Re: PS4 Discussion (MLB The Show 14)

Honestly don't understand your comment. Can you clarify?

MLB14 development spread across 3 platforms for 15 hoping they spend a majority of time on the PS4 mainly player models

Ah, got it. Yeah, I hope this isn't the cycle we're looking at. I don't think so, because they did this for '07. So we'll see.

Everything looks good so far. Can't wait to see this in motion.

Yeah I can't imagine that they would "regularly" release the game 1 month into the season. That simply doesn't make sense. It would be like Madden coming out in October every year.

I'm thinking this is the beginning of the MLB late-March release date saga.

With the beards, I'd love the detail if players who signed with the Yankees had to shave them off.

And please God for MLB15 PS4 is priority

You know that's probably not going to happen. It's not their style to abandon the other platforms. Until Sony discontinues PS3 systems/games I don't see SCEA shafting PS3/Vita users just to focus on PS4. We are another 5 years away from that.

Not true at least by the past, MLB 08 became a significant step forward for the series and IMO had the most wow factor for a year to year change.
Just a thought

MLB 08 was a long time ago. They aren't going to abandon the PS3 version. Not anytime in the near future. Ramone himself said the PS3 wont be a paint job every year.

Hey man I feel you on that, but that could very well be a legit time frame weather we all like it or not.

Re: PS4 Discussion (MLB The Show 14)

The PS3 is not the PS2, sales have dropped off a cliff since the PS4 came out. DEC/JAN NPD was dreadful and at this rate the PS3 won't make it to 100 million WW. One of the main reasons the PS2 was supported for so long is because people were still buying it. If I had to guess I'd say Dark Souls II will be the last hurrah, after that next-gen will officially become current-gen.

Also, can we drop the line of thought that Sony can't afford to abandon the PS3 install base because there is more money to be made there compared to the PS4? NBA 2K, Battlefield, Assassin's Creed, Madden, and FIFA sold more on PS4 in January and its not like that's going to change in months and years to come.

tldr; Dev time is precious, don't spend too much time on the dying console!

Yeah, I believe it will still be sold on PS3 and all, but he is obligated as any smart product marketer would be to say it wont be a paint job. Im sure feature wise the PS3 version wont lack, but overall innovation and upgrades it seems fairly obvious the PS4 version of MLB 15 should and most likely will get the bulk of development time.

Im not saying this as a well wisher, it just seems like a fairly easy prediction

You're right it's wise to say that from a marketing standpoint, but Ramone isn't one to mislead people. All i'm saying is you can bet PS3 and Vita versions will get the same amount of time put in as the PS4 version for the next few years.
