I fully agree with you, i'm a big fan of the show and will always support them.

That being said, the show took over some things from 2k, one of them being gesture pitching.
They way 2k implemented that was great, different gestures for different pitch types.
Another thing they did first was the mlb live games (don't know if it's the correct name) where you can play the actual game that's scheduled for that day with the correct line up.
Another thing they nailed was the commentary, it was really outstanding

For the rest the 2k games always felt very very unfinished and unresponsive.
MLB the show has simply always been the better game.
I really appreciate how the guys from SDS come on here to talk and listen to their fans. They keep improving the game (in my opinion).

But i really wish there was another baseball game out there, because I do feel that healthy competition is a good thing and as stated above it did help to further improve mlb the show (again, in my opinion)
I certainly do not mean by this that SDS is not doing their best every year on this game. It's more about other teams/companies thinking differently or coming up with different stuff that can be adopted by the show as well.


Here's hoping that the pro yakyuu series comes to PS4 in the future, would love to play that game.
