I played The Show 11, 12, 13, and skipped 14. I love this game. It is the reason I bought a PS3 even when I already had an x-box.

So after a couple of weeks, here are my thoughts:

The game is very good. Very deep, with lots of options for gameplay. I won't even play every game mode over the course of the year because I am stuck on franchise and RTTS.

Hitting is more difficult, on every setting. As has already been written, there seems to be a lot of focus on working counts. Ironically, I feel like working counts is easier. I am able to read pitches better than I did in 13.

Pitching seems easier. Or maybe I'm just better at it now. Either way, I have my pitching sliders a lot higher in difficulty than hitting, and I do just fine - which is a miracle because I'm not a hard-core gamer.

What the @$%@ is up with the bunting. The AI bunts all the @#$%! time. Bases loaded, bases empty, it doesn't seem to matter. I'm guessing the AI is more sensitive to defensive positions now or something? It's really annoying how many times guys bunt now.

And lastly, what's with all the @%$!@ triples? A ball in the hole with a guy with 50 or geater speed is pretty much automatically 3 bases now? I'm shocked I haven't hit for the cycle yet with anyone. Either baserunners are way too fast now, of fielders way too slow, but it doesn't seem right.

Aside from those two major (for me) issues, I like this game very much. I know there is a 2-strike bug but I would think will be addressed in the near future, but other than that, I enjoy this year's game just as much as before. It's certainly the best baseball game on the market, and arguably the best sports game.

I don't know why you guys are so salty towards people showing technical issues. It's in the game. Deal with it and have fun.

you panned a camera. No gameplay.

I'm not sure what you're trying to prove or why you're trying to prove it?
