Perception could be altered with the PS4 offering next spring but the brand has taken a slight hit in the meantime even with MLB 13 being ...

Player Face Comparisons Between MLB 13: The Show and MLB 2K13 – The Results
With plenty of time having passed to vote on the player faces in the 2013 editions of the MLB games here are the results. Over 73K total votes were collected through the process and the results were definitive to say the least. While 2K Sports has at least put up a fight in the three years prior, coming out on top 30% of the time, this battle proved to be a far greater mismatch.

A huge benefit to being first party means getting propelled to the front of the line in the patch certification process and not having to pay a significant fee for more after completing the first two free ones. While SCEA hasn't really taken advantage of the latter in recent years for The Show they have the former by getting the first extensive patches out within a matter of weeks. That happened again with MLB 13: The Show as a hefty update that came out in late March and now the company has...
