Certainly possible. If not next week then I'd expect the following week we will start seeing blogs and other tid bits. By that time we'll be a month away from PS3/Vita release. I don't expect to see too much on the PS4 version for another month(might get a few things here and there, but the bulk of the info I'd expect Late March into April).

This year's title will emphasize the three announcers in a more interactive, conversational style, yet will also continue to mine the world of baseball to find intelligent, timely and compelling commentary concerning today's teams and players

I really hope this includes Matt, Eric & Steve mentioning career and prior year stats of pitchers and batters during the broadcast to give it more of an authentic feel.

The one thing I loved about listening to a 2K broadcast was the wealth of stats that the commentary team utilized during the broadcast to inform me of things that I didn't know which really gave it that broadcast feel.

Hearing things like "Adam Jones batted .325 against lefthanders last year" or "Kershaw was 7-2 against the NL West last year" really kept me entertained and wondering what stat I would hear next

I keep reading through the list and getting myself excited. I can't wait to see more details on franchise mode.

Realistic contracts... hiring and firing coaches... Can't wait. I hope they added back ticket pricing and all of that also. I enjoyed the basic business aspects of it from the older years. I also hope player progression is more realistic. Hoping the dynamic RTTS progression carries over into other modes.

So many "little" things to look forward to.

Improved CPU plate discipline comes right to mind. On 13 it is good and far better than 11 and 12 and now it will be even better. Love that.

Pitchers being able to bring up the pitch history clicking L3......HUGE! Always wanted that.

New organ assortments! Does that mean organ warm-up music is back after a one year hiatus? Mmmmm. Not that I minded the new rock music between innings.

Also wonder if the replay suite is back for post game.

New True broadcast enhancments!!!! Can't wait to see all of that.


New baserunning paradigm That will be a welcome enhancment. I can only imagnine how much better the animations and collision detection will be this time around.


Of course cross platform saving is the real monster for me. Just thinking about that get's me so fired up to start up a new Yankees franchise (30 team control of course) to carry me year after year after year....always wanted that. I typically will get 2 years in when the next game comes out.....and start over again....not anymore. Truly remarkable feature.


Again The Show is never just a roster update.....it truly enahnces itself each and every year in so many little ways.....really really can't wait for April 1st!!!

Another little thing about the UI... the tiles are dynamic, and the image zooms and crops in the background of the active tile. Also, the information on the tile is "real time" too - meaning, if you are in franchise and hover over the Stats tile, it displays stat info (league leaders, standings, etc.) in the tile without entering that tab; if that makes sense. Very nicely done.

Will there be more in-game presentation/replays on the Vita this year?

I'm starting to get the itch for more information again. It's like an addiction, really.
