Yeah it takes some time. But nothing more satisfying than when you finish up hearing all the correct music in each park and for each batters walk up music. The immersion is crazy.

Can't wait to join my usual league and be hooked for months..

Graphically it looks a lot like MLB 09

While I am no a big baseball fan really only watch baseball come playoff time if the giants make the playoffs. I am more of a NBA, NFL, NHL guy and with watching those sports having to work and playing the millions of other games that I play I already don't have much time to really play video games. But in the past I still got the game even though I am not a big baseball fan because I felt like the game was so good so I still had a lot of fun. How ever now I fell like the game is starting to get kind of stale and like I said I don't have a lot of time to watch games like I used to so yeah I very while may skip this year.

Wow, Three and half months away from release date and the " Debbie Downers " are out already complaining on a 50 sec video. Oh well at least it's getting closer to 16 coming out. Guess I will have to break out 15 again and play me some hardball.

I mean, at the same time I don't see what's wrong with it. Pre-alpha build or not, sometimes it just shows you that the direction they went isn't necessarily the direction you wanted. Or, some things remained unchanged.

By the way, I haven't really looked at the whole thread as one yet, but what are people complaining about? Player models, maybe?

I never complain about visuals, they're just fine for me... now when it comes to sound and pbp, that's my area!

[TripleCrown9]

Is it too late to fix stadium things?

In the game, Fenway's retired numbers are in numerical order (which they were from the late 90s to 2012).

Spoiler

But ever since the 2012 season, they've been in chronological order.

Spoiler

And to also add Pedro's number.

It's very sad that so many think that MLB The Show 16 looks like a game that came out 7 years ago on a much less powerful gaming system

But as far as Player models, Commentary, in game Animations and to some extent the TV Style Presentation goes I really can not disagree too much with how a lot people feel. But with that said MLB The Show even with it's short comings is still by far the greatest baseball video game ever created! And I have always and will continue to buy it day 1!
