implies that it works with the entire game" That's hardly ever the case. For example, LBP 2 has the move logo on it but you can only use it in the "prehistoric moves" levels and really its only for 2 players. Plus you cant make levels with move functionality. Studios arent willing to invest that much effort into Move games because they could flop much easier than a game with standard controls.
Surely it's not because they want it running at a smooth framerate and higher detailed crowds would be too much for pitiful console hardware to handle.
Come on. EA and Sony need to make an update so that the "Move" can be used for the entire game. Playing this online with 3D and the "Move" would be epic.
@5k4k1dhtp because its baseball. you think its bad in a video game try listening to a game on the radio they pretty much sell every pitch. i know each inning is sold and home runs are pre sold its actually quite annoying
1.) Opening Day is finally here! Go Tigers! (And Red Wings) 2.) It took seeing this video for me to know that Lyle Overbay was still in the league. 3.) Yes, Robocop would win against the A-Team. That's why they're building a statue of him in Detroit. 4.) I like the femullet on that one chick.
@MrFag12345 Dude... they HAVE been worked on. It wasn't until this generation that the crowd people were actually made up of polygons (not just a flat sprite), and actually REACT to balls hit into the stands, or just simply react to what's going on in the game.
just a sidenote. When reviewing a game one of the things to make sure you accomplish is actually informing the viewers ABOUT THE GAME. Don't get me wrong, you can post what ever you want on youtube but you should probably title this "failed stand up routine".
It's worse than selling a cheeseburger without cheese... it's like selling an FPS game on the PC without a server list, dedicated server, or mod support. Oh wait, that's already been done.
@crazymiles Maybe because pretty much every easports game has the numbers like that at the end of the title. FIFA 11, NHL, 11 and Madden 11. Also why you calling them pieces of shit? Thats hardly somethhing u would do.
Stop busting on the Pirates! They're going to win it all this year!* *Disclaimer: By winning it all I mean a 60+ win season, which would feel like winning it all, except,... without all the winning and playoff garbage. Keep hope Bucco faithful. Someday God will point to the Pirates dugout and say "this is your year to finish above .500". Then again...maybe He won't.
@MiniBrunoMars ok it's really annoying how everyone now comments " is any body else 306th viewer" we all fucking know theres a delay on the view count it's been like that for a year.
@spysoflondon at least its not like football where since the nfl only allows ea to make games we get stuck with shitty versions of madden that get worse every year. and the show is the best baseball game hands down unless you dont have a ps3 if thats the case then yes get 2k whatever is out. my point being is that when your only allowed to choose 1 they dont care enough to make it better since you have to get that one if you wanna get one at all.
What's the best day in my life? The day when i subbed to CGR!
@Theriot6592 yes he does, check out older videos in which hes walking around in Pittsburgh buying video games
now Pirates tickets are probably more than 5 bucks. they`re like the only baseball team i feel sorry for, what with 20 straight losing seasons and all.
@crazymiles

Whatchu talking bout Willis?
Was that Passion Pit song in the background at the end a part of the game or just a part of the review music? I heard it in another review too.
Wheres lord carnage!?

hey the bucs were good up until august.they contended and improved this year.and the crowds came to the games.
@Theriot6592 no he lives in the underwater base remember
Lol just watched the Pirates lose their series this weekend. Mark was spot on in this review as usual.
@ZoV3NoMoZ Okey thanks! Also is it worth buying the game if im only interrested in the rode to the show mode?
@ccwalpha
my friend that goes without saying for every sport, yes, even crokay( and i meant to spell it that way).
@Theriot6592 No, but he lives somewhere in Pennsylvania.
@bgardner104 sorta, the nfl stated that they only wanted to offer their licence for 1 developer so their would only be one game out there with the thinking if we only offer 1 licence it will be easier to manage that way and ea made the better offer, and i suppose from a business stand point its fine cause madden sells lots of copies and has a high profit margin. but since they spend most of their budget on advertising rather then game development the game has suffered from it
Dude awesome review....... Make one about battlefield bad company 2
@GrimReaper1675 mlb the show is made a sony first party studio, not by EA
Home run derby = Wii Sports baseball with better graphics
Personally i think its lame and agree with Mark, it could easily work with all of the game. Money money money.
does Mark live in Pittsburgh?
@MiniBrunoMars its becasue people dont finish the vid all the way.
I really want this game, should I buy it?
Oh and one more thing I dont have a ps3 so should I buy PS3 just for this game?
@Broyale26 lol, We shouldn't talk about the though, I mean are towns might all be in danger of being like them soon.
@Undertaker3879 Back in my day we got 300x300 ft gelatinous cubes for crowds, AND WE LIKED IT!!!!
@Theriot6592 ok then look through his videos there are a few he mentions he is lives in the pittsburgh area and he also talks about things happening in pittsburgh or just message him
@MrFag12345
lol it's not laziness. It's the fact that if you made 40 000+ people crowds look as detailed and smooth as the players, the console wouldn't be able to run it.
Nothing will beat Basewars for the NES. Still waiting on a remake for that one.. =(
@Theriot6592 duhh why do think he went to pinburgh
@MrFag12345 It's baseball, I am amazed the crowd has that many people
"When you put the playstation move logo on the packaging, it implies that it works with the entire game"
That's hardly ever the case. For example, LBP 2 has the move logo on it but you can only use it in the "prehistoric moves" levels and really its only for 2 players.

@ff542 Cus you're not from the US ? :p wild guess from an europeean ^^
@nschuel he did review the move
Missile Command Baseball for the Vectrex!!
"A beautiful ballpark and a terrific place to watch hockey on tv"...LMAO
@Theriot6592 you're not a true CGR fan?
Surely it's not because they want it running at a smooth framerate and higher detailed crowds would be too much for pitiful console hardware to handle.
Come on. EA and Sony need to make an update so that the "Move" can be used for the entire game. Playing this online with 3D and the "Move" would be epic.
@crosbysakic8719 that doesn't mean anything he went to E3 too genius.
are u from Pittsburgh, Penn
The guy at the beginning made me think of someone really bad at the moon walk
Best thing about the show is "Road to the Show' mode. Other then that.... I'll go play NHL 11.
"It's the time of year to go to a Pirates game and watch the Penquins game..." Funny!
@Theriot6592 That would be a fair assumption.
@MrFag12345...lets see you do better lol. Don't know if it's laziness as much as the best they can do given the resources.
@5k4k1dhtp because its baseball. you think its bad in a video game try listening to a game on the radio they pretty much sell every pitch. i know each inning is sold and home runs are pre sold its actually quite annoying
Thumbs up if you want Mark to review the Space Cadet Pinball on Windows XP!!
review mlb 2k11 and the 3ds
what year are you looking at?
'Somewhere between green... and scary' LOL
lol regret buying only reason i bought was cuz i thought you can play it with the move unfortunatly its only limited to practice what a letdown :(
@Theriot6592 Yup.
I think you've got Mark mixed up with someone else =/
4:51
when will EA release MLG?? It's such a cool concept!
1.) Opening Day is finally here! Go Tigers! (And Red Wings)
2.) It took seeing this video for me to know that Lyle Overbay was still in the league.
3.) Yes, Robocop would win against the A-Team. That's why they're building a statue of him in Detroit.
4.) I like the femullet on that one chick.
@TheTastyPineapple The first one's the hardest. After that, it's just more hilarious gravy. Trust me on this.
@TicklesMcLolz
This isn't an EA game, it's a Sony game.
@MrFag12345 Dude... they HAVE been worked on. It wasn't until this generation that the crowd people were actually made up of polygons (not just a flat sprite), and actually REACT to balls hit into the stands, or just simply react to what's going on in the game.

IncomeCompany you make the best videos ever!!!
doesn't remind me of missile command, so much as it does Death Tank Zwei.
@Theriot6592 YES he does =D
anyone know how to fix artifatcting on the ps3?
Oh my god, I hate it when there are ads in video games. What's with them mentioning statefarm and all the banners in the background? Bullshit
@Theriot6592
yes
5:00 - Johnny Cage! xD
@Broyale26 Tell me about :)
I think Baseball should have some Flamethrowers!
Good review but someone's missing....LORD KARNAGE!!!!!
Why is an EA game exclusive for one console?
It's worse than selling a cheeseburger without cheese... it's like selling an FPS game on the PC without a server list, dedicated server, or mod support.
Oh wait, that's already been done.
Honestly, the crowd scene kinda creeped me out....
..And grass textures from 1999.
@MiniBrunoMars I am.
Oh so it's Wii Sports Baseba- I mean! Move™ Home Run Derby
@crazymiles Maybe because pretty much every easports game has the numbers like that at the end of the title. FIFA 11, NHL, 11 and Madden 11. Also why you calling them pieces of shit? Thats hardly somethhing u would do.
@ff542
"Baseball is dull only to dull minds."--Red Barber
@Habib24202 more fun that way rather than sitting back on the chair and playing it...
lol steve wilkos at 5:07 :D
Stop busting on the Pirates! They're going to win it all this year!*
*Disclaimer: By winning it all I mean a 60+ win season, which would feel like winning it all, except,... without all the winning and playoff garbage.
Keep hope Bucco faithful. Someday God will point to the Pirates dugout and say "this is your year to finish above .500".
Then again...maybe He won't.
Heck, even Sidney Crosby can hit better than the Pirates! Remember his BP homerun last year?
@MiniBrunoMars ok it's really annoying how everyone now comments " is any body else 306th viewer" we all fucking know theres a delay on the view count it's been like that for a year.
pirates arent so bad this year
@jsmelee PIRATES ARE AMAZING!!!
lol I think Mark isn't a big fan of baseball. Long live hockey!!
So glad the pirates are better now
@ff542 hahahahahaha with out all the neat cut sences lol
@spysoflondon at least its not like football where since the nfl only allows ea to make games we get stuck with shitty versions of madden that get worse every year. and the show is the best baseball game hands down unless you dont have a ps3 if thats the case then yes get 2k whatever is out. my point being is that when your only allowed to choose 1 they dont care enough to make it better since you have to get that one if you wanna get one at all.
I don't like baseball, but the cheeseburger theory is the best.
un juego fantastico criminal no espero el play 4
Pittsburgh, city of champions!!!!! ....and the Pirates.
@aina090
cool story bro
Is this a sport?
My one beef with sports games are that they always looks super janky. Especially the audience.
i Dnt like HomeRun Derby... it Looks Like a Magic Bat :S
San Francisco Giants 2010 World Series Champions!!!
ohhh that is a cheat on the move controls.
Yea Go Red Sox......Straight to last place!!!
Yeah it's just you. No, just kidding. I think of WarGames though. Let's play Global Thermonuclear War.
Yes I'm still upset!
Baseball is best played or watched with beer
@bringbackevoution take it back
