Digital Sportspage

Def watch the pitcher’s hand. I also set my batters aim to my fav part of the plate (down and away) and I’ll only swing if the ball is heading there. Once I get 2 strikes, I then just focus in the dead center if the plate. Also, you’ll learn a lot about the pitcher if you don’t swing until AFTER you...

This game still owns my soul. Mostly playing the 3 different Online Modes (ranked, BR and Events) depending on how much time I have. I probably worked harder unlocking the Ozzie Smith Card than I ever have in a game before. IMO, this is the greatest sports game I’ve ever played. What a celebration o...

I've lost my mind to the card collecting side of this game (which is a first for me with any sports game). They've got the gaming-crack formula dialed-in just "right". Again, what a game.

Did anyone else get invited to the Beta Xbox cloud gaming on iOS? Pretty damn cool playing MLB 21 in my iPad Pro yesterday although I got a couple of hits and mostly threw balls due to the bad lag and latency of the controller, seeing a bunch of Xbox library games on the iPad was very cool. Obvious...

Ha, I am playing with the Cards! Also, despite having Yadi, I've yet to actually throw out one single guy trying to steal. Even if I get the green arrow thing "perfect", he still beats it by a mile. I don't want to touch sliders. Am I missing something??

Occasionally, I want to drill a guy for a little payback. I find trying to hit the batters is incredibly hard. I’ve only done it once on accident and not once on purpose,

This is hilarious: https://www.reddit.com/r/MLBTheShow/comments/mvwzla/is_someone_gonna_get_this_man_a_paramedic/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf Finally got the hang of pinpoint pitching. It’s really awesome. Finally walking guys when I’m desperately trying to throw a strike & s...

I’ve seen those comments on Reddit, too. It’s not been an issue for me at all. When I got the set last summer, there was ghosting going on with VRR, but it was quickly addressed in firmware update a few weeks later. Since then, it’s just been awesome. You’ll love it.

I like playing with 'guess pitch' on. It's a nice little reward for getting it right (even if I still swing and MISS 99% of the time).

I tried pinpoint. Too wacky, maybe I’ll keep trying it. I messed around with some of the other modes. Battle Royale was really fun. Conquest made my head hurt.

I had a pitcher take a grounder off his ankle which led to a mound discussion and him waiving away the trainer. Just good stuff. That said, I’ve yet to have any of players get injured, but I’m sure it’s coming.

Yeah, thanks! I’ve turned it back on and it certainly helps make the games more “active”. I still can’t believe how great it is to have an MLB game again (never had a PS).

Isn't Dynamic Difficulty like "rubberband AI"? I typically turn that off in any games I play. Do most people play with it on? Also, is this a bug? I had runners on 1st and 3rd, I hit the batter & the game suddenly ended. https://onedrive.live.com/?authkey=%21AHhVpk4MKFzyj7g&cid=D88510F5D8F6F62F&id=D...

Holy crap this game is great. I seriously can’t believe how good it is. The player animations are so smooth and varied. Anyway, good stuff. A couple questions from a first timer: 1. For franchise games, it asks me to choose the weather before each game. Is there way to have it be random? Seems I odd...

(Xbox guy) just reading about Conquest mode. Wuh??? Seriously, I had no idea. Is it fun?

So I never played the Wolfenstein new games and download the new order on GPU. Man after 30 minutes I hate this, it is so scripted and honestly not much fun. What am I missing here because these games got like rave reviews when released. I liked The New Order (one of the few shooters I actually fin...

Bumping it down to Easy has made all the difference in the world. Pretty fun now.

I bought this game and have found it be really hard. I’m getting skunked on the futures tour. My guy is rated 30 and I’m playing guys who are 60+. I’m lucky to score a single point most matches. Thoughts?? Overall, the game looks ok (series x). I’ve played a ton of tennis games over the years. I lik...

I had a LG C7. Watch that burn in. I loved mine so much - it really bummed me out.

Pretty crazy! Not sure about you, but I’m really enjoying this latest version of a “console war”.

The Samsung Q90T has 2.1, VRR etc… Looks amazing with the series x.

I have it. It rocks. Had a LG OLED prior and don’t miss Dolby Vision one bit. It’s not like it’s a higher resolution or anything.

PUBG, in particular, was a real, uh, 'game changer' (pun semi-intended). I also think games like GTA and No Man's Sky have made real innovations in the way they evolved their games in the "community space" over many YEARS. For us old dudes, I could have never imagined playing the same game for 6 yea...

I got the Jackie Robinson Digital Deluxe version. 4 day early release.

It looks like the only difference with the versions are some kind of ‘ultimate team-ish” card packs, right (I’ve never played The Show before).

What version are you getting? Looks like there's 5 (?) different flavors for pre-order.
