MLB 14 The Show Video Comparison Between the PS3 and PS4 Versions

[Cowboy008]

I can tell a difference and just imagine how much better it's going to look when it's on your own television. Watching the videos on youtube won't really show just how much better it looks on PS4.

Why is the PS3 capture so blurry on these comparison shots?

I don't know anyone who owns a PS4 who will decidedly choose the PS3 version over the PS4 version, though. So are you then calling it a "free upgrade" if they both cost $60?

The only issue I have with this video is that they decided to show James Shields hitting AND getting a bomb dropped against him. Way to pick on the poor guy!

Am I the only one though who can't even fathom where they are going to take this franchise in two or three years? I mean look how far they brought the game from '07 to '14 on the ps3.

The difference is REALLY apparent during night games. But I agree. SCEA maybe backing themselves into a corner….WHERE DO THEY GO FROM HERE!!!


I can think of just a few things

1. Fixing online play
2. Cursor hitting
3. more varied swing animations
4. Realtalk post game interviews (like NBA 2K14)
5. Improved trade logic..with user ability to override or confirm any CPU-CPU trades
6. Manager challenges and replay
7. The Show button (allows for fancy fielding play when you hit it i.e. bare hand grab, back hand flip etc)
8. Manager arguments and ejections

none of those things with the exception on #1 is critical. Everything else is not that big of a deal. Name another sports game that only has maybe 1 major and only 7 other minor fixes to make it perfect.

Btw…they probably could add all those things within the next two versions. MLB The Show 16 PS4 might be the perfect baseball game.

There are a few things that are impossible….like naming the players in the minors. Using real life umpires names with their real life tendencies.

The resolution of this video was capped at 720p...at least that was the highest resolution I could select when watching it. (1080p wasn't an available selection) The only fair comparison between the two games would be seeing the PS3 version in 720p and the PS4 version in 1080p.


Even with that in mind...I thought the PS4 version was much more "alive", vibrant, and detailed.

No because it still costs $60 lol. The PS4 version will be an upgrade though, just not free.

What is up with the split leg slide? Seems to be a prominent slide animation, looks painful!
