Yeah, David Ortiz does the helicopter animation when hitting a homerun but I believe there was a thread this past summer asking for signature swings. I think a few of the devs chimed in and basically said how impossible it is to create a signature swing for individual players but it was mentioned that they'd be able to create signature swing "finish" for individual players. I guess a signature swing "finish" would be for any swing and not just for homeruns (one handed finish, two handed high finish, etc). At least that's my understanding of it.

Just some of the little things that might not deserve that type of attention, but are important to the overall package none the less. The devil is in the details, for instance we have an entirely new tag animation system this year. That creates more dynamic and organic player iteration on the base paths and at the plate this year. Not a back of the box feature, but a pretty big addition none the less. We are showing the game to press for the FIRST time this week in NYC. So in the next week or so you will get to read about what we have been working diligently on for the past year. This years title has a combination of over 70 new features, enhancements, artificial intelligence improvements/re-writes, and additions. So hold your horses there will be plenty of content to rejoice or complain about soon enough :-). Anyway back on topic, returning umpires this year from previous versions of The Show are.

Your Avatar...I love it. Is the sunglasses on the hat another easter egg?
