It's fitting that the Perfect Game Challenge for MLB 2K13 begins on April Fools Day considering the product made available to consumers this year was for all intents and purposes a joke.

Part One of Player Face Comparisons Between MLB 13: The Show and MLB 2K13
With baseball one of the last remaining sports that have competition - whether that continues to be the case in 2014 is up in the air at this point - the player face comparison between the two games has been one of the most popular features of the spring the last few years.
