Maybe the 5 O'clock shadow threw me off.

His eyes look weird in that cover.

Something does seem a little off with the cover but I'm sure I won't care too much as soon as I insert the disc into my PS3.

His left hand looks like it was drawn with colored pencil or something.

Haha, thanks guys. In light of the new information and my own personal need for editing stuff, I changed the script only a little bit. Call it a "revised draft."


Kevin Butler: "Dear Joe Mauer. I noticed you're on the cover of our enshrined baseball franchise video game once again. Anything you might want to say to that?"

Joe Mauer: "Hey there PlayStation, it's good to hear that you finally know who I am now after having five straight .800 OPS seasons. I trust that you got me to play a little more like myself this time?"

Kevin Butler: "Well champ, not only did we help you out but we revamped the entire league as well, capturing over 300 new player-specific animations and facial renderings. Add right stick control for more intuitiveness, and if that's not your game... who needs the controller? I can use the Move to swing just like you!"

Joe Mauer: "Heh heh, I think you're a long ways away from swinging like me there big guy."

Kevin Butler: (slowly puts 3D glasses on) "Au contraire, mi Cabo amigo. I seem to remember things a bit differently against the Yankees last October."

Joe Mauer: "... well played, Butler."


MLB 11: The Show

It only does... Realism... Move... 3D... Everything.

Why not Josh Ham-Bone Hamilton. He was only the MVP and Joe Mauer only hit 9 homers and blamed it on the new park.
