  • MLB THE SHOW is the best baseball game!!

  • do you know that at PNC Park in Pittsburgh they have bathrooms outside with just a wall about waist high so you can still watch the game while you are going to the bathroom....I gues thats why they call it PNC Park!!!! Roll Over From Laughing!

  • mlb 2k5 for xbox was when of the best baseball games, but after that mlb the show took it over. When espn came out with with their sports titles in 2005 they were all awesome and affordable, $20s brand new release.

  • is there a "behind the pitcher view" in this game?

  • Hey i have this on playstation i can't even hit the ball please tell me how

  • Hey i ja

  • like if u think most people are lazy and sim unlike me i play but takes like 5 months to complete i like it

  • mlb 11 is awesome did u see the scoreboard light up ding ding ding an minute maid park

  • the ppl in this game look like someting not like that bullshit

    in 2k

  • at least the pirates can beat a minor league team

  • i can play this game all day. am no good though :)

  • no wonder he only plays shooters he blows at MLB The Show haha

  • do you only play minor league teams

  • minor league vs major league?

  • Baseball for NES & BASEBALL STARS are the best 2D baseball games

  • @akvalues Prime example..RBI Baseball for NES

  • man i wish the psp game looked like this!

  • amazing omg

  • Bigs2= best gameplay MLB show= best graphics 2k=best glitches

  • @ZeDaxter what is Bigs2

  • @slingblade98 a arcade type baseball game

  • @ZeDaxter hell yeah

  • i do agree the defense is boring

  • or were those old jersey's i meant at the beginning of the game?

  • they were wearin the retros. pittsburgh has their names on the back.

  • do the pirates not have their last names on their jersey's in this game?

  • lol Frisco 8-19! every minor league team in this review has a record of 8-19

  • So people, stop avoiding my steady facts and start proving me wrong for once when it comes to this shitty typical game called "MLB the show" Which will lead our baseball franchise nowhere ; )

  • 6:28 thats my minor league team rite there

  • too bad this isn't for the PC and that's why it SUCKS

  • how do the minor league stadiums look in this.i have 08 version  for ps2 and the altoona curves park is not blair county ball park but a made up park.looks like southwest setting.are the minor league parks the real ballparks.mlb the show is the best

  • 2k9 sucks dick

  • 2k9 is twice as more better than the show 09.

    The show 09 is way too repetitive. There is nothing new in it.

    In the 2k sports you get to have a lot more options.

    Without mentioning that the commentary in 2k sport is twice as more real than MLB the show.

    Such a shitty game compared to 2k.

  • twice as more? Are you like 8 or are you retarded? And actually 2k9 is awful compared to the show. both have their flaws, but the show blows any 2k sport out of the water.

  • In 2k sports baseball games.

    A) You're able to control pitching coach, hitting coach, trainer coach, baserunner coach, scout coach's settings to improve your player's performance. ( Just like in real life )

    B) Listening to the commentary is just like watching a real baseball game.

    C) You're able to customize your player's outfit.

    D) You're able to argue with Umpires ( just like in real life again )

    Now, should i pinpoint more elements that "2k sports" possess and not "The show"? Yes or no

  • but the gameplay sucks balls. Who cares if they have all of that crap you just mentioned? It doesn't make up for the cartoonishness and crappy gameplay

  • It certainly does sir. Which is why i wouldn't be stupid enough ( Like you guys ) to spend more money on this meanless company "The Show".

    Graphics is not everything.

    The more settings and options a game possess, the more entertainment. The more entertainment? The more joys. The more joys? The better. And you know it.

    I can spend YEARS of playing 2k6. And yet with "the show" Less than a year playing the game would be more than enough. Video games will go nowhere with folks like you.

  • Graphics are everything. The only thing that 2k9 has over mlb the show is the defense is more realistic. The gameplay is too splotchy in the 2k sports.

  • If graphics were everything then don't you think that i would of been delusion as much as you guys? By supporting "the show" at full force? And the gameplay is really realistic dude. Such as when you're batting. Putting the right analog stick back, and release it at a right time to hit the ball!! You seriously can't bit this new method of swinging the bat. The only true flaws in the 2k sports is the bugs that they have in their. They do have bugs. But not massive enough to affect your gameplay

  • 2k6 sucks ...u know nothing of baseball ....the show is the most realistic baseball game avaliable...not 2k shit series...open ur eyes

  • Youtube won't let me copypaste the comment i posted earlier.

    About A, B, C, explaining on how delusional you idiots are about "The show".

    But i will send you this through PM anyways and put you back in your place once more.

    The show's fan boys with the lack of IQ ; )

  • mlb 2k6 on the ps2 is the glitchiest, worst game I have ever played in terms of actually being able to play for 30 minutes without having to restart your system cause the game crashed. The show is just a better game. period.

  • Here is another delusional and idiotic species with the lack of IQ.

    Steady video games will seriously go nowhere with dumb asses such as yourself.

    MLB the show is far from be real compared to MLB 2k6.

    Sure it has glitches but really, it doesn't bother me at all.Way too much options and settings to keep you entertaining.

    You kids have to work your brain a little more and start acknowledging the facts. Stop being dumb for a sec. Like good boys.

  • r u stupid 2k baseball hasnt made a good basball game since...since never....The Show has graphics, gameplay, commentary, the little things, Career mode (AKA ROAD TO THE SHOW), and extras that the quality is so good,2k cant compete with,,,, 2k has melted face physics, poor animations, glitches, poor critic reviews, and it crashes too much...2k shuld stop making baseball games their just wasting their times

  • Haven't you seen the "Message" i sent you? Perhaps you should not avoid it and reply to it like a good boy. And try to prove me wrong on how shitty "the show" isn't compared to MLB 2ks.

    By the way, another major flaw in your statement. The game 2k6 and beyond, have never crashed with me ; )

    This is how far you haters are willing to go to protect a shitty typical game called "The show"

    Giving out lies after lies due to your massive delusions.

  • Oh and one more thing. All of the game modes that you've just mentioned in MLB the show, MLB 2ks DO have them. ; )

    Just so you know before you start making a massive fool out of yourself once again.

    Fan boys of the show are truly below average when it comes to have a steady IQ.

    Now i know why video games will always stay typical.

  • Im not going to argue with somebody tht doesnt know shit about the sport and u think if u say that 2k is better than the show u'll say it enough to believe it urself....dont hate on the show go to a 2k video and true MLB 2k does have those modes but its all glitchy and has no debt k....2k is typical...the same shit every year....while the show adds more detail, and quality every year...did u hear the news on 2k bseball....if they dont make a quality baseball game in MLB 2k10 they will rot

  • I am not arguing. I am just pinpointing the facts here. I am being truthful actually. And who cares about the glitches? It doesn't affect the way you play. Nor it crashes the game. It's easy to go pass it when the game already obtains enough unique entertainment. And 2k is FAR from being "Typical" Do you wish me to prove you wrong right now? On how much of a none typical game 2ks are? And trust me! 2k will never rot no matter what. Thanks to folks like me.

  • your calling me an idiotic species "with the lack of IQ" ? Dude listen to your sentence structure. You sound like a retard. I'm not saying that theres anything wrong with someone liking 2k sport games. You just have to realize that the majority of people who like baseball and like videogames would rather buy 09 the show than 2k9

  • My figure of speeches are PURE steady. I am very sorry if my vocabulary is a bit too high for your little braincells. And you're definitely bothered by people like me who fully support "2ks sports". The obviousness is in your statements.

    And quite honestly? Even I myself would of probably like choosing 09 the show than 2k9. And i am talking about the previous baseball 2ks and not the recent one. The recent one is not better than the old ones. I personally liked 2k6 the best.

  • its my figures of speech not my figure of speeches. lmao. u talk like a fuckin 6 year old. heres proof that your "steady facts" dont mean shit and 2k baseball sucks dick compared to The Show.

    gamespot gave 2k9, 4/10 and called it a fun-house mirror distortion of baseball. the show got 9/10 and was said to be the most realistic sports game on the market. idc if u like 2k sports, but dont try to call people dumbasses when u cant even talk right, and they are making better points than u anyway.

  • How dare you for your little braincells to criticize my English when you're the one who can't even make the differences between "You" and "U".

    And are you THIS MUCH of a society's bitch? Kissing Gamespot's asses due to their meanless popularity? How much more dick will you suck to become a "Pawn" to our society? Now ya know why video games will go nowhere. Gamespot is one of the most idiotic and delusional game site i've ever seen. They don't know what's good.

  • So in other words people, never take Gamespot's word. They are never sound. Majority of their theories are truly meanless and do not make much sense. Sometime they get it right, and majority of the times they certainly don't. Don't let them choose your own taste of games. Fucking pawns.

  • its "soctiety's bitch" not "a societies bitch," dude, seriously, ur not smart. plus, 2k baseball dosent only have bad graphics, its extremely unrealistic, the player's movements and stances all seem jerky and awkward looking. mlb 09 the show has more game modes anyway inlcuding an incredible career mode and a franchise mode that is more in depth than anything ever seen in a sports game, plus all AA and AAA minor league teams.

  • WHat? What the hell was this irrelevant first statement from you supposed to mean on our "Society"? Even though you've spelled it wrong dramatically. Even my little niece who is 9 years old would know how to spell a such simple word.

    And honey! ALL of the game modes that you've mentioned about "the show", well "2K sports" HAVE THEM AS WELL! And on of this, they have more. Are you sure you've actually played "2k6-2K9" before? Seriously.

  • And for the record, i can pinpoint you all of the evidences on how much more of a realistic game is 2K sports, compared to "the show".

    All "The show": Have done so far, is copying "2Ks" actually. And they were able to surpassed 2Ks only with the graphics. And nothing more.

  • @metalnat28 your wrong mlb being came out since mlb 2001. when it came out on ps2 in 2000 so shut up!

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • @DK57JH32 totally. ea needs 2 bring back mvp baseball & they better do it soon or they're gonna regret it

  • i live and europe, and baseball is pretty popular here ( not in england, which is logical lol )

    but, i downloaded it for the psp cause they dont sell it in holland ( where i live, best baseball country in europe :D )

    im getting a ps3 and this is the first game im going to buy :D

  • at 0:55 what is that mini field in the Hooks stadium.

    Where is the hooks satdium???

    who are they for?

  • they're the Astros AA team

  • 09 I think is better.  More realistic. Like watching an actual game. Looks better too.

  • which is better mlb 2k9 or this?

  • The Show, ten times better, but only on PS3.

  • this game is really hard for me..even on rookie? help?

  • Practice and practice more.  I've only started getting decent at this after 6 months playing it nearly every day.

  • this game was hard for me too but it gets fun if you turn the like claassic thing to classic 1/6 and it will be a fun gamee

  • how do u get the camera to get that good quality? do u hook up ur camera to the tv? is so how??

  • I still have 08 but gonna get 09 in a week or two.... have to decide 09 the show or madden 10 what do u guys think

  • if you want the samething in football go for Madden 10 then again you have Mlb 08 it's all up to you

  • im gonna get 09 the show madden is too much of a repeat every year thanks :)

  • 09 the show is just amazing, plus i like baseball because of the strategy, unlike football where they have 50 coordinators working together before each play just for a lousy 4 yard pick up. I'll take mlb 09 thank you.

  • thanks im going to get the show now for sure but mostly because i accidentally traded in 08 the show, fucking gametop didnt even notice i had it in my CoD 4 case. WTF. Lol, but thanks for the input

  • Get both. I even have NCAA Football 10! lol

  • Lol

    Metacritic score:

    Mlb 09 The Show: 90

    MLB 2K9: 64

  • u wish

  • Never played a baseball game or even watched a full game (English guy here) but this looks pretty damned good.

  • It is a bloody great game. I'm from Wales and bought this while in the US a few weeks ago. Trust me I was amazed at how detailed the graphics were & the gameplay.

    It isn't an easy game to play & that's part of the fun of playing this.

  • Okay thanks bud, I'll keep an eye out for it. Bout time I tried something different.

  • No probs. Only trouble is you'll have to order it from the US. I got it while I was over there 3 weeks ago.

    It's frustrating for us Brits who love Baseball but can't play it on our PS3's. Just wish the US would release more US sport game here.

  • This game is fkin brilliant. THE best sports game I have ever played. I'm from the UK and bought this over there in June. Its not left my PS3 since !!!!

  • Same here dude. Took 4 days to deliver.

  • im getting a ps3 mainly because of this game

    this is the best game ever

  • it amazes me how much better this game looks than, say, Madden and NHL 10. There's no comparison with the crowds, lighting, fluidity etc.

  • fuck yea, my fav game that i have, mad realistic and fkn fun

  • Comment removed

  • yeah this is a very good game

  • Hah, you played minor-league teams

  • This looks absolutely stunning. I fell off the bandwagon of video baseball games ever since EA lost the MLBPA license, but this might actually lure me back in. I can't believe how far we've come in just four years.

  • you sound like seth rogan

  • my brother went to a iron pigs game

  • I have a 360 so I was forced to get 2k9...it sucks so much the best part of the game is tim lincecum on the cover...I might buy a ps3 just to get this game

  • agree with you 100%

  • haha thanks man...and Im serious I think this weekend Im going to get one...the things I do for baseball hahahaha

  • i would but i dont have that kind of money =P

  • thats why I got a job hahaha

  • yeah i would say a job is a good way to get money

  • i'm a big 2k fan, but i ca't deny that MLB 2k9 sucks :D

  • Stopped reading after "2k9 all the way".

    Clearly your comment was just a joke. In no way would a mentally stable individual think 2k9 was better. But I'll give you a chance, give a clear and precise explanation on HOW 2k9 wins. Actually - go watch the 2k9 vs 09 The Show comparrison. You won't be able to say 2k9 is better without a straight face, because you'll be laughing at how wrong you are.

  • wow..either you have down syndrome or youve never played the show.

  • i ve mlb 07 wow.....09 looks fwkin awesome....one of the thing i dun like in dis game is the same old COmmentators..they ve mostly same statements over n over.

  • i cant beleive he thinks hes bad, I CANT EVEN HIT THE @#$%ING BALL!

  • what is the best the sow the bigs 2 or 2k9?

  • Between those 3 it's hard to tell because the Bigs 2 is completely unrealistic with 120mph fastballs and 600ft homeruns, but between The Show 09 and 2K9, The Show 09 is definitely better.

  • The show.

  • Are you the same guy from ign's retrocity podcast. You sound like him. And read the same way.

  • what better? 2k9 or the show?

  • The Pirates will most likely move Delywnn Young to second base once Freddy Sanchez is traded, Garrett Jones will move to first and they'll probably recall Lastings MIlledge to play Left. Moss in right, Cruz or Bixler at shortstop and LaRoache at third. Doumit will remain catcher. and McCutchen will play center field.

    Maholm

    Duke

    Ohlendorf

    Morton

    Vasquez

    That will most likely be your pitching rotation. They'll most likely deal Yates and Grabow as well, maybe even Capps.

  • i wish u could argue a call

  • it sucks cause i got a ps2 and a xbox 360 and i have mbl 09 the show 4 the ps2 but it looks like its better on the ps3 than it is on the ps2.

  • Can you argue calls on MLB 09 The Show?

  • u can but they do it by themselves

  • point there but i saw the pirates giants game few days ago and every time mccutchen went up to bat he would hit it at the warning track but aaron rowand had enough time to catch every single hit so mccutchen went 0 for 4 now if mccutchen could perfect an upper cut swing hed be hitten homers like no other cuz he got center field warning track hits with a normal swing =)

  • reds vs. iron pigs phillies aaa team acutally a fair matchup lol

  • major league baseball 2k9 for ps3 sucks hella bad!!

    dont get it

    mlb 09 the show is 10x better!!!

  • nate mcclouth and the laroche brothers r beast but the mcclouth trade wasnt smart hopefully they dont trade the larcoche bros

  • they got rid of adam. i dont understand them. they get rid of there good players but keep the bad ones. like j bay, mclouth, adam, jason kendall, heck i bet in 2 years mccutchen will b gone and prob freddy and jack either b4 the trade deadline or at the end of the season

  • agreed but if they get rid of freddy sanchez theyre freackin morons hes hittin basehits like crazy same with mccutchen

  • 1:28 - 1:32 was an impossible arm with that type or momentum

  • The show is my favorite baseball series. I bought 06 right before 07 came out and have been playing it since then.

  • If only Pittsburgh still had Nate McLouth....

  • I am a braves fan and i am glad McLouth is with us but u guys have Andrew McCutchen. he can fly

  • too bad the pirates just traded morgan and burnette.morgan was exciting to watch and the pirate fans loved him.i love watching mccutchen.how long will they keep him.wish we still had mcclouth.i dont know what the pirates are thinking

  • Good ol pirates. Always in it for the money, and not for the players. Wilson and Sanchez will be gone by the start of next season. Maybe even before the trade deadline..

  • Ya I know

  • is it easy?

  • Yes

  • my mlb 09 cannot work!NEED HELP BADLY REPLY ME!WHEN I PRESS THE GAME,IT WILL LOAD AND SHOW NTH THEN AUTO SHUT!

  • when i was in the franchise mode back when i was playing mlb 06 the show, i would charge 50 dollars for a hot dog lol

  • lol how many hot dogs did u sell per game... 50 bucks for a hot dog lol the computerized ppl probly snuck in food but how much did u charge for a soda 75 dollars id be broke

  • god that makes the ps2 version look like shit

  • probably its older

  • is there any good realistic game like this for original xbox?? i have 2k7 or even for wii

  • would u recomend this game for ps2

  • eh kinda yes and kinda no the ps3 verison is way better that the ps2 verison but if you only have a ps2 the only big difference from last year is an updated roster

  • good review

  • Excellent review

  • i don't like baseball but this game is absolutely awesome

  • can u trade players in this game. i mean like during the season mode.

  • Comment removed

  • yes you can trade

  • yes

  • hahah for the game at toronto, it said he was 8-79

  • idk why mlb 08 looks smoother then 09 i still play 08 not buying this if its frame rate got messed up.

  • its the video not the game

  • Video dude. 09 Runs just smooth as 08 did if not better. I think the animations in 09 look a lot smoother than 08. I mean it's only opinion but I agree with Philliesfan377 - it's just the video.

  • what are you stupid

    its the god dang video you dumbfuck

  • i want this game but i'm belgian and it's not available here:s i got the demo from us server but that's it

  • Order it. That's if you have the money.

  • Order it online, tho keep inmind your region etc.

  • Comment removed

  • how do u create teams?please tell me!

  • Dumbass can't you hear they are minor league teams

  • lol ur playing with the pirates the only good person they had was bay but is a good man now he is a red sox

  • MLB 09 the Show wipes its ass with MLB 2K9

  • totally dude but i have a wii so all i can get is mlb 2k9

  • 2k9 on wii...dat shit must suck...i have it for xbox

  • can you create your own players in this game?

  • yes

  • i personally think 09 is better than 2k9 because 09 is focused on the ps systems 2k9 is focused on every system and had 2 make it for every system

  • have played both games and 2k9 is not even in the same planet as the show!!! it is insane how much better the show is then 2k9! 2k sports needs to just give the hell up with their rocky unrealistic game play and their players and fans that look more like aliens then people! if you like cartoon graphics and a bug infested crappy game go with 2k if you like a realistic great game that makes you think your in the ball park every time then go with the show!

  • i have mlb 09 the show and it is awesome

  • fuck 2k9

  • whats better this game or MLB 2k9

  • 09 by faaar

  • the recording occurred over the years of the game being around

  • Great video. I'm a huge baseball fan but since I only own a 360, I'm forced fed MLB 2K9. I previously owned a PS2 and had alot of fun playing the Show and now I can see it's even better these days. IMO, it'd be worth buying a PS3 just to experience this game.

  • lol ur right u do stink

  • at 5:04 was that swisher pitching????
