Last year, Sony delivered their highly anticipated baseball franchise to the PS3 later than expected. The title released 45 days after Opening Day 2007, and unfortunately, it didn't impress. The game felt more like a port than a title that took advantage of the PS3's power. Seeking to reverse this problem, SCE Studios San Diego spent time revamping just about every facet of the PS3 game. The result? MLB 08: The Show could be one of the deepest sports titles that SCEA has ever made. Are you ready to go to The Show?
Backward compatibility works for many games on newer consoles, but titles such as The Simpsons: Hit and Run have been left out.
From base building to swinging willies, here are the best survival games around, which include a couple of less than obvious picks.
It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.
Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.
They're scum.
"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."
Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.
Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.
But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?
Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.
This game is looking real good!
I didn't pick up MLB 07, but I've put 08 on my "must have" list. The gameplay videos for this game look fantastic.
