What about in the gameplay??? How the CPU respond to certain situations differently from last year...if it does??? And does the game still have moods for the players where one game they could be playing really well and the next game they cant pitch or hit at all???

Since this is in the success mode forum I'd say the biggest difference between then and now is you can get cut if you don't do good enough.

Probably the best difference too, other than Jack's slightly improved play-by-play

Oh so Jack improved? Yeah! Last year I crushed a 480 ft HR and he said "a weak dribbler up the middle."

It's much better this year. Still some flubs as was expected but overall improved.

I'd say the flow of success mode is better. It feels more open and a little less random that last year. You have much more control over the course of the mode. At least it feels that way.

Ok good. When me and my broter play exhibition games we like to count how many weird things he says.

mlb life [My life] mode is the reason why I bought the game, success is okay but life mode seals the deal. Now if you could unlock the npb teams and maybe other world baseball teams.
