Is it just me, or did Season mode become alot easier? I mean, A HELL of alot easier.

I had 105-57 season with the Tigers, and literally that had me dumbfounded. I mean sure the Tigers made some good trades during the off season last year, but I would it wouldn't make us this good (in game). Because if this was a real season, it'd be the best in franchise history and the team's first World Series in almost 25 yrs.

I was blown away literally at how well the team performed in the game, compared to the suck ass team I had in 2007's edition. And trust me, that's a different story for a different month. :|

WOW, just.....PLAIN.....WOW :shock:

Not to mention, I got 43 HR's with Ordonez, and 56 with Caberera and plus not only that. Inge got 30 and Granderson had 27.

I love my Tiger Boys, but this was just DAMN, we're good. Only wish it came true in real life, for those who ask the question: I rented it for a week, and won the world series by simming 75% of the season.

I'm not daring enough to venture into Expert yet, but this was on Normal. I do admit. But still it seemed ass easy either way, 07 or not. :)

off topic: how do you put the selection for the 08 console underneath your name? :?:

it seems just as easy, actually.
I was 5000 over salary only because of Chone Figgins, BJ Upton, Scott Linebrink, and Ryan Franklin. Being the Giants didnt help...

I use all powerful (the hardest) and I do well with salary, though with the Yanks it's always a challenge. That part (the buisness/managment side to it)I enjoy, but the games are still to easy.
