MLB The Show 13 Gameplay Video - Atlanta Braves vs. Washington Nationals (Postseason)

[videobastard]

Im hoping the next gen mlb the show games get drastically better commentary and crowd sounds. When it comes to these sports games im a immersion whore. This series is just too good to not have a complete overall package soon.

Matt V. gets a bad rap because of his commentary in The Show. When he records his lines they sound like he just reads them off of the paper instead of sounding like he is watching a game.

Hearing Vasgersian's real-life commentary got me excited for baseball. I wish that excitement was carried over into the game. I have never even heard him get that loud... insane!

Anyway, still love the game. Very excited for Tuesday

Don't get me wrong..I get annoyed with The Shows commentary too. I was just saying that all games get that way. I would love if they had franchise relative commentary in The Show.

This is what Russell has been saying for years and I'm glad to have a development team that cares for its community and fan base. Its baseball people, we are adults here. I wouldn't want to be playing the Show at 8am Saturday morning and commentators screaming their lungs out. I like the beauty in this game and I hope this simplicity continues for a long long time!

Repetitiveness is inevitable on this current gen, I know that. The only reason I would put NBA above The Show is because it's amusing at times, they actually say things that are intriguing, they show emotion when it's expected. As for MLB 2k's commentary, I never really found it repetitive, although I didn't play the game since the current systems came out. If you compare MLB The Show, MLB 2k, NBA 2k, Madden, NCAA Football, NHL, and FIFA, The Show is near the bottom of that list in terms of commentary. Other aspects, it's arguably the top game every year.

first impressions go a long way sir

They do, but last year I was already sick of the commentary by day 3 or 4. I just feel like it's been the same base for 7 years, and they add a couple random lines and openers each year. Oh well, hopefully by next year the new system will improve these very small aspects of the game.
