MLB 11 The Show First Gameplay Video: Red Sox vs. Phillies

Another little thing I noticed was after the strikeout the catcher stood up and pointed out to the infield how many outs there were...looked really good.

Rollins stance looks pretty darn good to me, I was just watching a video of him hitting and I didn't see much of anything wrong with it. So far, they are spot-on with nearly every stance from the videos.

Looks really good. I'm sure with the new controls, this game would be even better! However, I'd like to see new camera angles on replays and even on cutscenes..

Amen to that. I can't remember what game it was, it might have been MVP 2005 or MLB 2K7, but they touted that every cut scene/replay camera position would be of one that you would see in a regular stadium. So for instance, there wouldn't be any special panning or invisible on-field cameras like right in front of home plate, etc.

Authenticity is the number one most enticing thing to capture in sports games; this change would be a big boost toward that ultimate goal.

You guys got all that info from a one minute video lol. Anyway I'll answer what I can.


1. The build I brought to CES with me is current up to last week. Like every year a lot of batting/pitching stances and presentation stuff goes in the game extremely late.

2. I'm on the sticks I was striding just for show GT recorded over 10 minutes of footage I can't control what they choose to show.

3. With the addition of contact swing bunting has been moved to triangle. If you are using pure analog batting bunting is done by pressing up (not in) on the R analog stick. You influence your bunt by using the swing influence feature that has been in the game for years.

Ramone thanks for answering my question about bunting with classic controls

Looking silky smooth. Let's have some sound next time.

It would make more sense, to me anyways, instead of having up on the stick control bunts and having to influence it before the pitch to make left/right the bunt motion and completely cut out having to influence the bunt beforehand. Obviously that would mean that pushing the stick left would be a bunt left and pushing it right would be bunt right.
