Just look at the improvements 2k, Madden and NHL have made with player models for the PS4 and XB1. Go to YouTube and look at some videos from previous MLB games and you will be surprised at how little the player models have changed. I just watched a MLB 11 video and the players look exactly the same. We should expect more from MLB, five years is an eternity in the video game world. Player models in baseball games are very large onscreen due to the batter/pitcher interaction vs the other sports game where the players are much smaller to provide a full field view of the game. Yet, MLB has decided not to improve them for over five years. Puzzling choice.

They've explained this many, many times.

Game looks very good indeed. However, I really hope 16 is the last iteration of MLBTS on PS3 so they can fully devote themselves to PS4 and harness every resources out of it.

they said as long as they continue to get people to purchase the game and still make money for them they wont stop it. so all you can do is hope people on ps3 not buy 16 then they would focus all on ps4 version.

Have they? Maybe I'm blind, but I've never seen the devs mention why we can't have new player models before.

Can't believe no one has talked about how good the top of the twins dugout looked. That was the first thing that really caught my eye. Game looking good like always !

They'd have to redo almost all of the animations.

That was my thought as well.

One new body type would need all the thousands of current in game animations created for it because that body type could technically show up at any position.
