The storyline is sort of like MLBPP 2008 and 2007 mixed, except bigger! You start with high school first, then go up to college for three years (your choice of 16 schools), then go up to rookie leagues, then A, then A Advanced, then AA, then AAA, then MLB, but you have to sign with an agent first (usually would be Matthew) to play in the rookie leagues!


Here are the success mode teams:
High School
Fast Food High Hamburgers
Powerful High Tulips (the team you play with)
Techno High Robots
Knightful High Aegis
Army High Generals
Medic High Doctors
Comedy High Comedians

College (NCAA)
Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets
Georgia Bulldogs
Florida Gators
Rice Owls
Universe Champion Rings
Michigan Wolverines
Clemson Tigers
Oklahoma Sooners

Then, you sign with an MLB organization and you move on from the minor leagues from there with that MLB organization. Depending on where you go, you meet new players from there.

Rosters (Non-playable characters all rest of roster are scrubs)
Fast Food High
Fry
Burga
Chili
Rex
Bean
Money
Dollar
Ronald (clown who clowns around)
King
Walter

Powerful High
Mark
Toby
Alvin
Marvin
Robert
Su Snuka
Brad
Frank
Parker
Robin
Buck
Taylor

Techno High
Buster
Liam
Dexter
Dmitri
Yoshi
Koji
MacArthur
Reed
Mouthpiece

Knightful High
Arthur
Booker
Patrick
Raegis
Lee

Army High Army
Mars
Hotel
Jet
Plane

Medic High
Dr. Phil
Dr. Stone
Dr. Hart
Dr. Reed
Dr. Eric
Dr. Ken
Dr. James
Dr. Lloyd
Dr.Maywetherlamacchastupiddoosh

Comedy High
Jeff
Bill
Larry
Cable Man
Ralphie
Dat Pen

$ Lane High
Bucks
Dollars
Cents
Banks
Juan Dollar
TwentyFive
Five
Penny
Nickel
Dime

NCAA
Universe Champion Rings
Jonathan
Zero Gibson
Gaia
Ramon Garciaparra
Scott Zone
Magic Atlas
Earvin Hall
Tony Johnson
Tony Gwynn II
Snake Roberts
Jake Duggan
Christian "Corn" DiBiase
Alvin Lockhart
Brett Hart
Hitman Ortiz

There will be a draft of NPCs and scrubs and what ever college they and you choose, you will probably have teamates from high school and possibly some new teamates from the other high schools you have played. However, what ever school you choose, Marvin will be on the same team. You probably will have competion with Jonathan, Zero, and possibly Nomar's brother, Ramon Garciaparra (which probably would play for Champion Rings). Yes, Rudy Fox would be in the game. So would Becky, Sarah, Lucy, and Patty who you would be able to date during success mode.

When you make the majors, you will get to meet every single player in every league that you go in the organization that you choose. The first agent that you sign with is Matthew, just like MLB Life mode of 2008! Remember, you don't do good or well, YOU'RE FIIIIIIIIIIRRRRRREEEEEEEEDDDDDD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well, how would you like that?

I think that would be fun, but would take a while.

I like it alot. It sounds like fun to go from high school to the big leagues. Looks like you put a lot of time into this idea (names especially). It would get a bit long winded, though. Option to play this or just college, minors etc. wouild be good. Hall of fame, retiring number, it would be neat. :D

Only an enhanced my life mode??? In order for this mode to work, they would have to.....

1) get permission from those colleges to use there names in the game.
2)extend the stats in the game from G (lowest) to A (highest) and turn that into R (Lowest) to A (highest) .... Really though, think about it. Add 4 years in HS, 4 in College, that is already 8 years. And they can't fire you right away in the majors....(they have to give you at least 4-6 chances to show you are the great athlete you seem to be as a feilder and 2-4 as a pitcher)

But one question.

1)What would be the ultimate goal in this mode? (other than win a world series)

2)This mode won't end until you retire or get fired?

3)Then what would you need to do to be "Successful" and allow your player to be used in all other modes?

4)And wouldn't there be a possibility of "ANY" player (including yourself) of getting traded to another team since you are only a player, not a GM?

I wrote too much didn't I?

EDIT: I wrote more than one question sorry....

I LOVE it! That idea is my total dream. That would be sweet to go to the Majors with all of the Tulips and play Patrick, Jonathan and Gil on the way. That's a great idea! :P

You make a good point, but why not just make it "Win a World Series"? You player can then be used for all other modes (Season etc.) put you keep playing until you get fired, retire whatever. As for colleges, the put their names in other sports games, why not MLB PP whatever year?

They probably don't have the proper liscense.

Good point, but they could get one or just make up colleges like in 07'. This is a fairly popular game, i'm sure konami could work out a deal i they wanted to.

It is harder than you would think to get a liscense for something like that but they could probably do it since they are such a big company.

I like it and would play it. It sounds like a whole though. They should do high school or college again. Or a foreign professional league. I would love to play for the nagoya lizards *chunichi dragons*


They do a season mode to where you build a team to work your franchise up to MLB by beating the worlds smaller professional baseball teams. Went the championship or attention by beating the worlds best. Call it world challenge mode or something like it.

No matter what happens, it would be fun to have longer than 2 years.
