MLB The show 23 is absolutely AMAZING! I'm about 10 hours into the game on my Xbox Series X. Presentation, Graphics, and announcing is the best it's ever been. The bat sounds are incredible!! I'm still not a fan of the PCI or pinpoint pitching. My advice to any old school or new gamer would be to not use it. It doesn't improve anything. It's a gimmick. Directional hitting and Analog pitching work just fine. Now the new meter fielding is incredible. It makes you sweat sometimes because of the timing but makes the experience way more fun than in years past.
Game modes wise, this game is loaded with content. Franchise mode and March to October are my go-to. I love the new scouting system and drafting additions. However, Diamond Dynasty is one of my favorite modes. You don't have to spend real money at all. Just grind and you'll be getting 99 overalls in no time. It's worth it,
Story Lines brings a whole new element to this game!
Talking about the negro leagues and where some of the most iconic players came from is a history lesson in itself. I can't wait to see what they build for story lines in the future. THIS IS OUTSTANDING!!!!
Now my only issue is RTTS mode. It's clearly hasn't been touched, but i understand when you're pumping out a new game every year it's hard to attend to every single mode. It needs a overhaul of what a actual major leaguer goes through on a day-to-day basis.
Look if you're a diehard baseball fan like me you already got the game. Now if your new baseball fan or sports fan in general. This is the best sports game on the market right now. EA Sports games don't hold a candle to what this game brings. This game is well worth every single penny.
Let's GO DODGERS!!!
