The Skinny on PSU\'s Review:
   We like                                    


  • The new training modes for Road to the Show
  • The hot shot and bobble fielding situations
  • The lighting and precise detail of the stadiums

   We dislike                                  

  • That online play isn’t as fluid as it needs to be right now

                         
The skinny on G4TV\'s(Adam Sessler):
Good:

  • Great presentation
  • Fluid animations
  • Player models are identical to their real life counter-parts

Bad:

  • Only gripe was the lack of analog control that is found in most Sports titles today.

The skinny on PSX Extreme\'s Review:
Good:

  • Even more presentation improvements off of the stellar MLB 08
  • Improved mechanics for the in-field and out field
  • Makes use of 1080p and 60 FPS
  • Additional features of the RTTS are impressive

Bad:

  • Couldn\'t find anything ><

The skinny on IGN\'s Review:
Good:

  • Very consistent sport franchise
  • Improved changes to franchise mode
  • Deep gameplay elements

Bad:

  • Some issues with RTTS and Online play hold this back

The skinny on GameDaily\'s Review: (Very short review)
Good:

  • Praises all modes offered in MLB 09: The Show

Bad:

  • The required 5 GB install is a downer

The skinny on Game Informer\'s Review:
Good:

  • Better pitching mechanics
  • Subtle changes improve the game all around
  • Every mode out-performs MLB 2k9

Bad:

  • The menus to navigate can be tiresome
