MLB 09 The Show is the first baseball game cover for Pedroia, who joins teammate and previous MLB cover athlete David Ortiz as the second Red Sox player to represent the franchise. Pedroia joins an elite cast of MLB cover athletes and spokespersons including Angels outfielder Vladimir Guerrero, New York Mets third baseman David Wright, Oakland A’s third baseman Eric Chavez, Toronto Blue Jays third baseman Troy Glaus, New York Mets outfielder Shawn Green, and Cincinnati Reds outfielder Adam Dunn.
As Pedroia continues to establish himself as one of the most talented individuals to play the game, MLB 09 The Show is also building upon an already stellar reputation for authenticity and unparalleled playing experience. With several new key features and enhancements to the critically acclaimed title, MLB 09 The Show is poised to continue the franchise’s reign as the premier MLB licensed game on any platform.
“Road to The Show” mode returns with interactive training, new-settings, a new steal/lead-off system, presentations, and coach interaction. “Franchise Mode” also returns to the game, with the long anticipated 40-man roster, Salary Arbitration, Waiver Transactions and September call-ups. The widely-popular, online gameplay will continue to be a fan favorite, as both traditional “Online” and “Online Season Leagues” will allow users to hold a fully functional draft and utilize a “Flex Schedule,” allowing users to play games ahead in the schedule.
MLB 09 The Show has added new details and subtleties, such as wear and tear on the field, dusk to night lighting transitions, JumboTron animations, an ultra-realistic crowd atmosphere, and different grips and arm angles from pitchers. Adding a more personal touch to the game, MLB 09 The Show for PS3 and PSP, features custom music and fan yells and chants, thus bringing long-standing rivalries to life.
The independent Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) rating for MLB 09 The Show is “RP” for “Rating Pending.”
