So every year I get the new version of MLB the Show, Does not matter what they add or do not add, If anything I do it for updated rosters.

I know however that some people wait, they are even playing versions from many years back

What holds all the weight? Is it you have a franchise you are many seasons in and do not want to start over? Is it a features thing? Is it financial?

Interested in seeing the feedback in this thread…as for this will be the first year ever I won’t be buying…I’m content with my 24 franchise with all the time I spent editing rosters and setting up SOTS for each team…my decision could change if SOTS is available on the PS5 and there are major upgrades I’ve been burned pretty much every year with this game since 17

I love MLBTS19. I can run my bulpen the way I want, not the way Manfred wants. Nothing like a LOOGY.

Don’t play multi-years. One and done, every game. Then play winter ball until new game is released. I play full roster control, so doing the real in season trades, removing players out for the season, etc. keeps my interest. Plus new animations, etc., early release, best bang for the buck. Bring on 25.

That sounds cool, What do you mean by winter ball?

I play a franchise in the winter….off season….fall.

For myself, it's the improvements made to the game overall, with a bigger focus on franchise and presentation.

If those improvements are significant enough, then I will start fresh with the newest installment of the game. If not, then I will keep playing the franchise I'm currently in and no worry about it.

I always buy the new version every year no matter what. The changes they make to gameplay, animations, and updated player likenesses are always enough for me to buy it. Plus, I'm assuming this year will be PS5 Pro Enhanced so I'm interested to see what that will entail.
