Re: MLB 09 The Show Video: Cardinals @ Cubs (IGN)

WOW, I don't own a PS3 but watching this and the other video makes me want to purchase one just for this game. There is something about this game that is so authentic, maybe it's the stadiums and how it feels like you are really inside them, or the animations which seem so smooth, or the sounds of the crowd, the play by play, etc. What an awesome looking game..............

I will tell you want it is it bro. It is the smoothness of the game. It runs like butter. And then you put in all the little things and the graphics and you are hooked!

*wipes eyes*

Where is Eddie, and what have you done to him you heretic?

LOL! I kid of course.

In all seriousness, you would not regret it. If you watch how real the crowd is moving around, leaving their seats and scooting to the isle (yes they actually walk like you would with people in your way, and then walk normal in the open isle).

Amazing details, where the stadiums feel so alive and suck you in. And what I was trying to explain on the 2K board, where they felt cookie cutter and, yes they look better than the past, and they are move animated, but are stuck to their seats and thats that.

You would love the game. Trust me. This game last year made me a believer. Many remember me being so adamant and in huge support of 2K, but as soon as I bought this game ... it speaks for itself.

Yeah I hear you. I know I gave you some grief on the other side but man you are right about some things. It looks like a lot of fun but still very authentic. I looked at that video and I was like what the hell. I can kind of see how people are going nuts about this game. There is nothing like playing it I'm sure but the videos promote this game very well.

If you can get yourself in a store with a PS3 hooked up to a HD display, some stores like BB and Gamestop will have the game already open for the store copy. Ask them to put it in for you, and use the, "if it impresses me I will buy the PS3 and the game right now" pitch on them.

They will do it for you, and I tell you what, it would be one of the hardest things to NOT do, and that is buy the system and game on the spot. I spent 20 minutes with it at the store, walked out with the PS3, extra Dual Shock, and MLB 08. And 09 has added so much things, it is sick. Just the way the outfielders take the routes to the ball, is unprecedented (read: innovative) within itself, it is like watching a thing of art.

The only thing that would prevent you from buying it, is the lack of funds... cause if you have that cash, you will be sold.

Yeah I believe you, that's what caught my eye and I noticed a lot of the little things from those vids. Even the sounds of ball making contact with the bat sounds good. Damn I don't want to do this right now, just bought a car...........I can purchase at the base exchange and save some tax........I can't believe I'm contemplating this........

I promise you man. PROMISE, you will be enthralled in this game. It will consume you, and wont ever leave the PS3 all season long. No matter what awesome game just came out. You will be annoyed that you cant get in more than 1-2 games a day cause you have to sleep to work in the morning.

It is that damn good. You will see little things done, that you cant possibly believe made it into a sports game.

I was a doubter, but man, not anymore. These guys (SCEA) are good, damn good.

See that, you can NOT beat that. These guys just plain rock.

I would jump on that like white on rice. A developer sending you a copy if you buy a PS3... take it, and brag to boot!!!

Awesome on you Russell!

LOL, yeah I think I will check it out in the store first, I have the funds but I'm very frugal, except of course when I really really want something. The videos along with all of you guys raving about the game is really hard to resist.

I felt the EXACT same way you did. I was a LOT like you last year, so much so it is scary.

I went in the store ... played 15-20 minutes in a day game at Fenway, Beckett against the Yankees ... walked out with my hands full. No joke!!!
