Why this years game deserves a 9.0

User Rating: 9 | MLB 12: The Show PS3
Ok so let me first start by saying I've never been a major fan of baseball games because I always seemed to find them slow and boring however this year I decided to buy the show 12 and I'm glad I did.... So far I've only played Season mode and Online and I am very impressed. Previous years I found the hitting to be very difficult but this year due to them installing the new zone analog hitting plus I find the hitting to be much easier and more enjoyable. The pitching is very smooth and looks realistic especially on the single player game cameras. The graphics and ball physics are amazing and the sounds are incredible. The announcing isn't bad at all but probably could still be a slightly improved. The only thing I was disappointed about was the fact that you can't change your camera angles online (or at least I don't know how to) . I enjoy pitching from the view behind the pitcher instead of the catchers cam but for some reason online doesn't allow you to have that same single player view. All in all its still a great game that deserves better then a 7.5 and is def worth buying.
