Re: The greatest video game ever

The Show and NBA 2K are the only video games I play anymore, this years iteration of the show is probably one of the best gameplay sports titles I’ve ever played no question…… if the graphics and FPS get a little more next gen for 22 it’s gonna be unbelievable

Re: The greatest video game ever

I skipped right past any post denying and/or then taking over the the tread with their opinion.

Cryuff, I so love the enthusiasm. What entertainment you got and I would like to calculate the cost per hour you received playing an entire 162 (an achievement I have yet to reach). Go to a movie, go to a game, etc. and poof it's over yet you spend almost the amount you spent on a copy of the game. MLBTS 'insert year gobbles up so much of my discretionary time but then leads to research, youtube videos, and books on baseball.

Dare I say MLB The Show is becoming iconic!

That is awesome. I thought I was the only one putting in all 162. I'm still on MLB The Show 16, but when I finally finish, I'll be updating!

I am a huge sports fan and this is the first year that I’ve played MLB the Show and I agree with the OP! I love how there are many different outcomes to games and situations… just like in real life baseball. Excellent video game! FYI, I play on All star with default sliders.

Bingo!!! The amount of hours I have logged playing MLB the Show for the past decade and half is probably the greatest return on investment in entertainment I have ever made. Bar none.

And it is still going......GOAT sports game.

I actually figured this out with '18 and it came out to a little over $0.03 an hour!! '18 is my only platinum and I about my favorite of the series.

I revisited 18 and I agree....one of the very best in the series (warts and all). Love the three themes, the color palate....all of it. Still wish they kept the daily recap screen and franchise hub from MLB 17 (LOL a bone of contention for me...Phases in hindsight was kinda meh). But a fine game!!!

Yeah I am not a fan of phases. 18 just hit all of my buttons. I have actually thought about going back to it since I am not moving forward at the moment. I even thought about going all the way back to 14 and playing thru each just for the history books. LOL
