It's more than just a subtle difference when you add everything up. And it's year one on a new generation of console. To me that's pretty darn impressive.

Not really. I'm just saying I'm not blown away by the stadiums. That's all. End of story. In hindsight I should have considered that everyone was experiencing this euphoria and that any negative comment would result it my getting hammered by multiple people. Even though my comment really wasn't negative at all. It's funny though because there are so many other posts that say, "not impressed with the models," or, "the heads are too big," etc. and those posts aren't getting flamed like crazy. But whatever, I'll just not say anything else about it. Anyone else, especially HustlinOwl can have the last word. Nothing more from me.

The one animation that has always bugged me: When the 2B fields a groundball and he gets his glove on it he just kind of stumbles but he never throws it to 1B even though at times he looks like he has plenty of time..I hate that play

some things are looking amazing, others are still lacking. the show on ps4 is still a work in progress in my opinion

I can't remember who asked about the socks in the grass at Fenway, but from the shots I've seen it appears that they are NOT there!

I read a preview on IGN and they said the game looked and played epicly! That the wait is well worth it! http://m.ign.com/articles/2014/04/08...od-as-it-plays

I stand corrected. Damn.

I think they even stole animations from MLB2k! McCutchen made a diving catch (I've seen that exact animation on the 2K game!) I'm being very sarcastic here for a reason. I'm sorry but the animation argument isn't a legitimate one, or a very weak one at best. There are only so many ways to hit, pitch, and field. Everyone has their own little nuance to doing it, but those are only noticeable to those specifically looking for it. Are there times when the criticism is warranted? Absolutely. However, the general statements after every video saying the PS4 is like the PS3 because of the animations is overplayed. It's baseball, you cannot change that. They can continue to add new animations, but they typically don't remove many so you will continue to see the same ones every year. Variety may be key, but you cannot have that takeaway from a 2 second clip of an animation. I'm okay with the stadium complaints. Those can be passed along to appropriate person at the studio to try to get into the game. I don't think it's a purchase killer if they use white font instead of yellow, but letting them know so they can fix it is needed. When you're so close to a project, you naturally overlook little details like that.

You clearly don't understand the complaints about the animations. It's not about variety, it's about making them move like actual humans do in real life. We don't want more animations, we want better animations. And just better player locomotion in general. And I realize that it wasn't possible in the first year on the new system, so it's just something I'm hoping for next year. The job they did on the stadiums and lighting is incredible, now I hope they prioritize the animations and player movement next year and do as good of a job on that as they did on this.
