I'm thinking of buying 24

Need your opinions. Should I buy 24 if I have 23 already? Is it worth dropping $70 on 24? I mainly play franchise and can care less about the other modes.

Well, it's been the best Franchise Mode I've played from a gameplay perspective and I'm playing with default sliders. However, I think interfaces matter.


That being said: I think it's on a 10% discount currently. You could speculate that it might get discounted even more relatively soon because there have been problems with Diamond Dynasty and the DD addicts have been complaining. This has been driving players away, thus lowering revenue. When this happens they'll lower the price to see if the fence sitters and new suckers will bite. Maybe 50%, but I don't know.


I'm on xbox and get it through gamepass. I'll buy it when it drops.

If you are buying it for PlayStation (the original console of the game) don't bother. Unless you like 8 straight strikes to put the AI down to their last strike.... Then, they magically get no less than 2TB on a purposely placed pitch 6 feet off the plate. This title is an RNG Nightmare. It's trash.

Also a Franchise Only guy.

I said I wasn’t going to buy it but Soto on the Yankees just lured me in.

It’s a much better game than ‘23. The strikeout issue has been out to bed. The pitch clock is irrelevant but the pickoffs do change the strategy some. Bullpen sim stats still an issue, nothing has changed there. I control all 30 teams so being able to do the draft this year w all 30 is a big pick up. The scouting is a little deeper if you’re into that. Def. An upgrade, just depends on where you are in your ‘23 franchise really.

Yeah agree. It's a solid game. Gameplay is good and it's visually impressive on a 4K tv.

I would never say don't buy a game at full price if your going to play it alot and get your money's worth

Overall it's a little better than '23 but I thought '23 was very good as well.I don't really find much of a difference in franchise mode though.I bought '23 cheap late in the year as I have gamepass anyway.I hate to abandon a good franchise I have going every year though.

Re: I'm thinking of buying 24

I've only played 19 games so far, but it's my favorite MLB to this point. I'm definitely enjoying it more than 23.

That being said, it's about out a couple of months now. And Memorial Day is coming up, so I'm guessing it will go on sale soon.
