I thought it was the opposite. Ratings based on wht will happen in 2013.

Trout should have better power vs RHP That was your original impression. I think that Harper will have better power numbers vs rhp than trout.

Either way just compare the year end numbers of those two. Trout sounds like one of your faves so i know you will give in depth Information , actual eye test evaluations , plus the small parts that give him character. Example : they tie in homers but trout put 4 in the upper decks. Edge trout. Plus I mean I'll watch it as close as I can. This will be a very exciting year but I will not see it all.

...
SCEA ratings are based mostly on the past three-year averages, with more recent years weighted more.

I do not root for the Angels, and have no vested interest in Trout. I like fishing and often go for trout, so when I saw his name, I thought he was a fish!

I don't care what Trout does this year or next year, unless the Dodgers get him.

Re: Operation Sports MLB 13 The Show Community Impressions Thread

some quick thoughts after a handful of casual games:

after the oversell of the ball physics last year, which did not deliver for me, this year is night and day.

bloopers dropping in, humpback liners, no mans land pop ups, dying quails, and everything in between.
splendid.
2.0 works as promised.

also, my first franchise game after OSFM played out reallly well.
Nothing crazy there right?
well I didnt touch a slider.

i drew four walks as well.

not saying i wont need to touch any.
most likely the manager and pitching fatigue stuff, but i like the idea of minimal tweaking.
plus thats what ST games are for.

anyways, all good so far.

oh also, freedie freeman dropped a soft looping end of the bat squibbler. he didnt even have to move. he just simply closed the mitt too early.
that, I liked.

Reds pitcher Chapman...holy molyyyyyyyyyyy! Does he throw heat! I always swing early and against him I was constantly late on his 101 mph fastball.

Re: Operation Sports MLB 13 The Show Community Impressions Thread

The more I play this game the more I begin to really appreciate the jump its made this year.

The little nuances and changes under the hood only start to become more obvious the more you play, and I've no doubt I have yet only seen a fraction of the goodies to come.


I've always liked previous versions of The Show, but this year is the first time I can genuinely say I am falling in love with the game.


Without a doubt the absolute GOAT in terms of sports gaming in my opinion, lord knows how great it's going to get on the PS4.

Re: Operation Sports MLB 13 The Show Community Impressions Thread

After not really enjoying the game last year and being terrible at it, I am loving it this year and am convinced that this is the greatest sports game ever made.

That said, there are a few additions that really pop out to me that could take this game to another level.

1. Historical players
In my opinion baseball is the one sport that is most in touch with its past. Can you imagine the potential this game could tap into with classic teams and players? Give us something to play inside those classic stadiums already included...

2. My player mode
This would be the ability to take over a current MLB player... Like RTTS but with a real player.

3. Create a team
I have noticed how awesomely in-depth the team customization options are within Diamond Dynasty. It would be so nice if we could create our own team outside that mode maybe even with Create a stadium. I would love to be able to replicate some college teams. Perhaps they could even do an online team creator like NCAA Teambuilder.

4. Situational or "Moments" mode
Basically I'm thinking of Madden Moments, where you are able to relive some of the top moments of the past or current season. Also a mode where you can set up a particular situation would be cool, like trying to come back in the bottom of the ninth.

This game is awesome!

Have no fear when it comes to Historical Players, there will be plenty of Grade A roster sets in the Vault in the coming weeks. Including specific years and Dr Sublime and Co's All Time Rosters. Check out his thread in the Rosters section where he has posted some screenshots - the faces are on point. The fantastic Historical sets is what steals all my gaming time every year.
