You guys do a fantastic job, and the animations on the PS3 look about as good as they possibly could. But now that we're on a new system I'm just excited about what type of stuff you guys could do next year, and the years after that, because you guys are the best in the biz

Sounds like unrealistic expectations to me.

To me the crowd the dirt the grass the lighting all of it looks good I jus want diff player models diff movemeants from the players themselves cause when they do change them this game will look feel and play totally diff jus my two cents ;-)

So it seems like they spent all this time on grass but didn't spend much time on grass cuts in the stadiums. I see TF again has that terrible cross pattern that I have no idea why it's there anymore. It's been over 3 years Show guys. They DON'T use that grass pattern and NEVER have lol. If they didn't have a pattern that stuck out so much it might not be a big deal.

Pretty much been that way since stadium launched or in a close variation. And for the love of god up the saturation on your dang grass man. We don't live in an arctic wasteland in Minnesota. That grass is as green as can be at night and simply glows under the lights.

That also reminds I certainly hope they have the stripe on their grey pants at this point or I will be jumping off a cliff or two.

I don't mind when things are missing for a year or two but 3 or 4 years. Yeah that becomes a problem that prevents me from paying full price at some point. These are very noticeable details in a stadium in real life.

Nope, you are not the only one. They still haven't got the green of the grass down lol. Not even close. In some games it looks really pale still where in real life the stuff is like neon green healthy hehe. It really takes me out sometimes after playing The Show and then going to a stadium like Target Field where the grass is glowing green at night.

They really need to pay attention to colors and grass cuts for 15. And I mean seriously should be a top priority if they spent all this time on grass. Of course I want to see everything on my screen before I make final judgements. I won't be too disappointed as it looks good from here and much better than before.

Honestly tho I don't get why someone doing stadiums can't at least TRY to get a decent resemblance going. It does make the stadium look a little hokey when it's that off. No one wants perfection here. I don't care what it looks like as far as perfection is concerned. I just want a grass cut that even half resembles the real thing.

My khronikos, how you've zealed!

I'm hoping for some of that stuff next year. I expect only a few things to go right so far. I didn't buy The Show on PS3 until '09. These things happen when you start on the next generation of systems.

Yes. As the first year on a new console, it was always gonna be. ANYONE who was expecting different was being foolish. Think of the progress on PS3 from 07 to 08. WOW. NOW think of the progress from 08 to 13.... WOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!!!!! NOW, think how pretty it is year 1 on PS4, to how it'll be in a couple years.. yeah......WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!

As someone who is coming from what, 6 or 7 years of MLB 2K, it is hard for me to comprehend any of your criticisms.

The game is EASILY a system seller (case in point here), and by far the best looking thing I've seen for the PS4.

I think it's imperative that we all not forget, that this is a GAME. It's not EVER going to be PERFECT. It won't be perfect on PS4, and it won't be perfect on PS10 either.

Fantastic job Russell, et al
