With the MLB World Series starting tonight, Sony took it up on themselves to see who would win in a simulated event in their PS3 title MLB 07: The Show. Their prediction: the Rockies are going to "stomp" the Red Sox.
"The Rockies will take the first two at Fenway. The Sox respond by taking two of three in Colorado and game six at home to even up the series.
In game seven, with Fogg throwing for the Rockies and Daisuke hurling for the Sox, the Rockies pound out a 9 to 4 win."
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."
Yeah, staring at a screen for 5 hours straight is the mark of a poor attention span!
Who writes this crap???
@ DaTruth
Yes a screen that is constantly changing images so much so that each game has an epileptic seizure warning. Or in other words, optimized for an attention deficit audience.
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!
The MLB: The Show franchise exclusively on PlayStation platforms, has driven baseball simulators to the next level with the most realistic and detailed games from the sport. Today TheGamerAccess.com is glad to announce that they have one of the Senior Producers of MLB 09: The Show with them to answer some of their questions.
Well, coming from a developer which contributed to the finest sports game I've ever played running 1080p native + 60 fps, I believe every word he's got to say.
Yeah....if there's anyone out there who still thinks bluray does nothing for gaming, read this interview and then sit in a corner and dwell.
"The fact that the PS3 is bluray supported is HUGE. The 25gb single layer and 50gb dual layer was one of the best things to happen to our game"
And just a reminder:
Gran Turismo 5: 1000 cars
Forza 3: 400 cars
So yeah.....bluray is a bit handy
I couldn't agree with you anymore. I would love the NFL license to expire for EA Sports and see what Sony can do with a football game on the PS3.
"if there's anyone out there who still thinks bluray does nothing for gaming"
There really isn't anyone who actually believes that damage control meme.
No one would be making such an asinine claim if this wasn't the first generation to have a console with less storage space than a previous gen.
I really didn't understand why people always talked so highly of The Show. Just thought is was another sports game, just with PS3 level graphics.
I decided to try the demo just to finally see what people were talking about. I was absolutely blown away by how good the game is. It was really quite a shock at what a good time I had. I don't play sports games and the last one I played had to be back in the Genesis days.
Even though I don't see myself playing The Show very much if I get it with the mind boggling number of other PS3 games coming out, will probably pick it up when it drops more in price just for the sake of how much it impressed me.
@ Shadow Flare
FXIII 1 blu-ray, or 4 to 5 DVD's :D
MGS4, KZ2, UnCharted 1 and 2, Heavy Rain, etc, etc. Not possible as stated on the other console.
G3TDOWN
I guess what's new is you can now add MLB 09 to your list of Dev's to talk about it. Point is, it's Dev's talking about "their" titles. Which as far as were considered. We could read it all day long. :D Makes ya proud to own such a machine.
nice interview, the game is looking great and I know there is more power on the PS3 that they can pull out.
If not THE greatest.
MLB: The Show is simply a must-have for ANY baseball fan.
This isn't opinion, it's hands-down a fact.
Sony could make an NFL franchise right now if they wanted. 2K sports has an exclusive hold on the baseball franchise rights but since The Show is not 3rd party it can be made, same with an nfl title
Professional sports have dealt with doping from track & field, to cycling, baseball, pro football, wrestling, boxing, and just about any sport you can think of. Taking that information and looking at many of athletes that have existed in the gaming world has resulted in suspicions that maybe some of these digital athletes were doping like A-Rod and the real players.
Without further ado, here are 10 game characters suspected of using "power ups" to enhance their game.
Marcus and Dom are Defiantly Injecting
All be it Each other
But them two Butch Gears are Defiantly Injecting
yeah. They do look like they are on roids.
I was laughing my ass off when i saw Mario in there
Obviously we all know thats not gonna happen... its pretty much the opposite... sox will take first 2 then rockies will tkae 2 out of 3 in there house and the first in fenway and the series ends at game 7 with the red sox coming out on top
the sox better hope they win the first two games....because the rockies are a really tough team at the mile high stadium.
rockies were on fire but that long lay off may have hurt them.
