This is better...no doubt...at least its better.

That's a good description. Their graphics kinda bug me.

It's nothing major, but the colors look "flat" and the uniforms look glued to the models in a lot of these views. Maybe the lighting will be better in the final build and in actual HD when you're playing (for example, The Show has the same uniform problem imo, but the lighting really masks it well).

Oh, and I agree with the earlier comments about the bat sounds. It seems the actual one (meaning when they cut out of the slow-mo presentation) still sounds like that bamboo.

Now if only we could see the game in real-time, actual gameplay...

That looks pretty good.lol

I can't really tell by these vids they've released. It concerns me that its not actual gameplay. On an upbeat note. Thorne and Phillips are a refreshing change!

The left sleeve of his uniform is clipping into his body though. The game looks great. I'm not dissin' the graphics at all, but like most people here, I wanna see some actual gameplay.

[bodhiball]

so, I am always very critical of both games graphics, so I asked my girlfriend for an "outsiders" opinion of the vid...


"hmm
i kinda feel like
you know how they made a lego star wars video game?
with weird little lego characters...
if that's what they were going for, i'd be impressed"



Might be a bit harsh...but I get what she is saying. One problem I know I have is that I am comparing what they do to 2k7's player models and faces. That part of that game was just SICKLY good. You would think that 2 years later it would be AT LEAST that good, or better. And they just arent.

I think the graphics will definetly look better when the game is outdoors. I notice this with games like the show as well. The daytime games look way better then the night games. I want to see in game gameplay.
