Video Game Reviews of MLB 07: The Show
Customer Review: Fun,but also flawed.
Summary: 3 Stars
The time I've owned this game has been like a love/hate relationship.There are some things that separate this game from any other baseball game out there,like the Career Mode for example.Just the Career Mode alone gives this game hours and hours of replay value,and if you had a social life you can kiss it goodbye.But unfortunately,the entire experience isn't always fun.
My first problem with this game is the umpires.Whether you turn the umpire personality option on or off,they will still make some TERRIBLE calls more times than not.The strike zone never seems to be consistant,and eventually it does end up costing you a lot.
Then there is the AI.Sometimes they can be Einsteins,and sometimes they're as dumb as a rock.For example,I can strike out 15 batters and pitch a shutout one game,then the very next they can hit any pitch I throw.Literally,I can throw something completely out the strike zone and they'll hit it into the stands every time.And there are times when I'm fielding a ground ball and accidentally throw it over the first baseman's glove,and he'll just stand there.So if I don't run and get the ball I threw in a matter of time,the opposing batter can get an inside the park home run from a stupid minor error.
So while it is fun to develop your player in the career mode,the umps and AI can make it hellish as well.If Sony can fix up these problems for 08:The Show,it could be without a doubt the best baseball game ever made.
3.5/5
