    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.

    Yes, it is arguably the best baseball game to ever grace a console and yes it is quite possibly the best sports simulation ever.

    Please use this as a forum to discuss all of your questions, concerns, ideas, and thoughts...

    Thank you!
    I tried to get out ahead of this one.... lol

    Anyways, THANK YOU MODS! I appreciate it as I'm sure many others do!! Would a sticky be asking too much?

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

      I am a 360 owner and have had really no baseball game for the past couple of years. I used to love the show on the ps2 but since I got a 360 it all came to an end. Anyway every year I contemplate buying a ps3 just for the show and this year I am finally going to do it. I have decided to make the purchase and now after finding that I am not alone with this decision I feel it is a good idea. I have heard nothing but good things and that the Show is def worth it. I will be a ps3 owner very soon.

        I thought I'd add to the list of people who are buying a PS3 specifically for The Show. I thought about it last year but wasn't in a position to do so financially.

        I'm waiting for a Best Buy gift card to arrive in the mail (via my credit card's reward program) so I can buy the PS3 this week. I'm then going to buy The Show on March 2 on my lunch break (hopefully), if not immediately after work.

        Long story short, I'm excited - I've heard too many good things to miss another year of this game.

          I am 46 and just purchased a PS3 about a month ago. I'm keeping my 360 and right now the PS3 is just for MLB. I buy Madden, NCAA and some other games every year and always get tired of them quickly. I've purchased MLB for the PS2 the last couple of years and finally decided to move up to PS3. I love baseball and can see myself playing MLB for many months. I have no doubt that it was a good purchase.

            I got a PS3 about a month or 2 ago in anticipation of the show. I got COD2 and Hockey and I have alot of fun with the system. Even w/o the show I'm glad I got one.

              Miceosoft must HATE the MLB 2K series because look how many ps3s it has sold singlehandedly.

                  I got my PS3 for Christmas, and the sole purpose I have the system is to play this game. I had 06 and 07 for PS2, and loved them to death until the day I traded in my PS2. I own a 360 as well, but I am a huge sports nut who loves baseball and just couldn't deal with 2K9, and I've only had 09 for about a month and change and can't stop playing it. I'm almost done with my 1st year of my METS franchise and haven't gotten this far in a baseball game franchise since MVP 2005 (which I played for several years) and I'm loving every minute of it. Now, I'm just going to wait until March 2nd and possibly begin to grow a beard once again with the amount of time I see myself playing it...

                    I didn't buy my PS3 specifically for The Show but it's one of the primary reasons for the purchase. If you are a baseball fan then it's no question a system seller and it should be.

                      I bought a ps3 a couple months ago in anticipation for this game as well. Although, I must admit, that I didn't get it just for this game (GOW3), but The Show is a must have in my mind. I haven't had a baseball game in a couple years because I dislike the only selection available on 360. Anxiously awaiting the 2nd.

                        why do mods continue to let these threads continue to clutter the boards? almost everyone in here has done this. do we all really need to create a new thread? almost as annoying as the "when does the demo come out " threads.

                          This thread was actually created by a mod who merged threads of a similar nature.

                              Here's an idea. How about you actually read the thread before bashing it.

                                I bought a PS2 for the show back in the day. When they released PS3, I bought it before ever seeing the Show, because I knew it was going to be hardcore.
