Sony has just announced the Playstation Sports Volume pack 1 exclusively for PS3. The pack will include Sony San Diego’s, MLB The Show 14, and 2K’s, NBA 2K14. In addition to the two games, you will receive $10 worth of in-game currency.
The pack is, without a doubt, a collection of two of the more highly rated sports franchises in the past year. The Show features many enhancements and upgrades from the previous years’ title and the new features sets were outlined on the Playstation Blog:
Year-to-Year Saves — For the first time in franchise history, saves can be carried over from MLB 14 to future releases of The Show, meaning that gamers won’t have to worry about starting their Franchise or Road to the Show seasons over in years to come.
Quick Counts — Users will now be able to play a full nine-inning game in less than 30 minutes, half the time it takes in previous iterations of The Show. Despite the shortened game durations, realistic stats will not be compromised.
STUBS — Playing games in MLB 14 The Show rewards players with Stubs. Stubs can be used to purchase additional in-game content — like Road to the Show training points — or used in our new mode, Community Challenges. Stubs can be earned in any mode, and they are not required to progress through a mode. You can still purchase additional in-game content through the PlayStation Store.
NBA 2K14 has sold well and has quite a few enhancements of its own. Being able to own two of the better sports titles to come out this year at $89.99 (a savings of $30 vs MSRP) is a great deal, but it would have been a home run if the PS4 versions were offered.
