This game has a lot in it and that had a lot added to the franchise mode as well as other features. If you have seen the stats MLB 09 actually outsold Killzone in March, which for a sony sports game is amazing. They have a direction and it seems like they are making an effort to give us a great game. I mean last year the game was too easy, then this year its to hard. Except for the stat glitch which i think needs to be fixed, i am sure it will work out. I have played every baseball game there has ever been, Front Page, Hardball, Tony Larussa, 2k series and yes even the holy grail MVP 05 and 09 the Show is the best. MVP was a good game but i think to say that didnt have its issues . well lets just say i remember if i uppercut the swing i would hit a homer half the time lol.

Correct me if I'm wrong, cause it may have been 04, but didn't MVP 05 also feature the infamous lefty glitch as well? You remember where lefties didn't hit for power as well? Can't remember which year, just remember it happening.

Haha I remember the dreaded "lefty glitch". That was MVP 04 though and back then console games didn't have the capability to be patched.

Hey guys.

Sorry I can't read through the entire post because my computer is extremely slow. I am in my RTTS as a Starting Pitcher. I can't make it past May 8th, it will not let me sim to my next appearance. I know others are having this issue, and I was wondering if you could please head me in the right direction as far as a workaround is concerned.

I believe Russell posted one somewhere but I have had no luck thus far and my computer is on the brink of self destruction.

Thanks so much.

Most were having issues in Sept, but the general premise of the workaround (skipping training sessions) might still apply as long as you have an earlier save to work from, perhaps. Not sure...but anyway, here you go...

If you skip all training sessions (batting and base running) during the month of September you should be fine. We know this is not ideal, however until the patch is ready for public release this will allow you to continue playing your RTTS save files (if the save file is before entering a training session).

Thanks Sox Fan, unfortunately for me, I haven't done any training sessions. I'm a pitcher and I've never been presented with the opportunity to do a training session.

I had just finished a game, did the autosave, then it would not let me advance. I don't have any prior saves either. I might be S.O.L. for the time being...

Oh well, at least Knights rosters come out soon. My RTTS was just to hold me over until then, it was getting exciting though, but what can you do?

Thanks again.

Yes, there was one year like that, 04 or 05, I don't remember either. I've said it once and I'll say it again, MVP 05 is the most overrated sports game ever (unless its NFL 2K5)! Not saying it was a bad game, but overrated.

This is a great game, but there are some problems that should have been caught right away, and a patch for those should've been waiting on release day. The CPU roster control lineup problem comes to mind.

Rudy, you are correct, SCEA does get defended a lot here. You'd swear it was people's mamas or something getting criticized. But, I think it's because they have done a much better job of addressing complaints, and communicating to us than a lot of the other companies.

Some of the comments on here are completely over the top. You have the right to complain, but you lose all credibility when you act like the game is unplayable.

Have patience, they will fix what they can. It still beats the heck out of MLB 2K9, lol.

I agree!
