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.

3.0 out of 5 stars VERY RENTABL.E, April 5, 2007

First off, I am a huge fan of baseball games. I was one of those people who's heart was broken when the mvp series was discontinued so then the decision had to be made...2k series or the Show. After last year there was no question that the show was better. I recently picked up a PS3 and since the Show is not out yet for it, I decided that I would RENT MLB 2k7. Bottom line is that the graphics are brilliant. But that goes the same way for every game that has been released for PS3 at this point. These graphics, however, are ruined by gameplay that was unchanged from last year on the PS2 which was the biggest reason why i went with the Show. For example if you have anyone at the plate that has any power at all...you will have an 85% chance of hitting a home run if you make contact and are pressing up. (Chipper Jones hit 4 home runs the first game I played). The computer will rob an average of 1-2 homeruns per game as well.
A projection that I have for the Show for PS3 is this. If it looks anywhere near as good as 2k7 and plays like the Show plays, then It will be the best baseball game ever made. Keep your money in your wallet until the Show comes out April 31.

I love baseball games, so when I saw that the Show wasn't going to be released until May, I figured I would just get MLB 2k7 instead since it was already out. Initially I really liked this game, until I started a season and played about 20 games. The graphics are great but, this game is so phoney as far as stats go. I have played 28 games and Alfonso Soriano has 27 home runs. I have the batter power turned almost down to zero and my guys are still hitting everything out. If you play in a stadium where the fences are short enough to climb, you will be robbed of homeruns at least 1-2 times a game. It is a rarity to score a run without hitting a home run. During a season teams get hot when they go on a winning streak. You might as well skip these games because it is impossible to win them. Cincinatti hit 12 home runs in one game against me and won 2 games 16-5 and 18-2. Everything was going out of the park. I thought I was buying a realistic baseball game not some pumped up steroid fantasy where Ozzie Smith could make a run at Hank Aarons record.
