After a productive off-season, Sony's critically acclaimed baseball sim heads into spring training in the best shape of its life thanks to a focus on more realistic presentation and physics, new and improved game modes, special PlayStation Vita controls, and cross-platform support in MLB 12: The Show. The new "TruBroadcast" feature makes a point of focusing on player reactions, the in-game commentary now includes more season-specific discussions, and a completely revamped baseball physics engine results in more realistic bounces and bloops than ever before.
MLB 12's "Franchise" mode has been tweaked to produce more plausible trade scenarios, so rebuilding teams will be more likely to acquire prospects while contenders will seek impact veterans. Draft-eligible position players now reflect traditional baseball archetypes, such as a slugging first baseman or an all-glove shortstop, while computer-generated pitchers now have more realistic pitch repertoires -- no more power pitchers who also throw baffling knuckleballs. New minor adjustments include customized "Play Now" matches and settings that remain fixed across all modes.
The biggest addition in MLB 12: The Show is the "Diamond Dynasty" mode, which allows gamers to manage their own custom online team, recruit star players, and take on other custom online teams to earn development points. Special Vita controls allow players to select pitches and navigate menus using the touch screen, or use the rear touch pad to field and pick off base runners. And gamers on the go can now cloud save their "Franchise," "Season," and "Road to the Show" data, then access it and continue playing from either their PS3 or PlayStation Vita.

Guys I'm speaking from good experience, avoid this game. I owned the PS3 version for months before I decided to add the Vita to my collection. The PS3 game is amazing in every way. So amazing in fact that I fantasy drafted an entire team and then played every single game of the season all the way to the end. Including playoffs that's like 180 games. The PS3 version sports amazing graphics, realistic crowd noise, believable gameplay and totally cool replays and tv style presentation. The graphics and player models transfer well to the Vita but that's not good enough. I found out rather quickly when I played the Vita version that the presentation and replays make the entire experience amazing. That's because the Vita game has none of that. That's right, no replays at all. You hit a single and you never get to see it again, you make an amazing diving catch and don't blink because you'll miss it. Most distasteful is no replays on Hr's. I mean, I nail a shot into the seats and I want to enjoy it. Not only can't you watch a live replay because you can't manually replay it either like in it's big brother incarnacion. As you can figure the replay commentary is lost as well. Playing the PS Vita version is like attenting a High School baseball game while the PS3 is the majors. Lastly, your trying to hit a little white ball in a small strike zone. Challenging enough on PS3 but shrink the screen on the Vita and it becomes a real eye strainer. You would think they would add extra camera angles to allow the user to zoom in but they don't. I owed it for literally 1 week and resold it on ebay at al loss.Read full review
