[Tomba]

But where would you guys rate PYS 2014 to say 2013/12/11 or 10?

Last one i had i believe was 10

I notice some of the uniform models in 2015 not be as good as before is this true?

Definitely 2014 was the best of that lot. 2010 was a good game as well but the graphics have gotten a lot better since that game, crisper and not that fuzzy look it used to have.

2015 at least to me is the best so far w/o a doubt. Plays a lot looser to me in that there are more errors, hit batters, foul balls, unis seem fine to me but I'm likely not the best to say as that isn't a big thing to me.

2015 added more strategy in the pitcher/batter duel with the Batter: Pitch bonus and changes to the guess pitch and hot /cold zones.

Have been a regular buyer of PYS but was in two minds about the 2015 version seeing as it was only on PS3 but with MLB The Show being a buggy mess on release for the second year in a row, I took the plunge.... so glad I did!!


Without doubt this is the best version of PYS so far!!


The new facial scans make the players/managers look amazing and easily match (if not beat) MLB The Show graphics. Gameplay is excellent as per usual and this year I am definitely seeing more foul balls, HBP's, fielding errors and best of all the CPU waiting for a pitch it likes. I'm assuming this is down to the new guess pitch feature for the CPU, along with the CPU managing the game better. Very noticable that the CPU batters seem to get aggressive when behind in a game etc. almost like they are working to set tactics!!


The beauty of PYS for me is the ability to make the game as easy or as hard as you want and the lack of scripting this causes, unlike The Show which still feels that you are constrained by the CPU deciding outcomes for you!!


Have had an excellent mix of tight games and the odd blow out for both me and the CPU. With the changes made to pitching last year, bringing in a reliever can still be scary but needs must and it doesn't half make for a nervous finish when your circle is shrinking at the speed of light!!


There are also a couple of new camera angles in this year but none are particularly amazing!!


Best baseball game on the market bar none and it's no surprise that The Show has 'borrowed' so many things from it!!


Btw hopefully the new facial scans were done as part of the process of getting the game on the PS4!! Just a pity that there is a lack of Japanese language based games on this console, hence the poor sales of it Japan!! Hurry up, so we can get PYS 2016 on the PS4!!

Looks like no PYS for PS4 ever!!

Hope that's not true. But Konami's focus is mobile games now.

That sucks, if true. Oh, Konami.

Hopefully if Konami does indeed stop making consol games altogether someone will buy the rights to pys. Also seeing pes is still on for 2016 there is still some hope.

PES will be fine, its their top selling game other than MGS. PYS on ther hand it wouldn't surprise me if this year's version is the last in the series especially since its exclusive in Japan/Asia. If PYS does release in 2016 it'll be in a form of a mobile game.
