MLB 12: The Show
MLB 12: The Show is a baseball sports game, the seventh in the MLB: The Show series, and part of the Major League Baseball series exclusive to the PlayStation consoles. New features include ball rotation physics, a new control feature for pitching, and the Diamond Dynasty mode which allows for creating and playing a team with players from in-game trading cards that can be exchanged with online players. The game also includes support for the PlayStation Move controller, and 3D visuals.
MLB 12: The Show received positive reviews with an average score of 87%, praised for its realistic graphics and animations, and overall improvements from previous versions.
The game was released on march 6, 2012. Over a year later, on September 15, 2013, the online servers were closed. MLB 12: The Show includes 3 online-related trophies, which are now unlockable. Therefore, the Platinum for this game has become Not Obtainable.
The newly added Diamond Dynasty mode requires online access, to which there are three trophies related to this mode: Collector, A Year In The Life, and Masterpiece. Since the online servers were closed on September 15, 2013, these three trophies can no longer be unlocked. Therefore, the Platinum trophy for MLB 12: The Show is now Not Obtainable. However, there are still 31 offline trophies that can be unlocked, so if you're still interested, then read on.
You can play and earn trophies in any order of your choosing without the need of a roadmap. Though you will be spending the majority of your time in Exhibition mode. Your ultimate goal is to unlock the Everyone's A Winner for having played a game with each of the 30 Major League teams. You can work on other trophies during this process, so be sure to check out the MLB 12 The Show trophy guide links under our Links tab to see what you need and their requirements. We specifically recommend playing in Miami until you've managed to hit the aquarium behind home plate for the Fish Off A Barrel trophy.
Once that's completed, you can head into Home Run Derby to work on their related trophies. This includes hitting 10 consecutive home runs for the Winning trophy, which is perhaps the most challenging in the game. Remember to edit the players to give them the most power. This trophy is a combination of timing and some luck.
After that, simply mop-up any remaining offline trophies you still need. Remember to check the MLB 12 The Show trophy guide links to see what you're missing and their requirements.
Unfortunately, with the servers now offline, this is as far as we can go.
