Super Mega Baseball 4 Is Coming to PS5, PS4's EA Play Catalogue

This is a fantastic series but honestly, the one thing that turned me off from this particular version is the addition of the former players. I like this franchise for its cartoonishness, not so much the introduction of real world players.

Is there a sport more boring than baseball?

Shame that the series has took a major nose dive and this entry is garbage.

NFL Street please.

@riceNpea cricket

@Hundred_Hand_Slap yes, it's a close one. But I give cricket the edge seeing as it's a properly international sport, and the sport men don't do disgusting things like chew tobacco and spit.

@riceNpea we don't play Cricket in Canada or the US and chewing tobacco is more of an 80's/90's thing. Most ball players don't do that stuff anymore except for a couple fossils that are left.

I have Super Mega Baseball and it’s fun. Haven’t tried any of the newer ones, though. It might be worth giving EA Play a go again sometime soon. I tried it out one other time for a month and played all the games I was interested in, but I see Dead Space is available on it, and so is Super Mega Baseball 4! Sounds good to me!

@riceNpea It’s funny you say Cricket is an international sport, as it’s popular all over the world except for the US (and probably Canada, I’d guess). It’s literally not played AT ALL in the US. That said, as a person from the US, I’d love to get a good Cricket game for the PS5. Unfortunately, it wouldn’t sell well in the US because of an overall lack of exposure to the sport. I’ve watched a couple of YouTube videos of Cricket, and it seems like it’d be fun to play, and I also played a bit of Don Bradman’s Cricket game for the PS3 on PS+. It was kinda cool, but, ya know, it’s a PS3 game, so it’s old and needs some work.

Sports we don’t play or know much about in the US (at least in Minnesota) include: Cricket, Polo, Water Polo, Rugby, Australian Rules Football, Lacrosse, or Handball. We do have a rugby field at the nearby college, but that’s not saying much…I mean, we have a hammer throw area, too. 🤣🤣 Anyway, rugby’s not a sport that’s big overall in the US, and most people don’t know the rules. NFL football, NBA basketball, MLB baseball, and NHL hockey are the big four popular sports in the US—in that order. We do have some major league soccer teams becoming more popular as time goes on, though. (Go Minnesota United FC!! Go Loons!!)

In case there are game developers reading this: Please consider making PSVR 2 games of Frisbee Golf, Badminton, Pickleball, Raquetball, and Croquet. I’d also like to see VR games for axe throwing, cornhole, and professional tag…oh, and a cool bubble hockey game in VR would absolutely ROCK!! 😀😀

@jgrangervikings1 cricket is international and it not being played in Northern America doesn't really change that as many of the world's most popular sports are not mainstream over there. But its odd that cricket isn't popular there seeing as American sports are generally stat heavy, which cricket shares. It's even TV friendly in as far as you cam easily squeeze lots of adverts into a TV broadcast.

But then sport in America is very resistant to competition. Even within its own domain. For example the NBA thinks it owns basketball and has tried to stop an off-season veterans league from occurring for fear of it taking people away from the NBA.

And I fond ot really ironic that rugby isn't popular there. I've seem Americans go wild about plays in NFL games that feature huge tackles, special plays that see kick off punts returned for a touchdown whilst tackles fly in and blocks are made, stuff that occurs every minute in a game of rugby.

Rugby is so much more entertaining than the NFL, and all the peacocking by men thinking they're tough all wrapped up in padding and armour is really off-putting to me. I would love to see a cross-discipline game between the two sets of athletes.

And I second you for all those VR games 😁
