MLB 14 The Show PS4 Gameplay Videos (IGN)

The shot of the Twins batter (with the dugout behind him) really shows how the improved lighting has helped night games. It's dang near photo-realistic. And that's on this crappy YouTube video.

And that's the scarry part... Wait until we pop this game in our HD tv!

It makes me down right giddy when you realise this will look even better in motion on your HDTV then it does on internet videos/screens.

HAHA I knew the show would be my breaking point so I figured why wait, got one at launch, lots of other games this year anyway like destiny, NHL, Dragon Age, The order, Drive club, Watch dogs, Alien isolation etc.....

The set-up animations are new, sadly its not that big of a difference from past games and every catcher sets up the same...every pitch. It looks a bit more natural, but catchers still don't set-up for dirt pithes, high fastballs, or frame pitches. I'm not sure where all the 150 animations are, but some are definitely related to the catcher setting up. It is a shame that they are so consistently identical. Even if every catcher mixed up his setup animations it would look a lot better.

In regards to the videos...it looks like they still have the body size issue that the PS3 had on some players...i.e. Byrd.

The video was pretty choppy, but I'll assume that it was due to IGN's capturing of the game. The devs have said they are targeting 60 fps and I expect that in the final game, anything less will be a huge let down.

Edit: looks like the footage here is just the same b-roll that SCEA provided. The preview video from OS has the same footage, just not as choppy (maybe just a bit choppy in a few spots). So whatever IGN did with the videos, they look bad. I downloaded the video off youtube at they still looked bad.

I'm only speaking to the quality of whatever IGN did to the footage they were provided.
