I have great respect for anyone who can actually hit well from that camera angle, because I sure as hell can't.
Despite the editing and splicing, I thought the video did a pretty nice job showing off the new lighting effects, ball physics, player models/animations, and fielding/pitching mechanics. The commentating is still as bland as MLB 10, but that sure didn't stop me from loving the game.
One thing I notice from the new analog pitching meter is that it tries to mimic the animation of the pitching delivery from windup to release. I think this does a better job at making the users feel like they're pitching, rather than twirling input for the pitch then wait for the pitcher to make the pitch (like the 2K series). Also, I find shortening of the distance to the yellow line on the meter while Carpenter was pitching out of the stretch to be a nice touch!
Definitely can't wait to test out that demo tomorrow!

Karros is horrible. Hope you can get rid of him like you could Hudler last year.

. Any way I like the pitcher release point and the outfielders see to take a little time getting to the ball. Hope we see more doubles donw the line this year.scott, you read my mind. liking the outfielders not rocketing to balls.

for fun in 10
goods and bads...
goods:
• lighting was amazing, and the Wrigley shadows looked great
• some of the batting stances looked awesome.
• ball physics great as always
• saw one new presentation camera angle
bads:
• only saw one new presentation camera angle
• some pitching motions (carpenter in particular) were bad, still the old herkey jerkey ones
• commentary...enough has been said, but somehow it sounds worse
• am I the only one thats amazed the fade to white homerun edit is still in? Why not make homeruns a big deal? Multiple angles and edits like a broadcast.
• Player models to me still seem boxy, big. but they are better.
• The video was horrible. Why put one up that doesnt show ANY of the new features really? No sunset, no rain, no strikeout pitch recap, no presentations or even the batter walkups, no batting view, etc, etc. Seemed like an odd choice since it made the game look pretty much just like '10

Curse you crappy college internet. You can build a new students center, but you won't improve the internet.
Now I have to wait until morning to watch this video.

I have to say, put me in the catagory of "not as impressed as I was hoping to be." I didnt see a ton of change from '10. Maybe the commentary was just flat. I heard some lines that can be heard in 06...still. Overall, not head over heals in love like I want to be. That is discouraging.
On the positive side I loved how Carpenter hit a batter and then they went into the HBP stat from last year. What I want to know is will there be more stuff like that, and more splits this year in Franchise mode.

mine exactly, but u said it much more eloquently than me
bad choice to show off the new game, this clip.
I think they should release a clip showing off all the new features to try to sell the game.

During the rundown (5:10 mark), the 3b never takes the ball out of his glove. It just appears in his hand to throw. Sorry for the nitpicking, but fielding is very disappointing.

Matt and Dave sound to me like they are in an arcade style game. Robotic and slow speaking. We aren't disable for good sake, talk normal, not like you're actually reading off a sheet lol
..and then Karros just sounds too professional for Matt and Dave, like Karros was meant to be. Now granted, he still basically is Rex v.2, but he sounds better and I think he will only get better as SCEA improves this area of the game in the future installments. More fluidness ad naturalness is what this ara of the game needs. Maybe even just a 2 man booth.
First real gameplay footage 3 weeks prior to release and some of you need to be talked off the ledge? Relax. Sony will release better footage showing off the new features as the release date approaches.
And many of the same people will be gushing about the demo this time tomorrow.

I mean, for some people all they need is one bad video to change their opinion... it doesnt make sense to put out any videos that don't make the game look absolutely awesome!
If anything, their going backwards. The Yankees Vs. Red Sox gameplay looked better, the Brewers Vs. Mets gameplay showed off some awesome stances. The Phillies Vs. Red Sox gameplay wasn't so great.
