MLB '08: The Show News, Strategy Guides, Screenshots & Videos

Great game with minor flaws that leave room for improvement.

A few minor glitches, but the Show is not the standard by which all games will be measured.

The best game I have played in a while, great job SCEA.

This is my favorite baseball game of all-time. This is how you make an immersive sports game. The only issues I have are player detection and the fact that they cant get the online to run smoothly...which is disapointing. But overall Sony should be commended for putting the time in to making a great baseball game. Sony THANKS!

Missing a Swing Stick, and no contact needs to be fixed but those are so tiny when everything else is unbelieveable

great game

Great graphics, solid gameplay

Great game improved on last year's great game. The new advancement goals and in-game challenges changes to the RTTS mode makes that mode even better and deeper. Online has been pretty smooth as well after the first couple of laggy days. I can't say enough about how good this game is. Of course there are a few little blemishes like audio problems and fatigue issues in franchise, but nothing so bad that it takes away from the excellent game it is.

9/10

Plays a fun and almost realistic game of baseball. Stadiums look beautiful, Presentation is awesome, Road To The Show is definitely interesting. Not a fan of the pitching meter or throwing meters. Colors seem off, almost washed out, like someone jacked up the brightness on my display. Does anyone hit a slow grounder in this game?? Hit variety is lacking. Seems like everything is hit hard unless it's a pop-up or a high fly ball. Doesn't feel like I have total control of my fielders. Sometimes they just seem to move themselves and what's with the little hop before they throw?? Too much clipping between players as well.

Despite my gripes, it still plays a good game of baseball.
