I can't be the first one who noticed this; the lyrics to "Tessie" make no mention of "royal ruler".

"Tessie was the royal rooters rally cry
Tessie was the tune they always sung"

Great article, but that last part was face-palm worthy.

Over 90 games and still haven't play a 1-0 or 2-1 game yet or struck out more than 3 times in a game or walk more than 3 batters in a game, and that's on Legend but "that happens all the time in baseball". I turned the human contact and power to 0 and still my team is hitting over .350 and I have 3 players over 50 HR and all of them over 15, just like in MLB.

Haha, I noticed that too earlier today, and it looked funny to me, but I couldn't recall with certainty if it was wrong or not.

BK, I will also call shenanigans. I have played four games so far: an 8-6 win (with six combined homers), a 2-1 win (scored an an excuse me swing back towards the pitcher that essentially ended up being a squeeze), a 10-1 loss, and a 7-6 win (scored two in the ninth against the closer). Maybe I'm just lucky, but I'm seeing plenty of realism and variety. Most importantly, I'm having fun.

I had some fun games on MVP too, but none that I can remember were as good as the one I just played on The Show.

My problem with OS sometimes is that some content is not an "article" its an opinion piece....which is fine...label it as such!

For the record, the more I'm playing with The Show's hitting system, the more I love it. IMO, it feels so much more rewarding and realistic.

Not to mention I have a hard time believing on legend with hitting sliders at zero, he's hitting .350 as a team with several guys over 50 HR's. and the entire team over 15 HR's He's never struck out more than 3 times in a game, and has never had a 2-1 or 1-0 ball game.

Just doesn't add up..

Just because this game is good for you (or you are not that good to beat the dumb CPU in the show) doesn't mean that is going to be the same for everyone else, I'm glad you and many others are getting your money's worth for some of us this game has too many unrealistic things tend to be repetitive and the big problem is that most of those issues were found since 07 and still they haven't attempt to fix them, too me that makes this game just good at best, and no I'm not going to play MVP 05 and I may give this game another try latter on but for now I'm putting this game away.

I believe that the Moderators were the ones that put this article in this thread, so bashing on the guy that wrote the article is not going to make it go away, if anything complain to the ones that place it here the Moderators.
I smell Bull****!

That's because I love baseball and there's not another game out there I can play, like I mention earlier I'm not going to play MVP and it took me that many games to finally put the half show to rest.

Why not? Let me guess, because you play on all-star and still s*** at it.
