Good game
It is a good game that I would recommend to a friend, but the career mode, which is the main reason I buy these games, is extremely difficult. The amount of attributes you can give your player is the same, but hitting or getting outs is 10 times as difficult. My fielders run away from the ball. It also takes too many training points to improve. My fielder was a 65 in speed and I put 400 points into his speed and he became a 68. But I am just venting, I probably just need to work at it more. It is a fun game to play, and the franchise mode and the actualy gameplay are great.
