Don't know what it was for, exactly (maybe it was just the "Due Up" graphic being displayed).

Hmm, I must have missed something then. Did Nem state that it was within the trailer? If so, then you are right about the ads because I didn't see any either. Anyways, if the pic is that of a "due up" graphic, that would be a welcomed addition (was in 09 I believe).

I think I saw a new sponsor or two actually..

# 205 metsfan4life1 @ 01/25/12 03:22 PM

I rewatched the video.. There appeared to be 3-5 new ads. Fake ones, but still.

I like how players (at least in this case, the pitcher - CC Sabathia) takes his hat off in real time. I could be mistaken on this but in the past I believe they only did this in cut scenes. We saw Tim Hudson do this in one of the CES videos as well. It really adds to the TruBroadcast Presentation when you see a pitcher take his hat off and wipe the sweat off his forehead in between pitches. There were a couple other shots in this Reveal video where players emote more than I've seen in the past. It really adds to the experience and the immersion factor.

I noticed that in the Behind the Pitcher view, the speed of the pitch was added to a small info box that had the pitch selection, speed, and the fact that the indicator color of the pitch was a lot easier to see than last year.

Very cool.

Did the catchers take off their masks and sit behind home plate after home runs last year like at the end of the video?

I saw that too. That was pretty neat.

No doubt. I'm ready to play RIGHT NOW. The double plays in the trailer looked great, and I loved seeing the ball bounce off of the 3B bag.

I'm glad I have off March 6

Dugouts actually have the full on-hand roster correctly filled including coaches, etc. Look behind Bautista on the trailer. Is that it?

Dirt kicks up? Weather variance...? Peanuts for $3.50?

# 212 GibsonD90 @ 01/25/12 04:22 PM

The question is.. Will Nem tell us if someone actually finds it?

I am curious as to whether this thread would be half this length if he hadn't claimed that there was more than what we had noticed.

Hype train rolled out after that post.

Best thing about that trailer? The ball hitting the third base bag...that's so awesome

# 214 idesign2 @ 01/25/12 04:27 PM

The only non-gameplay and non-card feature that caught my eye was some odd-looking hats in the crowd at Fenway. It's during the closeup of Gonzalez after the double play. A few in the crowd have hats with yellow bills, but I didn't recognize the team. Are they throwback hats?

I had to shelf MLB '11 - with the new ball physics, it's a whole new game.

And here I thought playing the previous version of The Show after the '10 & '11 Community Day's were tough, lol

Then there's Pulse Pitching... For someone that tried and never got into Analog (except for Fielding - love Analog fielding) I was ready for a change in Pitching (Meter guy)... I fell into Pulse Pitching right away - extremely well done and those that complained about Walks, you'll definitely see them using this pitching method!

I think this game will be the best overall baseball game ever made by Sony. A lot of new animations and cut scenes and equipment will really help add to the realism. I am so pumped for March 6th you wouldn't even believe it. I'm on here every chance i get to check for any new info on this upcoming game!

That's why on the 1st page I asked if this was an old trailer build because alot of the stuff said to be fixed for Yankee Stadium (As seen in the Stadium Upgrades thread) was not infact fixed or shown in the trailer.
At least this is my hope it's an old build, otherwise well....
