Probably gonna be better than The Show this year..

Word is one of the lead designers of MLB 06 the Show jumped ship to the 2K team. Another issue- the Show was pushed back to April. Makes you wonder whats going on over at SCEA. Maybe they got a hold of 2K7 and freaked because they realized their game looked lastgen. NBA 07 Stunk for the PS3 and they probably dont want to repeat that fate, especially with the acclaim the PS2 versions have gotten in past years.

As for MLB2K7, the graphics are amazing- especially the windups by the pitcher. Some have complained of "slowdown" but I havent noticed that- I think the stadium "shakes" a bit on occasion with multiple players on base, but thats more realistic of the atmosphere and how the pitcher would feel anyway.

It may take you a bit of time to get a hang of the controls, but when you do, I dare say you'll be in love. The fielding in particular takes a bit of time to getting used to.

In any event, I believe its better to get the PS3 version and really "swing" with your sixaxis than the old school way of doing things on the XBOX360 (although I am told the graphics may be a *tad* more polished on the XBOX version, despite the fact the console has less power).

Great Game

I've only had my PS3 for about a month now so I'm still amazed every time I turn the thing on. I still remember my Atari 2600. That said MLB 2K6 was my favorite on the PS2 so I had to give 2K7 a shot. I'm very impressed with what I see so far. The graphics are amazing, game play is solid, and the announcers are great.

I'm an old school gamer so I don't care much for franchise modes and managing what flavor sodas the concession stands will serve. I just want to pick a team and play ball. This game is great for that, not too simple and not too complicated.

Once you get used to the controls you'll have a lot of fun. I was half way through my first game before I realized it was set to sixaxis instead of classic batting. Once I got through feeling stupid the game was really fun. I will be spending a lot of time on this game. Unless you're a complete game snob who's impossible to please I don't see any reason why you wouldn't like this game. Individual batting stances, trips around the mound, game highlights, (most) faces look more like the real players, this game is very impressive. My only gripe is the multiple batting camera angles are gone, other than that so far so good.

Much better than last year.

This game is essentially a copy from last year. However they greatly improved the graphics and cleaned up the crappy fielding from last year. This is what last year's game should have been. Fun and alot of depth. The online roster updates make the game current instead of feeling dated the day you buy the game. I like it and would suggest it to any baseball fan.

Go Get It!

I was debating if I should get MLB2k7 or the Show, but once I saw that the show wasn't going to be available until April, I couldn't wait to compare the two.

The controls do take some time to get used to, but once you get the hang of it, you will not have any problems. I am really looking forward to playing in an online league!

If I had one compliant, it is that I wish that the game had more prospects than it currently does and more control over your minor leagues.

I got this game for PlayStation 3 because it looked like a good game. So the first time I played it I said I was watching a real game and they fell for it. It has AMAZING graphics, but the controlling the players on a ground ball for instance is hard. The season mode is much better because the off the field play is MUCH better. If you're thinking of getting of a good game for PlayStation 3, WELL GET IT! It is awesome.

Great Game

I have been a MVP baseball fan for sometime now mostly on the computer with 2005. So I wasn't happy when MVP decided not to make a new one after that. Then came 2K7 this game came with my PS3 and all I can say is that it is awsome. Wireless control is great it is fun to move the controler to swing the bat, and pitching is diffcult without being impossible. The only thing I would like to see is 1080i instead of 720p and optical sound output. Other then that a great game and lots of fun.

Good Solid Game of Baseball

I bought this yesterday for the PlayStation 3, and I must say that this is a huge improvement over last year's 2K6. The immediate thing that you notice is the graphics, the stadiums look just like their real life counterparts, and characters look close to perfection. The new "Signature Styles" gives each player a unique style that no other baseball player has. The GM Mode and Dynasty Mode are very solid, but they are almost the same as last years. The price of the game though, I think it should include more. It just seems like a $60.00 game should have more than it's PS2/Xbox counterpart. MLB 07: The Show for PS2 is out, and it is a very good game of baseball. When MLB 07: The Show for PS3 comes out, then we can see which one is better. But, for now this is the only next-gen option. Very solid game of baseball all together, but I would look into the Show if you have a PS2 or PS3.

Good game, worth it over a Mid May release date of The Show

First, IGNORE all reviews that bash this game, they either haven't played it or want a game that you can dominate the first time you play it. The game takes a little time to get used to, but once you do it is great. The first two times I played I sucked, I was bad at fielding and could not hit anything. But I got used to the fielding and usually go error-free now. Batting with the motion sensor actually is a little fun when you get used to it (do a few homerun durby's to get the hang of it, like 20 of them). Pitching is the best I have ever seen in a game, graphics are great, I have seen no frame problems. Stealing is way too hard, not a simple tell the runner to go, you have to do it yourself. Baserunning takes a while to get used to. Computer makes too many great plays, like 6 a game instead of 1 or 2. Options are great, although I don't see the difference between GM mode and Franchise mode. Can customize anything you want and I mean anything, down to if the player wears 1 or 2 earrings. I played NBA 2K7 and NBA 07 the show and NBA 2K7 was a lot better, so I am thinking the same with their baseball games, plus with MLB the show not coming out until mid May now, BUY MLB 2K7. Still need create a team in baseball games and improved in basketball, nothing beats creating a team with your own logos like Madden for the PC (even though they won't put next gen. graphics in that version).

gold glovers everywhere

Maybe it's just me, but i seems like every opponent I play against has nine gold glovers out there. If they aren't jumping over the fence to rob me of homeruns, they are diving to take away base hits. Somewhere Brooks Robinson and Willie Mays are smiling at my pixel generated adversaries. Still a fun game to play though.

Fun...

This game can be a little frustrating at first, BUT once you get the hang of it, it is very fun, ecspecially when playing a season. The graphics are pretty damn good and controls seem to be enjoyable and cooperative as long as you're not using the "six axis" form of batting. Fielding is pretty fun once you get the hang of it and batting is pretty simple. Some people say this game dosn't have all the "bells and whistles" that some other baseball games have, but if you like a good classic baseball game with a just a few fun bonus's like homerun derby, trivia, air hockey, trophies and awards, and that's about it than this is the baseball game for you.
