MLB 09 The Show Demo Out Tomorrow

mlb09theshow0204

I have received confirmation from SCEA that the PS3 demo for MLB 09 The Show is expected to be out tomorrow February 5th. Generally PSN updates at around 3pm PT. The demo is four innings long and features a rematch of the World Series with the Tampa Bay Rays at the Philadelphia Phillies. As mentioned in my community preview write-ups the demo is based on a month old build but it should be a fair representation of what to expect with the final product.

I’ll try to get up a few videos of the demo in the evening and point out some things that may have been fixed or improved upon in the near final build that I played last week vs what the demo offers. Also look for the second set of screenshots from the community preview event to be posted late tonight.

    Funny how every 360 whiner throws gears of war into the mix. First off gears is a great game and yes PS3 doesn't have it, but you know what. Who really cares. We have Metal Gear Solid 4, Resistance Fall of Man 2, Socom 2, and the upcoming Killzone 2, so do you really think we are missing anything. Besides this is a baseball discussion not a first/third person shooter discussion. The fact remains that Baseball is baseball and you 360 drones are going to get stuck with another Junk baseball game. There is no war to start 360 fan. You are out classed, and outgunned my MLB 09 and it will be another year of distraught 360 fan getting PWND, yet again by the brilliance of another MLB: The Show Game. But dont you worrry 2k fanboys. You always can play MLB: Front Office Manager>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>ROTFLMAO :p

    That would be b/c you are looking at a static screen shot for starters and lastly 2k cant make baseball games!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    They are a one trick pony (basketball). You have 4 options here as I see it:
    1) Go out and buy a PS3 and play the best baseball game there is
    2) Waste yet another 60$ on a piece of crap game in MLB2k9
    3) Really waste 60$ on a complete piece of crap like MLB: front office manager
    4) Just don't buy any baseball games and wallow in your own tears for another year.

    The demos are free. You have to sign in on-line at the playstation home page and get the demo from there:) They are saying it should be up by 6:00 PM EST on 2/5. But you may not download till later becuase I am sure the servers will be jammed and dependant upon your connection as well. PLAY BALL!!!

    Yeah, if want the Killzone 2 demo you have to go to GameStop and reserve it. You will get a card with a code that unlocks the demo (beta).

    I just re-purchased COD4 for the PS3 and I am kind of liking the online play as I don't have to pay for it (although Live is the sheeeet). Home still sucks, however….

    Hey Skihawks: Exactly what do you mean by catchup slightly. With the exception of exclusives PS3 and 360 games are identical so your statement is for the most part false.

    If you talk exclusives then I can name 3 exclusives that 360 cant even play:
    1) Metal Gear Solid 4
    2) Uncharted: Drakes Fortune
    3) Uncharted 2: Among Thieves

    The above mentioned games are all over 25Gigs in size which can only be handled by Bluray disc technology. So I say to you "Catching up??????" They caught up on PS3 launch day.

    The only argument 360 ever had was its user interface for online but with Ps3's firmware updates and the recent release of HOME, you cant even really argue that anymore.

    360 has plateaued my friend. They blew there proverbial wad and now its PS3s turn to demonstrate just how powerful this console is. And before I go. How's that HD DVD player working out for you?????????????????? BLUE RAY IS THE WAY.

    A buddy stopped by just as my download finished up so we ended up playing a 2 player game. I thought it felt similar(I loved 2008) but better than 2008. The presentation looked great and I thought the lighting effects were as cool as I had been reading from the guys who had a chance to check out the game last week. Thanks for all the writeups last weekend too Pasta, always appreciate your efforts. Go Huskies, Seahawks, and Mariners!

    After playing the game, which I lost to the Rays 2-1, I thought it was very well put together. There were not many drastic changes from last year, but there were many little changes that make this game so much better than 08. By the way, the signiture style and small effects such as baggy pants, batting gloves sticking out the back pocket, and even different bat colors are touches that really add to the presentation of this game. One thng that really astonshed me was how realistic the crowd looked and moved! I had 8 K's with Cole Hamels in 4 innings, and at one point the announcers showed a screen of fans putting the K signs along the stadium ledge. I thought that was pretty cool. I can not wait to play as my favorite team when this game comes out in a month!

    After playing the game, which I lost to the Rays 2-1, I thought it was very well put together. There were not many drastic changes from last year, but there were many little changes that make this game so much better than 08. By the way, the signiture style and small effects such as baggy pants, batting gloves sticking out the back pocket, and even different bat colors are touches that really add to the presentation of this game.

    PWNED by one baseball game?!? Riiiight. By the way, you list 4 FP/TP Shooters in reference to not "missing anything" in the world of video games. If you don't really care, why bother listing them?

    I own BOTH systems. As far as I am concerned, the PS3 wins hands down ONLY with MLB: The Show. It is the best baseball game I have ever played and I've been playing baseball games since the original Nintendo and RBI Baseball. Don't blow off Gears of War 2 as a so-so, run-of-the-mill game. It most definitely is not. Try playing "Horde" mode and see if you think your mentioned games even compare.

    Oh, and why is it that "BLU-RAY IS THE WAY?" Uh, because Sony paid BILLIONS to make it so. Not because it was better. I recently bought a Toshiba HD-DVD player that upscales better than anything imaginable. Ultimately, those formats are a stop-gap to digital downloads. I'm not saying it's perfect… yet, but Netflix is a very cool idea that Microsoft stuck in the 360. And FAF that you say that you can talk to you friends on your cell while playing games. I could do that 7 years ago playing Halo THE ORIGINAL on XBC. Times have changed. Xbox Live GOOD, using cell as online play communicating device BAD.

    I am absolutely sick of the fan-boy BS that plays out in forums. Its ridiculous. Open your mind and see what both sides have to offer.

    I have both systems too, and I just played the demo last night the main thing that I've noticed is the smoother framerate. The graphics are great, but that's to be expected. The framerate increase helps the realisim tremendously.

    As far as the console wars….good god haven't we gotten past that YET? Both consoles kick ass.
    The online for the ps3 isn't as good as the 360's but other then that, it's fine.

    I've seen alot of grown up ps3 people say how upset they are that they can't get GTA 4 Lost and Damned for the ps3. But they have just a bit of maturity and can deal with it.
    No caps, please.
    Ya, Sony got screwed by that, but they gave everything they had to make sure blu -ray won the format war. So they lost the first 2 DLC's from Rockstar, but hey, they gained a movie format …..that's taking off like a lead….well you know.
    They got blu-ray and that's enough, really.

    I'm very glad I have a ps3 JUST for the show. Uncharted is cool, too.
    I'm glad I have a 360 for Gears.
