Playing MLB ‘07: The Show on PS3

So I decided to try the Playstation3 this weekend taking it home.  I went to a local Blockbuster and looked at all the games to rent, and was kinda shocked of how limited the selection was.  I have already played a fair amount of Resistance at work, and played the Motorstorm Demo a fair amount as well.  The only game I was really interested in was MLB ‘07: The Show.  I am a sucker for baseball games, and I enjoyed last years version of The Show on Playstation 2.  I got the machine setup at home and was surprised how much it weighed.  It is one hell of a paper weight.  But got the system booted and started playing some MLB.  Controls were pretty spot on and I had a pretty good time.  Wish games could go a little faster.  I wish the development team would have stolen a feature out of MVP Baseball from EA where you can simulate games but then interrupt them if you want to play.  It took a little bit to get used to the hitting system, but after a couple games I am doing alright.  Lack of rumble is kinda lame, especially pitching which was nice in World Series Baseball on Xbox 360.

So I am not really sure what else I am going to play on this Playstation 3 while I have it.  Does anyone have any recommendations?
