      Funny that they say the Orioles are the most popular team, the only teams I play with are the Orioles and the Athletics.

        Well deserved. I told you guys install base does not necessary mean much, people are tired of last gen and last gen sales have really tanked software and hardware.

            Am I the only one that was trying to divide that reported stats by 10 million games played? LOL!

            Congratulations Sony SD! You deserve it!

              Great news and well deserved for the best and most dedicated dev team in the business.

              Now lets hope they get some more manpower for 15 so they don't have to sleep under their desks during crunch time

              Congrats SCEA San Diego!
              Can't wait where you guys take this series in the years to come.

                I'm not an Orioles fan per se, but I play with them in my off-line franchise. I really like Camden and the Orioles uniforms.

                    This is awesome and it's interesting how the Orioles are the most played team. I thought they would be the Dodgers, Angels or Braves.

                        As expected the next-gen thirst is real, can't wait for NPD later today.

                          Longest home run 553 feet..... WHAAAT. Haha.


                          I did a quick HR derby with Stanton, Encarnacion, Wilin Rosario and Chris Davis just trying to test if you could hit longer homers this year. Longest I hit was 480. Might need to try again

                          I was CONVINCED in MLB 13 The Show that there was something written in the code limiting homers to around 498-499 feet since I could never hit one longer than that in hundreds and hundreds of games played and a few dozen HR derby's



                          Any devs who may be lurking, any way you could tell me what the longest HR hit on 13 was? lol. Or explain how the variance in HR distance works in the game

                            Also, it would be awesome if this increase in sales translated to an increase in budget

                              I've hit a few over 500 ft.
