The Show - worth buying a PS3 for?

[jeffy777]

Yes, I bought a PS3 last year just for this game and I do not regret it whatsoever.

No question.

The Show has been responsible for me buying the following:

PSP - for MLB 08
PS3 - for MLB 10
PSVita - for MLB 12

This time next year, I may get a PS4 for MLB 14, although I'd like to get another 1-2 years out of my PS3 before making the jump, so we'll see.

Jeffy, you used to be a big poster over on the 'other game's' forum so glad to see you made the switch!

yes, absolutely. but, i don't recommend immediately getting any other games after you get the ps3 and the show '12 or '13. i've only completed 15-30% of awesome games like GOW3, Uncharted 3, Heavenly Sword...which over the past year have been collecting dust more than the ps3 unit itself...when you get your ps3, you'll understand where i'm coming from about the ps3 itself and its love for dust.

I have heard a lot about this game but never had the opportunity to give it a try. I have not played a Baseball game in about 2 years. Last one I really enjoyed was High Heat Baseball 2004 (loved it)

I did. I don't regret it.

I bought a ps3 strictly for the show and haven't regretted it for a second.

I made the switch in '09, and it has been definitely worth it. I buy probably 5 games a year -

The Show, Madden, NCAA, NHL 13, and usually something random - Ghost Recon, etc.

With that said, The Show is the only game I play all year, and it not only sold me on a PS3, it is the only reason I have a Vita for continuing my Franchise when I'm travelling.

So, if you play baseball all year, I'd say go for it, if it's just a quick fix, I'd say wait on the PS4.

You're going to get biased opinions here, but I'd have to say yes. If you're going to spend the money anyway, and if you love baseball, I can't imagine you'll get more entertainment for your buck.
