MLB 09 The Show: Attention to Details

What was so bad about Madden. I think that Madden was very good this year. Football is probably the hardest game in the world to program since you have to account for 22 players on the field at one time, all having to respond to the action on the field.

IMHO I applaud Tiburon for being able to give us Madden each year and the few glitches that we do see now and again are totally forgivable in my book and in most cases are corrected right away.

I really don't understand most madden fans. They complain over the most trivial of details. I honestly think that madden fans are just conditioned to whine each year for the heck of it. Madden sales aren't dropping so I think its safe to say that people are, in reality, quite pleased with the product.

To all us show fans let us go back to when MLB 07 dropped: Remember how the reviewers all complained about the graphics in MLB and how 2k7 was the better game because of there great graphics. Who's getting the last laugh now???????

Sony took a brilliant approach to starting a sports franchise. Make the gameplay solid and worry about the graphic details later, something 2k should have taken notice of. Now that Sony has a solid foundation with which to create from, each year we will be treated to great things. They don't have to waste precious development time trying to make the game play function and instead can dedicate that time to all the subtle nuances that makes baseball, baseball.

2k on the other hand is struggling just to get a working product on the market and one look at the screenshots of MLB2k9 demonstrates that they are spending so much time on getting the x's and o's right with the game that the other details such as graphics have gone out the window, a sad state of affairs for a franchise that is about to release its 4th iteration of the next gen era baseball game.
