I'm a baseball fan, but i definitely think The Show is the best sports game on any console. More in depth then any other series. Rule 5 draft, Arbitration hearings, 40 man rosters! woot!

Heh, if you couldn't hit last year have fun.....

I have mine a full level lower plus some sliders helping, I finally have it tweaked to where I can get shut-out by an ace and pound a #5. Of course sometimes you pound the ace and get shut out by the #5, but damn is it realistic.

I love NHL '09, but it feels nowhere near as close to realistic as The Show.

Oh and for those considering buying a PS3 for this game, many, many have done that. Check out some sports gamking websites and see how many have.

So is this game just as good on the PSP, because that's the only thing I've owned it for. I don't own a PS3, but I feel like I am missing out by owning the PSP versions.

I would but I can't justify owning a 360, a Sony Blu-Ray player, and a PS3.

I feel hatred, I never wanted it to come down to having to own all 3 systems. I must resist..damn you people and all your happy joy joy feelings on this game.

Sorry to bump a old thread, but how long did it take you guys to get the MLB in Road to the Show, I just started and it seems like it will take 3 seasons at least.

This the one developed by Blue Castle Games?

Ironically I just got this game yesterday. I'm not much of a baseball fan but so far I'm liking it. Way more in depth than the last baseball game I owned(MLB 2K7).
