So I normally don't pickup sports games, I prefer RPGs. I pick one up every couple of years and alternate between NBA, NFL, and MLB. This go around I decided to pickup MLB 13 The Show for my PS3 and so far I'm enjoying it mostly.
Do you play any sports games on your consoles?
The rest is me rambling / reviewing because I have had fun with it.
Played the Home Run Derby at Best Buy one day a few weeks back. Bautista, Harper, McCutchen, Posey, Cabrera. Got in a groove with Bautista and Cabrera both, hit 15 in a row out of the park at one point.
Picked up the game Friday night. Got home and installed and updated everything. Left all settings at the defaults. Started an exhibition game, Nationals (me) versus Blue Jays (cpu). Pitched a perfect game with Strasburg but was having a hard time hitting so it was like a 2-0 game.
Started a Road To The Show game, power starting pitcher. Drafted into the White Sox organization, starting in Double-A. Second start of the season and I pitched a no hitter, should have been a perfect game but my stupid 2nd baseman made a throwing error in the bottom of the 9th. As the season progressed the manager kept sending me email saying "you're doing great but we don't have a spot to promote you to AAA" - I'm sorry but with the stats I produced I woulda been promoted
Also started a shortstop power hitter Road To The Show, drafted by the Yankees. Only played about 5 games into the AA season so far, but getting better at hitting. Do have 3 grand slams so far though, my guys set the table pretty well lol
