I’ve been playing The Show since it’s 2009 incarnation and have been hooked since. This year’s game takes the cake with a superior hitting engine, additional new content that SDS has always been good on. Fielding is definitely something to get used to this year since it super crucial to have good fielders, overall this is one of the better versions of the game since at least 2017. Highly Recommended

One of the best sports sims available just keeps on getting better. I've already sunk many hours into this year's edition and (especially given the current circumstances and lack of real sports) I don't see that changing anytime soon. New content is regularly added and updated, so things haven't become stale about a month in. A fantastic game, and a definite "must-buy" for any sports gaming fan!

Since we don't have real mlb right now this is a huge help to get the baseball need. A few upgrades from 19 and the gameplay is incredible. All teams are updated as of this spring training and very easy to move the the game. Love the gane and already am 2 months into a season. DEFINITELY BUY THIS AND UPGRADE FROM 19 or any other earlier version.

I've been playing the show for 5 years now. The game has several options to keep you entertained (Road to the Show, Franchise, Diamond Dynasty, etc). Content is loaded but there are issues with online play. Servers are usually overwhelmed during launch that make online matches unplayable. These issues usually take about a month to get fixed. When fixed, there is usually some lag with gameplay. It's not major but still needs to be perfected.

This game is so fun. I have been playing MLB The Show since 2017 on PS4. I have to say this game is easier to play than the previous years. I highly recommend getting this game. You won’t be disappointed.

MLB the Show is still the best sports game on the market. The game play is top-notch. A must have for any baseball fan.
There have been subtle changes this year. I was excited to hear minor league rosters would be included this year. I was was a bit disappointed with the actual rosters. Some players were missing, even though I am sure they will release an update to include them later.
The lack of attention to franchise mode is upsetting. Relocation and stadium builder has been needed for years. Be careful nit to ignore what your fans want. Leave that for EA to do.

Purchased this game for my husband. The graphics are so realistic and he plays it all the time. I’ve purchased other MLB games but this is the one that he seems to enjoy the moles. I would highly recommend this game for any age, it can be very addictive. My husband plays on it for hours.

Best baseball video game. Not much has changed since 2019 mlb the show. There are still fielding glitches and missed cues that need to be fixed. This is why I gave it a four instead of a five.

Best Baseball Game You Can Get

This game has it all (which can be very overwhelming to new players), but once you get the hang of it the title is engrossing. There is so much to do and ways to play this game that you've got to find something that will keep your interest for hours on end. The graphics look great and the gameplay is smooth once you get some practice with it.

I was wanting to buy it in store but nowhere nearby had it in stock, then I saw best buy can deliver it to me in 3 days for normal shipping and I got so happy. It's a great game of course new things compared to 2019 and the case looks so awesome. I chose this one because i prefer hard copy cases would have gotten deluxe if it was hard copy.

Every year, I think The Show can’t get better. Then I play it and they somehow find a way to push the limits of what the current gen PS can do. I’m thoroughly enjoying this game. It feels very smooth, from the hitting and pitching to the presentation and graphics. Another solid year and I can’t wait to see it on the PS5!

I had purchased MLB the Show 20 back last year, but have just recently opened it up, primarily because I want all the bugs to get worked out. I must say though, that this game and the graphics are fantastic. Are there items that could be better? Sure, but overall - very well done.

This is the 3rd or 4th version I've purchased for my teenage son. He loves the realistic graphics and the ability to make/manage his own teams. I upgraded to the MVP version this year. While we had trouble accessing the extras at first, he now says they are worth the price.

MLB20 has produced yet again the best baseball simulator on the market. The engine is showing its age as graphics are very similar to past show games but it's still king of baseball. Interested in seeing how the next gen engine on the PS5 will look like.

When MLB decided to postpone the season, I decided to get a PS4 just so I can play The Show. It takes some time to learn how to play but it definitely helps me fill the void of no MLB. The gameplay isn't perfect by any means but its still a fun game to play.

I have loved the MLB the Show franchise for 6 years and this game is by the far the best yet as it should be. SDS did a great job with all aspects and modes of the game definitely recommend to any baseball fans missing the game in these tough times.
