Wow.... this is what I needed to watch after a long day of school.. I can't wait at all! February is pretty much over! YES!

I really think they have done a great job this year with postseason. One of my biggest complaint was that the post season never seemed different than the regular season. The videos that have been captured do not do the sound justice. I can't wait to have this on my surround system blaring!!!

I think everyone is going to be very happy when they play through it. So much has been added this year....those that are saying this is 12.5 are dillusional. I feel this may be the biggest year to year jump yet.

Wow..this looks great! I just wish this mode was available for online play where you could play it with your friends. Hopefully next year.

At least teams like the Mets and Mariners can actually be in the playoffs now...

1. Must we fill in all the slots for postseason mode, or can we choose any number of teams? Say I just want to do the CS and WS and skip the DS and WC games.

2. I believe thaSLAB confirmed this; but again... Can we put any team in any slot? Like all AL teams in all the slots? This would make sense when redoing old matchups like the 82 WS or 05 WS with the Brewers and Astros switching leagues.

Not sure about 1 (I think so), but positive for 2 that yeah anybody can go anywhere.

Ahh only with a dedicated postseason mode can yu see Cubs v. Mets NLDS.

'

Hopefully the ramped up presentation in the postseason, doesn't mean the regular season is the same as last year.

i.e. OSD's. Heres to hoping games in may, june, will still see a nice amount of overlays and unique cuts.

as far as the music.
I loved it in the video shown yesterday [nats] and hearing about how it was done deserves kudos from me to SCEA.
Orchestral arrangements?
They didn't need to go that far with the music to appease me, but damn I am glad they did.
that's some serious love they put into it.

YES! Good lookin' with the whole music/orchestra deal. Man this is gonna be sweeeeeet. I hope other games take note. Haven't been this excited for the Show in a few years (my own shortcoming, not the developer's). Yahooooo!

# 12 Bluejaysfan65 @ 02/28/13 10:52 PM

@Bluejay....yeah they said if you reach postseason when in any of the full season modes you still get the presentation. I love the option to just jump in postseason and avenge the A's for last season though. I been beggin for years for postseason mode to replace "rivalry" mode.

I'll be playing this mode first when on Tuesday.

# 17 malky @ 03/02/13 01:21 AM

I'm just happy we finally have a trophy presentation if you win the whole darn thing, hated playing all the games and at the end you get nothing but a group hug, makes playing a full season so much more rewarding
