Forget hockey...i want to see what they can do with football, technically they could make an NFL game right?

I'm pretty sure the same 1st party conditions apply to the NFL.

Yes.

NBA 2k8.... MLB '08 :The Show

The best representation of the their sport in a video game to date.

Real Talk. If only we could get games that represented the NFL and NCAA like these games. Gotta add College Hoops to the list as well.

I couldnt have said it better. I have some minor issues related to the roster. I wish the minor league players were real with fake names, but gameplay wise the only problem i have is collision detection on the base paths.

I bought a PS3 for this game and Blue-Ray....I have NO regrets...except that I wish there were more Blue Ray movies out.

No, they can't make a licensed football game because EA owns the exclusive rights.

As for The Show....it's the best baseball game I've played to date and, although it's still early, it could be in the discussion as best sports game ever.

If you are a sports gamer then it is worth the purchase of a PS3. You won't be disappointed.

Re: MLB: The Show, Living up to the Hype?

I said it before, but its clear that everyone who had anything to do with this game, really loves baseball. I feel the same way about the NHL 08 devs, which is why I feel that game will also keep getting better and better. NCAA Football is a different story - it's like those guys never went to a college football game before. But yeah, these guys...kudos to them, they put out an incredible game, and there's no doubt that it'll be even better in years to come.

It gets my vote as best sports game ever.

BK, I have to agree. I've said it once, will say it again. This is one fine, beautiful game on HD. Plays great, great crowd, great announcing, great cut scenes. It's going to be the best baseball gaming season. Hands down the best I've ever played.

Totally agree.

Not to mention, I am totally addicted to the RTTS mode as well. MOM is awesome, and with in game saves now, just makes it all the better.

I was a die hard High Heater, this game has all the goodness of High Heat, but with all the added unbelievable presentation and graphics stuff to go along with it.

This is the game I have been waiting for, for longer than I care to say.

Re: MLB: The Show, Living up to the Hype?

What BK said. Best Baseball Videogame Ever. Exceeded the hype for me.

Re: MLB: The Show, Living up to the Hype?

It's living up to the hype for me. Heck, I would have been overjoyed to keep playing MLB '07 until they released '09!

To put it in perspective, I've had 2 friends immediately go out and buy a PS3 along with The Show after playing game exactly one-time each on Saturday night.
