MLB The Show 16: The Little Things in This Year's Game

This is why I would love commentators that were just for this game. I could care less if they are real play by play guys or not. If it makes the commentary better.

I don't think changing would make pbp worse at all. If Matt can't recreate energy on demand, then they need a new guy. As I've said before, he may be a good pbp guy in reality, but not a good voice actor, and that's the type of guy you need in a video game. Good examples of guys who would be good are Indians radio Tom hamallton, Giants Miller, Yankees Sterling, SEA radio, Nats radio. And when 2k changed from Miller to Thorn in 09, his pbp wasn't lacking on the first year at all. After all, it has to happen at some point, every game eventually changes pbp guy. Guess we'll see if Matt has improved soon enough.

It's not that simple

I have to respectively disagree. It's not, as some have stated, the script he's given, it's how he does it in such a bland way. I can do his exact lines 100 times better, and it would be a major improvement. Would bringing in a new pbp guy mean less lines for a bit? Yes, but it could be much improved in the first year. It didn't hurt when Matt first started in 06, he had more than enough lines in the first year. It comes down to how you deliver your lines, and Matt, in my opinion, is just not a good "video game announcer."

No one here is a professional sports announcer/commentator, so it wouldn't really be a fair comparison, when compared against Matty V.

A more fair comparison would be between Matty V and other lead commentators for other sports game.
