Also, with NHL there are only ten guys on the ice and the arenas are largely the same with slight variation. I think the graphics in NHL are woefully behind NBA, Fifa and NFL as well. Too bad.

NBA has like by far the best graphics when it comes to the 4 major sports video games this gen but I disagree about NHL. NHL guys faces look photo realistic at times. The show not so much. I also hate when people say the thing about having only so many players at one time like you said about the NHL game compared to mlb because it just sounds like a excuse to me and it didn't stop mlb from having the best graphics last gen. If the amount of players and arenas was the reason then why did that not impact the show last gen?

I made a post about this last year. I skipped several iteration of the show but bought MLB 16 because I wanted to do a side by side comparison with video game and real life starting pitchers, relievers, and closers, but unfortunately, I never got around to it. One day...

Anytime an object moves extremely fast, there should be a lot of motion blur. MLB The Show, on the other hand, chooses to capture each frame entirely too clean and that's simply not how motion works. This is one reason why Tanaka's pitch (including the majority pitchers) in MLB the Show looks as if it's in slow motion, seemingly as if it's very calculated and clinical so to speak.

Pro Yakyuu does a tremendous job replicating the art (the kinesiology) of pitching, fielding and hitting. The first time I've ever come across PYS's youtube footage, I had to do multiple takes to determine if it was real life footage or gameplay footage.

That does look awesome, yet its still too arcadey for my tastes.

I am sure when 16 came out, SDS received a lot of complaints about the Progressive Field flags being wrong, I was one of them. When 15 was released, a lot of Indians fans were upset that the renovations weren't included and fixed for 16. Please don't disappoint us again.

Another thing your video points out indirectly is the body proportions of Tanaka. When comparing the real life footage to pro yakyuu spirits his body looks correct, Tanaka has the correct torso/leg with the correct height/width. But if you were to compare The Show to either the real life footage or pro yakyuu spirits, Tanaka just looks off, as if he has the body of a boy not a man.

I've already pointed this out a while back in another post so I'll try not to repeat myself on this. I just hope they fix the body proportions in this game as it just looks off to me.

I can't wait for the day when gameplay surpasses pro baseball spirits. That game just does so much right on the gameplay side.

I definitely pointed out the flags being wrong last year in either the stadium thread or maybe on the Show website forums.

If you can't get this fixed this year can you please make sure the Indians wear red socks. I know a ton of us would really appreciate that.

No confirmation.....but based on feedback from our community I am 99.9% certain it will be back.
