I saw this at PP and nearly wet myself from laughing at what you have to go through just to play in an online league.

What has been discovered goes beyond the ridiculous 14 day wait period which begins after the first time logging into The Show. That has been around for years though so it was expected. With MLB 11 however they have added on new requirements. 10 ranked games have to be completed, a certain “sportsmanship†rating has to be achieved, and the game apparently has to be logged into every couple days. This is true of not only public leagues but any private leagues as well.

Score one for consumer bitching.
Remove that score for Pasta Padre thinking it had to do solely with this article.
(update) Due to the exposure brought by the article SCEA will be removing league restrictions on Monday. More on the handling and decision to do so will be posted tomorrow
What a twat.
