MLB 13: The Show
 

Just got it today, will probably start it up (and Diamond Dynasty) sometime this week. Who wants to play?

Bought it yesterday. I'll play ya.

and I was so close to having all collections in "Diamond Dynasty" on MLB 2012..... now no one will be online and I'll never be able to finish :(

Hrm. I want to pick this up as I didn't get 2012, but I also kinda want to buy Tomb Raider and yeah.

@NaitchNaitchNaitch:

I'm using my busted controller where the L2 button and sometimes X button (and really, any button. it's kind of random sometimes.) go on the fritz and occasionally some of the runner get sent to the next base or all of the runners get sent to the next base or god knows what happens.

So that's why you got a triple play :(

Also, I may start a round-robin league depending on who is interested and how many people want to play. Let me know.

You still blanked me. Let me have my victories. :'(

Caved in and bought copies for my ps3 and vita

<font color=goldenrod>Are there any major improvements that make this worth getting? I only got MLB 12 on the cheap in, like, September. I'm still enjoying the game, so not sure I want to basically start over. Seems like a few franchise tweaks were made but nothing earth shattering.

The Mets-centric ASG uniforms look pretty pimp though based on a pic I saw.</font>

depends El Negre. Are you playing on PS3?

Of course. Dummy. Jeez.

In other news, they've added a logo of a mustached man wearing a sombrero in Diamond Dynasty so it looks like Los Golden Sombreros are getting a new logo.

I may rent this tommorow and i'm off this weekend andddddddddddd i'd like to whoop you're ass in this, Stevie Clevenger Walk Off style. OK?

I haven't gotten The Show in a few years - I'd really like to get it and join in, but I'm not I'd get it without a good deal out of the gate. I'll roam CAG for deals.

last years was pretty damn good. I know nothing about the new one.


I'm up for a league or something. Whatever. Let me know. PS3. Roxer, you know my name.

Sandersplex for anyone else.

I won't be around too much this weekend or next. Do it 3 weeks from now.

the fuck?

Are there ever really in any of them? It's not like they have (or need to) completely overhauled something dramatically different. But there are some slight improvements like there are every year. I fell in love with Diamond Dynasty last year and they fixed a few things apparently but I haven't started it yet.

I'm a busy man. I got things to do.

If I can get the game for say, like 35 bucks I think I would bite. It will certainly drop quickly, as most video games do these days, I'll get in. And once my work contract ends in April I should have more time to play.

just rent it at least come on

Honestly, i should have played Roxer online a lot more. I just had shit to do. This one though... gunna be fucking Roxer up all Summer to be honest.

Clevenger Bombs all summer.

<font color=goldenrod>Not so much that there need to be big improvements, as it's a quality game - but $60 seems to be a lot to drop on a game that isn't markedly different from the previous year. There have been a lot of calls to overhaul franchise since it hasn't changed much since the inception of the series. They promised huge changes a couple years ago but have yet to deliver, kinda thinking they're waiting for PS4 before revamping the mode.

I'll likely wait for the price to drop, too. By that point the OFSM full minor league rosters will be out as well, love having real prospects in the game.</font>

I haven't rented anything in almost a decade, so I'm not starting now. I'd rather spend money on owning something permanently, and I honestly don't rent because I usually don't get to games when I expect to.

I mean, I have a family video like 2 minutes away that always has everything same day release and not many people renting in the area so i can rent whatever, whenever, call and renew or whatever and just play til my boner pops with semen. ok?

fuck you csl

Just bought 13. Waiting for the data to install. STOKED.

woooooo

<font color=goldenrod>Since I'm bored, here's my Mets roster in 2014. I used the Operation Sports 2012 full minor league roster update, so there are no "fake" players per se. All real minor leaguers created by the community:

Lineup:
2B Jordany Valdespin (ludicrously good for some reason. made the All Star Game in 2013)
RF Nick Swisher (signed a 2 year deal with the Dodgers after 2012. traded for him at the 2013 deadline)
3B David Wright
1B Ike Davis
LF Lucas Duda
CF Jorge Soler
C Josh Thole/Derek Norris platoon
SS Kyle Seager/Ruben Tejada platoon

Rest of bench:
OF Matt den Dekker, OF Jiwan James, IF Adam Rosales

Rotation:
Johan Santana, R.A. Dickey, Dillon Gee, Matt Harvey, Blake Beavan

Bullpen:
Bobby Parnell (closer), Koji Uehara, Josh Edgin, Manny Acosta, Garrett Olson, Jason Bulger, Deolis Guerra</font>

The A's (and DBacks) are my favorite.

I take this as a personal slight against me and my house.

But if it was A's and Cubs that means it was a spring training game and those games don't matter

just sim through all that and get to the regular season

There is. They play in two separate "leagues." The two leagues only cross over during spring training, a couple weeks of mid season interleague games, and the World Series. So, if your first game was between an American League team (Oakland) and a National League team (Cubs), it must have been a ST game.

Shut up loopydate.

It was magic.

<font color=goldenrod>Sometimes I'll play a few ST games to try out new guys I signed. If I have an open bullpen or bench spot, etc. I'll sign some vets to cheap 1 year deals and use ST to decide who I play the best as. It really only takes a game or two for me to decide. Then I set my 25 man and just advance to the regular season.</font>

Shhh. I was hoping he'd buy my silly "separate leagues" story.

<font color=goldenrod>Lost the 2014 All Star Game in Minnesota. Only runs I was able to muster were back to back solo shots from Allen Craig and Neil Walker in the 2nd inning.

I kept it close and was losing 3-2 in the bottom of the 8th, and I had tabbed Bobby Parnell as the NL closer since I'm biased. Since there was no guarantee I'd tie the game, I brought him in for the 8th. Promptly gave up 3 runs and lost 6-2. lolMets</font> :(
