  • i hate in mlb 11 the show, how when i think i can make the throw from outfield to home i would throw it to the cut-off man and he wouldnt throw to home plate.....also if i its hit to the outfield and i try to throw to third or somewhere, it wouldnt throw to there....

  • J COLE!!!!!

  • Baseball games stick to their traditions, and that's good. Three minutes later he's bitching about new game modes lol.

  • i really wish ea would bring back the mvp baseball series..or ncaa baseball...loved those

  • @rudyuhde15 2k and EA need to swap rights with football and baseball. The EA games had better baseball than 2k and 2k football games were better than any Madden ever.

  • @AceofSpades91919 EA hasn't made a baseball video game since MVP Baseball 2005. The Show is from Sony San Diego.

  • @AttackoftheSequels You didn't understand what I was trying to say. I was trying to say that EA needs to switch with 2k, I know Sony makes these games. MVP Baseball games were amazing and 2k football games were amazing. Now 2k has the rights to baseball games and EA has the rights to football games. 2k baseball games suck and Madden looks good, but it really isn't good. I was responding to the guy who said that EA should make some baseball games again, that's why I said what I said.

  • It just didn't make much sense. MLB doesn't sign exclusivity deals and The Show picked up everything EAs baseball games did right and improved on them. That's why EA shelved the MVP series after 2005. And as for 2K's football games, they made one back in 2007 and everyone shit on it because it didn't have the NFL license. If they made another one, they'd have to cannibalize 2K8's engine as a source for a whole new one in order to stand up to Madden. Wishful thinking.

  • @AttackoftheSequels You clearly haven't done your research. Back in 2004 2k made NFL 2k5 which was one of the best football games and still is. If you look at gameplay you will not see what I mean, you have to play it to understand why it is good. In 2005 Sony already has rights to the MLB. The NFL is giving rights to EA or 2k, EA jumps on it and gets it first (with NCAA and Madden, EA just decided to giveup on the MVP franchise). 2k settled for MLB rights. Both are making a mockeryOFthoseSPORTS

  • @AceofSpades91919 Don't patronize me. I still have NFL 2K5 for Xbox and All-Pro Football 2K8 for PS3. Despite how great a game 2K5 was, don't let nostalgia blind you. If 2K8 showed us anything, it's that the system needs to be modernized. Frames dropped, playbook selection was lacking, and the presentation in every department took a huge hit with the loss of the NFL and ESPN licenses. 2k5 was an incredible game of football, but this is 2012, it needs some major updates to the feature set.

  • @AceofSpades91919 And EA stopped making MVP because Take-Two (who owns 2K) worked with the MLB to lock EA out. They didn't "settle" for the MLB license. Try doing your research before bitching about mine. I'm saying that EA picking up the MLB license again would be a mixed bag. I'm a PS3 owner and already play The Show, which took anything good to come out of EA's series and has had six years to improve on it. The only way they'd turn major sales is by targeting 2K's market share specifically.

  • @rudyuhde15 yeahh brroo saww your comment about mvp bseball

    i wish i could of play ncaa baseball someday again

  • Online team play? OMFG YES!

  • I was going to watch this but found out that this is the same fuck face that gives poor ass reviews for Sonic games. Even the good ones.

  • the best thing about it is Xbox doesnt have it have fun with 2k hah hah hah

  • where is the mlb2k11 review

  • They needed to make this for Xbox

  • Cime on, PLEASE MAKE THIS FOR XBOX 360!!!

  • @tigerfierce13 im thinkin about gettin a ps3 just for this game

    2k is wack compared 2 it by just watching some games

    

  • 0:46 Get spanked

  • The commentators where never that good on the show :(

  • i still play with the pure controls

  • 4:02 nice play by jeter!!!!

  • Wow, so MLB The Show is exclusive on PS3, sweet! =)

  • I'm not into randomly bashing IGN but giving this an 8 is a fucking JOKE. This is possibly the best game on the PS3, and their criticism? That it needs new modes? Yet they go fucking moist for every Call of Duty game going! Every CoD is the same as its predecessor. What a joke. Although I would say that a post season mode would be nice. And fix diving, the number of times ive had a fielder leep hoplesley over a ball hit just beneath him is painful

  • Although the visuals are better than with MLB2K11, I believe the mechanics are not. MLB2K11 had lots of improvement done to it AS well. Fielding works great too, with few exceptions.

    Hitting is almost the same, but the analog pitching works better in MLB2K11, which is still my favorite here. As far as mechanics (and visuals) in a Baseball game, Blue Castle Games (published by 2K) did a tremendous job with the arcade "The Bigs 2" in '09.

  • MLB 12 the show will be way better it just need more things add during a game like show who's win or losing in the franchise mode

  • what version is this? i have the playstation2 version and it looks nothing like this.

  • @BoyOfBaseball the PS3 version looks much better

  • @AlbertimusPrime oh, that makes sense, when mlb 12 comes out, ill buy the ps3 version, thanks a lot bro :)

  • On every single sports game they review, they minus points for "no new game modes," It makes sense, because if the developers don't add in team deathmatch, the mode list will be lacking.

    *Sarcasm*

  • Make the show for xbox 360 please!!!!

  • analog is fine, after one game i was fine, if not better

  • Look at the scoreboard at 2:28

    DereH Jeter.

  • Online team play, just like NHL. Have lobbies with 18 players max, with two captains total. Each player picks either P C 1B 2B 3B SS LF CF RF, and if theres only like 7 or something on a team, then the computer can do it. THAT SOUNDS BEAST!!!!!!!!!

  • @yankeesteelerfan4313 thats actually a damn good idea hahahaa

  • @yaboypetey17 They should do it!!!

  • in real life yankees will never trade jeter

  • whats the song at the end

  • @NickSal95 blow up- j cole

  • WHAT THE HELL IGN?! same old modes? really? jesus its a baseball game what other modes do you want? freakin team deathmatch?!

  • this games great but my only problem is the music sucks :( except for free ride of course

  • I agree soo much with g0cub5g0.

  • have they fixed that the fielders hand goes through the runners body?

  • how to you do this sliding move at 4:02 ??? doesnt work with R2 ...

  • it deserves a 9

  • Its funny how ppl say mlb 2k11 is bad but mlb the show stole the analog pitch from 2k11

  • Why on earth does anyone find MLB 10 better? Really? Everything that is in 10 is in 11 yet 11 improves on 10 in several areas. If you don't like the analog pitching then they have the 2 modes from 10(which both of them were terrible).

    MLB 11 The Show is FAR better than MLB 10. Both crush the highly glitchy 2k11 in every way :)

  • i just bought a ps3 just for this game

  • SONG AT 3:49

  • @ColdcutmanHAHA J. Cole - Blow Up

  • hes right about the trade AI being the best. i play as the red sox in season mode and i keep trying to trade john lackey and daisuke matsuzaka but no one shows interest

  • Is it much better than MLB 10 The Show?

  • SIMPLY, THE BEST!!!!

  • Wow! Great looking game!

  • Players look and feel real. Love this game

  • 8.0 is bogus. Best baseball game ever... and it gets an 8.0? 

  • Can you edit player stats in this game?

  • 101 xbox owners disliked this.. lol

  • the controls in this game are beautiful once you figure them all out, this game is nearly perfect, i think they should take the year off in 12, we can play this game for at least 2 years, but i have never played the online so i dunno how good that part works.

  • This game alone makes me regret getting a damn xbox...

  • 1 negative comments takes away 2 points. Dum dumb dumb

  • One top rated comment? NOWS MY CHANCE...

  • @Ejhekk33 hahah

  • @yankeesteelerfan4313 I stole that comment from some other video... LOL!

  • @Ejhekk33 Lol yeah I know I just saw it!

  • @yankeesteelerfan4313 Heh Heh. (That was my bored laugh.)

  • @Ejhekk33 *Golf clap*

  • @yankeesteelerfan4313 I laughed so hard on that my mom thought I got a seizure.

  • @Ejhekk33 Doubtful, but hey, ok, haha

  • @bloodvein3 thank you so much, picked off Rafael furcall my first try :)

  • @barrygish yea, i started a career. 

  • the graphics look terrible for 2011

  • it's funny because everyone hates on ign calling them IGNorant and stuff but everyone also uses ign to give game reviews anyway

  • That's 2k problem they worry about the detail to much worry about the damn gameplay

  • Omg, just bought this game. Amazing, but i don't no how to pick off :-( i have a franchise with the giants. I'm 2-2 :)

  • @mcooke47 if you just got it why are you watching this?? play the game

  • @mcooke47 to pick off, use L2 and press Square for first, "X" for second, and Circle for third. it basically switches the base buttons from when your fielding the ball when it's hit into play. no sweat though, it took me awhile to pick it up. look in the game manual to learn different pick offs too. like fake throws and a deceptive move.

  • i wish this was on xbox :/

  • is there create a player on psp cause i don't have a ps3 or ps2

  • can anyone tell me what happened to classic career mode on the psp?

  • ANALOG pitching is so easy you dumbasses

  • @m16dude12 i kno right!!

  • im gonna save for a ps3 just to get the show

  • we need 3 team trades :b

  • 2k Sucks, The Show is Ok. all we is is EA MVP back thumbs up if u agree.

  • No wonder they didn't review MLB 2k11

  • I need help I have MLB 2K11 for the xbox it's an average game with lots of glitches but I would rather have MLB 11 the show but I only have a ps2 are the graphics still good on ps2 and is it worth the money

  • @JTSNOOP95 the graphics sucks there are even more gliches than any other game system

  • The PSP version of this game is a piece of shit.

  • Thumbs up for j cole at the end!

  • Only negative is the same game modes? What else can be put in for a game mode without being backyard baseball?  IGN needs to stop riding Microsofts dick...

  • @g0cub5g0 Seriously! IGN are the biggest Xbox fanboys around.

  • @g0cub5g0 I wouldnt say their suck MicroSofts Dick. I mean they havent given a XBox game a 10 while MGS4 got a 10.

  • @Beanerexic Yes but there is no MGS game for the Xbox, there is another baseball game for the Xbox. So they give this a average rating so it makes it seem like it's not as good as the other baseball game.

  • @g0cub5g0 funny you say its an average rating, 8 is a good score

  • @Waldoz53 That's not the point. MLB 2k11 gets a 7 and this gets a 8. IMO losing 2 points because "same old game modes" is just stupid. This is all opinion. Go play both games then say MLB 2k11 is even close to a good baseball game.

  • @g0cub5g0 yeah 2k is a good game i bought 2k b4 the show modes are the same. n i always played catcher i hate that in 11 how u hav to play every inning

  • @g0cub5g0

    i think something like, "be an umpire" mode would be cool. especially offline, when you are with two friends, they play against each other and you can play all the umpires.

  • @DoofyJr How about Be A Fan Mode? Select your favorite team, what your going to wear (like your team jersey or just casual clothes), buy some soda and peanuts, and watch and react to the game... Then leave...

  • @GeneralJAOV I don't know if that was sarcasm, but that'd be pretty cool for at least a few innings, choose whatever seat you want, watch from exactly there as you can't go into the stands in reply which they should change. But maybe you'd be able to catch foul balls and stuff.

  • @mpt111 Actually, that wasn't sarcasm... That would be SO COOL to have a collection or foul/HR balls with you. Maybe you could even hang out at the D-backs pool or ride a boat at McCovey Cove at AT&T Park...

  • @GeneralJAOV That would be awesome! Just sitting on your boat, waiting for a power hitter to hit it out the park, that would be great.

  • I know EA didn't make MLB so dont say I said EA made MLB cause im not dumb I know SCE Studios San Diego made MLB The Show 11 and SCE did a better job than EA ever could

  • Does anyone know if you can charge home plate?

  • Will this game play on a uk ps3?

  • @100Soulpower Yes it will.

  • @marsbar5485 Great, thanks!

  • this game is awesome

  • Presentation is horrible

  • Why cant this be for the 360?!

  • @A16Clover made by Sony that why

  • @A16Clover because 360 people are gay

  • @MikeBA10 thats cute

  • what is the song at 3:50

  • @MrHuskieboy Blow Up - J. Cole

  • @MrHuskieboy Blow up- J. Cole

  • damn xbox......

  • The hitting in this game is horrible . It is harder to hit . Give me back 10 .

  • @jjjtp83 you can go to game options and where it says batting interface, you can choose "button" so it will be like normal.

  • @jjjtp83 Change the game sliders to fit how you hit. Helped me a lot.

  • 8?! As in Eight!? IGN... fuck off.

  • Lol Con is .. Same old game modes.. Seriously what else could they even put in for a game mode

  • batting in this game is sooo freakin hard!

  • OMGGGG!! i wish i had a PS3, this looks sooo much better than 2K!

  • there are way too many foul balls though when i am pitching it is uncool. 

  • @gmillz00 you can turn foul frequency down in the options

  • I wish they would improve rtts more than just adding the player sliders at the beggining

  • This game is the only reason I would buy a PS3..... Darn I wish I had money right now!

  • @soxy45 i get mine tommerow or Wednesday sorry man

  • you want jeter... lol good one!!

  • thank you based god

  • way better than 2k11

  • This is my favorite game! Thumbs up if its yours to!

  • @GriffinMcCarley Should I get MLB 11 the Show?

  • @battin42 If you like baseball then absolutely. Best baseball game you can get and one of the best sports games. I can spend hours in Road to the Show

  • in road to the show is it like mlb 2k11 were you only play when your needed

  • screw IGN i like the series so i buy it

  • Luv the graphics, this game rules!!!

  • 93 people have an xbox

  • I found analog hitting almost impossible at first

  • is there anyway to get Clint Hurdle in the game?because i have never heard of the guy that is the Pirates manager in the game?

    Lets Go Pirates

  • should i get this or mlb 2k11?

  • @kday1131 ive always played 2k11 but they say if u got a ps3 to get the show idk 2k11 has always felt good to play

  • @kday1131 The Show

  • @kday1131 TTTTHHHHHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIISSSSSS­SSSSSS

  • @msutton901 It actually has great graphics and it's really entertaining, in my opinion. 

  • If IGN gives MLB 2K11 a higher score, I'm unsubscribing.

  • I dont own this game(mlb 2009 the show), but can you turn off the analog hitting and pitching controls and put them to classic mode like in earlier years? anyone.

  • @tgoodfella yes you can

  • @tgoodfella yes i have mine to classic its to hard with the analog

  • Are there updates in MLB 11 the show? Like when a player or team is doing good or poorly such as the Indians which they are on fire?

  • BRING BACK REX HUDDLER!!!!!

  • This reviewer is a joke.

  • i dont give a shit if MLB 11 the show is an 8.0, my opinion its 10/10. i originally chose socom 4 over this, but being a HUGE baseball fan, imma return socom 4 for my 60 dollars back, and gets this with that 60 i get back :D

  • dear show, please fix the indians ratings

  • This game is the only reason why i'm proud to own a ps3

  • The player looks are better this year. No screen tearing. Excellent gameplay. Cool parks & shadows. Best baseball simulation hands down is The Show. It's re-donk-ulous...

  • Does it ever rain in this game?

  • how are you gonna say its the best then give it 0.3 points more than 2k which is crap???

  • 2k is like the "Y2K bug"...full of crap...the show rules...nuf said

  • @josh666666ify Say that to nba2k11's face lolz

  • @RaiRai122302 hehe i think i did...2k fanboys went berserk lmao

  • @josh666666ify the mlb should revoke 2k sports licence to make baseball games cause they suck at it. it's unfair that the only good baseball game is an exclusive title for playstation consoles. its bad enough that i don't have my psp anymore:( give the licence to ea. mvp baseball ruled

  • @goford90 yeah ur a 100% ryt lol

  • @josh666666ify thats true for MLB but 2k is the best for Hockey and Basketball because 2K makes little details that people want and EA just re-invents old features that were already in past games and everyone already have seen and that the players EA makes, look like plastic barbie dolls

  • @josh666666ify It's one thing to say the show is better but it's another thing to keep mentioning it on every baseball video and keep bashing it over and over

  • @josh666666ify they both rock but 2k i think has a better gameplay

  • @11jagsplayer

    I have to go w/ mlb 11 the show

  • And once again, this proves that kiddies only care about scores.

  • #business.... bu 8.0 is kinda underrating it and really being nit-picky. THe biggest thing this game needs to change is the audio commentary... vasgersian and crew need to go. Karros didn't really make an impact...

  • If anybody's interested in buying a PS3 Slim, I'm currently selling one for auction on eBay. If you're interested, check out my channel's video. Thanks!
