Sony steps to the plate and stares down its competitors. A quick point into the outfield, and they deliver a deep blast on the first pitch. Over the wall, onto Waveland Ave., into McCovey Cove, over the Green Monster, MLB 08: The Show is a home run! The only way that this game is better is if they can find a way for the vendors to bring me a $7 hot dog every few minutes, so I don’t have to stop playing to eat. I can’t make it any more obvious, but I absolutely loved this game. Even if you already have either of the previous MLB: The Show releases, I strongly recommend that you upgrade to MLB 08. Sony has done an amazing job in supplying us with a next-gen baseball title for a last-gen console.
