I just recently started playing it again and it seems even more fun now for some reason. I originally bought it and played through a short season, and then stopped playing it for a little while. And how accurate and fast you are at doing the gesture determines how well you throw the ball, in addition to the standard timing meter that every sports game has.Īre there any other good baseball games out there for PC that I might have missed? It's a damn shame they didn't continue with the MLB 2k series, because 2k12 is pretty amazing in every respect other than graphics, where The Show always had it beat.įor some reason, I haven't been able to put down Super Mega Baseball: Extra Innings. I love the gesture pitching, and the idea of making a simple up/down gesture on your gamepad stick for a fastball, but a complicated down-left-clockwise circle gesture for something trickier like a knuckleball. It's got everything I could ever want in terms of features, and the actual playing mechanics are superb. Quite frankly, I can't imagine a better baseball game out there.

There's even ENB graphics mods to push your GPU to the limit, ala Skyrim.

It amazingly still has an active modding community with up to date team rosters, player stats, and even completely new player models and textures (the game is surprisingly available to modding). And since the game developers abandoned the idea of PC baseball back in 2011, the last good game we were left with is MLB 2k12. I'd love to be playing The Show with yall on a fancy PS4, but I don't have one.
