How long have you been playing Sony's MLB series?

Re: How long have you been playing Sony's MLB series?

Believe it or not when The Show first came out a buddy of mine said it was like The Bigs. Same idea he said which was terrible.

So I skipped it in favor of 2K.

I decided to rent '10 from Gamefly and bought it within an hour of playing it.

So sadly only since '10 but will never turn back now.

Are you still friends with this guy? If so, you should punch him in the face. If not, you should search him out, find him, and punch him in the face.

My first MLB game was MLB 2000. The one with Mo Vaughn on the cover.

Since then, I have only missed MLB 2001 (Chipper Jones) and MLB 2006 (Vladimir Guerrero).

I played MLB 98 on the PS1, and I've pretty much stuck with it since then with the exception of a few years in the early 00s.

Since the last 2 from 989.
I posted here about the last one and was told "stay far from it!"
I only posted as I felt the last one was pretty good.
The rest is history.

Since MLB 09. Played 2K7, then skipped baseball in 08. Played every game of an O's franchise and been a Show fan ever since.

Re: How long have you been playing Sony's MLB series?

I played a few of the games on the PSOne back in the day at a friends' house, but the first game I owned was MLB 08 for the PSP.

Because of this game, I've bought a PSP, PS3 and now a Vita in the past 4 years

MLB 08 (PSP)
MLB 09 (PSP) (PS2)
MLB 10 (PS3) (PSP)
MLB 11 (PS3)
MLB 12 (PS3) (Vita)

I used to play the 989 games from 98-2000 for PS1. Then went to Triple Play for a year, All-Star Baseball 02-03, MVP from 04-05. I got back to MLB 06 after 2K got the third-party license, but settled for 2K with my 360 for 07-08. Finally got back to MLB in 09 and have been loving it ever since.

Re: How long have you been playing Sony's MLB series?

I have bought it every year since 2006 to now, with the exception of 07. I didn't have a PS3 then and 06 for PS2 held me over until I bought 08 for PS3

Re: How long have you been playing Sony's MLB series?

I bought mlb 2k9. It sucked. So. I sold my 360 just to buy a PS3 and the show. So, mlb 09 was my first.

Re: How long have you been playing Sony's MLB series?

Played my first game of The Show in 08, on my buddies PS3, I was, maybe still am primary a PC gamer, but the next year I got a PS3 and The Show 09 on release day.

Before that I played MVP on the PC and I want to say Triple Play before that. I can also recall playing a baseball game on the PSX for a couple of years, maybe MLB? I think 05 was the last year I played MVP, and I drifted out of baseball games for awhile, but I longed to play a really good baseball simulation and I got addicted to the show in 1 game, but it took me a year to break down and grab a PS3.

Re: How long have you been playing Sony's MLB series?

Back in 2009 I was searching ebay looking for an old copy of NHL 2K to tryout and noticed one guy was selling NHL 2K7 and MLB 07 for £5. At that time I had barely watched any real baseball so MLB 07 stayed in a drawer for a month or so before I got round to trying it.

Baring in mind I knew very little about the sport I had no expectations when I loaded the game but I was instantly drawn in and loved playing it so much that NHL 2K (aswell as my other games) were discarded while I kept going back to The Show. From there I picked up 09 and have purchased every version since including 12.

What I really credit The Show for is turning me into a Baseball fan to the point where I would spend hours and hours of my free time reading about the history of the game and learning about anything I didn't understand (which was a lot!). I've even been a subscriber to MLB.tv for the past two years and it's all down to The Show, truly the best sports video game i've ever played.

Re: How long have you been playing Sony's MLB series?

I started playing this game with MLB 11, which is why I bought a PS3.
