Sony Computer Entertainment announced that MLB '06: The Show will be available exclusively for the PS2 and PSP. Set for a Spring 2006 release and highly anticipated, MLB '06: The Show continues to build upon the critically acclaimed franchise with new and enhanced features, providing fans with the most realistic baseball videogame available to date.
MLB'06: The Show is set to unveil new core features and platform specific advancements. Across both the PlayStation 2 and PSP platforms, the all-new Rivalry Mode allows players to set up and maintain multi-game rivalries, while tracking stats for the life of the rivalry. For baseball fans seeking to master the art of pitching and batting, the innovative King of the Diamond Mode brings players a classic playground duel where a pitcher and batter from opposing teams square off in a head-to-head mini game that showcases the intensity of the duel.
To enhance the authenticity of the game and presentation, MLB '06: The Show combines authentic gameplay, cut scenes, animations, and a Progressive Broadcast, which adapts to current situations, providing an unrivaled broadcast simulation. Additionally, Rex Hudler joins Matt Vasgersian and Dave Campbell in a new Three-Man Booth for the most comprehensive, game-specific commentary heard in any baseball videogame.
MLB'06: The Show for PlayStation 2 reports to camp with the new Game Time Decisions feature, bringing more depth to Franchise and Season Modes by providing scenarios in which users will need to take full control of their team and decide which players to place in the line up at critical times. Additionally, the new 40-Man Roster feature offers the ability to take full control of a team's roster and manage all 40 players for each and every game. For a complete package of unprecedented online options, MLB'06: The Show now offers head-to-head gameplay for both King of the Diamond and Rivalry Mode to go along with 32-team tournaments, live sports tickers, downloadable rosters, instant messaging and more. Additionally, the implementation of a new online news service provides users with MLB updates on news and events from around the league or their favorite team. Returning gameplay favorites for PlayStation 2 include, Release Point Pitching, the Pitching Confidence Meter, Guess Pitch, EyeToy functionality, and Career Mode with the all-new Career Spotlight feature that underscores accomplishments and showcases them in the limelight.
MLB'06: The Show for the PSP system suits up for the season with the
all-new Career Mode for gamers to create a player and take them out to
play anytime, anywhere, and a Season Mode that now offers multiple
seasons. Users can choose their favorite team, play the regular season,
advance to the playoffs, be crowned the World Series Champion and even
create their own dynasty. With the new Historical Greats option,
nostalgic fans of America's Pastime players can go up against baseball
legends. For gamers on the go, MLB'06: The Show offers multiplayer
gameplay, either locally via Ad Hoc Mode or across the nation via
Infrastructure Mode. Additionally, sports fanatics can utilize the new
online news service to get the latest MLB news feeds online or save
