MLB '12: The Show Review (PS Vita)

[RaychelSnr]

Handheld gaming has never been a viable source for sports gaming. Numerous iterations of Madden has tried and failed on many of the platforms, from the old school Gameboy to the recent 3DS. To many, sports gaming has been nonexistent on handhelds for years.

Now, everything has changed.

With the release of MLB: The Show 12 on the Playstation Vita, gamers now have a source of entertainment to take with them on road trips that closely matches a game's console counterpart. By playing almost exactly like the brother version on the PS3, The Show has exceeded the expectations it was forced to bear.

I've been waiting for this. I am rather disappointed at the lack of Sounds of the Show in Vita form, but besides that, it seems amazing. I will be picking it for sure.

This game is the reason I bought a Vita. I'm very happy with both, and am looking forward to the cross-platform Franchise play, now that I have Knight's OSFM Spring Training roster set.

I highly recommend this game for the Vita. I bought a Vita just for this game, and I'm SO happy I did. The upside is that other sports games will be coming to the system as well, I'm sure. This game is amazing though.

This version will get me through a 162 game season easily. Love the game and Vita

Own both versions, and the Vita version stacks up well. The lack of any bells and whistles when hitting a home run is disappointing, so room for improvement there but overall, a great first attempt.

Great review, only issue is I don't see home runs like you have, I'm lucky to hit one every other 3 games. So I don't see that issue at all.

Yes SCEA should have added more cut scenes and should have not removed them, next year I guess.

Bottom line the game is amazing and I'm just hoping games like Madden will be this great on the Vita.

Great Scea

Agreed. This will make it much easier to finish a full season.

i used to have a PS2 and had the show when it first came out but than switched to XBOX 360... i wish they would make the show for XBOX 360

The freezing issue is something with the Vita not the game. Like in maybe 15% of rematches in FIFA on it the game would freeze and force me to restart it but no RTTS freezes for me.
