Game looks fantastic to me, and I'm pumped about the Griffey mode.

Some of y'all just have incredibly, unrealistic expectations.

I cant remember if he was or not but I really hope Vlad makes it into this next game. Vlad, Griffey and Dowd (or w/e his name is every other year) would be nasty

Dowd? As in John Dowd? Pssh, give me Reggie Stocker any day...

Like others, I'm hoping ball physics have seen some upgrades. And like others, if this trailer follows the pattern of the last couple years, the quick appearance of something slightly different sometimes hints at a change to be announced later. So those quick glimpses of those hard ground balls hooking down the lines hopefully is leading up to an announcement of even more upgrades and refinements to the ball physics.

Like Ramone implied, maybe we'll learn more when they do the rewind on the trailer?

Re: MLB The Show 17 Trailer, Retro Mode Details Revealed

looked alright to me, but nothing to make me leap and scream about either, i mean this is why i said what i did over in a madden thread, the expectations of video games is out of control now, i mean really its only been 5 years and people are already saying ps4 is old i mean what ? are you kidding me? they bring out a ps4 pro and a new xbox s, which both imo is not worth it at all, yeah new chip sets, but games are not running at a real 60 fps 4k capture, i mean its just ridiculous to me where gaming has gone.

next year xbox scorpion, you got all these virtual mask you strapping on ya head & face i mean, you got all that and its still not progressing, and i see the same thing with the show, yeah it looks good but so does 16 at least good enough for me, i'm sorry but all of these game company's are doing the same exact thing all to get that $ and i'm stopping it for myself, until i see some real innovation im done and i dont mean with sony i mean buying and supporting gaming period, i'll play what i have.

there are people ranting and raving right now about how the ps4 original model is getting the shaft over ps4 pro, because games on that system like the last guardian and final fantasy are doing 20 -25 frames per second less than the newer system, which both games are very average at best imo not to mention this no mans sky that was suppose to be the game that was be all end all game of the year....... and i'm not going to even get started on this virtual in game mess, and im not just speaking the sports genre's this pay to win crap all over is just silly...... stuff that should be coming with a game is not, and people are being very gullible to it, i have even been caught up with it myself, its just im at the point where i finally see it and im sick of it.....

look its your money, you spend it how you please, for me i'm done there have been a lot of people asking for the montreal expo's uniforms in this game, hmn promoting a retro mode? i wonder are they in the game after what 6 years of asking ? retro stadiums? smh... im on a wait and see with this game this year, and that goes for all games from now on, done pre-ordering stuff... i have not nearly seen enough to hype me through the roof like i've seen some people posting here smh..

edit..

oh and the close up cams, players dancing animations close up sliding animations those have been done in years past... these new ones just has more color added to them and the motion is faster and not slowed down... so whatever i guess... i aint buying it until i see solid foundation and so far it aint there, i can pop in sega or nintendo for a real retro experience...

Re: MLB The Show 17 Trailer, Retro Mode Details Revealed

I noticed a new hairstyle. Some crazy Simon Phoenix from Demolition Man mixed JT Marsh from Exo Squad hairstyle.

Same faces though. But that's unavoidable. Can't allow players to upload previous RTTS saves and make you rebuild their faces from scratch...

I mean, I would do that. But that probably wouldn't play out well with the hoard of perpetual complainers. I'll buy this. Play it for the long boring summer months between the NBA finals and end of NFL preseason and then trade it in for credit for NBA 2K18, same as always. Heh.

Game still looks good though.

I plan on finding a way to rip the background music for Ken Griffey Jr. Presents Major League Baseball (SNES) and putting it on loop when playing Retro Mode.

Maybe I missed it - but do we know when the rewind will drop?

No date/time has been mentioned but I went back and looked at the time difference between last years trailer and the rewind and it was about 10 days. So maybe Monday or Tuesday?
