    Considering purchasing HELP!

    is SMB2 a significant upgrade from SMB1? Both on sale... 1 is 3.99 and 2 is 16. is it worth the 13 dollar difference to buy 2?




    Also... is there roster sharing, or just strictly I make all my own stuff.




    I'm on console

    Buy SMB2, not SMB1. Full team creation, logo editor, and for those that like online play it has that. The player models aren't quite as cartoony in 2, but it still has a fun arcade style look.

    SMB1 is way more shallow, less teams, less modes, no online play, no team creation. Not worth it.

    Gameplay feels pretty similar. I went about 7-8 months between playing SMB1 and then playing SMB2 and honestly it feels the same to me.

    I'm on XB1. No sharing.

      PV answered pretty much all of it, but the gameplay has also been significantly refined in SMB2 for me. The controls and such are the same, but there are a lot of under the hood tweaks that have just made much more sense from the previous game.

      The customization shows moments of robustness, and then it shows its many deficiencies at the same time. I have fun with it though and is definitely worth owning this version to have.

        I think SMB2 is one of the best baseball games I've ever played. It's just fun and the customization options just add to that. If you've got the time to make your own teams, you'll get a lot of mileage out of it.

          Bought SMB2... LOVE IT. Began creating a team with my friends and family on it. I have missed out for a long time. Love the game. It's just fun

                I played the demo for 2. Loved it and bought it. Played it a lot. Created my own team with some awesome uniforms. Great game.

                  Perfect for Xbox guys who can't get their hands on a ps4 or the Show. A perfect baseball game.

                    for me it's a way better experience than the show.

                      I agree, to me it’s way more fun than the Show. And don’t waste your time with the 1st SMB, 2 is a huge improvement, imo.

                        YES!!! The post above this one FTW. Glad I just went ahead and purchased SMB 2.

                          I got SMB 2 for free on games with gold and I still want to pay them for it. Keeps me from buying a PS4 but the show 19 may be too much to ignore. Not to mention non sports exclusive

                            I never played SMB1, and I enjoy SMB2, but I was disappointed that there did not seem enough difference between players, based on their ratings. The players just felt too similar for me.

                              They actually feel closer to each other now than they did pre-patch, except for the contact rating.

                              I somewhat disagree, though. I don't know if you're talking about the numbers or pure results, but I'm seeing the discrepancies that I need to see. I know that there's nothing really all that bad about widening that gap if need be, but I don't feel the concerns you are so much.
