If the ball physics were completely trashed and redone, how is that building on a foundation from previous years?

For me, the commentary needs to be more fluid between the announcers. Like they are all in the same booth when they are describing the action or commenting. The Show, for all that is awesome about the game, hasn't been able to do this imo.

Game looks good but it looks like they still haven't figured out how to fix the pitchers wearing long sleeves at night that's been going on since 07. Maybe there's still time to fix it

Or your username.

I think the one recipe everybody is missing when watching this videos is how the game will sound overall. Yes, you will hear similar lines of commentary... but from the new crowd audio to the sound effects of the bat and gloves interacting with the ball, the new umpire calls, etc. (maybe even new replay audio?), as Daughtry might say: I'm starting to believe that this could be the start of something good.

Sweet custom deliveries for Weaver and Holland...

That said, it might be way better than what we heard in this thread. then it might be only different in the way its presented in franchise. I can imagine online or play now people being upset if it still sounds like all three guys are in different time zones. I do think calling a grounder to second can't be much different after 199 times, but I agree, it wouldn't hurt to change the darn script. Its not that good. is it the words given, or the talent. I have seen goood announcers, come off poorly in video games, [gus johnson anyone?}. I think the negativity shines when its the same announcers. Lots of peeps are just sick of Dave and matt. Would it matter if it was Al Leiter reading the same line? I dont know. I think these guys signed a longer contract than A-Rod! WTH! lol Why would sony sign long term contracts to announcer for a video game? Unless there's other reasons why we r stuck with them. :0

for someone skipping 12, you sure do post a lot in here

All the videos we've seen so far have no unique pitching motions, so I'd say these are from an early build.
