Diehard GameFAN does not throw around the word "Classic" like candy and they do not give praise easily. This is the best game they have played in a generation, no exaggeration. This is the summit, not just of baseball games, or even of sports games, this is the summit of this generation of software. Truly a staggering work, a game that they will happily play until the World Series, if not longer. If you have a PlayStation 3, buy this game. If you do not, buy a PlayStation 3 and this game. Pure, hardcore gaming goodness awaits.
PlayStation LifeStyle: "A common stereotype about gamers is their short attention span. As announcements for new games and hardware come and go it is easy to lose sight of the momentous events that shaped the gaming world. This Week in PlayStation highlights Sony's rich video game heritage which dates back into the 1980's.
Step back in time with us as we put the spotlight on events big and small that have significantly altered the gaming culture."
Hard to believe only ten years ago we were just barely coming into the PlayStation 2 era...I was also only 11 years old HAH!
Direct2Drive is having a great sale on their catalog of 2K Games including BioShock, Sid Meier's Civilization IV, MLB2K9 and more for under $10.
...and you have a decent computer, there is absolutely no reason why you shouldn't take advantage of this offer.
10 bucks for one of the best games of all time that STILL looks incredible? Wow.

"If you're a die-hard, non-PS3 owning baseball fan, this is going to be your only option for the sport this year anyway. Hopefully a patch will fix the numerous issues, and if they are, you'll be getting a decent yet flawed MLB experience. With the 360 market to themselves however, MLB fans deserve better from 2K."
