This game looks awesome!!!!!!!!! Carpenter's windup/follow through looks sooooo good. A lot more realistic. Berkman's stance, practice swing, swing and follow through are all spot on! Ball physics do look much improved. Man. This IS gonna be a long 2 weeks. Superb job guys! I'll probably watch these oh, maybe another 500 times before the game comes out lol.

In this video:
Beltran is #15
Furcal is #3

In real life:
Furcal will be #15
Beltran will most likely be #3 based on spring training photos...

But not a big deal, we'll probably be able to change #'s... right??

And this video blew me away considering the teams featured in it... it just so happens I will be attending not one but TWO Cards vs Cubs games in STL this year, April 14 (WS Ring Ceremony game) and July 22... YAY!

I'm loving the new hitting camera.

I suppose you're right about the commentary. I was hoping for a lot more bantering back and forth about a specific player, a story of some sort, a specific baseball rule, etc. Or maybe I'm just tired of Matt V. I don't even think he announces games anymore. Isn't he solely on MLB TV?

Additionally, I just don't think a three man booth in baseball works, except for in the World Series. I think I'd be more fine with Matt and Karros. I know you can turn Dave off and all, but at the very least then give Karros a lot more lines of commentary.

Oooh well. Besides that, the game looks and sounds fantastic.

He still broadcasts games dude, he did a Tigers one last season when Inge hit the walk off I think. But I'm pretty sure Russel said that they added commentary where they will talk about how that person did this season so far, last week, last night,etc. Or I was dreaming.

That homerun from Delmon Young was nice and subdued. Refreshing to see.

If commentary is the only complaint, it just shows how great this game really is. It actually looks like you're watching a real game of baseball. The camera angles, overlays, etc. are perfect, and that's where the "true broadcast" really shines.
