Just wondering what grade you would give The Show 13 after five months of play,

LakerFan56 · 06-05-2013, 08:58 PM

I give it a solid B. Gameplay is excellent though the bugs in the first month were annoying. I think offseason mode needs to be streamlined. It can be a huge pain.

I'm happy with absolutely everything except the actual gameplay. New presentation, new "look" of the interfaces, scorebar, etc... new menu layout, new franchise mode, etc...

- The RTTS mode as a whole is stellar, both on and off the field.

- Game is pretty bug-free
A bunch of amazing changes were made

But things like fielders not covering bases, not backing up each other, missing sub options, no wheel play... all the way down to ball physics, and catchers and outfielders still moving like they were members of the Justice League... and some of these issues are even bigger/more noticeable than they were in previous years (for example, previous years had better base coverage and defensive assistance).

7.5/10

I'd give it an A.

Solid B. I prefer 11 and 12 over it though.

I don't pay enough attention to notice some of the things that Bob head points out, but I'd give it a 8.5 overall. I like the changes to the hitting and have been pretty happy overall. The two negatives I find, the baserunning glitch of slowing down and I wish we could adjust infielder and outfielder run speed separately. This way it doesn't seem like my infielders are stuck in mud because I have to turn it down so the outfielders don't get to everything.

9.75/10

"A"

No game is perfect.....but as far as sports games. MLB The Show 13 is my all time favorite along with NBA2K11.

It just does not get any better than this.

C+
Prefer 11 and 12

MLB 13 should have gave players the choice to have commentary in RTTS since they didn't put that in the game has lost a lot of it's players this year it seems like the game has cooled down quiet a bit along with the commentary they took out the newspaper which they shouldn't have a lot of people liked reading the post game comments and stats.
