Re: How old are you, MLB the Show fan?

I'll be 38 in month. The first baseball game I ever played was RealSportsBaseball on the Atari 7800. That Atari with my grandpa is what got me hooked on video games from age 5. The game of choice and 99% of the time however was Ms. Pacman, which is still my favorite game of all time for nostalgic reasons. And it's still such a great challenging game that tests reflexes and hand eye coordination. Along with learning patterns.

I was siked to get the original NES for Christmas. And Playstation One for Christmas when it was brand new. Been with Playstation ever since. No ps5 yet, and will wait a few years anyway when price lowers.

Been playing MLBTS since 2012. I played it on ps3, I think it was 08. But only a few times and never owned it so can't say I really played it. But from what I hear it was a great game for it's time.

I'm 31 and The Show '20 was my first ever baseball game.

I'm from the UK so didn't grow up with American sports. Both The Show and Madden have been great tools for learning about baseball and football for me.

41 and from the great state of Maine!

First game I remember playing was Little League Baseball on NES. Saul on New York was my dude.

Only games I really miss is MVP. It had most things that I think the show is lacking.

And I'll hopefully be playing til I die!

I am 32 and been playing baseball games since rbi baseball on NES. Also I have played MLB the show on all 4 generations of Playstation (ps2, ps3, ps4, and ps5). It is absolutely amazing how far it has come.

Re: How old are you, MLB the Show fan?

I'm 30. My first taste of The Show was 06 on the PSP. Before that I was playing all kinds of baseball games. Triple Play, All Star Baseball, High Heat, Slugfest, VR Baseball, Big Hurt Baseball, etc. I made the fulltime jump to PS3/The Show after how unplayable MLB 2K9 was and never looked back. It's by far my favorite sports gaming franchise.

The Show 21 might be the only game I've ever owned that brings three different generations together, huddled around a TV. My dad (68), nephew (10), and I have a franchise going. I created the uniforms, stadium and handle the pitching. They do the hitting. It's the most fun I've had in a long time. I can't wait to see what the future holds for this incredible franchise and its wonderful developers.

36, my fav game as a kid was MVP baseball and I loved the college baseball version they had…… was always a Nintendo and Xbox guy so played the show for the first time probably in 06/07 and was in love…… only play 2/3 video games and they’re strictly sim sports games as I play because of the connection with the sport as I’ve grown older and don’t play anymore
