I'm a HUGE baseball fan, but I've never loved playing the actual video game by , it takes way too long. But I have always loved a franchise mode. So does MLB have a good franchise mode? I mean, do they have good drafting, trading, free agent, and game simulation, and just general team management?

Yes, it does have a good franchise mode in terms of depth, but the actual gameplay of the game is so buggy, glitchy and just straight horrible that it is probably not worth paying over $20 for. If you can get it for cheaper than that, which you probably can, go for it.

So, if I were to get it just for Franchise and game simulation, but for actually playing it, I'd be okay?

Yes. You can do the pitch by pitch simulation too so you can actually be making all the decisions for the game and see how it plays out. It's a sweet feature. And if you felt like jumping in for a few swings you can.

Awesome, thanks. That sounds awesome. I think'll have to get the game now. Not waiting to pay 60 bucks for 2k10, thats a rip.
