Steve lyons and karros are too similar. Sometimes they don't even speak a word for long periods of time

They have a lot to get done. Commentary for me is way down the list when it comes to authenticity because what they have works.

Yeah, it is definitely a waste to start from scratch. That huge name database (including a lot of us who are lucky enough to have our names in game) would need redone, for one...and that is years in the making.

That said, I wouldn't put it that far down the list for authenticity. Commentary is a big part of what immerses a lot of people in the game. Fresh commentary (even with the same crew) can make the game as a whole seem more fresh too.

Beyond simply better interaction and variety, I hope the new hardware means that the shackles are taken off of Matt (whether they are externally imposed or self-inflicted...lol), because he is SO much more energetic and engaging a game caller in real life than in-game IMO. If we can get his better translated, I think far less people will be looking for someone new.

That is not their fault. That is the developers and the ps3 power.

I'll be honest, I have difficulty telling the other two voices apart sometimes. I'm never sure which is talking and it constantly seems like there's just a two man crew going on.

And about the flow, it seems clear they are recording the lines seperately in different booths. It's so difficult to get the convo to flow. But whatever. Often times change the presentation to mute the commentary and crank up the field and crowd and PA. Crank up some music I like and go that way.

Funny, I said the exact same thing when they first announced Lyons was replacing Campbell in the booth:

As blurry as the crowds are from the blurring effects...i can already tell they will look mind blowing

Sorry if this has already been posted int his forum, but does anyone know when Sony plans on releasing more video. To me, still shots don't really display a significant upgrade beyond texture resolution. To really see the improvements of the new lighting system, new animations, and new physics systems, you really need to see them in motion. Given that I still haven't been able to find any video beyond the few seconds of of next gen Jason Werth from last year's announcement video, I'm wondering why Sony continues to play this so close to the vest with the PS4 version.

Maybe because it's 2-3 months away? Video will be released when it's ready. There's still a ton of development going on right now.
