Anyone picking up the PS2 version of MLB 06: The Show? I wasn't crazy about last year's game and am really satisfied with MVP 06, but there's a small part of me that wants to buy MLB 06: The Show. If it gets good reviews, I may not be able to help myself .

I'm interested, but I'm definitely going to wait for thoughts from some of the release-day buyers.

This thread at OS has almost guaranteed that I won't buy the game: http://forums.operationsports.com/vBulletin/showthread.php?t =159206

I hate the fact that the batting style is directly tied to the diffuculty level you play on. I want to be able to use zone hitting on any level (especially Rookie ).

Sorry guys, I played three games the night I got it and posted some thoughts to DSP, but I've been swamped with work and previous engagements ever since.  Hopefully I'll get some more time with it this weekend, as there's a lot to like (and a little to be nervous about)!

MLB 06 The Show is a very good game. I wouldn't say it's better then NCAA Baseball. The graphics are tremendous, but the gameplay isn't as challenging as EA's game. The announcers are very good, but newbie Rex Hudler brings nothing to the commentary. For $39.99, I say it's a good buy...

Welcome to the forum,  BBatts.

What do you think of the hitting model compared to EA?  And is the pitching harder or easier to throw strikes than EA?

Thanks for the impressions.
