MLB 09: The Show

[RedWhiteBlack]

Has anyone got a copy yet?

I had a quick look in EB and JB on the weekend but to no avail. It came out on March 3 but I think it's one of those titles that lacks popularity here and will need to be imported.

You don't seem to find baseball games around here anymore. It's a shame, they can be quite fun.

I Don't think it's being release here

Try Play Asia

The game looks phenomenal, runs at 1080p and I believe they were going for 60FPS as well(Don't quote me on that one).

I have never been a baseball fan(Personally I think it is the most boring sport ever), but one thing this game does well is the graphical prowess.

Why isn't this game being released in Australia?

Why isn't this game being released in Australia?

i guess because it would sell kind of like an afl game would over in america.....

import it if you really want it....i was thinking about it but i know i will never as i'm not a baseball fan at all haha

You can pick it up on Ebay but it looks as though you have to import it or get it from CDWOW for $120. Am thinking about it after I get sick off NCAA Football and a couple of others i have got.

Looking at over $100 even on Ebay which is why I am delaying the purchase (for the time being anyway). I have always found baseball games great fun and this is supposed to be awesome.

Try VideoGamesPlus. They are a Canadian company and, with shipping to Australia, it comes to CA$67.50 or about AU$80.

I see it's only on PS3 and PS2

MLB 2K9 is on all platforms including PC but...

according to Gamespot, The Show got 9.0 and MLB 2K9 got 4.5 ....

Any good baseball games on Xbox?

The Bigs 2 has just come out and that is some arcade type crap.

 

[melbournemartin]

Aren't all the baseball games on XBox?

 

[Lethal]

Only the Bigs and MLB 2k9 are on xbox. MLB 09 is made by Sony I beleive. The people who make the MLB 2k and the Bigs series purchased the rights to the baseball games off Major League Baseball and as such I think the only other games that can be made are if they are produced by the makers of the various systems, which is why MLB 09 only apears on the Sony systems.
The only other possibilty of there being another game on xbox is if Microsoft produced one.
Thats how I think I remember it being anyway.

MLB 2k9 isn't released in Australia or anywhere compatible with Australia IIRC

I downloaded the demo of The Bigs 2 which has only just come out by 2k sports and all of the gimmicks just sh1t me. Why can't we just get a real baseball game here.
