IMO the screens look ok but nothing to go crazy about. They actually look very similar to last years game. Hopefully the videos can get me more excited.

This is upsetting. Graphics look superb as always, but these Cubs away uniforms are still not right. Is this really what the MLB Style Guide Says?

I posted this a while ago. I'll post it again:

For the Yankees or the Sox? I'm not a fan of either, but I wouldnt get to excited about the Yankees when they havent proven anything for the past 8 years.. I guess spending 200 million doesnt win championships. But anyway, good luck with them.. hope they dont disappoint.. me, I will still root for my Indians.. got Pavano today.. wooohooo. At a fraction of the price the Yanks paid for him. lol

WTF!!!???

I come in here to read more opinions on the screenshots and I read:

* one guy telling people to keep their opinions to themselves basically

* one guy wanting to slap people and knock zits off their faces

* And two guys having a pissing contest about the Yankees

WTF Happened?

Geez whiz folks.

That's why they are screenshots. The worst thing for anyone to do is form a judgement based on screenshots. It looks no different than last year, and the game looked and moved wonderfully last year. Best looking sports game? Not even close. But worthy of every peney? You betcha. This game has no competition. So let's relax.

# 31 Jgainsey @ 01/06/09 11:21 PM

The screens look good.. I just hope the lighting is improved for night games. Last year they looked so flat when compared to day games. So far the night lighting looks about the same as last year, but it's hard to tell from screens and it is pretty early.

# 32 kt-od @ 01/06/09 11:22 PM

I think the screenshots look great.

Also, looks like the catchers won't be tossing their masks this year either. Oh well.

# 33 ARMORALLL @ 01/06/09 11:22 PM

Looks like we wont see eye black or sunglasses this year.

lol @ "Geez wiz"

you're right though...I thought for a moment that I stumbled into the Madden forums...lol.

Back on topic, the positive of these screenshots is that the cloth lools much more like it's own "entity" now, so to speak. I thought overall they looked good. Didn't pay the backround to much attention because most screenshots are meant to capture the image in the foreground.

As for the Cubs unis...hopefully that's early and they got em right. I do believe many Cubbies were in here last year with their suggestions. We'll see.

# 35 zippy2212 @ 01/06/09 11:31 PM

I think they look awesome! The play at the plate it looks like the batters box has been worn down. Even if they don't do the baselines just the box that will be a huge upgrade.

Being a Cub's fan I can say Zambrano's fallow through looks almost exact.

I will say that I hope they fix the away helmets. I can deal with the bigger logo but I don't want to have to wear the old helmets again just to have the red bill. But it's early and I have the utmost faith in SCEA!!

# 36 Gary Armida @ 01/06/09 11:40 PM

Looks good to me...sign me up. Oh wait, I already signed up. March can't come soon enough.

# 37 bodhiball @ 01/06/09 11:57 PM

the screenshots are just okay....but have you guys read the detailed info on that page? A lot of what we already know, but a bit more in depth and the first mention (that I know of) of "crowd rivalries", and some serious boasting about their player signature styles....

not sure if this means games in your franchise or actual MLB games, but either way it sounds amazing...

I am goint say all of the screens looked fine. Last years title looked great to me and I am sure this year will not disappoint. Besides, I am more interested in the gameplay at this point - the graphics are already up there as far as I am concerned.
