MLB '10: The Show Community Preview Event (January 20 and 21st)

04:26 PM - January 15, 2010 by Russell_SCEA

This time last year was first time anyone who doesn't work on the game was allowed to visit our studio and see what goes on behind closed doors with MLB The Show's development team.

Chris Cutliff, Director, of Product Development for MLB The Show thought CD was extremely valuable to our community relations and to the improvement of the franchise. We even had a focus test last year during the cycle. We invited Jim, Pared, Nemesis, Knight, and Brent_Hurst out to participate. They can't talk about the focus test now, but next week I'm lifting the embargo so they can give everyone their thoughts on focus test and if they believe it had an impact on the game.

Next week we are hosting our second Community Preview Event here in San Diego the attendees are the five above with some first timers as well. Brett_OS and bcruise will join the focus test group on next week.

The CPE will be the first hardcore hands on time that anyone has with the game (better get your Q&A's ready).

If I ever saw that in a baseball game, I would have to rush down to Wal-Mart and invest $9.99 in new BVDs.

At about 9:30 this morning, I looked at the clock and thought, instead of doing math I could be checking out the show! Can't wait to hear about everyones day.

The guys are still locked in the room playing the game they don't leave until they can't take it anymore. That could be around 10 or 12am pacific time.

I also don't know how much we are going to let the guys talk about yet that is yet to be determined.

Ouch!! That will probably crush more than a few of us who are waiting here for some answers.

patience is a virtue

if worse comes to worse, we will know everything there is to know on March 2 (or whenever the actual release date is)

Hi... why, is there serious concern that 2ksports programmers would steal some features by implementing them into their 2010 release?

Marketing...they have to release info on their schedule to build anticipation for the game. The more anticipation the more people will talk about the game and the more people will want to buy the game. I assume that's the idea. I doubt they are too concerned about 2k stealing their ideas.

Bullseye.. this is killing me though

# 134 DR Russell @ 01/20/10 10:37 PM

I wonder what build the guys are playing!!!!! 90% build??? 80%???? Can't wait for info. The reason i took the plunge last year was because of the impressions the guys posted after playing the game. I had no idea how great OS until last year.

Seconded! Never any east coast love when it comes to videogame events. Companies love them some west coast.
