MLB 09: The Show - The System Seller?

[WazzuRC]

I'll probably cave within the next few days and get a PS3, The Show, and Uncharted.

My brother wants blu-ray. We both want The Show. So it's a system seller for us. Getting mine tomorrow after work pretty much just to play this game. It may be the only PS3 game we own until next year. Everything else will be 360 most likely.

no IMO, it's not a "system seller"

*close*, but work to be done..still love it tremendously!!. I have about 30 things I'd like for music/atmosphere alone, and about 10 for game play so (even though they wouldn't listen to most) to approve or add, so nothing is ever perfect.

Last time I've have seen another close to an all out game "out of box" was Nascar Racing 2003 Season, still being used a lot 7 years later (and still being tweaked ut its PC)

system seller for me. Just got it a few weeks ago for bluray and then bought the show. I since have purchased Little Big Planet and my GF and I have lots of fun on that ps3 exclusive as well. I will probably also get Killzone 2 cuz the demo is crazy!!

This is the 2nd best sports title ever in my eyes! NASCAR Racing 2003 Season is 1000 times better than this. 7 years still going strong and costs more to buy now than at release. Being able to drive any season from 1980 to present with some 70's years mixed in there all authentic cars... yeah... No racing game will ever come within a eye lash.

But the game we are here to talk about, the show 09 has got all the goods and then some. For a console sports title it will be 7 years before we see anyone come close to what the show 09 is and can only imagine what 09 will become in that same time frame. It took 4 years to surpass MVP 05 and my golly they shot right past it.

If I wasn't a Sony fanboi to begin with and all my Madden league buddies weren't Sony fanbois I would buy a PS3 just for this game!!!!

I bought a PS3 last week just for The Show. Loving every minute of it!!!

No, the RROD is a PS3 seller, though.

I should have clarified early. While I'm basically purchasing it for The Show at the moment, sooner or later I was bound to get one.

The Blu-Ray player is definitely an upgrade for me...seeming how it's going to be the next format of the future. Plus, obviously The Show, God of War, Killzone, and Uncharted for the system.

I like the term "accelerated system seller." I probably wouldn't have purchased it until next year but now I'll probably end up getting it simply for the Show this year in about a week.
