Has anyone checked out Kauffman Stadium? The All-Star game will be there this year so I was curious if they made improvements. And does everyone agree that pulse pitching gives you a headache?
 
I ordered the package sight unseen. The Vita flaws seem to be cosmetic, which I care zero about.

This I can deal with. Good to hear that it isn't messing up pitching or hitting at all. I don't care much about the cosmetic issues, but it would be nice if they could fix them via a patch.

Ugh now I'm conflicted. I'd never play this type of game on my PS3 but it seems perfect for Vita.

Does the slowdown not affect gameplay at all? If not, I think I'm in. If it does....deal breaker.

Incredible commercial.

BTW, my PSN is sebolavirus if anyone wants to play online, PS3 or Vita.

Though from what I've heard, its still broken. :(

Everything i've heard from people that bought the Vita version say gameplay is good.
 
I did see a glitch in the PS3 version of the show. My RTTS's player started spazzing out like it was about to fall off. That's some 2k shit right there.

I thought you were gonna post this lol

as much as I like Kate Upton that commercial depresses me

makes sense in the end though, after all MLB 2K kinda lives off its gimmicks (the million dollar giveaway every year) so why wouldn't they try to sucker more people in with Kate Upton?

it works >_> just ask the Hardees here, ends up I wasn't the only guy that somehow ended up going by after seeing the Kate Upton ad for them ^_^;;


Kate Upton, Verlander, David Price, CJ Wilson and Jay Bruce?

too bad they put more of an effort towards marketing than the game itself
 
I just redeemed my online pass on my first try for the people that were asking, so either it went up or there is something going on with certain people

Wow, Amazon delivered the games to my doorstep at 9:30 in the morning. They usually come at like 6 pm. My workday just got longer.

I went to Best Buy to pick up both versions and was told they only ordered enough copies of the Vita version to cover pre-orders. When did they turn into Gamestop?

Can't wait to go pick up both versions later today. I haven't been this excited about a sports game in a while. Looking forward to being able to play the same RTTS on the vita and ps3. I think that feature alone sold me.

The ONLY reason I am buying both today. Amazing feature that I never dreamed would be here this early in the Vita's life.

Helps that Best Buy is knocking 20 bucks off and has 40% trade in so looking at some older games via their website.. both games will cost me 10 bucks total.

Picked up Vita rev. I've never played The Show before.

It's HARD, but in a good way. Played my first RTTS training and game. The batting training I did amazed me, there was significant improvement in recognizing where the pitch was going out of the pitchers hand when I was finished. Amazing

Graphically, its very nice, especially the animation, but it isn't going to blow you away. Still, the creation tools were robust, and they have all the stadiums and what-not, very very nice for an almost launch game.
 
Okay, I went ahead and bit on the Vita version. Now to stare at them the rest of the day (AND I have somewhere to be after work until almost midnight arrrgrh)

Same here. Seems most of the issues have to do with the cutscenes/closeups and not the actual gameplay. If that's truly the case then it's a non-issue for me.

Also, the past couple years I've had far more good experiences than bad playing MLB online. Switching from a wireless to wired connection and setting my ports up properly made a huge difference. Still have the occasional shit connection from time to time though.
 
I redeemed the online pass code for the game and it gave me the ps3 version of the pass code yet I bought the vita version of it. I try to download it thru the psn store on my vita and it says I cannot download it on my vita system. The fuck is this shit Sony. If you're going to make this shit use a fucking online pass make sure its correct. I have no idea what to do.
