In MVP 05 you could pick any stadium to play in before your Owner/Season mode games.

I always played Owner mode but played in Wrigley instead of my created stadium.

Hopefully The Show will be the same!

On a side note since the vintage stadium info hasn't been anounced yet, maybe they are adding Single A teams this year for your drafted players!

I hope the vintage stadiums include Tiger Stad. Would love to take BP there and just watch batted balls go flying out.

Maybe, but to get technical, the word vintage usually refers to something from a rather long time ago (old fashioned) so by that definition I would doubt you would refer to these recently defunct stadiums as vintage. I guess we will know for sure real soon since the community guys will be checking out the game first hand next week.

If they really want weather to be dead nuts, let's see some snow for opening day in the midwest

now, that would be really cool!!!!
we dont need actuall snow falling, but to see some gathered snow in the stands, next to the walls and players breath on the cold air would be pretty cool!!!!!

I was looking at the last playstation blog on MLB '09 (the one about the improved AI) and if you read the comments, Chris Gill from the MLB team replied to comment #108 as follows: The post reads: SkoalEdge | January 21st, 2009 at 7:43 am You guys have done a fantastic job with this game. I really didnt think 08 could get much better but I guess it can. Few questions… 1.) Will there be vintage stadiums in the game 2.) Will there be weather? 3.) Are there any expanded perks for road to the show character creation? Chris Gill replied on January 22, 2009 at 1:46 am yes, yes and yes Link to actual post (see comment #108): http://blog.us.playstation.com/2009/...ge-3/#comments This is awesome news!!!

Yes awesome news indeed......good eye Magoo!

Good news. If it's available (and allowed to be used in franchise), I might just be back to playing in the Polo Grounds!

I don't know why I love that stadium so much...
