Thank you. I love baseball, and I want to get the best most realistic and engaging game I can...or maybe both. I just would like an honest comparison.

There is room for both in my gaming and I do in fact own both. As others have said you are comparing apples and oranges. OOTP will provide you with the most statistically accurate representation of baseball. The depth of both the stats and the gameplay are not matched by any other baseball game I've played. Simply put if you're looking for a realistic statistical experience OOTP is the way to go. Also if you're looking at more the GM aspect of the game, OOTP wins again.
However, if you want a graphical representation and you don't mind some statistical anomalies The show is a great game as well. I play manager mode in the show and the games do play out reasonably realistically, but the experience is MUCH more shallow that OOTP. It satisfies my desire for graphical baseball. In fact, I sometimes rather play the show than watch the game on TV.
I hope this helps.
