OS Roundtable: Have you Ever Completed a 162 Game Season?

[Retropyro]

I did it a few times but on a very old game, Sports Talk Baseball on the Sega Genesis. Think it came out in 1992. I actually still have, might have to try it out again.

Yes once in MVP 2005 but never completed the playoffs. The football games always get in the way for me completing an 162 game season, Right about the time E3 comes and they talk about NCAA or Madden
is right about time I lose interest on baseball. I am sure the same thing will happen this year as well.

This is my biggest gripe with MLB the Show. They should give us the ability to shorten the season. So where there would normally be a 3 game series with a team, maybe you shorten it to 2 game series for medium length seasons or 1 game series for people who want short seasons. Like how NBA 2k does 82,56,29 game seasons.

I don't like simming games so i play every game, but i've never even come close to finishing a 162 game season in The Show. That is why i skipped the game last year. I currently am just past the All Star break of my first season (granted i haven't played the game in a very long time) so it didn't make sense to buy a new game and start over.

I still haven't decided if i'm going to buy this year's game for the very same reason. I just feel like i'll buy this game and make it barely 1/4 of the way through the season and next year's game will be here.

Ive done it 3 times; World Series Baseball '95 for sega genesis. I clobbered the Reds in the world series.

World Series Baseball 2K3 lost in the first round to the Mariners.

And again in MVP 05, lost in the first round to the Twins.

Yes, on the Wii. MLB power Pros 2008... Hey, love that game.

I haven't, but I plan on knocking one out this summer on The Show. Right now, I normally play at least one game per series so that evens out to around 50+ games a year. I really wish I had the time to play more right now.

[Vechi8]

Not even close. I would continue to play with sliders and get obsessed with finding the perfect settings and eventually would restart the chise. I have found the set this year that works and plan not to only hit 162, but achieve multiple years.

I came within one month of completing a full season in MLB 08 The Show, but couldn't pull myself to carry on. So far, MLB 12 seems to be the best in the series, so I may be compelled to try and pull off the feat this year.
