I have The Show 07 for PS3. It's ok.

I think that in-game, it's an average baseball game. Nothing special. The other things like franchise and career mode have some problems with generating realistic simulations.

It's been a long while since I played it, but for example in career mode I created myself as a closer. After building my player up diligently over several seasons, I could never get a contract like an upper echelon closer should get. Even being almost max skills and in the mid/late 20s, I'd get contract offers like $2 million over 3 years.

Further, my player started with the Royals, and after making it to the majors finally I kept getting sent down to AAA for seemingly no reason. At the start of one season, I made 6 or 7 appearances, gave up a run or two but saved all of them, but it was back to Omaha. Conversely, I was mowing them down in Omaha and couldn't do anything to get called back up. It seemed to go away once you signed a free-agent deal, but before that it was almost random.

Hopefully they fix the career mode because it was pretty cool apart from the realism issues.
