Anyone else excited about this game?

 

The biggest change is the implementation of analog controls for most aspects of the game: pitching, throwing, batting. But the feature I'm most excited about is offline/online 2-player co-op. This is a feature that was in in EA's NCAA Baseball 06 game, which I loved: basically 2 players can control 1 team (so if one player is pitching, the other can control the defense, or just the outfielders or infielders, etc.) and you then take turns batting as you see fit. This means you can get a 2 vs 2 couch game going (or 2 vs online!) which should make this a really fun party game (for us baseball fans, at least).

 

Out in early March, I can't wait!

The one reason I wish I had a PS3

I played The Show 07 at Best Buy, 2 weeks later I bought a PS3. I'd be scared of seeing how many hours I pour into this game every year.

 

But I'd say there's plenty of reasons to get a PS3: Blu-Ray, Uncharted, Metal Gear Solid, Little Big Planet, God of War, Gran Turismo, etc. The exclusives list is pretty impressive and ofcourse you've got all the cross-platform games as well.

+1

I bought my PS3 for one reason, The Show. Eventually I've also used to for Blu-Ray and Gran Turismo 5.

 

Totally worth it.

Meanwhile I don't use mine for Blu-Ray. Refusing to convert even though the quality is better cos I have so many DVD's I don't want them to become irrelevant.

The Show is the reason I still play any video games. If I didnt have to look forward to the quality of that game every year, I'd be fine moving on from video games by now. That is essentially the one game I crave to play all the time. I'll play other things here and there but nothing captures me like The Show does.

Well I would also get a PS3 if I could afford one right now

You do know that Blu-Rays are DVD players as well right?

Yeh but I already have a DVD player in the same room

I'm curious, do you have your ps3 connected to your tv via hdmi? Because it does a great job of upscaling dvds. They look really good! You'd never use your dvd player again.

I only use the classic control every year so the changes this year for me are minimal but I'm still getting it.

It upscales whaaaaaaat?!?! How didn't I know this before. I'll try it out later and maybe it will be bye bye DVD player.

MVP Baseball 2005 will forever be the Baseball Game I loved so much.

I still play it to this day and I probably will continue until I finally buy a PS3.
