The biggest change to the game comes with the addition of Pure Analog
Control. That's right, buttons are about as hip these days as players
wearing stirrups, so Sony has finally changed the control scheme for
hitting, pitching, and throwing to be all analog based (although if you
want to play old school and use buttons, you can still find last year's
controls in the options menu).
That said
I've been a fan of "The Show" franchise for many years now, and I
have to say, the 2011 edition blew me away. I spent a full day playing
the game, then the following week attended Sony's New York preview event
where I sat down and played another full 9-inning game. When I got back
to my hotel room following the event, I still couldn't get the game (or
the awesomeness of Brian Wilson's polygonal beard) out of my mind. It's
similar to how I felt the first time I saw "NBA 2K11" -- sometimes you
just get that feeling that you're playing something special, and "MLB
11: The Show" is shaping up to be one of the biggest sports game of the
new year. If only they would add orange cleats ...
