MLB '10: The Show - Franchise and Presentation (Gamespot)

[HustlinOwl]

Gamespot continues its week of MLB '10: The Show in this franchise and presentation article.

Quote:

"MLB 10 will have 30-player Franchise mode, which will allow an unprecedented amount of control for players in their franchise. The system required an overhaul of sorts for how profiles are handled in MLB 10, and the result looks to be a very flexible system. For example, in addition to controlling your favorite team in all its minute detail, you'll be able to set things up so you can deal with lineups and injuries for every other team in the big leagues. That way, if Derek Jeter breaks his finger midway through the Yankees campaign, you'll be able to go to the Yanks' lineup and modify its lineup to reflect this--even if the Yankees aren't your franchise team. Franchise mode will also include a fully functional waiver system in MLB 10, including additions like waiver periods, trade waivers, and more. Producers estimate they had about 90 percent of the waiver system in last year's game, but baseball fans who love to dive neck-deep into the complexities of waivers should have a field day with this stuff. The presentation in the MLB: The Show series has always been sterling, with a sharp broadcast look and the three-member announcing team of Matt Vasgersian, Dave Campbell, and Rex Hudler that continues to offer some of the best commentary in all of sports gaming. Those elements will be in full effect for MLB 10--including lots of new calls from Vasgersian and company--but it won't be the only way to watch the game in action. New for MLB 10 is the so-called real-time presentation, which dials back the metric ton of television broadcast overlays for a more natural look at the game, and there are lots of cutaways to different players on the field in between innings or between plays. For example, during a routine out at first base, I watched as the base runner made his way back to the dugout, being careful to walk around the pitching mound in the process."

That article was just a rehash of old news, I was hoping for some new details about RTP

Thanks

It sounds like the guy doesn't know what he's talking about. First of all he refers to the "Injured Reserve" twice. No such thing in baseball, thanks.

Yeah!!! Booooy!!!! "Camera cutaways are often sensitive to the context of the action on the field. For example, if your shorstop makes a bonehaded drop on a routine grounder, the presentation might cut to a replay and the to a cut away shot of the shortstop on the field."

I like the sound of that.

Gamespot isn't quite the liable source to my liking
