I'm not trying to be a tool here...but why is everyone praising Sony so much for including licensed equipment? I'm not a fanboy of any company. I just want good games, I don't care who makes them. EA, 2k, heck everyone else, has had this for over a decade now. To me, it was inexcusable not to have it. Especially when they've had the Nike undershirts for 2 years now. They've obviosuly had the license, just been too lazy to implement the gear into the game. I'm glad this is coming. It looked so strange having tv-quality graphics with all generic gear. But, you all know if the roles were reversed and this was EA, everyone would be mocking them for not putting it in the game YEARS earlier.

Having one Nike equipment license did not give them access to all Nike equipment.

Universal Rewards – Simply playing the game earns Stubs that can be spent on licensed equipment, Road to The Show improvements, and virtual baseball cards

So we have to use our stubs to get licensed equipment....?

I'm glad they add realistic things like this, but I personally would rather have alternate uniforms that have been left out and fix the lighting in the ballparks like PNC. How often are you going to actually see the logo on a sneaker or batting glove?

Are we all missing the dugout celebration? Looked pretty cool to me.

I doubt we do for Franchise. Maybe in RTTS we do.

Did anyone else notice Puig had the generic cleats and batting gloves when he was rounding the base?

Very underwhelming reveal trailer. While licensed equipment is great and all, I'd hardly call it a "back of the box" feature in 2015. The graphics don't look like they made the same jump Madden, 2K, etc. have made with their titles.

Guys- it's their first trailer. I bet there's a ton of more info coming in the next couple months.

The fact that Legends got its own tag line is potentially a pretty big deal.

A small observation.... bat boy near the on-deck circle

There are already Bat Boys in MLB 14 The Show.

Do you mean the bat Boys are placed in a more appropriate safe spot?

Legends? So they wasted money on licensing players who probably won't bring in more sales, and who people could just make for free and put in the vault?



Unless there's something more to this, and there very well may be, I'm just not understanding the decision.

Ok so it may not be the game we will see but.....

Visually it hasn't moved on. Player models still the same, uniforms the same and (yes ill say it) grass still same washed out carpet.

Pretty dissapointed with that snippet.

I can't argue with you at all here. I was really disappointed seeing that. I'm hoping this isn't what it will look like since we are so long away from release, but if it is I will be very disappointed. I definitely thought this year the visuals would take a bigger leap over last year, and so far I don't see anything different. I understand the argument of keeping the game at 60 FPS but I would think with the new technology there would be a way to improve the visuals as well. I'm no programming expert though so I can't really comment on the technicalities. It's extremely early though so I won't make big judgements yet, but with this as a first impression I'm not satisfied. It will take some really good gameplay improvements and owner mode improvements to draw me in if these visuals are truly what we will see.

It's sweet they added equipment though. The last baseball game to have that was NCAA 06 if I'm not mistaken. Maybe 2k did but the last three years of that game I didn't play because I got a PS3 for The Show.
