Should I Get A PS5 For MLB The Show 22

Looking for honest thoughts on this, please. ... I'm an older guy with a PS4 that I purchased years ago just to play MLB The Show and I've greatly enjoyed playing the show for years now. That said, is MLB The Show 22 for the PS5 enough of an upgrade over MLB The Show 22 for the PS4 to justify purchasing a PS5? I asked the manager at a local GameStop and he says the difference in the PS5 and PS4 versions of MLB The Show 22 isn't worth purchasing a PS5 this year just to play the PS5 version. He says he thinks MLB The Show 23 for the PS5 will be a big upgrade over MLB The Show 22 for the PS5, and he says I should just wait until next year to purchase a PS5 if MLB The Show is the only game I play. ... Thanks for any honest input.

If you get the pulse 3D headset and have a decent tv/monitor then the PS5 honestly is a good investment. There probably won’t be huge differences for a few more years, but you will definitely have a lot of fun with the show and any other PS5/PS4 games.

Buy the new system strictly for this years game?... I wouldn't. Eventually you won't have a choice because they'll quit making the game for the older systems, but who knows when that'll be? Next year there might be enough disparity between the versions of the different systems to justify the purchase, but we just don't know that yet.

Re: Should I Get A PS5 For MLB The Show 22

I think it depends on your financial situation too.
Personally, the only reason I bought a PS5 was because my PS4 was acting like it was about to give up the ghost and I thought buying another PS4 when the PS5 is already out probably wasn't the best investment.

That and my income tax return arrived at the exact right time...

Personally, I'm loving The Show 22 on PS5 but I think a lot of it really depends..some people prefer the PS4 version for SOTS

Re: Should I Get A PS5 For MLB The Show 22

Personally I have a PS5 but I find myself playing the PS4 version more for the Sounds of the Show. Having played both versions, albeit both on PS5 console, I don't think there is enough disparity between the two to justify dropping $500+ on the new console.

If you're wanting a next gen experience and don't mind digital, I'd recommend the Xbox Series S (I think that the digital one)

Best Buy around me has them in stock quite often at a $300 price tag.

Re: Should I Get A PS5 For MLB The Show 22

I mean, you'll definitely get various answers on this one. But I bought a PS5 specifically for this game and the amount of hours I spend playing it all year, totally worth it.

I bought PS5 for this game. It’s nice but not necessary.
