Padrecast: MLB 09 The Show Fact Sheet

It’s the return of the Padrecast! After doing a handful of them last year I wasn’t really satisfied with what I was able to offer on my own. The idea though is to have a shorter, more focused discussion that is unedited and just presented as-is. I’m joined by my OS Waiver Wire co-host Chase Becotte in what should be a continuing series of them. It’s a change of pace from the normal show we would do.

To kick it off we wanted to discuss the MLB 09 The Show fact sheet. We basically just run through it making some observations related to the improvements and features for this year. There is also some talk about whether the series is doing enough to innovate which is a topic that came out of a posting I had last week.

IT'S GONNA BE REAL HARD TO TOP LAST YEAR'S GAME…..sometimes too many strokes will ruin a painting but I'm sure that the improvements made here will be subtle…

I loved the Road to the Show mode. I played 3 seasons of it non-stop. One of the coolest things is making it to the All-Star game. I also sort-of didn't mind that it took so long to get to the Majors. Very few people are instant starts in their Rookie or Sophmore seasons. Almost everyone has to fight their way through the Minors. I can't wait for this game to take another 3 months of my life, my wife would be so happy…lol
