More MLB The Show 17 Details Revealed

Retro mode is going to be awesome to play with my son. He will be 5 shortly after the game comes out. Control scheme for that should be good for him too. Regular games are too complicated for a kid that age. Looking forward to checking it out.

If Retro mode is playable online I think that would make for a very fun and unique experience... Plus I assume retro mode would probably run more smoothly online, with the simplified stuff.

I also realize that even if SCEA wants that, it probably won't happen in year 1, though.

I think Retro will be a great new mode. My only hope is that you can turn off the retro music. That was bad enough when those games were out. I don't care to relive that part again. LOL!

You gotta push them at this age, get him on zone hitting early and teach him how to properly preload his throws 😜.

hows that retro mode gonna work hitting wise? back in the day, you kinda just watched to see if the ball was cutting through the plate. for the show, it has always been having to account for high pitches and low pitches.

all i personally wanted was a cut to that stadium birdseye view right after i made contact with the ball with my bat swing.

I would love love love to see the expos unis make it into the game or at the very least a uniform editor for offline franchise purposes. That would truly complete the game for us retro roster players. Would also love to see the Indians unis from the late 80s. Retro mode is a VERY welcome addition. I can't wait to check that out.
