And I did want to make sure that the people I quoted first knew I wasn't trying to jump down their throats. We can all be friends. 
Does this mean outfielders can now collide while pursuing fly balls and potentially get hurt? That'd be a nice thing to see!
An even cooler thing with collision awareness: Two outfielders are pursuing a pop up, they both are aware they are near each other and both shy away at the last second with the ball dropping in for a hit! Now THAT would be neat to see.

The one thing I've really hoped for, for years now is a playoff mode. It would be nice at the end of the year to either place whatever teams you like into the playoffs or, you could follow the mlb and place those teams that are actually in the playoffs. Now I'm hoping that this year this has made it in there. But what they have listed seems amazing.
The pulsating X pitching sounds like it might be similar to PYS pitching, if i'm understanding it correctly.

stunned he didn't mention anything about the presentation or commentary or the game having a new overall look in terms of menus/franchise mode interface.
those are the things that wil get me to pick it up.
all 3 need to be improved for me.
so far it looks like two have been touched upon.
i don't think i can dive into that franchise mode with the menus as is, and without any sort of headline or news section.
i feel like i am playing in a vacuum.

Ok, I'm excited.

That's what I got from reading the article as well. The more options... well, you know the rest.
I think I'm in love... like seriously, I already loved MLB 11, but there were a few things I thought could have used improvements, so far every single one of those things seems to be addressed in MLB 12. Zone Analog? Hit Variety? New Fielding animations? It's not even fair to other video game companies that aren't staffed with mind readers.
Yessssssssss
I'm so pumped for this game right now.
The Move features sounds interesting but I don't plan on purchasing the Move just for this game. And witht the Vita, once I see some screenshots to see what the game looks like on that screen and that might determine if I purchase the Vita or not. Because I think it's pretty cool that I could play my RTTS while sitting in Study Hall or during my Lunch period. And then coming home to play my franchise on the big screen. Sounds like a good system, but that all depends on how the game looks and plays.
The Pulse Pitching sounds good but I'm a big fan of the Analog Pitching because I'm pretty good at it so I think I'll give Pulse a shot but at the end of the day, I'll be back using the stick. This Zone Analog Batting sounds so hard! I couldn't even push the stick up to the left/right to hit the inside/outside pitch. I don't know how I'm going to be able to point the left stick to the left and the right stick up.
The Collision Awareness sounds amazing. It always bothered me when I see these poorly done animations on Double Play and plays at the plate. But now, I am anxious to see what outfield collisions and double play take out slides are going to look like.

No, they will get out of the way so they don't collide with each other

So we should not see any players going though each other anymore like they are ghost?
None of the previews have talked about the Presentation And Commentary yet.
And I have a feeling thats because Sony wants to save the best for last.
Presentation And Commentary new features and improvments!!
But man I am loving everything else that has been talked about so far!

the pulse pitching does sound intriguing as does the new free agent signing thing.
hope its not the ebay style bidding thing.
never got into the analog pitching as i didn't get 11 but if 12 hops aboard my ps3, I might skip that all together and go pulse.
