    re: "I'm thinking about", "I'm going to", "I just bought" a PS3 for The Show

    When I saw that the PS3 went down $100, it was an instant sell for me. As soon as the new console came out, I went out and bought it along with Infamous and The Show. I haven't regretted it (don't think I ever will since the xbox sucks when we are talking about baseball games)... even though learning how to hit and reading pitches is killing me.

      I did the same thing when the 09 version was released. Wasted no time and bought PS3, definitely worth it. In fact my Xbox 360 is growing dust. I'm even considering getting rid of it as I'm tired of it freezing on me all the time. PS3 haven't frozen on me yet *knocks on wood* I should have bought ps3 instead of Xbox 360 when I did.

        I did the same last week. Traded my 360 PAL for a slim PS3 and ordered MLB 09 The Show. And I still don't believe what I see when I play the game. So polished, so many details, awesome.

          If your 360 keep freezing on you, GET PS3!! I've had 360 for like over a year, maybe a year and half and I got tired of it freezing on me! When I got PS3.. couldn't believe it haven't froze on me yet.. and it's been since March! Worth it! The rest of my games is gonna be for PS3.

            Well, since you asked, I say no. Save your money for college and get an education.

            Stay in school, kids.
            It's on me. I shook his hand too hard. It was a hard ... kind of a slap-shake.

              Well, I agree with Spanky; however, the small little dent you spend on a PS3 and a copy of the Show will actually save you money because you will spend alot of time with this game and keep you from possibly spend some money on anything else.

                    I tried to like 2k9. Tried slider changes (although i could've tried more) and kept trying to get into the game. The biggest problem for me is that the franchise mode is terrible. You might be able to work the sliders for season mode or get good online play...but for franchise mode there is nothing you could do to fix it.

                      You're not alone...i'd venture to say that more than half of the people in the MLB forum have done the same thing, myself included.

                      Come back around next February and you can see the countless number of threads people create asking if they should do the very same thing.

                        PS3 is a DVD player (obviously a Blu-Ray player), MP3 player, video player, has internet, & also The Show... great combination.

                          In theory, you'll spend less money on other endeavors. But you'll also spend less time studying, resulting in poor grades, forcing you to drop out of school, leading to a series of menial jobs at fast-food joints. You'll lose friends and self-esteem, causing deep psychological trauma, leading to an array of health issues.

                            Dang, I guess I didn't think of that. So, yeah Kid, save your money for school, get that degree. MLB the Show 14 will be awesome.

With sliders you can get a decent game and I really enjoy the analog pitching controls. However, if MLB the Show 10 has analog pitching, adjustable camera views, and weather effects, I am jumping in.
