Thank you very much for sharing this here. My pitching walk totals especially were a source of worry going into my franchise, and I only have 9 in 14 games. Wanted to use Pulse as I still want my actions to matter SOME -- this may be exactly what I'm looking for.

Thanks again.

as it stands 2k has the analog piching half right and The Show has it half right.
-give us a number of games played throug a franchise mode. 2k gives us a 29 game, 54 and 162 game option. its about time The show give us this option also. I personally like the managerial aspects of a franchise mode but do not have time to play 162 games, and there are those of us who dont like simming games.

personally the only thing 2k lacked this year was fluidity. THe SHOW is just so fludi compared to MLB2k.
No, 2Ks analog pitching is a clunky mess and has no sim qualities whatsoever. Take it from a former pro pitcher, The Shows analog pitching is outstanding and mimics real pitching more than any game has before. Don't mess with it!

There is a lot more to why The Show is MUCH better than 2Ks game than just smooth gameplay. The more you know about baseball, the more you will realize that. No comparison. You need to play much more of The Show, because it is obvious, you play too much of 2K, which doesn't say much about your baseball sense now, does it!

Like every day at Gamestop. If you aren't going to do the research yourself, at least try not to be insulting. That's with a 160 GB HD, a game, and a controller.

I got my 160gb ps3 and the show 12 at best buy for 249.99 in April. Just have to look for deals

I then got a vita show bundle at Walmart at the beginning of
May for the same price.

what I'd like to see: cursor batting, all minor league levels, WORKING roofs in ballparks and more classic teams/ballparks. A mode like Grand Prix mode in PYS would be nice, Diamond Dynasty has to be more like that imo.

I disagree with the commentary needing more; if anything it needs less. The biggest waste of programming effort in these sports games is all the team and player-specific chatter one has to listen to over and over again every time you play that team. I much prefer the minimalist chatter from sports games gone by like Hardball: calling balls, stikes, outs, etc. And that's it.
