MLB 12 The Show Screenshots - Your New Default Camera View and Other Tidbits

[Splitter77]

i know there was talk of this possibly getting back into the game this year...but when playing from the behind the picther camera, does the camera still cut away to fielding view as soon as contact is made with the bat?? Or is there a split second where we can see the flight of the ball off the bat??
thanks for the response.
Cant wait to play this game on my new plasma.

Sony does a good job of juggling the two, for the most part. You have the hardcore baseball heads working on the game who want things like playable Single A rosters & choice of name brand cleats, battling out for feature/idea development time with the suits who want to make sure Mom on Mulberry Lane can get into a quick 9 inning game without throwing the controller down in frustration after 3 pitches.. To sony, those voices all get the same ear.

If I could tell you the reason why you don't see name brand cleats in the game you Q$%^#%^%$&. That's all I can really say about it.

sorry, double post.

dont want to be much of a bother but did the name requests make it in the game?

I cannot believe that people are complaining about the game displaying its name throughout the game. Especially when it's nestled in the scorebar, which is a pretty perfect place to put it.

It's amazing what some consider deal breakers, but hey, to each their own.

I could care less about accessories. Sure it only adds to the game to have more options, but it still plays a damn good game of baseball.

Happy new year though. I'm sure January will be a busy and exciting month for the SCEA guys.

Don't anticipate it this year - there are already a number of complaints about the game being too hard. This would make it worse.

I'm optimistic it can be incorporated somehow, however. Not in the way that you probably want it, but still possible nonetheless.
