The GameDaily One-Minute Review

Sony blasts a homerun with its latest baseball extravaganza, MLB 08: The Show. Unlike last year's game, which was a port of its PlayStation 2 cousin, MLB 08 was built from the ground up on the PlayStation 3, utilizing the system's power to create a beautiful recreation of America's pastime, full of realistic animations, detailed parks and impressive crowds. Beyond the eye candy and excellent commentary lies a stat crunching monster with loads of depth. Its career mode, Road to the Show 2.0 will keep you busy for months, while additions to offline and online modes greatly enhance the game's replay value. It's so good, you'll play it right up to next year's edition.
