MLB 2008: The Show Review
A new baseball season dawns on us, and with that comes new games.
I had a chance to get a hold of the newest copy of MLB 2008: The Show and I have to say I am quite impressed. MLB 08 The Show for PlayStation delivers the closest experience possible next to actually playing in the Majors.
MLB 08 The Show is the long running officially licensed baseball title available exclusively on all PlayStation platforms: PLAYSTATION 3, PlayStation 2 and the portable PSP.
Now with all new games, there are improvements, and things that could have been improved. For example, the game is more realistic in a way that the pitches come at you faster than last years version giving you the feel of actually being up at bat. I remember from last years game that the fastballs took their time getting to the plate, resulting in high scoring games. It also has pitchers adapting to the batters as the game progresses, and the umpire personalities provide interesting quirks as you may find an umpire with a wide strike zone compared to one with a small strike zone.
As for the negatives the commentary stands out the most. It is the same as last year and half the time they still don't know what they are talking about. A couple other gripes I have for this game is that unfortunately you cannot import you Road to the Show career player. This bummed me out a bit since I had progressed very far with my character and would like to have continued his success.
With the above mentioned, MLB 08 The Show is the best-selling and most realistic baseball simulation available, and MLB 08 The Show is available exclusively for PlayStation 3, PlayStation 2 and PlayStation Portable consoles.
I highly recommend this game to any baseball fan who enjoys video games. I know I will be playing this game through out the season and look forward to next years version.
Get your copy as MLB 08 The Show is available right now wherever video games are available.
