Very true. People are never happy and will always find something to complain about.

Man, I think the screens look great..

Due to 2k's track record on the PS3, I can't get excited until I play the retail game for myself as I only have a PS3. I'll be watching the 360 screens/videos hoping it plays/looks the same on the PS3.

But as a fan of the sport, I hope this game is great for all those who have (or only have) a 360. No fan of the sport should go without a good console baseball game to play.

lol...I find it funny that a group of people (not saying everyone...but I recognize some names) clamoring for screenshots get a couple, and now are saying things like "graphics mean nothing."

Let's get this out of the way. Graphics DO mean something. If they didn't people wouldn't have b*tched about the graphical drop off last year. It's accurate to say they mean significantly less than gameplay (and I buy the statement that they mean nothing if gameplay is terrible).

Anyway, with that small gripe out of the way...they looked good. I was actually more impressed with the life in the bullpen and dugout areas than the focal point of the screenshot (I now expect the players to look good...and Timmy did).

For me, and I've been saying this for awhile now, I withold real judgement on the visuals until I see this game in motion. Last years early screens looked pretty good too, as I recall. Obviously, we won't know anything about gameplay until we play it ourselves (I mean, at this point I'm not taking anyone elses word for it...lol).

It's good they finally have something out there for people to overreact to though...lol. Hopefully the info will start flowing now.

Agreed Art, by far the the biggest complaints last year were the two you mentioned. The secondary complaints such as the lack of base stealing, hit variety, etc..etc came in a distant 3rd, 4th, 5th for most people.

i think i wasnt clear...
but i actually dont mean the proportions, i was thinking mostly of how the clothes and such look...
just dont look like real clothes imo...

btw, im not comparing with the other game...i hate comparations..

Preach on!....It's unbelievable.

Looks good. While I won't say 100% better than last year(I didn't think it looked all terrible to begin with...just certain things...definitely a step back from 2K7).....it's much better from the looks of it.
A couple of more screens and a vid and things will get rolling.

Unless those crowds are heavily Photoshopped, they look amazing.
