Re: Super Mega Baseball is a Throwback of the Good Kind (PS4 Review)

After looking at this board and listening to the latest episode of the press row podcast, I am itching to buy this game, but my fear is that this will have me "baseballed out" by the time MLB The Show comes out.

I get that they are totally different, but I want to enjoy The Show as much as possible.

I really want to get this game but I'm waiting for them to patch the walks issue.

I would not let that hold you up from getting the game now. I am sure it will get addressed.

Love. This. Game. Who needs the show?

No seriously. I want more simple looking sports games with true gameplay mechanics and physics. This game has that.

Am I the only one who finds themselves swearing while playing this? I started a season with the Platypi and this team is going to be the death of me lol. We have to scratch and claw for runs, not much power on the team. A ton of fun, though. This game is awesome.

Personally I'm happy that an arcade-styled baseball game even HAS walks. I honestly can't think of a single one where I've been able to draw them, including Power Pros.

I don't have a good enough eye to be able to lay off close pitches anyway, so it kind of balances out as long as the pitch speed is high enough to put that doubt in my mind.

Search posts by jyoung, he's been the one posting his experiences with it. I'd link it myself but I'm at work.
