Worth Spending your money on since its Different from Previous Versions

I have played every MLB the show game, and MLB 12 the show is by far the best baseball game. Many people who are not die hard MLB The show fans, say this is like the previous version, but I disagree and think there have been changes. The graphics look a lot better than before, and the different camera angles in this game give you the feel like your watching a baseball game on t.v.

The sound you hear when the bat makes contact with the ball is different. It now sounds a lot more real. The new ball physics make the game more a lot more fun. Ground balls up the middle now hit second base causing the ball to roll towards left or right field. When you hit a ball down the line, you see the ball tailing at an angle like you see in a real baseball game.

My favorite thing about this game is they changed road to the show, Instead of having to start your career by playing 2-3 seasons in the minors, you now automatically start in double A as a top prospect and a starter at whatever position you choose. This allows players to make it to the bigs quicker and actually get to play with and against current major leaguers, instead of waiting 2-3 seasons watching players retiring. This makes the game a lot more enjoyable.

Diamond Dynasty is the newest mode in the game. You start out by creating a team of your choice. You choose the name,design the logo, design the uniforms including hats. My jerseys I created look exactly like my schools. In this mode you are given a roster of 25 created players. Using those players you play against the computer or other users teams to gain money to either train the created players or buy card packs. When you buy a card pack you get a set of random cards that usually have decent MLB players who you can add to your roster and use when you play a game.

I definitely recommend this baseball game.Read full review...

Great Game, not much different but great nonetheless.

Same game as 2011. Has some new batting features and pitching features that I have not tried or tried long enough to speak about. Otherwise same game looks better and updated rosters. However, doesn't take away from the fact that it is the best baseball game out. Fun game to play. I practically like the franchise where one can manage the ballpark and team. Too much to talk about without singling out, for me anyways. Must buy for me after a year with 2011. One just needs the updated one with different music and rosters etc. By the way the music is not better than 2011 but when you play the game as often as I do one needs some different music nonetheless. But generally it is not terrible, the music.Read full review...

A great game with a small amount of flaws.

MLB 12: The Show is an absolutely phenomenal gaming experience. This game really improves its quality since last year's edition, and it has a new, black color themed menu for game parts like Road to the Show, making it look much sleeker and eye catching. I would give it a 4 out of 5, but game movements are still a little choppy, like if your tagged out you don't turn to the dugout and walk, you just stop in place for a second, turn, then walk there. Other then the movements, its a great game and will entertain for, well, until the next one comes out.Read full review...

The Best and Most Realistic Baseball game on the Market !!!

This is the most realistic baseball game there is out there!! I can't say anything bad about it, it's a little tough at first but once you get the hang of hitting and pitching you will love the game. Also, the Challenge of the Week is a great feature where you can win prizes if you finish with the highest score at the end of the week. I recommend this game to any sports fan and definitely for any baseball fans!!Read full review...

Mlb anytime!

All-Star first baseman Adrian Gonzalez is the cover of the 2012 game. Players are able to take the same big league baseball experience on the road with them, anytime, anywhere. the major improvements was the all new skeletal system for the players, along with improved light. Some tweaks to the stadiums, and over 1,000 new animations. The biggest changes are those that were made to the core of the game itself. A new mode was added called Diamond Dynasty. Sounds throughout are all new, new AI logic for any situation you can imagine, expanded bullpen management options, new art assets for OSD’s, and even better load times with an optional 5GB install. The biggest and most amazing change is the addition of True Ball Physics to the Baseball.Read full review...

Awesome game that you can get a lot of play out of :D

If you're a baseball fan and enjoy sports games, this is a very in-depth and fun game. Obviously it's not perfect, but it's by far the best baseball game I've ever played. I'm not disappointed by it in any way and enjoy it so much that I will definitely be purchasing MLB 13 The Show. It can only get better right?

It's literally almost like watching a real baseball game. Anything can happen at any moment. You really feel the pressure while pitching and the urge to make something happen when your up at bat. A++Read full review...

Good game!

I am still learning all about the game. It is pretty entertaining. It is a little tough to learn to hit, I'm still using the beginner level and at times find it hard to score runs, it could be the team I'm using isn't the best in real life. I haven't tried to use it with the move controller, but it is fine using the regular controls.Read full review...

Great Game, Very Addicting!

I am a huge fan of MLB 12 The Show! The graphics in this game are top of the line. The road to the show mode is my favorite mode of the game. It allows you to create a player and live his journey through the minor leagues and into the major leagues. I just can't put it down! This game is by far the best sports game on the market!Read full review...
