The gameplay in 13 was amazing. The only thing I didn't like was the fact that they took out all the front office aspects in franchise mode! Other than that, this game was a must have for baseball fans!
Same here, the first ever show game i played was 08 at a friend of mines house and i fell in love. But i had to put up with the 2k game up until 2011 and said good bye then.
I remember when 'Show 12 came out people were whining everywhere how hard it was to hit the ball and score, even though the game had several tweak options that could make the game stupid easy.
As far as the most realistic sports simulation, the Show is second to none. But with that being said, I'd like to see some tweaks and additions to RTTS and Franchise
Hands down, the best looking sport game on ANY platform. Once again, Sony delivers photo realism beyond what we thought was gorgous starting off on PS3 with MLB09. Now 4 years later, it just keeps looking more and more like a real TV broadcast almost. Hope this has cross buy for the Vita. I couldn't imagine how choked EA would be if Sony got licensing for NFL, NHL, and PGA Golf with what they did with MLB. Shocking.
There is no pitch tip off in guess pitch anymore. You never know whats coming or have time to react unless you guess the correct pitch type AND the correct location.
I'm glad that I have PS3 for this game. I can't wait till MLB 13 The Show. I just wish that I had 3D tv so that I can see what it is like. The graphics look great.
Also for people who complain of not being able to hit a lot. As my coach told us in high school. "Baseball is the only game where you can fail 70 percent of the time, and still be great." Your not meant to hit 1.000. Get over it!
And in real baseball, if you swing perfectly, then you hit the ball well with solid contact. If you swing poorly, you don't hit well with solid contact. How well you swing is human error. This human error is already applied in the hitting mechanics of the game by both the contact circle and your timing. My point is simply that placing the contact circle in the right spot and having perfect timing (ie swinging perfectly) should result in solid contact, not also be judged by some random dice roll.
So someone explain the guess pitch types and why I have to guess BOTH the pitch and location for it to turn red. You used to be able to guess just one and it'd still blink for you.
i heard show 10, 2011,2012 are all good games but i dont wanna spend extra bucks for updated roster as ive seen price tag from $8-$27 at game store should i get 10,11 or 12?
For me the hitting got a lot worse when they brought in the analog hitting. Sure you can still use the buttons but the game has been geared towards analog. All pitchers throw mid 90's all game with a 70+% strike to ball ratio, and it's impossible to hit the hit the high fastball even when you know it's coming. Really hope this game is more realistic and more friendly towards the old button hitting system.
I once saw a fan reach over the wall for the rolling foul ball then MY HAND TO GOD it happen later in the game and the dude fell over the wall !!!! and that was in MLB the show 11 .
Just got it today. The animation is buggy. If you edit someone who has a 1-handed follow through as default, and give them a 2-handed follow through, they still end up with a 1-handed follow through.
Great job! The only question I have is I don't understand how to "influence" a fly ball. I thought if I pressed R2 and up on the Right stick this would influence a fly ball. What am I missing? Thanks a lot.
the game is good, the only thing that ruins it is the new Guess Pitch system. i havent been so frustrated at the Show in all the years ive played it, until now. Idk how many time i have had my RTTS guy have a 0-25 slump. hope they change it for MLB 14
havent play a baseball game since mvp 2005... i will buy when they add CREATE STADIUM into FRANCHISE MODE. every year i keep checking for that feature but they never add it ;/
Not nessicarily. Sure for me it was fun as hell to beat up on teams ou dislike. But i would also find myself getting bored out of my mind wanting a challenge. Wanting tie games in the bottom of the nineth pressure type momments. Its gets your blood flowing!
This Swing/Hitting programming has been in MLB 2K since like 2K9......at least SCEA smartened up. Can't wait for The Show, this is going to be my first year getting The Show. Buh-bye 2K.
How are they exaggerated? They're on point for the most part. You want to complain about batting stances? Go and look at 2k then come back and tell me they aren't good.

i retired from 2k since my dear sweet mother brought my ps3 2 years ago & i've played the show 10,11,12 & getting ready 4 13.
Can't wait! Got every single one on release date since '06 The Show!
me too. been playing the show on ps2 til 2011 when i switched it to ps3 starting w/mlb 10,11,12 & now 13
Looking forward to getting MLB 13 The Show on March 5th. Best Baseball videogame series of all-time on the PS3.
Same here, the first ever show game i played was 08 at a friend of mines house and i fell in love. But i had to put up with the 2k game up until 2011 and said good bye then.
Gotta love the follow through animations for this years game. CAN'T WAIT!!! :D

Batting stances look on point!!!
Not even much of a baseball fan but I'm getting this game. So fun to play.
I don't watch baseball but I love playing THE SHOW!!!
MLB the show is easily one of the best looking games of the generation. So many of my friends ask what game is playing lol.

So ready 4 this!
looks amazing
does the show have a schedule to put these out! cause i can't wait any longer!!!
There is no pitch tip off in guess pitch anymore. You never know whats coming or have time to react unless you guess the correct pitch type AND the correct location.
on allstar mode, my player is hitting 5.67 and reached the major league in 2 months(june,17 2013) plus power is 95
Can't wait to get this game on PS3 Next month MLB 13 The Show.
I'm glad that I have PS3 for this game. I can't wait till MLB 13 The Show. I just wish that I had 3D tv so that I can see what it is like. The graphics look great.
this game looks great,as always. Cant wait to see the show on the ps4
Can't wait until march 5
holy shit i really love what they did with the swing mecanic LOVE IT!!!!
Can it be March 5th already!?
Finally I'll be able to learn to read the pitches.
would we still have to use the left analog stick for directional hitting? I'd almost be upset i we couldn't
they changed Brauns stance..yes!
They got Longoria's stance and swing right. Bout time!
What the hell, they don't have a real picture of Harper? Must be early footage.

MLB 13 is the best

I prefer to play without guess pitch. It just helps to better illustrate my point.
i heard show 10, 2011,2012 are all good games
but i dont wanna spend extra bucks for updated roster as ive seen price tag from $8-$27 at game store
should i get 10,11 or 12?
On online franchise can I use the hitting option, timing only?
I've played the Show since before it was even called the show! Used to just be MLB (year #)

I rather just have both. Solves all of my exclusive dilemmas in the gaming world.
I once saw a fan reach over the wall for the rolling foul ball then MY HAND TO GOD it happen later in the game and the dude fell over the wall !!!! and that was in MLB the show 11 .
get the newest one if you don't have previous ones.
Cant wait to see how the PS4 version will look and play. Im done with these clay models.
these new ones are good but u got to admit when you could score 40 runs a game it was much funner
literally the best comment ive ever seen

CANT WAIT
1:16 MVPeds
I want to get a playstation... But to be honest, if theres a new one coming out this year it be good to wait.
havent play a baseball game since mvp 2005... i will buy when they add CREATE STADIUM into FRANCHISE MODE. every year i keep checking for that feature but they never add it ;/
Is this available for the Vita?
who is ur team now?
expos back with olympic stadium in classic stadium would be cool ...
3:43 wassup with that scoreboard? fill it up EA sports!
Thats the realistic you get from the show!
create him in create a player & put him in ur mets franchise. it's that simple
i know but blame 2k for stealing the mlb license from ea
i luv the show not because of the graphic because it's the only sports game that has my last name for audio
Can I just say on good looking this game is
If they at least caught the ball in the stands when its foul or HR then I'd agree with you but I say they focus on the player models.
fuck yea!!!! game looks beautiful this year. best dev team in gaming right here folks...bar none
Wait he changed his stance last year.. nevermind Sony you got it right....
You had me at hello....... The show
I play both 2k and the show but I like the show better
They Fucked up the Batting Stances again, can The Show ever get the batting stances right, Goddamn.
They fixed Jose's stance woohoo!!
LET'S GO DODGER'S!!!!!!
at 1:48 it sounds like he says "despite this shit"
Was going to stick with mlb 10 but now they finally tweaked the hitting ill get it
@Christian Rodriguez I can't even read what you typed. "These game l bad"? Try it again.
Posey is MVP he should be cover man.
Not nessicarily. Sure for me it was fun as hell to beat up on teams ou dislike. But i would also find myself getting bored out of my mind wanting a challenge.
Wanting tie games in the bottom of the nineth pressure type momments. Its gets your blood flowing!
The Marlins Park backstop is WRONG. Please fix it guys.
This Swing/Hitting programming has been in MLB 2K since like 2K9......at least SCEA smartened up. Can't wait for The Show, this is going to be my first year getting The Show. Buh-bye 2K.
i preordered my copy so i can get those 12,000 rtts points.
If Jose Bautista's stance isn't fixed I'm not buying the game. Coming from a jays fan
Lets go Jays!!!!!!!!!
cant wait
I KNOW!Why'd they take that away?
Do i download the virus first or after ??
How are they exaggerated? They're on point for the most part. You want to complain about batting stances? Go and look at 2k then come back and tell me they aren't good.
They nailed it good u won't hit 100 homers but u will be able to get 40

has nothing to do with that - that has to do with whether or not those brands want to be sponsors of the game.

GIANTS!

Well, I see they haven't put any effort into making the fans look more realistic.
This games graphics look too real. Like I'm watching baseball on tv.
@MrThekikster i guess pitch too. but no feedback and that defeats the purpose lol
